Lexus LFA news - Video: dream weaver - 2009

Prepare to have your mind lightly boggled. You're about to watch a video of Toyota's rotary weaver creating the A-pillar for the Lexus LFA.

If this sounds Incredibly Boring, it isn't.

While most CF components are created using pre-weaved sheets of carbon fibre, Toyota owns one of just two rotary weavers in existence, a device capable of literally knitting incredibly complex shapes out of the black stuff.

It goes some way - though probably not all the way - to explaining the LFA's £350,000 price tag.

Maybe it'll... ah, hell, just watch the video. It's amazing.
