Think: a crafting table, with the ability to request items so you can stay on one GUI and be able to craft and request.

I like the idea 👍

Me too. Already had some situations where this would have been useful.

i propose changing a logistics crafting table also changes an attached crafting pipe
that way a "craft now" button can be added to the LACT, which will cause it to pull from the network and do a craft to its own inventory

👍

Might be made with a button leading to the Reques GUI.

The LCT should not have manual crafting. Also that means it will request everything from the crafting pipe, even if you have the things in it's inventory.

Added.
