Yep we have admired his craftsman skills before.
Not sure how valid his experiment is but it was cool to watch.

I only know what 75% of those toys (I mean tools) he's using are, but they sure like like fun to play (I mean work) with! The man certainly has a well stocked toolbox full of skills! Having access to a bunch of cool equipment doesn't hurt, either! HMM, I have a friend who markets high tech, industrial vacuum pumps (he says his job sucks) I should pick his brain a little.

These are great videos. Very entertainable and somewhat educative.
I also enjoy videos where this process happens on a largely automated assembly line. Now sombody built those machines and got them working flawlessly with tight tolerances, great speed and everything. Now that's craftmanship too.
