Starting a 3d Print Farm - Building Ideas

I am retiring from my second career in about 3 years and I am developing a plan to build a workshop that will contain a print farm.  I have a wide variety of printers.  I currently have 3 Resin Printers and 24 FDM (13 Prusas and 11 printers from other manufacturers).  I have them currently between two rooms in a workshop setting but want to building a workshop that purpose build for my needs.  

My goal is to keep my life organized and to have a side gig to supplement my retirement.  

Has anyone done this and do you have a design / plan you can share?  Any tips?

I'm pretty sure you can handle the technical side and, if necessary, get any business advice needed but:  Remember to build enough slack into the plan (and perhaps a part-time employee) so that you can take time off to enjoy your retirement, go on a few trips and have some well earned retirement rest - and fun.

Cheerio,
