Here is a wish list for items of equipment and tools which we would love to have donated to help us get going on producing carts.  If you have any of them and are willing to donate them, let us know.  If you need to have them picked up, let us know that as well.  They need to be in good working order and have all factory safety features attached.  For materials, we need good quality 1x6x12 pine boards, as many as possible, up to a pallet load.
