Prototypes Brief
- CNC Torch Table - Gecko G540 as in existing CNC Torch Table Prototype I. Add Router Module and 3D Printing Module for large-scale objects.
- Bulldozer - same as tractor frame requires Geardown Module and 6 Way Blade Module
- Truck - similar to tractor frame - add Stephenson Strut Module.
- Microtractor - small version of tractor, no new tech
- Backhoe - see Backhoe Log for latest version - 50% of design done, needs BOM
- Car
- 150 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
- Rapid Prototyping. Modify for a combination 3D Printer - Circuit Mill - Laser Cutter? - 3D Scanner?.
- 3D Printer - Lulzbot. Hire a weenie.
- CNC Circuit Mill - Shapeoko is a good working candidate. Hire a weenie.
- Laser Cutter - Lasersaur is to be improved upon. Hire a weenie.
- 3D Scanner - build on existing Open Source Laser Scanners; hire a weenie
- Steam Engine - Hadden Engine - just assess and hire machinist. Do it at Factor e Farm for video. Requires assessment and negotiation.
- Heat exachanger - see Larry_Dobson-_Gassifer/Boiler. Requires assessment and negotiation.
Prep
- Electrical grid - buried cable
- New Housing?
- Cleanup
- Biogas Digester
Strategy
- Video (sketch tablet + animation + icons) explainer on plan by Rob Kirk
- Sketchup -> 2 Laser Cutter -> CNC Torch Table, or Sketchup -> 3x 3D Printer -> CNC Torch Table; also, CNC Circuit Mill to copy all electronics
- See Modularity for general pattern language
