One prominent member of reading maker space (RHS) put something like 20K
in (upfront)! Starting a hackspace is not easy or cheap! And some of the tools
at Reading are seriously impressive!

Another item is that RHS hodl an open eveing on weds and offer a pay as you use
option - IIRC correctly you pay a fiver for each (non member) visit - but
dont take my word on that as I am not a member.
