Problem Statement

Fabrication and prototyping using non-standard components can make design sharing and design modification costly and increase the cost of trial and error.

Tool Approach

This tool aims to identify the various standards and systems to enable rapid changes in design, ease of reuse of components and reduced manufacturing cost and cost of specialized inventory

Modular Building Systems

The following are examples of modular building systems and standards that might be useful to the Farm Hack community
