Last year I was looking for DIY techniques for waterproofing camping gear and I found this vidy about 'welding' rip-stop nylon. After this I had a few days of daydreaming about making backpacking and camping equipment. I would add 'textiles' to the list of garage-doable manufacturing. You need sewing machine, workbench, and other hand tools.
The thing I got stuck on was inventory. You need to have raw materials (either buying in bulk or buying bulk when you get a good deal) and unless you're MTO, you're keeping inventory. That fills up space and ties up your cash. Not a fun daydream after that point.
For the adventure seekers among us who like to prototype their own gear I found the link: https://youtu.be/Ne2J01h1tZ0 https://youtu.be/Ne2J01h1tZ0
