These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:01,620 --> 00:00:04,620 --captions by vitac-- Www.Vitac.Com 2 00:00:04,620 --> 00:00:07,793 Captions paid for by Discovery communications 3 00:00:51,586 --> 00:00:53,482 Narrator: Many banks and businesses 4 00:00:53,482 --> 00:00:55,586 Have time-delay locks On their safes 5 00:00:55,586 --> 00:00:59,310 To keep their valuables And documents secure. 6 00:00:59,310 --> 00:01:01,896 This helps deter theft Because robbers 7 00:01:01,896 --> 00:01:04,965 May not want to wait around For the safe to open. 8 00:01:04,965 --> 00:01:08,172 If they do, the time delay May keep them around long enough 9 00:01:08,172 --> 00:01:10,758 For police to make an arrest. 10 00:01:12,827 --> 00:01:18,310 This lock lets you select delays Ranging from 1 to 30 minutes. 11 00:01:18,310 --> 00:01:24,206 The timer starts After you insert the key. 12 00:01:24,206 --> 00:01:27,413 Most of the lock's components Are made of zinc. 13 00:01:27,413 --> 00:01:29,413 This semi-automated Casting machine 14 00:01:29,413 --> 00:01:33,344 Heats zinc bars To about 800 degrees. 15 00:01:33,344 --> 00:01:36,586 The molten metal is then fed Into an injection system, 16 00:01:36,586 --> 00:01:40,137 Which shoots the zinc Into a part-shaped mold. 17 00:01:40,137 --> 00:01:42,655 The machine automatically Refills the zinc bars 18 00:01:42,655 --> 00:01:44,655 As the metal is used. 19 00:01:44,655 --> 00:01:49,827 As soon as the machine injects Molten zinc into the mold, 20 00:01:49,827 --> 00:01:51,896 Surrounding tubes Spray cold water 21 00:01:51,896 --> 00:01:55,034 To quickly cool And solidify the metal. 22 00:01:55,034 --> 00:01:58,689 Then the mold opens And ejects the part. 23 00:01:58,689 --> 00:02:02,896 The parts have rough edges, So they go into a vibrating tub. 24 00:02:02,896 --> 00:02:06,965 Inside, they run against ceramic Stones and an abrasive compound 25 00:02:06,965 --> 00:02:10,310 To smooth the edges And polish the surface. 26 00:02:14,068 --> 00:02:18,068 The parts are cleaned And painted on one side. 27 00:02:18,068 --> 00:02:21,172 Then they go into an oven To bake on the paint. 28 00:02:23,137 --> 00:02:24,482 The lock's main cam 29 00:02:24,482 --> 00:02:27,517 Sets the time delay And the open window -- 30 00:02:27,517 --> 00:02:31,896 The amount of time before The safe automatically relocks. 31 00:02:34,275 --> 00:02:36,827 Here, they're drilling holes For screws, 32 00:02:36,827 --> 00:02:38,000 Which will regulate the lengths 33 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,310 Of the time delay And the open window. 34 00:02:41,310 --> 00:02:46,379 Once the lock's components Are prepared, assembly begins. 35 00:02:46,379 --> 00:02:49,000 Workers insert the lock cylinder Into its shell 36 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,793 And remove the key. 37 00:02:50,793 --> 00:02:54,068 Then they screw On a steel cylinder cam. 38 00:02:54,068 --> 00:02:55,965 When you turn the key In the cylinder, 39 00:02:55,965 --> 00:02:58,275 A cam winds And starts the timer. 40 00:02:58,275 --> 00:03:01,551 After the set time delay, 41 00:03:01,551 --> 00:03:04,931 The cam pulls a lever That releases the lock's latch. 42 00:03:07,172 --> 00:03:09,448 To build the lock's Timing assembly, 43 00:03:09,448 --> 00:03:14,344 They first attach a spring To the timer plate. 44 00:03:14,344 --> 00:03:17,241 They hold the spring in place With a plastic retainer. 