because it seems like there is no clear boundary. If I purchased a steel mill and was the sole oener/operator is that personal property? what if it is only used for hobby projects and not for profit?

    No it's private property you're a petty bourgeois/small proprietor.

    what if it is only used for hobby projects and not for profit?

    If you're not selling what you make it's personal property.
