I just learned how feminine pads and concrete pipes are made!

Turns out, they're totally separate processes.

I really like the show.

They did an awesome job of illuminating the very nuts and bolts of operations - the way they slowed down super-fast machinations and showed exploded views of equipment and such.

The only quirk I had with it, which has improved dramatically over time, was the voice-over writing. It used to be almost quaint and amateurish.

Surely there are commonalities!

Perhaps the iPad?...
 
Fun and educational, what's not to like about the show.

:)