45 00:03:17,241 --> 00:03:21,586 Then they install A brass timer cam. 46 00:03:21,586 --> 00:03:25,241 The spring holds it In the locked position. 47 00:03:25,241 --> 00:03:28,689 A pin on the cylinder cam's Lever sits on the timer cam. 48 00:03:28,689 --> 00:03:34,482 When the time delay is over, the Pin releases the timer spring, 49 00:03:34,482 --> 00:03:37,620 And the timer cam Moves to the unlocked position. 50 00:03:37,620 --> 00:03:39,793 This allows the cylinder cam 51 00:03:39,793 --> 00:03:42,482 To retract the latch And open the lock. 52 00:03:46,172 --> 00:03:48,827 They screw the plate With the spring and timer cam 53 00:03:48,827 --> 00:03:50,103 To the timer, 54 00:03:50,103 --> 00:03:53,586 Which is gear-driven Like a mechanical clock. 55 00:03:59,103 --> 00:04:04,068 They let the timer Run down all the way. 56 00:04:04,068 --> 00:04:07,034 Then they turn the spring Four times. 57 00:04:10,068 --> 00:04:12,034 They mount the main cam, 58 00:04:12,034 --> 00:04:13,965 Which sets the time delay And open window 59 00:04:13,965 --> 00:04:16,862 On top of the timer cam. 60 00:04:20,655 --> 00:04:23,620 Now they begin calibrating The timer. 61 00:04:23,620 --> 00:04:25,827 First they install An aluminum weight assembly 62 00:04:25,827 --> 00:04:27,931 That controls the timer speed. 63 00:04:31,413 --> 00:04:34,000 They run the timer On a testing machine, 64 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,379 Comparing it to the delay Set on the main cam. 65 00:04:36,379 --> 00:04:39,068 If the timer runs too fast, 66 00:04:39,068 --> 00:04:41,448 They take some tension Off the timer spring. 67 00:04:41,448 --> 00:04:43,965 If the timer runs too slowly, 68 00:04:43,965 --> 00:04:45,758 They trim down The weight assembly 69 00:04:45,758 --> 00:04:47,586 Until they get the right speed. 70 00:04:47,586 --> 00:04:54,068 Once the timer is accurate, they Screw it into the timer cover. 71 00:04:57,206 --> 00:05:01,586 The lock body contains the lever That retracts the lock's latch. 72 00:05:01,586 --> 00:05:03,724 It also has A brass electrical plug 73 00:05:03,724 --> 00:05:07,137 To connect A time-delay indicator light. 74 00:05:07,137 --> 00:05:10,103 After securing the latch And lever in position 75 00:05:10,103 --> 00:05:13,931 With a cover plate, They install the timer assembly. 76 00:05:13,931 --> 00:05:15,862 The visible side Is painted black, 77 00:05:15,862 --> 00:05:19,758 Just like the visible side Of the cover plate. 78 00:05:19,758 --> 00:05:24,034 Then they insert The cylinder assembly. 79 00:05:26,758 --> 00:05:29,275 They mount the lock On the door of the safe 80 00:05:29,275 --> 00:05:31,310 And hook up The indicator lights, 81 00:05:31,310 --> 00:05:33,862 Which run On double-"A" batteries. 82 00:05:41,034 --> 00:05:46,000 To open the safe, you insert, Turn, then remove the key. 83 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,448 The red light indicates The timer is counting down. 84 00:05:49,448 --> 00:05:53,137 When the time delay is over, The green light comes on. 85 00:05:53,137 --> 00:05:56,586 Then you reinsert the key, And the safe opens. 86 00:06:06,758 --> 00:06:09,137 Narrator: chocolate brownies Are irresistible. 87 00:06:09,137 --> 00:06:10,965 Their origins are uncertain, 88 00:06:10,965 --> 00:06:12,413 But they were Definitely developed 89 00:06:12,413 --> 00:06:14,758 In the united states Over a century ago. 90 00:06:14,758 --> 00:06:17,724 One story is that a homemaker From bangor, maine, 91 00:06:17,724 --> 00:06:19,758 Made the first brownies Accidentally 92 00:06:19,758 --> 00:06:21,137 While trying to make a cake. 93 00:06:21,137 --> 00:06:23,655 Another story states that They were deliberately invented 94 00:06:23,655 --> 00:06:25,862 By the chef at a chicago hotel. 