Narrator:
IN RACECAR ENGINES,
4
00:00:54,689 --> 00:00:57,137
EXCESS LUBRICATING OIL
IS STORED IN TANKS
5
00:00:57,137 --> 00:00:59,000
RATHER THAN OIL PANS.
6
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,275
THIS PREVENTS THE OIL FROM
SLOSHING AROUND DURING THE RACE
7
00:01:02,275 --> 00:01:04,931
AND CAUSING DRAG
ON THE CRANKSHAFT.
8
00:01:04,931 --> 00:01:07,793
WITH LESS DRAG,
PERFORMANCE IS INCREASED.
9
00:01:07,793 --> 00:01:10,896
SO THESE OIL TANKS
ARE PART OF A WINNING STRATEGY.
10
00:01:13,758 --> 00:01:16,448
RACECAR OIL TANKS
COME IN VARIOUS SHAPES
11
00:01:16,448 --> 00:01:19,586
AND SIZES IN ORDER TO FIT
INTO DIFFERENCE VEHICLES.
12
00:01:19,586 --> 00:01:21,551
BUT THEIR PURPOSE IS THE SAME --
13
00:01:21,551 --> 00:01:23,793
TO KEEP EXCESS OIL
OUT OF THE ENGINE
14
00:01:23,793 --> 00:01:26,482
TO BOOST PERFORMANCE.
15
00:01:26,482 --> 00:01:29,827
EACH TANKS STARTS
WITH A COMPUTER DESIGN.
16
00:01:29,827 --> 00:01:32,965
THE ENGINEER MAPS OUT
THE PRECISE DIMENSIONS.
17
00:01:32,965 --> 00:01:34,586
THEY INPUT THE MEASUREMENTS
18
00:01:34,586 --> 00:01:37,172
INTO COMPUTERIZED
MACHINING SYSTEMS.
19
00:01:37,172 --> 00:01:39,827
THIS FIRST ONE CUTS
A LONG PIECE OF ALUMINUM
20
00:01:39,827 --> 00:01:41,620
INTO SMALLER PIECES,
21
00:01:41,620 --> 00:01:44,793
CREATING BLANKS TO MAKE PARTS
KNOWN AS TANK RINGS.
22
00:01:47,068 --> 00:01:48,827
A VERTICAL MILLING TOOL SCULPTS
23
00:01:48,827 --> 00:01:52,275
A RECESS IN THE BLANK
TO SEAT AN O-RING SEALER.
24
00:01:52,275 --> 00:01:53,827
THEN, SWITCHING BITS,
25
00:01:53,827 --> 00:01:56,206
THE MACHINE CONTOURS
THE OUTSIDE OF THE BLANK,
26
00:01:56,206 --> 00:01:58,931
TAKING IT FROM
RECTANGULAR TO ROUND.
27
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,793
OTHER TOOLS CARVE
A LARGE HOLE IN THE CENTER
28
00:02:03,793 --> 00:02:05,586
AND PROFILE THE INNER DIAMETER
29
00:02:05,586 --> 00:02:08,655
SO THAT THE PART
WILL MATE TO THE TANK.
30
00:02:08,655 --> 00:02:11,068
THIS RING IS DESIGNED
TO BE REMOVABLE
31
00:02:11,068 --> 00:02:13,655
TO ACCESS THE TANK
FOR MAINTENANCE.
32
00:02:13,655 --> 00:02:16,896
HERE'S THE BLANK BEFORE
AND AFTER MACHINING.
33
00:02:18,862 --> 00:02:20,758
LIKE POWERFUL COOKIE CUTTERS,
34
00:02:20,758 --> 00:02:23,310
COMPUTERIZED PUNCHES CUT
OUT NUMEROUS PARTS
35
00:02:23,310 --> 00:02:25,379
FROM AN ALUMINUM SHEET.
36
00:02:25,379 --> 00:02:27,034
THEY INCLUDE THE OIL TANK BODY,
37
00:02:27,034 --> 00:02:29,724
THE TOP,
AND OTHER ASSEMBLY PIECES.
38
00:02:31,862 --> 00:02:34,344
TO MAKE THE TANK
BODY CYLINDRICAL,
39
00:02:34,344 --> 00:02:37,172
A WORKER TURNS A CRANK
TO CURL IT AROUND A ROLLER.
40
00:02:37,172 --> 00:02:40,931
THIS TANK BODY
IS CALLED THE WRAPPER.
41
00:02:40,931 --> 00:02:43,241
HE DRILLS A HOLE
IN THE BOTTOM CONE.
42
00:02:43,241 --> 00:02:44,689
THE HOLE IS FOR THE LINE
43
00:02:44,689 --> 00:02:48,310
THAT RETURNS LUBRICATING OIL
TO THE RACECAR ENGINE.
