Episode overview
Lightweight metal is machined into precisely balanced fly-fishing reels and fitted with smooth drag mechanisms. Pigments, binders and additives are blended into house paint, weaving looms coordinate warp and weft threads to produce patterned fabric, and automatic ice makers freeze water, release the finished cubes and prepare for the next cycle.