95 00:06:28,344 --> 00:06:32,275 Neither cake nor cookie, a Brownie is something in between, 96 00:06:32,275 --> 00:06:35,241 A moist, dense, And chewy square. 97 00:06:35,241 --> 00:06:40,034 There's no doubt it brings Something special to the table. 98 00:06:40,034 --> 00:06:43,586 To mass-produce brownies, this Factory starts with canola oil. 99 00:06:43,586 --> 00:06:46,965 They add xanthan gum, A natural preservative 100 00:06:46,965 --> 00:06:50,068 That increases moisture Retention during baking. 101 00:06:50,068 --> 00:06:54,862 They blend these two ingredients In an industrial mixer. 102 00:06:54,862 --> 00:06:59,896 Then they add sugar, cocoa, 103 00:06:59,896 --> 00:07:02,689 And canola And palm oil shortening. 104 00:07:04,931 --> 00:07:06,689 They reactivate the mixer, 105 00:07:06,689 --> 00:07:11,034 And it blends the ingredients Into a chocolate batter. 106 00:07:11,034 --> 00:07:13,758 The next ingredients Are whole eggs... 107 00:07:15,724 --> 00:07:17,655 ...And corn syrup. 108 00:07:20,103 --> 00:07:23,793 The massive mixing arm Descends back into the bowl 109 00:07:23,793 --> 00:07:27,862 And whips these ingredients Into the batter. 110 00:07:27,862 --> 00:07:31,172 A worker wheels the bowl To a hopper, 111 00:07:31,172 --> 00:07:34,448 Which releases A precise amount of flour. 112 00:07:34,448 --> 00:07:37,620 The flour thickens the mix. 113 00:07:37,620 --> 00:07:41,448 It will give The baked brownies structure. 114 00:07:41,448 --> 00:07:46,275 After 25 minutes of mixing, The batter is complete. 115 00:07:46,275 --> 00:07:51,689 There's enough batter here To make 6,000 brownies. 116 00:07:51,689 --> 00:07:55,137 They transfer The smooth chocolaty mixture 117 00:07:55,137 --> 00:07:57,344 To a machine called a depositor. 118 00:08:02,448 --> 00:08:04,689 A sprayer mists the pans With oil 119 00:08:04,689 --> 00:08:08,103 To keep the brownies from Sticking to them during baking. 120 00:08:08,103 --> 00:08:10,896 Then the pans Arrive at the depositor. 121 00:08:13,379 --> 00:08:15,000 This computerized machine 122 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,551 Releases the batter Into each pan. 123 00:08:18,551 --> 00:08:21,551 It has perfect aim every time. 124 00:08:23,344 --> 00:08:27,344 Next, the pans Enter an 11-1/2-foot oven. 125 00:08:28,931 --> 00:08:32,448 The brownies rotate through 13 tiers to bake them evenly. 126 00:08:35,103 --> 00:08:39,862 After about 20 minutes, The brownies are cooked. 127 00:08:39,862 --> 00:08:44,310 They exit the oven And head into a cooling chamber. 128 00:08:47,758 --> 00:08:50,000 Like the oven, It's multi-tiered. 129 00:08:52,068 --> 00:08:55,931 The pans move through it As fans cool the brownies. 130 00:08:58,793 --> 00:09:02,620 The cooling Helps solidify the brownies. 131 00:09:02,620 --> 00:09:05,172 Then a robot arm With needle-like claws 132 00:09:05,172 --> 00:09:08,413 Lifts them out of the pans 133 00:09:08,413 --> 00:09:10,689 And transfers them To the next conveyer. 134 00:09:12,655 --> 00:09:14,827 The robots are gentle, 135 00:09:14,827 --> 00:09:18,275 So the cool brownies Stay intact during the process. 136 00:09:20,655 --> 00:09:25,172 The brownies round a corner and Transfer to another conveyer. 