Supposedly one of only two rotary weavers in the world, this one has been repurposed to create the A-pillar for the new 2011 Lexus LFA supercar.

Here's a video of the car so you can see what the finished parts look like.

By the way, the A pillar is the part between the edge of the windshield and the front of the door.

The trick is more in the making of the nanotubes than the weaving of them Crake.

More machines taking our jobs. One fast worker could take the place of the entire machine.

After 5 seconds of watching this, that's exactly what I was thinking.

Satire? We want machines to take our unwanted jobs, that way more people can do something they want to do.
