Prepare to be WOW'd

Sometime you see something and just go WOW. This link was sent to me by my Father in England but even though it's not wedding related I thought you might like to sit back and enjoy 3 minutes of feeling WOW'd yourselves,

This incredible machine was built as a collaborative effort between the Robert M. Trammell Music Conservatory and the Sharon Wick School of Engineering at the University of Iowa. Amazingly, 97% of the machine’s components came from John Deere Industries and Irrigation Equipment of Bancroft, Iowa...Yes, far m equipment.

It took the team a combined 13,029 hours of set-up, alignment, calibration, and tuning before filming this video. As you can see, it was WELL worth the effort.

It’s now on display in the Matthew Gerhard Alumni Hall at the University and it’s already slated to be donated to the Smithsonian.
