Marcin Jakubowski is a farmer (with a useless PhD in fusion energy). When he realized that appropriate, low cost tools to start a sustainable farm did not exist, he set out to build his own, and to make those blueprints available to everyone via a wiki. Soon, contributors from around the world joined in his endeavor to create schematics, 3-D designs and instructional videos for the 50 most important machines for modern civilization - the Global Village Construction Set.

    So cool. No more central control. Yes, let's tell the fascist corps and gov. to leave us alone and build our own zero point energy machines, and hope they don't kill us before everyone is building one - KYI.

    The tools can be made at a fraction of the cost and from materials found locally. MORE OPTIONS, less $$--how great is that!