44
00:02:48,310 --> 00:02:49,793
USING A THIN BAND SAW,
45
00:02:49,793 --> 00:02:52,724
HE TRIMS THE CONE
TO FIT THE TANK RING.
46
00:02:55,448 --> 00:02:58,241
WITH A DEVICE KNOWN
AS A HYDRAULIC TUBE BENDER,
47
00:02:58,241 --> 00:03:02,000
A WORKER SHAPES A PIECE OF PIPE
TO A PRECISE RADIUS.
48
00:03:06,068 --> 00:03:08,793
THIS PIPE WILL BE USED
TO VENT AIR INTO A CHAMBER
49
00:03:08,793 --> 00:03:10,862
AT THE SIDE OF THE OIL TANK.
50
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,206
HE TRIMS THE ENDS OF
THE VENT TUBE USING A BAND SAW.
51
00:03:23,448 --> 00:03:27,000
A WORKER WELDS THE TANK RING
TO THE BOTTOM CONE,
52
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,689
CREATING A THICK SEAM
ALL THE WAY AROUND.
53
00:03:32,827 --> 00:03:36,206
HE THEN SEALS THE SEAM
OF THE CYLINDRICAL WRAPPER BODY
54
00:03:36,206 --> 00:03:40,344
AND WELDS A TOP CAP
TO A DEAERATING BAFFLE.
55
00:03:40,344 --> 00:03:42,724
AIR WILL RISE THROUGH IT
AND VENT IT INTO
56
00:03:42,724 --> 00:03:44,206
AND OUT OF A SIDE CHAMBER,
57
00:03:44,206 --> 00:03:46,448
LEAVING ONLY OIL IN THE TANK.
58
00:03:49,931 --> 00:03:53,896
HE SLIDES THE BAFFLE
INTO THE WRAPPER BODY.
59
00:03:53,896 --> 00:03:55,241
HE INSERTS THE VENT TUBE
60
00:03:55,241 --> 00:03:57,482
IN A HOLE ON THE SIDE
OF THE TANK.
61
00:04:00,275 --> 00:04:03,827
HE FITS AN ADAPTER RING
TO THE UPPER LIP OF A TANK
62
00:04:03,827 --> 00:04:06,068
AND TAPS IT DOWN
WITH A RUBBER MALLET.
63
00:04:09,862 --> 00:04:13,655
HE WELDS THE BAFFLE AND
FILLER NECK TO THE TANK BODY,
64
00:04:13,655 --> 00:04:15,379
AND THEN ASSEMBLES
THE AIR VENT CHAMBER
65
00:04:15,379 --> 00:04:17,000
TO THE SIDE OF THE OIL TANK
66
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,517
AND WELDS IT TO IT.
67
00:04:21,896 --> 00:04:24,551
MOVING TO ANOTHER STATION,
A WORKER NOW TAPS
68
00:04:24,551 --> 00:04:26,586
PERFORATED PLASTIC INSERTS
69
00:04:26,586 --> 00:04:29,586
INTO HOLES IN
THE AIR VENT CHAMBER.
70
00:04:29,586 --> 00:04:31,137
THESE INSERTS WILL BOTH VENT
71
00:04:31,137 --> 00:04:34,620
AND FILTER THE AIR
FROM THE TANK.
72
00:04:34,620 --> 00:04:37,482
HE FITS A RUBBER SEALING
RING AROUND THE FILL NECK
73
00:04:37,482 --> 00:04:40,931
AND SCREWS THE CAP ON.
74
00:04:40,931 --> 00:04:43,000
HE APPLIES
THE ADHESIVE-BACK DECALS
75
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,275
TO THE TANK
FOR BRANDING PURPOSES.
76
00:04:47,896 --> 00:04:49,724
HE CAPS THE OIL INLET TUBE
77
00:04:49,724 --> 00:04:52,344
TO KEEP CONTAMINANTS OUT
DURING SHIPPING.
78
00:04:54,793 --> 00:04:57,103
HE TURNS THE TANK UPSIDE DOWN
79
00:04:57,103 --> 00:05:01,275
AND INSTALLS A VALVE
ON THE BOTTOM OF THE VENT TANK.
80
00:05:03,896 --> 00:05:05,448
HE INSERTS A RUBBER O-RING
81
00:05:05,448 --> 00:05:07,965
INTO A GROOVE ON THE BASE
OF THE TANK WALL
82
00:05:07,965 --> 00:05:11,275
AND TUCKS IT INTO PLACE
ALL THE WAY AROUND.
