We just all have to sit, and wait patiently, another 50 years apparently.

Cool tech. Maybe the AL welds looked poor because the guy was going too fast or settings weren't ideal.

LASER welding isn't easily evaluated by eye (unlike MIG/TIG). We do literally miles of LASER welds every day and without destructive testing or cut and etch or XRay inspection you're left to guessing. It's a very different process and the performance of "visually questionable" welds will often surprise you.

just flip them over and rub their tummies and they'll stay still for you.
