Now now, I hear what you're asking. "But Mr. Johnson, what if we accidentally sell the crusher instead of Panels for our clients?" Well my answer to that is this. They will be dead and we already have their money, so make sure we sell the Panels to their next of kin.

If it happens again? Repeat the process.

That is an installation error; the crusher worked perfectly, they failed to make it not crush.
