Cool video: A playable record made from a tortilla

Did you know you could make a record from a tortilla and play it on a turntable?  Why would you want to do this, you may ask?  Because… laser cutter!

Last night while cruising Instructables I found “Make a Working Playable Tortilla Record with a Laser Cutter” by Instructables user [UpgradeTech].   The Instructible describes all of the steps, from choosing the perfect tortilla to converting the music files into the laser cutter files.  I’ll spare you all of this–you can read it if you want–but I will play the video.  Because it’s cool.
