Subject: Re: advice on free stuff
Regarding free & cheap stuff:
I got free liquid nitrogen from a welding shop in San Leandro -- had to
bring my own container, and had to call a few places before I found one
that had the facilities to distribute small amounts.
I got a class set of free small plastic mirrors from TAP plastics. I had
heard if you call and let them know what you need they will save scraps for
you ... however, I'm not sure if this is company policy or just a kind
employee, so be careful!
I'm sure you already know about the East Bay Depot for Creative Reuse, but
for anyone who doesn't it's a mini-RAFT type place and is located in
Berkeley on San Pablo between Ashby and Alcatraz ... lots of cheap paper,
containers, office supplies, fabric scraps, plastic whatsits, etc.
