What would be the type of equipment and machines to create a mass production factory to produce wood bowls, cups, and eating cutlery? Any keywords to the equipment and machines would be very appreciated.


I live in a mostly Cedar + mixed forest mountain town in Japan. Logging is nearly dead and we have too many trees which creates landslides and all sorts of unhealthy side effects for the forest.


I am trying to create a presentation to the local Government to setup a small factory to help the town to create mass produced bowls and cups, etc. and thus stimulate the economy with jobs and export. Clearly the cost will be higher than doing this out of Burma or similar country. My guess is we will be in the middle market where the end-buyer wants to support buying Japanese made products.
Thanks!
