Need ideas for Parts Exchange Board

[Chris Gilmer]

I want to build and operate a parts exchange board for this
community. I tossed this idea around on another post while looking
for used extruders and got a few takers. Would this interest more
people? And what would be important to users if I did get this thing
going? The worst is to start building something without any customer
feedback.

Here's what I'd like to see:
- What kind of bots you have (with modifications)
- A list of what extra parts you have lying around
- A list of parts you're looking for
- A list of parts you're willing to exchange
- A way to message users
- A link to your Thingiverse profile

Any other thoughts?

I think it'd be great. I just had a tough time sourcing bushings.

And here I am with 4 never used ToM bushings (the adjustable ones)
and another 10 taken out of service. Might not be the ones you were
looking for, but like many I have ToM and Cupcake parts I doubt I
will ever use.

I have 12-15 of the old extruder motors i bought directly from kysan.
I will probably never use them so I would definatly be willing to sell
them if anyone actualy wanted them. though I would personaly recomend
just printing out a stepper extruder anyway.

Alright, sounds like at least a few people are interested. I'll try
to whip something up. I'll post it here when its done.

too bad they couldn't integrate a for sale board on thingiverse.
