"Beautiful, Functional Objects"
At the Business Incubator, couches, tables and chairs offer hotdesking space for individual or group work. Discussing a project in this area tends to attract attention, and random people will wander over to join the discussion if it piques their interest. Early-staged projects often get discussed in the open areas precisely because it invites other members to share their ideas or resources, improving the chances of success.
Read about belt sanders.
Some but not all drills are good for driving screws.
Explore CNC router bits. They come in many shapes, and that determines what kind of carving they can do.
The Hexileaf CNC router came with sets of:
* Drill bits
* Spiral end mills
* V groove router bits
Kitt and Kat look at:
* Ball nose bits (leave for Jocelyn Wright to buy)
* Corn teeth end mills (which Kat buys)
* Surface milling bits (which Kitt buys)
* Three-dimensional irregular router bits (leave for others)
There are many styles of tool carts and rolling cabinets.
CNCat is the more developed partnership line of products with greater refinement and detailing.
This unit is designed as a litterbox cabinet, but can also be used as a cat bed. The upper level can be an open shelf like this, or a drawer. It has diverse options for trim, handle(s), and paint or stain color.
This cat tower has 3 stories.
The entertainment center is modular so it can be built in different configurations with open or closed cubicles.
This bedroom piece combines a human bed with a cat tower. The bed comes in twin or full size mattresses. It can be set up as a single low, single loft, or bunk bed (twin, full, or twin over full). The cat tower may be placed on one, two, or three sides. Various sizes and shapes of cutout holes and steps are available. The top frame comes with a choice of wide or narrow walkways, a downward-facing mirror, a human hammock net, or various styles of cat hammock.
