Watching This Intricate Lathe Machine In Action is Hypnotic

With access to a good lathe, there’s a lot that can be accomplished and this time, we check out what appears to be the construction of an automotive crankshaft out of a solid beam of metal.

The automated process slowly shaves away pieces of metal until the beam looks more and more like the finished product before getting smoothed out and taking shape as the crankshaft that the creator had in mind when they looked at this solid slab.

Check out the video below that takes you along for the ride and hypnotizes you in the many maneuvers that this beast of a machine makes to trim and shape. Be sure to tell us what your thoughts are on the process.
