Cool thing about these machines is that they make HUGE cuts in a single pass. So the bit that's turned into the hex goes from the 5/8" (~16mm) material to finished size (6 or 8mm depending on which side) in a single pass. That's one man sized cut! Pretty cool to watch them in action.
The limpest.

Too busy with product testing. Two races down and it's still on one piece. Considering it was never meant to be a race bike, it turned out light(-ish) and strong. The rider, neither of those things.

No trick, only treats. Check out that halloween cat that showed up in this random up-skirt shot on a freshly cleared T5.

Clearing silver is like pissing in a can in pitch dark from 10 feet away. At least for this blind guy.