137 00:09:27,965 --> 00:09:29,931 At the end of the line, 138 00:09:29,931 --> 00:09:32,862 A worker places the brownies In a narrow conveyer system 139 00:09:32,862 --> 00:09:36,172 That takes them To the wrapping station. 140 00:09:36,172 --> 00:09:38,275 A computer sensor Detects their approach 141 00:09:38,275 --> 00:09:42,137 And alerts the plastic Wrapping system ahead. 142 00:09:42,137 --> 00:09:45,137 The plastic unwinds Into the wrapping machine 143 00:09:45,137 --> 00:09:48,827 As the brownies enter it. 144 00:09:48,827 --> 00:09:52,517 Metal wheels with grooves pull The wrapper under the brownies, 145 00:09:52,517 --> 00:09:56,586 And then heated wheels Melt the seam to close it. 146 00:09:56,586 --> 00:09:59,793 A hot jaw then seals and severs 147 00:09:59,793 --> 00:10:02,310 The plastic film Between the brownies, 148 00:10:02,310 --> 00:10:05,896 Creating individual packets. 149 00:10:09,103 --> 00:10:11,965 A robot opens a box 150 00:10:11,965 --> 00:10:15,241 And sets it on a conveyer Next to the brownie line. 151 00:10:18,689 --> 00:10:21,448 An employee then places Eight packets of brownies 152 00:10:21,448 --> 00:10:23,137 In each carton. 153 00:10:27,586 --> 00:10:30,758 They ride by a rotary device, 154 00:10:30,758 --> 00:10:33,344 Which automatically folds The ends of the cartons. 155 00:10:42,206 --> 00:10:45,379 Then the boxes are glued shut. 156 00:10:47,655 --> 00:10:50,724 Finally, they travel Through a metal detector. 157 00:10:50,724 --> 00:10:53,620 It uses a high-frequency Electromagnetic signal 158 00:10:53,620 --> 00:10:56,758 To detect any metal fragments In the brownies. 159 00:10:58,827 --> 00:11:00,000 It takes about an hour 160 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,344 To make and package brownies At this factory, 161 00:11:04,344 --> 00:11:07,689 But only a fraction of that time To enjoy them. 162 00:11:18,655 --> 00:11:20,034 Narrator: pallets are used 163 00:11:20,034 --> 00:11:23,482 To easily move Large quantities of goods. 164 00:11:23,482 --> 00:11:25,965 They were invented In the early 20th century 165 00:11:25,965 --> 00:11:29,896 And have been a warehouse staple Ever since. 166 00:11:29,896 --> 00:11:32,517 Multiple unused pallets Can cause clutter 167 00:11:32,517 --> 00:11:34,689 And even be a safety hazard. 168 00:11:34,689 --> 00:11:37,344 That's where pallet dispensers Come in. 169 00:11:39,551 --> 00:11:41,413 Before pallet dispensers, 170 00:11:41,413 --> 00:11:43,379 Pallets were kept In loose stacks. 171 00:11:43,379 --> 00:11:46,517 Retrieving one Was potentially dangerous. 172 00:11:46,517 --> 00:11:49,379 The pallet dispenser Solves this problem. 173 00:11:49,379 --> 00:11:52,206 It helps keep the workplace Safe and organized. 174 00:11:56,551 --> 00:11:58,517 A high-speed cnc machine 175 00:11:58,517 --> 00:12:01,827 Cuts out the steel parts Of the pallet dispenser. 176 00:12:06,241 --> 00:12:08,448 An employee uses a press brake 177 00:12:08,448 --> 00:12:11,724 To bend the components To the required shapes. 178 00:12:11,724 --> 00:12:14,379 A preset backstop 179 00:12:14,379 --> 00:12:17,931 Ensures that the metal piece Goes into the precise depth. 180 00:12:21,241 --> 00:12:23,482 Next, a worker uses a mig welder 181 00:12:23,482 --> 00:12:27,137 To quickly bond The new parts together. 182 00:12:27,137 --> 00:12:29,965 The parts hang from chains, 183 00:12:29,965 --> 00:12:32,620 Which are charged With a negative current. 