83
00:05:14,896 --> 00:05:16,931
AFTER EQUIPPING
THE FITTINGS ON THE CONE
84
00:05:16,931 --> 00:05:18,413
WITH CAPS FOR SHIPPING,
85
00:05:18,413 --> 00:05:21,068
HE INSTALLS THE CONE
ON THE BASE OF THE TANK
86
00:05:21,068 --> 00:05:23,413
AND SCREWS THE RING
TIGHTLY TO IT.
87
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,034
ACCESSING THE TANK
FOR MAINTENANCE REASONS
88
00:05:28,034 --> 00:05:30,034
WILL MEAN UNSCREWING THIS PART.
89
00:05:33,655 --> 00:05:38,000
THAT COMPLETES
THIS RACECAR OIL TANK.
90
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,689
HOOKED UP TO A SYSTEM OF PUMPS,
91
00:05:39,689 --> 00:05:42,517
THESE TANKS WILL RECEIVE
AND DISPENSE OIL
92
00:05:42,517 --> 00:05:46,724
SPARINGLY TO IMPROVE
ENGINE PERFORMANCE.
93
00:05:46,724 --> 00:05:50,000
THEY'VE BEEN WELL-EQUIPPED
FOR LIFE IN THE FAST LANE.
94
00:06:02,413 --> 00:06:05,655
Narrator:
THE ANCIENT GREEKS FIRST
BEGAN BEAUTIFYING INTERIORS
95
00:06:05,655 --> 00:06:09,655
WITH ORNATE COLUMNS AND MOLDINGS
SHAPED FROM PLASTER.
96
00:06:09,655 --> 00:06:12,517
DECORATIVE MOLDINGS
WERE A POPULAR DESIGN FEATURE
97
00:06:12,517 --> 00:06:16,241
IN MUCH OF EUROPE FROM ROUGHLY
THE 17th CENTURY ONWARD,
98
00:06:16,241 --> 00:06:18,275
WITH ITALIAN TRADESMEN
BECOMING FAMOUS
99
00:06:18,275 --> 00:06:20,827
FOR THEIR MASTERY
AT PLASTERWORK.
100
00:06:23,068 --> 00:06:25,137
SPECIALISTS
IN TRADITIONAL PLASTERWORK
101
00:06:25,137 --> 00:06:27,068
ARE A RARE BREED THESE DAYS.
102
00:06:27,068 --> 00:06:28,586
BUT THAT'S WHO YOU NEED TO HIRE
103
00:06:28,586 --> 00:06:31,000
TO PROPERLY REPAIR
PLASTER MOLDINGS
104
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,689
IN A HISTORIC HOME
105
00:06:32,689 --> 00:06:35,344
OR TO CRAFT PLASTER
MOLDINGS FROM SCRATCH.
106
00:06:38,620 --> 00:06:41,103
TO REPAIR THIS DAMAGED
CEILING MEDALLION,
107
00:06:41,103 --> 00:06:42,689
THE PLASTERMAN FIRST SAWS
108
00:06:42,689 --> 00:06:45,034
AND CHISELS OFF
THE PROBLEM PORTION,
109
00:06:45,034 --> 00:06:48,586
CLEARING A FLAT WORK SURFACE.
110
00:06:48,586 --> 00:06:50,896
THEN, HE DRIVES
AND SCREWS PART WAY
111
00:06:50,896 --> 00:06:53,517
TO ANCHOR THE NEW PORTION
OF MOLDING.
112
00:06:53,517 --> 00:06:55,000
THE HEAVIER THE PLASTER MOLDING,
113
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,206
THE MORE SCREWS YOU NEED
TO HOLD THE LOAD.
114
00:06:59,206 --> 00:07:02,793
ANOTHER PLASTERMAN, MEANWHILE,
PREPARES THE PLASTER.
115
00:07:02,793 --> 00:07:05,413
THE FIRST INGREDIENT
IS LIME COMPOUND --
116
00:07:05,413 --> 00:07:07,068
A SIMPLE MIXTURE OF LIME,
117
00:07:07,068 --> 00:07:12,034
ALSO KNOWN AS CALCIUM HYDROXIDE,
AND WATER.
118
00:07:12,034 --> 00:07:14,413
HE FORMS A WELL
WITH HIS SCRAPER...
119
00:07:18,965 --> 00:07:20,689
THEN FILLS THE WELL
WITH A MIXTURE
120
00:07:20,689 --> 00:07:22,482
OF ROUGHLY THREE-QUARTERS WATER
121
00:07:22,482 --> 00:07:25,379
TO ONE-QUARTER
CONSTRUCTION-GRADE BONDING GLUE.
122
00:07:32,655 --> 00:07:35,068
HE ADDS JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT
OF PLASTER OF PARIS,
123
00:07:35,068 --> 00:07:36,896
WHICH IS POWDERED GYPSUM,
124
00:07:36,896 --> 00:07:40,344
THE SAME STUFF THEY USE
TO MAKE CASTS FOR BROKEN BONES.
