Post subject:  Ausmini needle swap?

I was changing the needle on the car today and it got me thinking.

There probably a lot of people like me here, a few needle in the shed, but you would like to try a different one. $15 or $20 a needle is quite a expense for some testing.

So what about we help each other, trade a needle that you don't need anymore for something you would like to try.

So i have a ABW and a ADF and i am looking for a AAU.

Might be a good way to use Ausmini!!!!

Anyway, just a tought :P

great idea.
I wish that I had kept them all now.

For it to work this needs to be a sticky under MiniMods I guess

I've thought about starting a "needle bank"... I have a few sets for twins

Louis, out of curiosity, are your needles the type that has a spring to centre them?

I thought it is a case of " I am all for it but not near my house"

Just putting this out there...

How about one person "the Banker" maintains the bank. So whenever someone wants to swap needles they send their needle to the banker with a $1 coin (to cover return postage and the bankers time) and then the banker sends back the exchange needle.
A locked post could be set on the forum detailing how many needles of each type are available...

Or the charge could be $2 and the extra dollar of each is put towards restocking the popular needles...

Of course this requires some generous people to donate their spare needles to start with, maybe they could have a needle credit for this...

I would be happy to volunteer as the first "banker" to get the show running... This also requires the permission of the Ausmini gods
