We both know that approximately 24 hours after donating something he will BADLY need it for an unexpected repair.

  Then he can borrow it from the library he donated it to :)

    I'm always worried that some less skilled user will have broken or not maintained it. I don't know how maker spaces get around this

      Usually they have volunteers who do maintenance. At my local tool library the tools are well-used, but there's also like 10 of everything so you have lots of backup options.

      most places i’ve borrowed things will seek some basic assurances that i know what i’m doing, first. for example, when i borrowed a MIG welder, the person at the space asked me to weld some scrap metal in front of them before they let me loose with it.
