Good idea. They produce over 600K M3 (Grease Guns) for WWII as well as planes and other war items. They also helped to develop the heart blood bypass pump. They also develop great ideas for vehicles too!

Yep and they can do it again hers how they helped win the Second World War.
The auto industry retooled to manufacture tanks, trucks, jeeps, airplanes, bombs, torpedoes, steel helmets, and ammunition under massive contracts issued by the government. Beginning immediately after the production of automobiles ceased, entire factories were upended almost overnight. Huge manufacturing machines were jack hammered out of their foundations and new ones brought in to replace them. Conveyors were stripped away and rebuilt, electrical wires were bundled together and stored in the vast factory ceilings, half-finished parts were sent to steel mills to be re-melted, and even many of the dies that had been used in the fabrication of auto parts were sent to salvage. We’re it was reused in the making of tanks and planes and ships.
You can make an at home one with a big balloon, that is one the emergency first aid res ponders use until they can find an automatic one. Someone has to keep putting air in the balloon and then attach it to the mask. I would buy that one if you are at home and may need it.

Why not just use a compressor with a sealed mask and a regulator.
I can make a ventilator using a air bag with air valves for a one way in one way out airflow and a motor with a timer and/or limiting switches and polarity reversal capability to inflate a air bag to push air in stop momentarily and push air in again. It won’t be anything special but it will push air in and out. It’s just a pump. Granted it would be pretty rudimentary but it will work.
You can also use a apnea machine. That has constant positive air flow to push air into the lungs
BY the time any heavy industrial plant could be re-tooled to mass-produce ventilators (or any similar goods) I suspect that the "target market" would have died anyway; core industrial processes can't be changed that quickly.

I would think a cpap machine could be used to help those with less severe respiratory issues, thus leaving the modern respirators for those in dire condition.
I know if I dial mine up it can really push the air to you.
All that is part of the main plan, how to return production back to the country.
Now, under virus pretext, country is forced to do so. Instead of waiting on cheap products from you know where. Go back to in-house manufacturing. Restore the marque. Return to actual production, instead of making money out of thin air via financial schemes.
