Prototypes Brief

1-CNC Torch Table - Gecko G540 as in existing CNC Torch Table Prototype I. Add Router Module and Laser Module + 3D Printing Module for large-scale objects.
- 1'-Hadden Engine - if negotiated
- 1'-Dobson Gasifier - if negotiated
- 1'-CNC Multimachine - if negotiated
- 2-Microtractor - small version of tractor, no new tech
- 3-Backhoe - see Backhoe Log for latest version - 50% of design done, needs BOM

- 4-Bulldozer - same as tractor frame requires Geardown Module and 6 Way Blade Module
- 5-Ironworker Machine - see Tractor Construction Set/Scalable Ironworker Machine
Car
- 6-50 hp Power Cube - would be good also for bulldozer; needs addition of hydraulic drive to mechanical drive
- Car - see Team Wikispeed TEDx talk and Wikispeed Modularity - use their steering + suspension on the front, our suspension on rear drive wheel.
- Truck + Trucktor - similar to tractor frame - add MacPherson Strut Module.

Rapid Prototyping. Modify for a combination 3D Printer - Circuit Mill - Laser Cutter? - 3D Scanner?.
- 3D Printer - Lulzbot. 3D Printer Productization Assessment.

working candidate prototype. CNC Circuit Mill Productization Assessment

Steam Engine - Hadden Engine - just assess and hire machinist. Do it at Factor e Farm for video. Requires assessment and negotiation.
Heat exachanger - see Dobson Heat Exchanger. Requires assessment and negotiation.

Electrical grid - buried cable
1 or more CEB/WikiHouse houses to be built to satisfy Kickstarter reward and to provide at least 1 staff house. See Microhouse 2013 Discussion.
Cleanup
Biogas Digester
