Interesting. Be sure to listen to his ridiculous, humorous explanation of how a lens works.

WHAT? what? My Canon lens can take picots without an expensive Camera body. Who knew?

Of course! Think of all the money you can save.

I'm glad my dentist doesn't have his jets set to 60,000 psi. Incredible how water can split open that Canon lens. I've seen welders split apart metal in much the fashion.

I once had broken bolts taken out of an engine block once with water jets.

I watch a water-jet cut a clock face out of a slab of granite a couple of years ago took all of 5 mins.
Now, you do know there is an abrasive in the water its not just water cutting things.
