Ash my thoughts on a commune: Communes are an interesting concept, the major problem with them in the past is it seems to many of the people that want to join a commune also do not want to work. In my case I have had both knees replaced and an injury from childhood that has resulted in a naturally fused back and a vertebra that likes to be difficult.. result.: I work very carefully .. though When I am totally retired I will have some where around 40,000 INR or 480,000 INR per year and you and I know that is not very much money. I am not opposed to the idea. I also have on going medical problems that I have to deal with and are not going away.
Also it could very well be advantageous to your work shops. That would take a lot of planning My original idea was find myself a small flat or (house) 2 rooms plus kitchen and bathroom and electricity, plus internet. the idea being able to hire someone to care for my house. When I needed heavy work to be done hire ome of the localsthat could use some employment and supervise them. The problem beingI amnot as old as I once was. Please bear in mind at one time I was twenty years of age. Starting off I might be able to come down for several months of extended vacation, one day need a rabbit hole to disappear into but that is to be seen and I really don't totally know what is happening. who knows I may .that totally depends on the Father Creator.
