I live in Houston, so it is more feasible for me than for most, but I tried to leave the location vague for discussion purposes.
Bringing some manufacturing capacity back to the regional level is exactly my objective. Specifically, product runs on the order of 5000 units, with a modest bill of materials, using open specs that lend themselves to lower cost redesign and re-purposing.
