People interested

•  Strong support for w:open hardware projects, as seen in covid19 masks. It could be called WikiHard(ware) --BoldLuis (talk) 22:25, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
•  Oppose I think this could be stored on Wikibooks. Tinker Bell (talk) 03:32, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
•  Strong support for Open collaborative manufacturing platform. wikifactory.com achieves the same purpose but is not under wikimedia. The platform should also host files for CNC, CAD, CAM, 3D printing, etc. and should allow collaborative product design and development -Vis M (talk) 12:14, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

•  Oppose - I think creating something on Wikiversity, including exploring "lab" ideas and creative commons house building designs, etc stored on wikicommons linked to it. Then this can be built up and if more space/ dedicated platforming is needed, then discussion on expanding can take place. Similar to WikiWorks Jamzze (talk) 16:17, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
