Keeo in mind that artificial eyes have no functionality. Do be careful in the shop.

No functionality? really? I thought they were bionic eyes that allowed you to see in the dark and stuff....
Really, I hope you don't think that people here are that stupid...
Anyway, the guy is a true artist, amazing stuff...

Errrk. 1:15 on the video is disturbing. You have been warned..

fstedie, I think Fredex's point is that even though the artificial eyes are very lifelike and the maker is a master, they are no substitute for the real thing, hence the "Do be careful in the shop." Have you read the tag at the top of the page? "Void your warranty, violate a user agreement, fry a circuit, blow a fuse, poke an eye out... Welcome to the Make Blog!"
