Folks who machine metal like to make parts that fit together as perfectly as possible. So perfectly, in fact, that the joint disappears when the parts are assembled...

Disappearing part lines is approached by certain injection molds, reality and temperatures make zero nesting impractical. But while all the patterns in the video are super impressive, utilizing tapers could be part of the trick. But the gauge block effect at 1:21, holding air and adhering to lapped mate would be difficult to simulate physically.

Very intensive use of technology and process planning of ultra stable material.
Still not impressive as the German-Swiss apprentices hand filing a cube to slip fit a hand made square opening. All 6 ways.
Spotting blue, spring calipers and a lot of time.
