Amazing!, looking forward to the tire machine. If you make the tire machine, you're going to need to make a balancer too

Not any more complex than an air compressor, a welder, lift, sand blaster, wash tank, tool boxes and working cabinets. I'm pretty sure with your background and skill, you'll be able to accomplish the task