184 00:12:32,620 --> 00:12:36,448 Painters then spray positively Charged paint on them. 185 00:12:38,724 --> 00:12:42,586 The parts are baked in an oven For 20 minutes to dry the paint. 186 00:12:44,344 --> 00:12:46,344 The traveler frame Moves up and down 187 00:12:46,344 --> 00:12:49,206 With the pallets Inside the dispenser. 188 00:12:49,206 --> 00:12:52,379 A worker Installs 12 cam followers. 189 00:12:54,068 --> 00:12:57,241 A team positions The linear track assembly. 190 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,000 Its vertical bars Guide the cam followers, 191 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,965 Keeping the traveler frame On track. 192 00:13:07,172 --> 00:13:09,896 Once this sub-assembly Is complete, 193 00:13:09,896 --> 00:13:13,310 Workers install it Inside the main side frames. 194 00:13:13,310 --> 00:13:17,827 Together, these components Form the main base assembly. 195 00:13:17,827 --> 00:13:21,896 The dispenser's Self-contained hydraulic system 196 00:13:21,896 --> 00:13:26,137 Doesn't require power To control the traveler frame. 197 00:13:28,724 --> 00:13:31,620 This is one Of two hydraulic cylinders. 198 00:13:31,620 --> 00:13:35,448 They're designed to easily hold A heavy stack of pallets. 199 00:13:38,034 --> 00:13:42,482 The worker Installs four brake arms. 200 00:13:42,482 --> 00:13:46,103 They hold a set of Spring-loaded latches in place 201 00:13:46,103 --> 00:13:48,896 To keep the pallets Suspended in position. 202 00:13:52,965 --> 00:13:55,586 Next, he positions The sprockets. 203 00:13:57,068 --> 00:13:59,965 The pallet dispenser Requires four sprockets 204 00:13:59,965 --> 00:14:01,965 To support two chains. 205 00:14:04,172 --> 00:14:06,620 These chains Connect the traveler frame 206 00:14:06,620 --> 00:14:09,379 To a massive Steel counterweight. 207 00:14:09,379 --> 00:14:14,620 As it gets fuller, the traveler Frame lowers to the ground. 208 00:14:14,620 --> 00:14:16,724 After the pallets Touch the floor, 209 00:14:16,724 --> 00:14:20,103 The counterweight Lifts the frame. 210 00:14:20,103 --> 00:14:23,965 The pallets are stored in a tall Column called a pallet magazine. 211 00:14:25,620 --> 00:14:29,206 Two employees work together To install it. 212 00:14:29,206 --> 00:14:32,000 The magazines Come in two standard heights -- 213 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,620 4 feet and 8 feet. 214 00:14:37,896 --> 00:14:41,103 Not all pallet magazines Are red. 215 00:14:41,103 --> 00:14:44,517 Customers can select From a wide variety of colors. 216 00:14:47,310 --> 00:14:48,724 The interior panels 217 00:14:48,724 --> 00:14:51,793 Protect the dispenser's Mechanism from being damaged. 218 00:14:51,793 --> 00:14:53,310 They're also the access panels 219 00:14:53,310 --> 00:14:56,068 To the product's Precision engineering. 220 00:14:56,068 --> 00:14:59,068 A trained professional Should always handle 221 00:14:59,068 --> 00:15:01,793 The machine's maintenance And repair. 222 00:15:01,793 --> 00:15:04,172 Making the panels Relatively inaccessible 223 00:15:04,172 --> 00:15:07,517 Decreases the chances of Tampering, injury, or accidents 224 00:15:07,517 --> 00:15:09,137 By an amateur. 225 00:15:11,068 --> 00:15:14,413 Next, a worker Runs a quality-control test. 226 00:15:14,413 --> 00:15:16,586 He uses a walkie rider 227 00:15:16,586 --> 00:15:19,862 To raise a stack of pallets And remove the bottom one. 228 00:15:22,241 --> 00:15:24,586 When he's done, The hydraulic system 229 00:15:24,586 --> 00:15:27,172 Lowers the stack Back into position. 