[olug] Misc. hardware.......... and what to do with it

[Craig Wolf]

Jay, that is a great idea!  (I am biased because he is close.)  :) 
Seriously though, that would be good.  We could have a Sat. start
day...everything needs to be in by that day and THEN you can start
buying/picking up the freebies that way it is fair to all.  It goes for
2 weeks or 1 week to be respectful to Jay and his location...

Anyone want to "second the motion"?

I could either clear out some projects off of the tables upstairs and 

you could lay the stuff out there, or we could do a saturday swap-meet 

with some tables outside in front, and you man your own stuff.

We could tape off the tables upstairs into sections with a note with  
name/pricing for stuff you want to sell, and a free table for
giveaways.

I could leave the tables open for a few weeks, and then you could have 

the option to pick up stuff leftover, or I could send it off to my  
recycler.
