Two pictorial essays about the assembly of the world's first Ultra High Field MRI magnet are presented. In the first essay, the fabrication of the World's First 8 Tesla magnet is illustrated. These pictures are presented by courtesy of Magnex Scientific (Abdingdon, England) and are used with permission. A pictorial essay on the installation of the Magnet at The Ohio State University is also presented. These pictures were either taken by, or given to, the author over the course of the assembly of this system.