230 00:15:29,413 --> 00:15:31,793 Here, one worker uses a forklift 231 00:15:31,793 --> 00:15:36,758 To raise the top section of the Pallet magazine into position 232 00:15:36,758 --> 00:15:41,137 While the other worker Guides the magazine into place. 233 00:15:41,137 --> 00:15:44,000 Graphics and decals Have already been added, 234 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:45,862 So all that's left Is for the worker 235 00:15:45,862 --> 00:15:48,896 To securely bolt The two sections together. 236 00:15:52,206 --> 00:15:56,206 With about 2 billion pallets In the u.S. Alone, 237 00:15:56,206 --> 00:15:58,620 Things can really start To pile up. 238 00:16:00,931 --> 00:16:02,862 Pallet stackers make life easier 239 00:16:02,862 --> 00:16:06,068 For manufacturers and shippers All over the world. 240 00:16:12,862 --> 00:16:17,379 Some refer to these devices As giant pez dispensers. 241 00:16:17,379 --> 00:16:21,103 In a way, That's exactly what they are, 242 00:16:21,103 --> 00:16:22,827 And they're just as safe. 243 00:16:31,482 --> 00:16:33,793 Narrator: once reserved For palaces and castles, 244 00:16:33,793 --> 00:16:37,448 Today's chandeliers can be found In even the most modest homes. 245 00:16:37,448 --> 00:16:39,689 They function as more Than just a light source. 246 00:16:39,689 --> 00:16:42,379 Chandeliers can be The illuminating centerpieces 247 00:16:42,379 --> 00:16:46,620 Of traditional rooms or give Modern rooms an eclectic twists. 248 00:16:46,620 --> 00:16:50,931 Either way, a crystal chandelier Is always elegant and timeless. 249 00:16:52,137 --> 00:16:54,689 This chandelier Is quite a showstopper. 250 00:16:54,689 --> 00:16:58,000 It stretches More than 3 feet high and wide 251 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,655 With 24 elegant arms. 252 00:17:00,655 --> 00:17:03,172 It's decorated With clear and red crystal 253 00:17:03,172 --> 00:17:06,344 And a gilded hurricane shade Over each light. 254 00:17:06,344 --> 00:17:10,000 To make the crystal, they melt Silica sand in a furnace, 255 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:14,206 Along with lead, hot ash, And several other ingredients. 256 00:17:14,206 --> 00:17:17,000 The materials combine To make crystal heavier 257 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,241 And more sparkling than glass. 258 00:17:19,241 --> 00:17:22,758 To make each chandelier arm, A crystal blower 259 00:17:22,758 --> 00:17:25,896 Gathers some molten crystal On the end of his blowpipe, 260 00:17:25,896 --> 00:17:29,379 Then shapes the arm with A series of blocks and molds. 261 00:17:31,068 --> 00:17:32,310 He makes a channel 262 00:17:32,310 --> 00:17:35,344 Down the middle For the arm's electrical wiring. 263 00:17:35,344 --> 00:17:38,517 Next, two master crystal blowers Work together 264 00:17:38,517 --> 00:17:43,413 To pull and twist the crystal Into the arm's rope-like design. 265 00:17:43,413 --> 00:17:46,896 This maneuver Requires tremendous expertise. 266 00:17:46,896 --> 00:17:48,931 To achieve the correct diameter, 267 00:17:48,931 --> 00:17:54,137 These craftsmen must stretch The crystal exactly right. 268 00:17:54,137 --> 00:17:57,068 Next, they put it In a chandelier arm mold 269 00:17:57,068 --> 00:18:00,068 And snip off the excess On both ends. 270 00:18:00,068 --> 00:18:03,310 They blow cold air To solidify the crystal. 