Re: [DIYbio] if one want to set up a small molecular bio lab plus small pre-scale plant.....

It's really easy to spend money on new lab equipment when it's not
your own money. I went to a public college and rented space from a
private college and their budgets were mandated to be spent each year,
or the money was taken back, and their budget was cut as they
obviously "didn't need it". So, they could never save over a
multi-year period for a large purchase like an LCMS or nice piece of
equipment, so they'd just buy lots of small things like vortexers,
water baths, pipettes, gel boxes, etc, to use up their budgetary
spending for the year, and it just piles up in boxes. The way the
budget was handled 100% pushed wasteful unnecessary spending, but
that's academia, at least at a public school.
