For easy removal of parts, partially-glued PEI system allows for extremely easy part removal. Parts can be redesigned for easy removal, with a wedge-creator or other part that allows for easy bump-off. In the brute force scenario - platforms are used to minimize bed contact area.

A 3D printing cluster can be a lucrative, automated business opportunity to provide a [[Guaranteed Basic Income]]. The printing service is:

#Fully automated
#Web interface allows for print ordering, from a selection of proven offerings.
#People don't print their own designs - but they can rent print time by the hour from our cluster.
#Cluster operates on our own 3D printing filament (recycled, and 100% PV powered). Marketed as the world's first eco-3D-Printing service - which cleans up the environment by recycling plastic, and uses 100% solar energy.
#Harvesting robot harvests prints automatically
#Packaging robots packages things automatically.
#Carefully curated 3D print offering provides high quality parts.

=Robotic Packaging=
*prints are placed inside universal size baskets, and closed off.
*Label is placed automatically on the package.
*Boxes are lined up, ready to be taken to the post office
*Mailman picks up packages daily - so no trip to the post office needs to be taken.

=Construction Set Approach=
*Packaging and labeling is part of a universal system relevant to any product - such as machined parts, electronics, etc.