271 00:18:05,068 --> 00:18:07,344 Another craftsman Inspects the chandelier arm, 272 00:18:07,344 --> 00:18:10,827 Checking the shape, Measurements, 273 00:18:10,827 --> 00:18:13,586 And channel For the electrical wiring. 274 00:18:16,172 --> 00:18:18,068 Next, a pair of craftsmen 275 00:18:18,068 --> 00:18:20,448 Make the bowl-shaped bottom Of the chandelier. 276 00:18:20,448 --> 00:18:22,931 Using traditional techniques, 277 00:18:22,931 --> 00:18:25,344 They place molten crystal In a mold, 278 00:18:25,344 --> 00:18:27,724 Then place the mold in a press. 279 00:18:29,448 --> 00:18:33,448 The crystal chandelier parts Are cooled down in an oven. 280 00:18:33,448 --> 00:18:35,620 The gradual decrease In temperature 281 00:18:35,620 --> 00:18:38,379 Slowly releases tension In the crystal. 282 00:18:38,379 --> 00:18:41,068 This prevents cracking. 283 00:18:41,068 --> 00:18:46,241 Straight out of the furnace, The crystal is 2,280 degrees. 284 00:18:46,241 --> 00:18:51,034 It continues to be pliable until It reaches about 1,202 degrees. 285 00:18:51,034 --> 00:18:54,275 It cools rapidly, So as the craftsmen work, 286 00:18:54,275 --> 00:18:58,275 They must regularly reheat the Crystal in a smaller furnace. 287 00:18:58,275 --> 00:19:03,206 The freshly molded crystal Tends to have a rough surface, 288 00:19:03,206 --> 00:19:07,206 So they use heat from A blowtorch to smooth it out. 289 00:19:07,206 --> 00:19:11,413 These holders support the Hurricane shades on the arms. 290 00:19:11,413 --> 00:19:14,724 This company produces its Signature shade of red crystal 291 00:19:14,724 --> 00:19:16,965 By adding 24-karat gold powder 292 00:19:16,965 --> 00:19:19,551 To the raw materials In the furnace. 293 00:19:19,551 --> 00:19:21,896 The color emerges After the molded piece 294 00:19:21,896 --> 00:19:27,172 Is reheated in an oven To just over 1,000 degrees. 295 00:19:27,172 --> 00:19:30,931 A crystal blower Makes the hurricane shades. 296 00:19:30,931 --> 00:19:34,620 First, he rolls a starting shape At the end of his blowpipe. 297 00:19:34,620 --> 00:19:36,068 Then, with pliers, 298 00:19:36,068 --> 00:19:39,379 He narrows and stretches one end To form a neck. 299 00:19:39,379 --> 00:19:42,413 By now, the crystal has cooled, 300 00:19:42,413 --> 00:19:45,862 So he reheats it Before continuing. 301 00:19:45,862 --> 00:19:47,586 Next, he inserts the crystal 302 00:19:47,586 --> 00:19:51,172 Into a foot-pedal-operated mold Installed in the floor. 303 00:19:51,172 --> 00:19:53,793 He then turns the pipe And blows through it 304 00:19:53,793 --> 00:19:56,448 To expand the crystal To the mold shape. 305 00:19:59,689 --> 00:20:02,379 Once the hurricane shade Has cooled, 306 00:20:02,379 --> 00:20:06,448 Artisans apply an elaborate 24-karat gold decal. 307 00:20:06,448 --> 00:20:09,517 With a paintbrush, they Also apply raised gilding 308 00:20:09,517 --> 00:20:12,206 And 24-karat gold paste. 309 00:20:12,206 --> 00:20:16,068 They heat the shade To fuse the gold to the crystal, 310 00:20:16,068 --> 00:20:20,655 Then polish the gold With an agate stone. 311 00:20:20,655 --> 00:20:24,551 Every part of the crystal Chandelier is handmade, 312 00:20:24,551 --> 00:20:28,724 And the entire chandelier Is manually assembled. 313 00:20:28,724 --> 00:20:30,862 However, Some of the crystal parts 314 00:20:30,862 --> 00:20:33,724 Require prep work Before assembly. 315 00:20:36,620 --> 00:20:38,586 The arms have a light socket At one end 316 00:20:38,586 --> 00:20:41,310 Wired to a connector At the other. 317 00:20:41,310 --> 00:20:45,172 All 24
