Although I learned my oxyacetylene welding in rural Iowa, no one ever told me I could integrate pork into the metal-cutting process. Another missed career opportunity.
If you wonder what in the sam hill I’m talking about, here’s the Boing Boing story. The video is worth watching just to hear the mad scientist refer to prosciutto as engineering-grade bacon.

Engineers are strange.
I laughed when he said that American bacon doesn't have the "structural integrity" and he needed to use "engineering grade". Any excuse to use prosciutto!
I can safely say that I have never before seen anything like this video.
PS ~ You're a Harley-driving WELDER? You rock, woman!
Is it weird that I now feel the need to own one? Think of the practical applications... roasted marshmallows in seconds! Plus I am on board with anything dealing in engineering grade bacon. Yes please!
Next up - the BLT torch! :)
Don't be so impressed about the welding, Jennifer; I took extra shop classes because I was flunking out of home ec and invited to leave early. At this point in my life, it'd be more useful to know how to sew on a button!
