does your kitchen have an industrial band saw, abrasive water jet, wire edm? if you are Nathan Myhrvold, the answer is "doesn't everyone's?". and Myhrvold's new cookbook relies upon these tools to deliver a technical tour de force. here are pics of the 50 lb 12 oz book as i unpack it. best crating-from China- i have encountered.

the printing uses a newer system called stochastic (frequency modulated) dot deposition. fabulous color. i am not a fan of fancy cooking-plain and simple works best for me. but the technology of Myhrvold's approach has intrigue. and i am hopeful for a site visit to his Seattle lab. if that happens, text and pics will be posted.
anyhoo, this trailer shows quick frames of some of the tools.