125
00:07:45,620 --> 00:07:47,068
HE TAKES HIS TROWEL
126
00:07:47,068 --> 00:07:49,241
AND THOROUGHLY BLENDS
THE LIME COMPOUND,
127
00:07:49,241 --> 00:07:52,137
GLUE MIXTURE
AND PLASTER OF PARIS.
128
00:07:52,137 --> 00:07:54,241
WHEN IT HAS THE CONSISTENCY
OF PUDDING,
129
00:07:54,241 --> 00:07:56,172
THE PLASTER IS READY.
130
00:07:56,172 --> 00:07:58,896
THE PLASTERMAN DOES THIS
ALL BY EYE,
131
00:07:58,896 --> 00:08:03,793
WITHOUT EVER ACTUALLY MEASURING
A SINGLE INGREDIENT.
132
00:08:03,793 --> 00:08:06,620
AFTER APPLYING BONDING GLUE
TO THE REPAIR AREA,
133
00:08:06,620 --> 00:08:11,241
THE OTHER PLASTERMAN TROWELS
ON LOTS OF PLASTER.
134
00:08:11,241 --> 00:08:14,655
THEN, HE TAKES WHAT'S CALLED
A CIRCULAR RUNNING MOLD.
135
00:08:14,655 --> 00:08:18,758
ITS PROFILE IS OUT
OF THE EXISTING MOLDING.
136
00:08:18,758 --> 00:08:21,379
HE RUNS IT BACK AND FORTH
OVER THE WET PLASTER,
137
00:08:21,379 --> 00:08:23,517
HENCE THE TERM "RUNNING MOLD."
138
00:08:25,620 --> 00:08:28,241
THEN, HE CAREFULLY SCRAPES
AWAY THE EXCESS
139
00:08:28,241 --> 00:08:30,448
AND RUNS A WET PAINTBRUSH
OVER THE NEW
140
00:08:30,448 --> 00:08:32,724
AND OLD PORTIONS OF THE MOLDING.
141
00:08:32,724 --> 00:08:36,586
THIS MAKES THE TRANSITION
BETWEEN THE TWO APPEAR SEAMLESS
142
00:08:36,586 --> 00:08:40,448
AND SMOOTHES OUT
ANY IMPERFECTIONS.
143
00:08:40,448 --> 00:08:42,103
TO MAKE THE RUNNING MOLDS,
144
00:08:42,103 --> 00:08:44,827
HE CUTS OUT A CROSS SECTION
OF THE EXISTING MOLDING
145
00:08:44,827 --> 00:08:47,448
AND TRACES IT TO PRODUCE
A SHEET METAL TEMPLATE
146
00:08:47,448 --> 00:08:50,758
WITH THE SAME PROFILE.
147
00:08:50,758 --> 00:08:53,413
THEN WITH THAT, HE CUTS
THE SHAPE IN WOOD,
148
00:08:53,413 --> 00:08:56,206
PRODUCING WHAT
THEY CALL A STOCK.
149
00:08:56,206 --> 00:08:58,551
AFTER SANDING
THE STOCK SMOOTH,
150
00:08:58,551 --> 00:09:00,931
HE SCREWS ON THE METAL TEMPLATE.
151
00:09:00,931 --> 00:09:02,793
THE WOOD BACKING
PREVENTS THE METAL
152
00:09:02,793 --> 00:09:06,655
FROM BENDING AS HE RUNS
IT OVER THICK PLASTER.
153
00:09:06,655 --> 00:09:10,758
HE SCREWS MORE WOOD
TO THE STOCK TO FORM A HANDLE.
154
00:09:10,758 --> 00:09:13,344
TO MAKE CROWN MOLDINGS,
THE PLASTERMAN MOUNTS
155
00:09:13,344 --> 00:09:16,724
A TRACK TO GUIDE
HIS RUNNING MOLD.
156
00:09:16,724 --> 00:09:20,034
HE CHECKS FOR ANCHOR SCREWS
OBSTRUCTING THE PATH.
157
00:09:20,034 --> 00:09:24,931
IF HE FINDS ANY, HE DRIVES THEM
A BIT FURTHER INTO THE CEILING.
158
00:09:24,931 --> 00:09:26,793
HE BRUSHES ON BONDING GLUE
159
00:09:26,793 --> 00:09:28,793
AND LETS IT SIT
FOR FIVE MINUTES.
160
00:09:32,655 --> 00:09:36,310
THEN, HE BEGINS APPLYING
THE PLASTER IN SIZABLE GLOBS.
