Check out the "Smarter every day" fellow he does a lot of high speed photography, there are also acouple of guys from the UK that also do that kind if video…their names edcape me right now
Any slow motion videos of cutting wood?
I remember a link here on LJ's last year, about a micron microscope showing how different positioning of the blade on a plane cuts wood with the grain and against the grain. Scientific 
And made me understand some 'why do this or that'. With my ongoing venture into dust collection and creating a foundation for my fliptop work tables for every machine (working on rough draft #3), I wanted to understand the vector and direction of wood dust from a miter saw, router, table saw, etc in slow motion. Example: the router table. I have always noticed people put dust collection near the bit, but not at the left end of the table top where I see a good amount of dust travel from the bit through the dado and out to la la land. And miter saw: I see many with large hoods for enclosures. Based on dust trajectory from a slow motion video, wouldn't that show the best positioning of a 6" or 8" duct instead of a large hood?
I looked into what it takes to create a short video in slow motion. Nothing I have can do 1000 frames per second. There is an iPhone app that does it, but very grainy and low resolution. Some type of Casio digital camera has the capability.
I think it would be neat to see the slow motion of a chisel strike, or a dovetail saw stroke, or how dust travels around a saw blade, or even slow mo of a Thein baffle or Oneida DD.
Any video production folks here on LJ's ?
