Quick chime in - I just checked McMaster to see if there were any cheaper two way spring closing hinges. Maybe McMaster part number <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; ">14905A41 will work? Check it out. $16 apiece. A little better. There's some more there - I'm just chiming in with no idea what the space even looks like, so maybe they won't work.</span><div>

<br>(Didn't want to derail, so continue talking about the shop -- just saying I like the idea of at least one door on the shop for an entirely different reason. I'm in for money to make this happen, but probably not much in the way of door smarts)<div>

I bet if we bought doors for the shop, a lot of these problems would be solved. The reason that there are no doors on the shop is that we had envisioned "hospital doors" for the double-doorway there which swung in and out and then swung back to closed automatically; unfortunately, those hinges cost like $50 each (and it takes 3 per door), so I never bought them. Anybody who wants to investigate cheaper options, that doorway is sized for a set of double doors.<div>

As long as we are talking about big work solutions... We move the shop to Church classroom which has an exterior window. We could then completely close that space with full walls and a closing door.<br>

For my part, I'm willing to put up with the dust and with the noise. This whole discussion seems to imply that the rest of Noisebridge is clean and there aren't disturbing noises, (for example useless jabbering). Maybe there was 1 day that Noisebridge was clean and the only noise was productive. I wasn't here that day.<br>

It's a hackerspace, which means that noise and dirty comes with the territory.