161
00:09:39,724 --> 00:09:42,793
HE PASSES THE RUNNING
MOLD OVER THE PLASTER.
162
00:09:42,793 --> 00:09:45,655
HE REPEATS SEVERAL TIMES
WITH ADDITIONAL PLASTER,
163
00:09:45,655 --> 00:09:48,206
WAITING 20 MINUTES
OR SO BETWEEN COATS
164
00:09:48,206 --> 00:09:52,793
TO LET THE PLASTER HARDEN
JUST ENOUGH TO HOLD THE SHAPE.
165
00:09:52,793 --> 00:09:55,137
HE APPLIES THE FINAL COAT
BY HAND,
166
00:09:55,137 --> 00:09:57,793
FILLING IN CREVICES
AND IMPERFECTIONS.
167
00:09:57,793 --> 00:10:02,000
THEN, HE PASSES THE RUNNING
MOLD ONE LAST TIME.
168
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,241
THE WET PLASTER
MOLDING TAKES ANYWHERE
169
00:10:04,241 --> 00:10:07,551
FROM 48 TO 72 HOURS TO DRY,
170
00:10:07,551 --> 00:10:13,344
DEPENDING ON ITS SIZE
AND ON THE HUMIDITY IN THE ROOM.
171
00:10:13,344 --> 00:10:15,896
ONLY WHEN THE MOLDING IS
COMPLETELY DRY CAN
172
00:10:15,896 --> 00:10:18,586
THE PLASTERMAN BEGIN
THE NEXT STEP,
173
00:10:18,586 --> 00:10:23,000
CRAFTING THE CORNER PIECES,
CALLED MITERS.
174
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,689
STARTING WITH LARGER KNIVES
AND SCRAPERS,
175
00:10:25,689 --> 00:10:29,551
HE USES THE EDGE OF THE ADJACENT
MOLDINGS AS A GUIDE,
176
00:10:29,551 --> 00:10:31,689
ADDING SOME PLASTER,
SCULPTING IT,
177
00:10:31,689 --> 00:10:34,793
THEN REMOVING THE EXCESS.
178
00:10:34,793 --> 00:10:36,344
HE KEEPS REPEATING THESE STEPS
179
00:10:36,344 --> 00:10:38,689
UNTIL EACH SIDE
OF THE MITER MATCHES
180
00:10:38,689 --> 00:10:41,379
THE MOLDING IT JOINS PERFECTLY.
181
00:10:41,379 --> 00:10:43,413
IT'S A SLOW
AND METICULOUS PROCESS
182
00:10:43,413 --> 00:10:47,862
THAT TAKES PATIENCE
AND AN EXPERT EYE.
183
00:10:47,862 --> 00:10:49,758
ONCE HE HAS PERFECTED
THE PROFILE,
184
00:10:49,758 --> 00:10:51,103
HE REFINES THE EDGES
185
00:10:51,103 --> 00:10:54,827
WITH SMALLER
KNIVES AND SCRAPERS.
186
00:10:54,827 --> 00:10:57,862
FINALLY, HE BLENDS THE SURFACE
WITH A WET BRUSH,
187
00:10:57,862 --> 00:10:59,793
RENDERING THE TRANSITION
FROM MITER
188
00:10:59,793 --> 00:11:03,448
TO MOLDING VISUALLY SEAMLESS.
189
00:11:03,448 --> 00:11:06,827
BRAND-NEW YET
DISTINCTIVELY OLD-WORLD.
190
00:11:17,344 --> 00:11:20,241
Narrator: LEMONGRASS ISN'T JUST
A CULINARY HERB.
191
00:11:20,241 --> 00:11:21,482
OIL DISTILLED FROM THE PLANT
192
00:11:21,482 --> 00:11:25,448
IS A POPULAR INGREDIENT
IN SOAP AND SPA PRODUCTS.
193
00:11:25,448 --> 00:11:28,965
USED IN AROMATHERAPY
FOR NUMEROUS THERAPEUTIC REASONS
194
00:11:28,965 --> 00:11:31,551
WITH A FRAGRANCE
THAT'S CITRUSY YET SWEET,
195
00:11:31,551 --> 00:11:35,000
LEMONGRASS OIL DEFINITELY
PASSES THE SMELL TEST.
196
00:11:38,344 --> 00:11:40,068
FOLLOW THE SCENT
OF LEMONGRASS,
197
00:11:40,068 --> 00:11:42,862
AND THE TRAIL LEADS
TO THAILAND.
198
00:11:42,862 --> 00:11:45,310
IT'S HERE THAT THE PLANT
IS GROWN AND PROCESSED
199
00:11:45,310 --> 00:11:47,896
INTO AN ESSENTIAL OIL.
