The book repair operation is not dependent on heavy equipment or complex space configurations. The standard bench can be used by at least three technicians if need be. The bench is used for all repair work, but the work flows better if there is also a counter adjacent to the group to accommodate some tasks. This saves actual processing space on the bench. Aside from small tools, the only power equipment might be a small electrical drill with a bit roughly the diameter of the sewing needle. This can speed up the hole piercing needed for overcasting.
