By odd coincidence, I've just started looking for rental space to move my
basement workshop and sci/electronics library.  I was hoping to find
others who need a similar rental, so we could start one big hobbyist shop
rather than scattered tiny ones.  The south part of Savey Brewery
(Bottling plant) looks good.

So, anyone else have $500/mo for long-term shop rental?  A handful of
people putting up $500/each could form an unchanging "core" to keep a
large space open, with miscellaneous members adding their $10-$20/month
(but not guaranteed.)   One thing we don't want is being short on the rent
every time membership gets a bit low.

Too bad the brewery Malt House building isn't offering live-in space as
yet.  They list that for future expansion.
