Those dust free environments are crazy, I have been to a few large plastic making factory's to fix machines and I had to fully suit up, hats shoe covers everything, always interesting to see how stuff like that works!

Interesting.

A few subtitles with process descriptions would have been helpful to fully understand what is going on but it is impressive.

Now maybe you should run a competition with a winning prize of an all expenses paid visit to the factory. I could do with a holiday!  :D

Actually I thought that the older of the two SMT machines was putting the 27th resistor in upside down as I was watching... ;D

What a surprise, indeed.

Well we wish you the best no matter what and hope that you will have lots of time for your family and all good projects.
Such as this Cafe, and I bet some other computer work.
