Ain't it amazing how beautiful a piece of metal can be

[ravensmansand]

This dude lined up the particles on an atomic level for it to look that flawless

[CDRaff]

I have said this several times when looking at modern high tolerance machining, but it bears repeating: There was a time, not too long ago, when the idea of machining metal to these tolerances was literal science fiction. It was a hallmark of the genre to say something about how the alien craft was so well made that when the door on the exterior opened it "came from nowhere" because it was completely seamless.

Single spec of rust: "oh yea?!"

[Angel_Love]

I Imagine this is how Transformers hide their transformation gaps or lines during vehicle mode.

[weaselodooms]

The fact that they have a negative part, and then have to mill a positive part from another block of metal and it matches this well makes it even more impressive.

[MaximilianonMars]

That dude is crazy strong and talented to pull that metal apart like that and leave each half more beautiful than in the beginning.

[MurdersMachine]

People legitimately think we couldn't recreate pyramids with modern technology.

[Crittek]

Fun fact: When two surfaces are this flat there is actually a weak molecular bond that requires force to pull them apart.

As a man that knows absolutely nothing about how to build this. I can confirm, this is amazing.

[MrDude-tppm]

As a machinist, I can confirm this is as impressive as it looks. Great work

[BrendanOkeefeMusic.]

This is why CNC machines are impressive

[stevenlallamant]

As a machining apprentice, this is pure dopamine

[AzulDevin]

I was about to ask why I was staring at a sheet of metal but then realized it wasn’t a sheet of metal, it was a masterpiece of metal

[jubbaronny]

As a time-served machinist with 40 years experience, that is seriously accurate work.

[RicoandFamily]

This is the results that you get when the office workers are away on some outing, leaving the CNC Operator the fuck alone.

[coopertown]

Now that we know it's possible, I never want to see a seam ever again lol. That's pretty sweet!

[huh]

Bro neglecting the corner of his nail 💀

[charleshill]

And that's the key to no doors on a flying saucer

[LU-DGITAL]

Zero tolerance. That means they hate seams or something like that.
