I mentioned over here that I'd like to build a little underground alchemy lab, someday. I wanted to have a freestanding cauldron that I could use (because they look cool, is why!) and some other folks seemed to like that idea.
But then - why stop at cauldrons? Most of the tools we carry around could easily be set on surfaces and used that way. Someone could make a kitchen with blenders, grills, awesome pots. Or a refinery with a row of smelters. And sometime, someday, I am sure there would be a pile of broken blenders and bubble tuners in a mad scientist's lab.
Now that we can bounce /home whenever we need to, it doesn't much make sense to carry a home and hardware store around. Set the tools free!
