For Headworks Geeks Only!

I somehow got on a newsletter list for a headworks company based in Houston, Texas (but they are international, hence the name "Headworks International"). I though I would share this here. The first video is theirs and some of this brand new equipment is so beautiful and sleek it looks like something out of an operating room for robots.



Sadly, we all know what is going to happen to these gorgeous metal constructs, above, as evidenced by the real-life video, below, with headworks from a South African company, S.A.M.E. Water. This video is not for the squeamish, and the rest of you? — don't be eating some giant, guacamole-clad wet burrito while viewing this, OK? (Don't say I didn't warn you!)



I very much enjoyed the musical selections on both pieces! Sort of puts this modern necessity into a whole other sphere! (Were this done by hand with giant fishing nets, the audio would of course, be different.)

I like the contrast in the English language words —"earbuds" in South Africa are "Q-tips" here in the U.S.. And the lesson really is: not all sewer equipment will harvest these things out of the wastewater stream. Best not to flush them down the W.C., as we all will be doing starting this year, in 2016! Happy New Year toilet lovers; we soon will, after 45 years, be able to flush and forget (responsibly, of course)!
