This thing is kinda creepy. I can see this thing climbing up on top of someone as they sleep and plunging its end mill into their skull. In reality the noise of this thing moving would wake them up... Its still pretty creepy.

the creepiness factor is very evident, but the sheer mobility of this little sucker is fascinating from an accuracy standpoint.
