One of my favorite questions is, "Can you use this?" I almost always answer, "Yes," even if I am not sure what the this is. This makes for a hodge-podge of materials or, as one person said, "Wow, this art room gives new meaning to the word organic!"
And then there are those who have treasures to share- people like Shelly Bluhm. Shelly recently asked if I could use her potter's wheels (two kick-wheels). Of course I said yes.
