Hey! That was nice! Groovy soundtrack too!
I liked the part where the mirror arives at the End of the Line. :D

If you click on the "Return to Video" page, there's a video on Float Glass and one on Laminated Glass.

You got one on how glass is tempered?

For those who might not know, they're flopping it down on an air table, much like an air hockey game. The glass is supported with a cusion of air and can be easily manouvered around without any possibility of scratching.
