There's a company called Precision Castparts in a Portland suburb. It's fun to cycle past because it smells just exactly like a box of crayons some days.
One of the things they make is turbine blades, and there was a writeup back in the day describing some of what is in that video. Good stuff. Humans can be outrageously smart sometimes.
