This has got to be seen to be believed... pretty scary, but also jaw-dropping in it's simplicity and efficiency.

Note that it's not a full width cut... at the beginning of the video, look at the right side of the board, you can see they've already sent it through once, and the blade doesn't exceed the width of the board.
That said, I don't speak Italian, but what I gather from the subtitles is that the guy created a clean 12 inch, 3mm sheet of laminate/inlay in the space of about 4 seconds. The "what if" side of me says that with a proper blade guard, and other safety items installed, I see the birth of a brand new piece of resaw machinery in this video. A tool company that runs with this idea could launch the next biggest hit.
Of course, my "what if" side often exceeds reality. :laughing:
EDIT: Found the website, I said Italian, but I don't think so.... I think it's Portugese or Brazilian, best as I can tell. Nevertheless, these folks make ghee-tars, which explains why they made that thin cut. It'll be part of an acoustic guitar. http://violamineira.blogspot.com/