200
00:11:47,896 --> 00:11:50,103
LEMONGRASS OIL IS
THE SIGNATURE SCENT
201
00:11:50,103 --> 00:11:53,517
IN THIS PART OF THE WORLD.
202
00:11:53,517 --> 00:11:56,172
AFTER HARVESTING LEMONGRASS,
WORKERS SELECT
203
00:11:56,172 --> 00:12:00,000
THE MOST FRAGRANT
SPECIMENS AND DRY THEM.
204
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,793
THEY TRANSFER THESE PLANTS,
205
00:12:01,793 --> 00:12:04,655
STALK AND ALL,
TO A DISTILLATION FACILITY.
206
00:12:04,655 --> 00:12:08,172
THE HEADY AROMA OF LEMONGRASS
WILL NOW BE CONCENTRATED
207
00:12:08,172 --> 00:12:11,586
INTO A POTENT ESSENTIAL OIL.
208
00:12:11,586 --> 00:12:13,931
WORKERS UNLOCK THE TOP
OF THE STILL
209
00:12:13,931 --> 00:12:17,379
AND POUR IN CHLORINE-FREE,
DEIONIZED WATER.
210
00:12:19,517 --> 00:12:21,586
ONCE THE STILL IS
ONE-QUARTER FULL,
211
00:12:21,586 --> 00:12:24,551
THEY ADD THE LEMONGRASS.
212
00:12:24,551 --> 00:12:27,172
THEY STACK THE BUNDLES
IN A CRISSCROSS FASHION,
213
00:12:27,172 --> 00:12:31,137
CREATING GAPS FOR STEAM
TO PASS THROUGH.
214
00:12:31,137 --> 00:12:33,379
THEY FILL THE STILL TO THE BRIM.
215
00:12:36,413 --> 00:12:39,241
IT WILL TAKE 66 POUNDS
OF LEMONGRASS TO MAKE
216
00:12:39,241 --> 00:12:43,551
ROUGHLY 1 QUART OF
HIGHLY-FRAGRANT ESSENTIAL OIL.
217
00:12:43,551 --> 00:12:45,413
THEY SCREW THE LID
TIGHTLY TO PREVENT
218
00:12:45,413 --> 00:12:47,965
THE LOSS OF STEAM
DURING DISTILLATION.
219
00:12:50,275 --> 00:12:51,758
THEY ACTIVATE THE STILL,
220
00:12:51,758 --> 00:12:55,724
AND IT HEATS THE WATER
TO THE BOILING POINT.
221
00:12:55,724 --> 00:12:59,241
STEAM RISES THROUGH THE PLANTS
AND PICKS UP THE OILS.
222
00:12:59,241 --> 00:13:01,586
IT CARRIES THE OIL VAPOR UP
THROUGH A PIPE
223
00:13:01,586 --> 00:13:03,137
AND INTO A CONDENSER,
224
00:13:03,137 --> 00:13:06,620
WHERE THE VAPORS COOL
AND RETURN TO A LIQUID FORM.
225
00:13:06,620 --> 00:13:12,517
THE LIQUID OIL AND WATER
DRIP OUT INTO A FLASK.
226
00:13:12,517 --> 00:13:13,931
OIL AND WATER DON'T MIX.
227
00:13:13,931 --> 00:13:16,275
SO THE OIL FLOATS TO THE TOP.
228
00:13:16,275 --> 00:13:17,724
AND THE WATER IS DRAINED OFF
229
00:13:17,724 --> 00:13:21,241
AND RECYCLED BACK
INTO THE DISTILLER.
230
00:13:21,241 --> 00:13:23,586
THE TECHNICIAN THEN COLLECTS
THE LEMONGRASS OIL
231
00:13:23,586 --> 00:13:27,241
IN A BOTTLE ONE DROP AT A TIME.
232
00:13:27,241 --> 00:13:29,068
THE LEMONGRASS OIL UNDERGOES
233
00:13:29,068 --> 00:13:32,172
A SECOND DISTILLATION
IN A LABORATORY,
234
00:13:32,172 --> 00:13:34,517
USING A MORE SENSITIVE
PIECE OF EQUIPMENT
235
00:13:34,517 --> 00:13:37,586
KNOWN AS
A ROTARY VACUUM EVAPORATOR.
236
00:13:37,586 --> 00:13:39,586
THE OIL FLOWS INTO A FLASK
237
00:13:39,586 --> 00:13:44,379
THAT'S SPINNING IN A HOT BATH
OF VEGETABLE OIL.
238
00:13:44,379 --> 00:13:46,275
THE EVAPORATOR PUMPS OUT AIR
239
00:13:46,275 --> 00:13:48,758
AND CREATES A VACUUM
IN THE FLASK,
240
00:13:48,758 --> 00:13:51,137
WHICH LOWERS THE BOILING POINT.
