Larger laser cutter
Submitted by Lior Trestman on Wed, 05/12/2021 - 1:14pmIt would be great to have a larger laser, a more powerful laser, and a fiber laser (which can mark metal). This laser is expensive, but it checks all of those boxes: The Epilog FusionPro 48 Dual (120W CO2/50W Fiber). It has lots of great features (https://www.epiloglaser.com/laser-machines/fusion-pro-laser-series.htm), and a cut area of 48" x 36".
New Vacuum Former
Submitted by Lior Trestman on Wed, 05/12/2021 - 1:02pmOur vacuum former leaves a lot to be desired. This one (similar to what they have at Sacred Heart) has many capabilities that enable it to produce much better results: https://www.formechdirect.com/product/508fs/

Large 3D Printer
Submitted by Lior Trestman on Wed, 05/12/2021 - 12:56pmHaving the ability to print large parts would be great. The Gigabot 3+ (what they have at Sacred Heart) is a good option: https://shop.re3d.org/products/gigabot

Rotary table with 3-jaw chuck
Submitted by Andrew Suzuki on Sat, 04/24/2021 - 3:16pmFor milling circular features on the Bridgeports.
Should be able to mount on the bottom or side.
Price is for a new Shars 8" rotary table with 3-jaw chuck, but from their ebay store (cheaper): https://www.shars.com/8-h-v-rotary-table-with-8-3-jaw-chuck
Or, could wait and find a good deal on a used one for less.
