I fail to see the logic behind using precision instruments to mash a banana through a slice of bread. Just mash the banana straight through the slice of bread and be done with it so we can move on to the next useless demonstration.

Now in this next demonstration we will learn how to use only a sawzall, a dragline, and 150 gallons of Xylene to ease the difficult process of mashing a 24 oz. ball pein hammer through a slice of bread.

I think it would be better to study the effects of 1lb of fertilizer and 16 oz of diesel fuel. Ensure you are wearing your safety glasses

There's an old builder's joke: Cut to shape, pound to fit. I'm betting this is something similar, along the lines of an engineer trying to design a sandwich.

Overly complicated instructions on how to make banana bread without peeling the banana.
That, or it's a secret initiation rite for the Masons.

It's like an Elephant and Rhino hybrid...

Measure with vernier calipers, mark with chalk, cut with an axe
