Very cool! Fun to watch. My previous company made transmission frame beams for the Sikorsky S92 helicopter, from titanium forgings. Also aircraft launch and recovery systems for aircraft carriers, few other significant projects. New shop makes magnetic shielding for everything from the CERN lab in Switzerland to missile guidance systems.