241
00:13:51,137 --> 00:13:54,172
THIS PREVENTS DAMAGE
TO THE DELICATE MOLECULES
242
00:13:54,172 --> 00:13:57,448
RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE LEMONGRASS SCENT.
243
00:13:57,448 --> 00:14:00,241
THE OIL VAPORS RISE
TO A CONDENSER COIL
244
00:14:00,241 --> 00:14:02,103
WHERE THEY RELIQUEFY,
245
00:14:02,103 --> 00:14:06,620
LEAVING ANY RESIDUAL WATER
AND IMPURITIES BEHIND.
246
00:14:06,620 --> 00:14:10,551
THE PURE LEMONGRASS OIL DRIPS
INTO A RECEIVER FLASK.
247
00:14:12,551 --> 00:14:15,689
AS DISTILLED LEMONGRASS
OIL IS COLLECTED,
248
00:14:15,689 --> 00:14:19,379
MORE FLOWS INTO THE EVAPORATOR
BEAKER FOR PURIFICATION.
249
00:14:22,482 --> 00:14:26,620
THE DISTILLING PROCESS
IS CONTINUOUS.
250
00:14:26,620 --> 00:14:29,068
THE ROTARY VACUUM
EVAPORATOR PROCESSES
251
00:14:29,068 --> 00:14:32,241
ROUGHLY 2 TO 3 QUARTS
OF FRAGRANT OIL PER HOUR.
252
00:14:35,103 --> 00:14:37,689
THEY STORE THE LEMONGRASS OIL
IN A COLD ROOM
253
00:14:37,689 --> 00:14:40,965
WITH OTHER ESSENTIAL OILS.
254
00:14:40,965 --> 00:14:43,551
LIKE FINE WINE,
IT MUST BE KEPT COOL,
255
00:14:43,551 --> 00:14:46,413
OR IT COULD SPOIL
AND RUIN ITS BOUQUET.
256
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,758
WHEN IT'S TIME
TO FORMULATE INGREDIENTS
257
00:14:51,758 --> 00:14:53,655
FOR A CREAM OR LOTION,
258
00:14:53,655 --> 00:14:55,586
A TECHNICIAN
BLENDS LEMONGRASS OIL
259
00:14:55,586 --> 00:14:57,689
WITH OTHER ESSENTIAL OILS.
260
00:15:00,448 --> 00:15:03,689
JUST A FEW DROPS MAKE
A DIFFERENCE YOU CAN SMELL.
261
00:15:08,482 --> 00:15:10,896
THEY ALSO USE LEMONGRASS
OIL TO ENHANCE
262
00:15:10,896 --> 00:15:14,000
THE SOOTHING QUALITIES
OF BATH CRYSTALS.
263
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,413
THE TECHNICIAN FIRST
SIFTS EPSOM SALTS
264
00:15:17,413 --> 00:15:20,344
AND BAKING SODA INTO A BOWL.
265
00:15:20,344 --> 00:15:24,241
HE ADDS MEASURED AMOUNTS OF
THE BLEND TO SEA SALT CRYSTALS.
266
00:15:26,379 --> 00:15:28,310
HE STIRS THE INGREDIENTS BY HAND
267
00:15:28,310 --> 00:15:31,620
TO EVENLY DISTRIBUTE
THEM IN THE MIX.
268
00:15:31,620 --> 00:15:34,000
THE BATH SALTS ARE NOW READY
FOR AN INFUSION
269
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,344
OF THE DOUBLE-DISTILLED
LEMONGRASS OIL.
270
00:15:38,344 --> 00:15:41,310
HE ADDS IT TO A SUBMIXTURE
OF OTHER ESSENTIAL OILS
271
00:15:41,310 --> 00:15:43,931
TO CREATE A BLEND
WITH CALMING EFFECT.
272
00:15:46,448 --> 00:15:49,241
HE POURS THE ESSENTIAL
OILS ONTO THE CRYSTALS.
273
00:15:49,241 --> 00:15:53,310
AND THEY SOAK INTO THE TINY
SPACES IN THE PARTICLES.
274
00:15:53,310 --> 00:15:56,241
THEY THEN ADD SOME
MORE AROMATIC SPICE --
275
00:15:56,241 --> 00:15:58,241
A FRESHLY-GROUND
BLEND OF LEMONGRASS,
276
00:15:58,241 --> 00:16:00,379
TURMERIC, AND OTHER INGREDIENTS.
277
00:16:03,620 --> 00:16:05,655
HE SPRINKLES THE HERBS
ONTO THE CRYSTALS
278
00:16:05,655 --> 00:16:09,275
AND FOLDS THEM INTO THE BLEND.
