One of the most important questions, which I remember discussing with Jim
Newton and Dale Dougherty shortly before TechShop Detroit opened, is
whether the space is primarily about the tools or about the community.
Community without tools is still useful, but less so the other way around.
Community takes less money to maintain, but more work, although if you do
it right, that work can be fun and meaningful for members.
