Online Sales Hub
A website for selling creative products and services of the community or home, linked with other like communities. Art pieces could be 3d printed or cast from plastic or other materials, and lithophane prints allow for various imagery to be manufactured and sold with minimal labor. Artists are able to build an online portfolio and fulfill orders without significant effort in making duplicates of existing pieces. Large libraries of 2d work can be made available as 3d prints via lithophane. Designs can be printed on t-shirts, and flexible filament allows fabrication of other items such as custom shoes.

3D FDM Printer
Able to easily replicate complex designs or provide models for cast or mold making. Relatively cheap and simple to operate, small scale components are cheap(ish). Large scale may be possible.

Cut Table
A medium-large format table able to accommodate various tools such as a router, laser cutter/engraver, or welder. Can be used for fabricating many parts at fairly high speed with good precision, speeding up and reducing costs of other projects.

Multimachine
A multi-purpose milling, lathing, drilling and grinding machine with potential for many other options. Relatively cheap to build and quite powerful. Can be used to fabricate many difficult to manufacture parts of high strength.

Fabric Cutter
A large table with fabric cutting wheel or other suitable blade (laser or waterjet? vibratory wire?) and variable geometry clamping mechanism to hold fabric in place while cutting.

Stitching Machine
An as-yet not apparently in operation machine, involving a holding mechanism which grips multiple pieces of fabric on cut-off tabs used during manufacture, a dexterous gripping mechanism that moves along an edge, aligning fabric while holding it in place, then removing pressure and extracting the mechanism from the stitch after a rotary needle threads through the layers of fabric.
