"How It's Made"

[Captain Awesome]

What a hypnotic TV-viewing experience.

Right now, I'm watching them make Lange ski boots, which is relevant to this forum, but I watch a lot of episodes that have nothing to do with this.

I can lose hours watching this weird-ass show.

Agreed.
Like, "Wow, I never realized how Oreos were made. As a matter of fact, I never even wondered how they were made. But for some reason, now I'm glad I know."
After a while it's like watching a campfire.

I swear I've seen every episode. Didn't catch the Lange one though. I've been hungover watching a marathon and after dozing off a few times I'll realize its been like 3-4 hrs on the couch.

Weird, I just watched an episode today about making fks/pivot bindings. First one I've seen on the web.

[Mazderati]

Watched the episode on steel the other day. FKNAwesome.

Saw that same Lange boot episode last night, they even put a Recco locater in the back of the cuff. I can also watch this show for hours on end on a rainy afternoon.

Love the show but the music that plays on a loop is irritating.

[Skidog]

Great show

[SB]

Used to watch it all the time then the cable dropped it.

There was a show on CC skis made at the now extinct Karhu plant and another on DH skis.

Is it back on Netflix or Prime? We loved that show but it seems like they quit streaming it a while back.

FWIW, Mighty Machines is the shit. I love how all the machines get voice overs and have conversations about their jobs. It's absurd but every time one of the kids puts an episode on I find myself struggling not to sit down and watch it with them. The steel mill episode, in particular, is choice!

[The Tortoise]

Oh yeah. Mighty Machines occupied me and the kids for a long time. The car crusher was my favourite.

I love shows like that. I had a major crash skiing in Austria and ended up in stuck the hotel room with an ice pack watching a show on how bras were made. It was in German, so didn't understand a word of it, but still fascinating.

Saw a repeat last night on how to turn uranium into plutonium.

Here's the binding one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xFJIRljFB4

I think I like the voice over guy more than then girl we get in Canada.

That is my kind of television. I have a few good friends that are Manufacturing Engineers from when I was studying in the same engineering building.... I always wish I went in that direction. They get to play with some cool toys and have some great stories.
