>Maybe the Principal Overseer should appoint one or two member minions

There is no overseer at syn/hak. We've been trying to steer ourselves away
from centralizing power to a few individuals, though its usually the same
individuals who step up to task on a regular basis. Any member of Syn/Hak
can accept or decline a donation but as Joe said, we don't know what others
need. So there is now a page on our wiki where members can list needed
items for their projects at https://www.synhak.org/wiki/Wishlist.

Things like that soldering bench are also pleasant surprises as I've been
meaning to re-organize the electronics lab, those shelves might actually
come in handy with that too.
