Episode overview
Aluminum and engineered wood are pressed together, coated and mounted on folding steel frames to produce outdoor table-tennis tables. Detailed designs are converted into steel moulds for injection-moulded model-kit parts, while optical glass is cut, ground, polished and carefully cleaned before the finished lenses are assembled into light microscopes.
