Workshop - not producing anything at all

Solution 1:

Make sure that you have:

• Workshop presses (to stamp the plates)
• Workshop saws (to cut the metal)
• Generic tables (to store the materials and completed license plates)
• Workshop safety courses, that prisoners are enrolled, and you have someone teaching it

If you have a bunch of wood in the shop, it may be clogging up the room, preventing them from making license plates. Metal is used to make license plates; wood is used to make bed frames. This would especially be the case if you don't have a carpentry class, so no one knows what to do with the wood. Selling or trashing the wood might be a good idea, so metal can be brought in to make license plates.
