3 More Prusas
Though the Prusa hasn't been perfect, that's largely because people have been using Octopi slicer. By using the Prusa slicer it seems to work flawlessly. It makes great prints, and is a great price compared to comparable machines. It would be great for our PLA 3d printers to be consistent.
Upgraded Vertical Milling Machine
Our Tormach is decent, but not great. The Tormach 1100mx, a Haas, or something similar would be a huge improvement.
Shapeoko Upgrade
The Shapeoko gets lots of use, but can be pretty frustrating. Upgrading to the OneFinity, X-Carve, or something similar could improve its functionality and usability.

Upgraded Heat Press
I'd love to see a sturdier heat press, and ideally one that is larger. This was mentioned by Lior: https://cricut.com/en_us/cricut-easypress though I think an even larger one could be cool if it could be used for mounting photos and heat vinyl.OOOH this one does s ublimation for mugs!
Dough Sheeter
Ever have the hunkering to make a large batch of tortillas?? How about homemade croissants? Roll out some pizza dough? We have a pasta roller, but the limited width makes it hard to do large batches or laminated dough. There are some nice tabletop 19" versions on etsy! Or some ambitious person could make one??!?
