Love the behind the scenes shots brad thanks for sharing. I should have nicer build pics up soon!

My curiosity still peaks when I am around big machinery. I’ll try to get some more pictures. Perhaps even a video of the machines in operation.

Dave came through with a video of the glass polisher in action. I've posted it on YouTube here:




This machine is used to inspect the glass for imperfections. It's easy to overlook a small scratch, so we take the time to find them before we start building.




Dave didn't tell me what's going on in this next picture. I can only imagine how much this glass must weigh. Look how thick it is!




** Concept Aquatics - Mini Contest **

Here's a little contest. If anyone can tell me what's going on in the picture above, I'll award them 1000 "Concept Award" points for use at our store. Please post your answer to this thread. If no one has any ideas, then we will get Dave to explain it.

Is the massive sheet being broken down into smaller pieces?

Giant air cushion table to be able to move large sheets.
