Summary of Findings so Far Relating to Precision Architecture
1)
Evidence of 'fused' blocks.
This picture at Macchu Picchu was posted earlier and the two blocks look to be fused. Whilst this totally discredits the pounding theory it in itself is not a smoking gun in relation to ancient high technology. One of the reasons being that Abe came up with a theory of acid melting to explain such a phenomena and this in theory is feasible. How the blocks would be handled if the faces were made soft by acid is not clear, but then again the lazer and heat theory also has it's problems in this sense.
Here it is again.
Here is the clip I took the picture from (see 4:00):

This is implying that melting has taken place. Look at this clip from Ollyantaytambo. Notice the curious step at the block join. That step was not intended by the builders in my view. What happened I believe is that the block on the left was heavier at the time of assembly and it literally sank in to the melted rock just a few millimetres more than the block on the right.
It would be interesting to know the weight of these two blocks to see if my theory is correct. The same kind of thing can be seen at Cuzco in the precision walls.

2)
Evidence of High Technology Cutting.
Two clips have been posted already on this. The first clip that intrigued me showed this saw cut:
and zoomed in. Notice the shiny ledge on the right suggestive of vitrification (this will be mentioned last of all). Also notice and the radius on the left. Both to me suggesting that this is not a contemporary cut using a modern power tool but it was there originally. The same radius effect is seen all though the country where precision cutting is found.
Here is the clip containing this cut (see 1:55)

Here is the other example of a precision cut:
Here is the clip (see beginning)

Foerster remarks that this is granite. I did examine the clip to check for vitrification signs but unfortunately there is not enough footage of the cut surface to be able to tell.
These two examples indicate high technology cutting. As far as I can see no prosaic explanations can account for this. The same kind of precision cutting can be seen in the grooves at Puma Punku. The above examples are by no means unique.
The shear width of cut in the last example to me is highly significant. It was suggested that this is nothing more than a fault in the granite. After searching for similar examples I could find nothing remotely to compare to it.
The cut width suggests strongly that some tool was used to cut this. The use of wire saws can be discounted from the point of view of the hardness of metal needed.
Furthermore the cuts seen in the caves precludes the use of wire saws.
3)
Vitrification
This to me is the most significant point of all. Vitrification is found exclusively on precision relics. No where is it to be seen on less precise work. This precludes the recently suggested 'desert varnish' theory because according to the theory it should exist on all desert exposed relics yet it clearly does not.
The Cuzco wall, and the Coricancha are perhaps the best examples of vitrification but it is also found in the caves, and even on mountain sides on remaining rock where quarrying has taken place. This would strongly suggest that polishing is not the cause.
The example of 'The Wall of Living Rock' is highly significant as it is an ancient quarry where large blocks were removed and it has vitrified but not levelled surfaces. This again argues against the acid theory as the cause.
One of the strongest pieces of evidence that lazer or directed high temperature cutting technology was used to cut the stone and cause the vitrification effect is the hole on the block at Coricancha.

No polishing or acid, or anything else was likely to have been been used in that small hole to create the vitrification effect. It had to be the result of the original cutting device. As vitrification is a well known side effect of heat then that had to be the method of boring.
Conclusions.
While the acid theory has some merit in no way can it be used to explain all of the artefacts. The evidence strongly suggests the use of intense heat directed technology (laser or equivalent) was used to cut and soften these stones which created a vitrification effect and helped to create an almost seamless join.
How the blocks were handled once the cutting had been done also needs to be considered.
