Jack Be Nimble, Jack Be Quick—Before That Robot Carves You Like A Stick 



Isn't science wonderful? 

Oh sure. You could carve your jack o' lantern using a knife like you've always done it, but wouldn't you much rather use an eight-foot tall pumpkin-carving robot? I knew you would.

The Detroit Science Center carves its pumpkins in just minutes using a saw-wielding industrial robot. As each piece is completed, the robot spears it in the center, then wipes it off by passing the saw through a fork located above the orange bucket.

Just don't get too close or you may get a tattoo that is truly scary.

Thanks to My Geekdom.com for the link.
