All of technology can be summarized to:

  1. Bulk structures - dirt and wood
  2. Metal and plastic - precise shapes.
  3. 3D Printing - plastic, metal, and stone (ceramic, house concrete, mud)
  4. Rotor - shaft, 2 bearings, and a coupler. All rotor heads.
  5. Metal sheet, wire, tube - hot metal
  6. Alloying - metal and plastic
  7. Piston - linear motion. Engine, pump. Hydraulic, air, material.
  8. Electric wire - induction for furnace or motor; or solenoid; or injector. Highest tech is high pressure injector.
  9. Microcontroller and transistor - for timing. Controlling a 10kW motor with an Arduino.
