What do we do with the parts that no-one (seems) to want ?
Well, over the last 6 months that i have been either lurking or participating in this forum, it seems that some stuff is getting chucked out when there is no apparent interest in or need for an item (or inconvenient to sell on/package up etc)
From experience over the last 8 months i have been researching and collecting parts for a MsPacman cocktail, and the only reason i have been successful in collecting such parts is the willingness of collectors to retain even the insignificant parts.
So my thought is this - what if the unwanted parts went into a parts library that people could access when needed ? a recent example of this is pacman filter boards. maybe instead of binning them, send them to the parts library so that in the future when someone needs one, and they cant find one, they can ask the library ... A library could also be a list of stuff people have repaired that may be availalble for fixing a game for a collector in need...
just a thought! what do people think ?
