I almost posted this in the GD Random Photos thread, but I thought folks in this forum would appreciated it more. These photos from the production lines inside factories are very cool, IMO. One of my first summer jobs in high school was in a factory similar to these...

Mike, there are a couple of TV shows that I watch, one called Inside the Factory and the other is Food Factories (or something like those two names) and, yeah, the production line pics/vids they show are really fascinating.

I think the most amazing one I've seen was a machine that took raw eggs, in the shell, and at an astonishing rate cracked the shell and separated the whites from the yolks without ever making a mistake.

Here, we have a show called 'How It's Made'.

What a classic. I wish they aired it more often instead of the naked survival thing or the guys bidding on containers and similar things.
