Thanks for your comment, Alpha1243!

There can always be discussion about definitions, for instance, the mine is a production building according to this wiki, but it is not part of the 35 unique machines you (and I) count. I see a production building as a building with a queue (with 1 to 9 slots). On the other hand, this difference is totally unimportant.

I like counting to

- check the 'exhaustive listing of everything' :-);

- check my own listings with this wiki;

- answer questions like 'how big has my barn to be to store 10 of each item'.
