Hello Far McKon!
I liked your comment at [[Talk:Global Village Construction Set#Toys]]. I love the OSE project very much and I am very enthusiastic about it. I am also a [[True Fan]] and I already made sizable donations for the project. But I think the project is not designed with efficiency in mind. Creating some home appliances would make the project to be extremely successful in a very short time. It would bring a lot of needed cash in a very short time and it would make the project known to almost everyone in the world. Almost every family in this world needs a washing machine, a refrigerator, a stove, etc. I expressed my opinion at [[Talk:Rollout Plan#The plan is not efficient!]] discussion page and on the forum at [http://forum.opensourceecology.org/discussion/449/open-source-home-appliances Open source home appliances] thread.
I was thinking, in case we feel similar, maybe we can have some useful chat about the issue. Thanks. [[User:Gonzo|Gonzo]] 21:28, 25 February 2012 (CET)

Below is my running list of things missing from the Global Village Construction Kit which I believe are need for a functional village, but are not included in this wiki (yet).

Mostly these are things I have searched for, and am kind of depressed there is no page for. As a non-contributor, I was not comfortable making pages for these, since I assume they will be not maintained or updated.


Things This Village Is Missing That Make Me Cry

  • Sewing Machine - Seriously. Working on a CNC Mill is no fun naked.
  • Washing Machine - Also seriously. One of the most labor-saving devices in America.
  • Loom - Working on a CNC Mill is no fun naked. Like I said
  • Clayworks - Tools for Jar/Pot/Dishware arts Clay throwing, firing
  • Glasswork (Dishware, Windows, etc)
  • Leather/Plastic work tools - For durables like Leather or stiff plastics.
  • Grain Mill - This one makes me want to cry. Tractor? Check. Baler/Thresher? Check. Bread Oven? Check. A way to turn grain into flour for the bread oven? Nope.


Feel free to add to this, my personal list of overlooked (and mayhaps unsexy) technologies needed to keep a sustainable village running.

Toys for Boys

Hello Far McKon! I liked your comment at Talk:Global Village Construction Set#Toys. I love the OSE project very much and I am very enthusiastic about it.
