Anna R Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Check this out! http://www.ipernity.com/doc/12900/712262 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 machines components came from Deere Industries and Irrigation Equipment ofBancroft, Iowa , yes farm equipment!It took the team a combined 13,029 hours of set-up Alignment, calibration, and tuning before filming this. INGENIOUS!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAM Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Guys, guys, guys, I really hate to ruin it for you, but if you look very closely .... it's computer enhanced graphics. This ain't real. There was a large version of this going around last year. It's on Snopes.I know, I know ... I'm a party pooper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Well Mam, you probably don't believe in Santa Clause. And worst, I bet you're one of those unbelieving Canada bashers that think Pamela Anderson's knockers are fake.I, James, choose to believe..

Julie Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 ya, after I talked to my husband, he planted the seeds of doubt in my mind. He says there is no John Deere place in Bancroft so he was having trouble wrapping his mind around it. Oh well. It still was pretty cool.
