The superalloy blades are operating hundreds of degrees above their melting temps. Engineered and fabricated brilliance.

That was frigg'n awesome!

This is the first text book I ever read about Metallurgy, mid 80's, probably outdated, but if anyone want's any pages, let me know, I'll scan any of it you might need/want.

Swiss leader TRUMPF shows the laser metal deposition practices on an assembly. Their high-powerd, N2 cooled CO2 and Ar-shielded CW/Pulsed fiber lasers are on the leading edge of additive manufacturing. Creating, buildin up, and repairing using powdered Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Ti, and other elements are making waves in industry.
The future's so bright, I gotta wear shades.

Recent thread, centering on the pros/cons of various MWFs (metal working fluids), prompted insight between Vegetable and Mineral-based MWFs.
