Kind of sets precedence for laying down on the job doesn't it. having the grind wheels below them probably on a single long arbor driven by a single flat belt not only saves space reduces the need of many moving parts lower maintenance, allows them to grind away from themselves so sparks and dust travels away and down instead of filling the air around them. plus gives their dogs a place to lay and stay close to their owners without getting in the way.
Cool! I did not know "Bring your dog to work" day went that far back!
Why, laying on your belly? Love bringing your dog to work!
Cute that two of them have their dogs laying on them.
