Here is how America can get its multi-billion dollar furniture industry back. Instead or competing with labor costs, out produce them with technology.

Gotta get me one of these for my cutting room

I'm opting for the coal fired model.

Let's see what that machine does when you give it 5 yards of flawed crap from JoAnns (and you need 6 to do the job).

It'll probably start smoking, and nuts and bolts will fly off of it.

This technology has been in development sometime, the study and development is/was available for reading at one of t he east coast universities.  I had the experience of reading about it. 

It and the associated developments will put America back into the furniture manufacturing business as well as others as the developments are adaptable to other industries dealing with cutting shapes, etc.  Interesting reading.

It will revolutionize things, the aftermarket (custom) will be put further back into the old age of doing things.  We won't resemble ourselves today.

I wonder what the get going cost will be?

The concept of small business has just got larger.

If starting over, I would strive for one of those small business - that uses equipment like we read and see here (high tech).
