When Garages Become Factories

What if the most revolutionary manufacturing plant in the world isn't in China - it's in someone's garage down the street? In 1926, a Swiss immigrant named Fred Hauser turned his Los Angeles garage into an inventor's workshop, tinkering with an automatic sprinkler system while working at MGM Studios. His breakthrough earned him patent #2311108, but the gap between invention and entrepreneurship was vast. Without manufacturing capabilities, he had to license his idea to Moody, surrendering control for royalties. Fast-forward to today: you can redesign that same sprinkler as "OpenSprinkler" - internet-connected, smartphone-controlled, open-source - and bring it to market for under $5,000. The kit now sells for $79.95, a fraction of proprietary systems. This collapse of barriers between idea and product isn't just convenient - it's rewriting the rules of who gets to make things and how wealth gets created. Nearly a thousand "makerspaces" now exist globally - Shanghai alone is building one hundred. These aren't just hobbyist hangouts; they're the infrastructure of a new industrial age. What makes this movement transformative isn't the tools themselves but three converging forces: digital desktop tools that let anyone design and prototype, a culture of sharing designs online, and common file standards that turn a bedroom sketch into a factory-ready blueprint. This isn't nostalgia for craftwork - it's manufacturing meeting the internet's DNA.
