Do-it-yourselfers have made everything from bamboo bicycles to 3-D printers, but nothing as ambitious as what's happening on a farm in northwest Missouri where tractors and other industrial machines are being made from scratch.
Sort of like every other tractor and industrial machine is made.

semantics. obviously by "from scratch" they mean without prior experience or blueprints. when caterpillar makes a tractor they don't do it "from scratch" like these guys are doing it.
