My father is currently living in London so I’m quite familiar with the area. I’ve always liked it, and Kingston, but as I addressed above moving right now would wreak havoc on our bank balance. SWMBO would also have to take additional courses to teach in Ontario or BC IIRC. I’m doing an analysis of starting a [maker space](https://www.webopedia.com/definitions/makerspace/) with laser cutters and enterprise quality 3d printers and configuring it so customers could build by submitting files remotely along with remote payment so lockdowns are less of an issue. I also considered the possibility of having businesses rent 3-d printers/cutters for prototyping. I’ll have to look at legalities and liabilities if I go through with this path.
