Video Description

I couldn't even come up with a concise title for this video because this machine is such a mess. I realized long after I finished the video that I never actually said how much this thing cost. It was $1500. I guess I just didn't feel like that was terribly important info though, because once you learn what it does and how it does it, you realize it's not worth using at *any* price.
