  1. MIG casting
  • Investmenet MIG casting - steel + stainless steel
  • aluminum MIG castign - low temp metals
  1. Standard 3D printing with metal-embedded filament and sintering
  2. ZA alloys on the stovetop + 3D printed molds - automated system for on-demand parts.
  • WAAM - wire arc additive manufacturing in steel, aluminum; MIG and TIG
  • MIM pellet 3D printing filament production
  • High temperature printing chamber (PEEK, PP, PE, etc)
  • Universal Axis Mill and Screw Machine
  • Metal dribble 3D printing - melted metal pool with low temperature alloys? Too experimental, may be excessive
  • Ceramic paste printing + firing. The more flexible version of a potter's wheel.
  • CEB press as aluminum can baler for recycling, 4x6x12 aluminum bricks
  • Small induction furnace, 3kW, for copper and brass?
  • Small induction furnace for softening and forging?
  • Glass 3D printing from recycled powder + induction heater element
  • Induction furnace cement plant from gravel, 3kW.
  • Sintering oven
  • Oxyhydrogen cutting infrastructure
  • Lance oxygen production
  • 3D printed flameware