279
00:16:09,275 --> 00:16:14,793
THE FINAL EFFECT WILL BE
SKIN-TINGLING AND REJUVENATING.
280
00:16:14,793 --> 00:16:17,034
INCORPORATED INTO MANY PRODUCTS,
281
00:16:17,034 --> 00:16:20,068
LEMONGRASS OIL WILL
AWAKEN THE SENSES.
282
00:16:31,724 --> 00:16:35,413
Narrator: FLY FISHING USES
ARTIFICIAL LURES CALLED FLIES
283
00:16:35,413 --> 00:16:38,103
RATHER THAN NATURAL
BAIT LIKE WORMS.
284
00:16:38,103 --> 00:16:40,241
A FLY IS A HOOK
THAT HAS MATERIALS
285
00:16:40,241 --> 00:16:42,517
LIKE FEATHERS
TIED TO IT WITH THREAD
286
00:16:42,517 --> 00:16:43,896
TO TRICK THE FISH INTO THINKING
287
00:16:43,896 --> 00:16:46,379
THERE'S AN INSECT
FLOATING ON THE WATER.
288
00:16:46,379 --> 00:16:50,103
TO MAKE YOUR OWN FLIES,
YOU USE A FLY TYING VISE.
289
00:16:52,448 --> 00:16:55,034
THIS FLY TYING VISE
HAS POCKETS AT ITS BASE
290
00:16:55,034 --> 00:16:56,586
TO HOLD YOUR MATERIALS
291
00:16:56,586 --> 00:16:59,137
AND STURDY STEEL JAWS
TO GRIP THE FISHHOOK
292
00:16:59,137 --> 00:17:02,827
WHILE YOU TIE
THOSE MATERIALS ONTO IT.
293
00:17:02,827 --> 00:17:04,724
THIS MACHINE MAKES
THE SAND MOLDS
294
00:17:04,724 --> 00:17:08,068
FOR CASTING
THE METAL POCKET BASES.
295
00:17:08,068 --> 00:17:10,689
IT DEPOSITS MOIST
SAND INTO A FLASK
296
00:17:10,689 --> 00:17:13,137
TO FORM ONE HALF OF A MOLD,
297
00:17:13,137 --> 00:17:16,793
THEN ROLLS OVER THE FLASK
TO A PATTERN ON THE OTHER SIDE.
298
00:17:16,793 --> 00:17:19,620
AFTER SPRAYING THE PATTERN
WITH A NONSTICK COATING,
299
00:17:19,620 --> 00:17:23,034
A WORKER SIFTS SAND ONTO IT.
300
00:17:23,034 --> 00:17:25,758
THEN THE MACHINE
DEPOSITS SAND ON TOP
301
00:17:25,758 --> 00:17:28,655
TO FORM THE OTHER
HALF OF THE MOLD.
302
00:17:28,655 --> 00:17:30,137
IT COMPRESSES THE SAND
303
00:17:30,137 --> 00:17:33,206
WITH ROUGHLY 4 1/2 TONS
OF HYDRAULIC PRESSURE.
304
00:17:33,206 --> 00:17:37,344
THE PATTERN SANDWICHED AT THE
CENTER FORMS THE MOLD CAVITY.
305
00:17:37,344 --> 00:17:40,448
A MACHINE SEPARATES THE HALVES
TO REMOVE THE PATTERN,
306
00:17:40,448 --> 00:17:44,103
THEN PUTS THEM BACK TOGETHER.
307
00:17:44,103 --> 00:17:47,034
IN THE CASTING AREA,
WORKERS HEAT PIECES OF BRONZE
308
00:17:47,034 --> 00:17:51,275
TO APPROXIMATELY
1,922 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT,
309
00:17:51,275 --> 00:17:54,241
MELTING THEM DOWN.
310
00:17:54,241 --> 00:17:56,620
THEY REMOVE THE POT
FROM THE ELECTRIC FURNACE
311
00:17:56,620 --> 00:18:00,413
AND PLACE IT IN A POURING SHANK.
312
00:18:00,413 --> 00:18:03,034
THEY POUR THE MOLTEN BRONZE
DOWN A CHANNEL LEADING
313
00:18:03,034 --> 00:18:05,689
TO THE MOLD CAVITY.
314
00:18:05,689 --> 00:18:07,517
AFTER ABOUT A HALF HOUR,
315
00:18:07,517 --> 00:18:10,310
ONCE THE BRONZE HAS COOLED
AND SOLIDIFIED,
316
00:18:10,310 --> 00:18:13,827
THE FLIP THE MOLD ONTO
A VIBRATING GRATE.
317
00:18:13,827 --> 00:18:17,896
FIRST THE IMPACT AND THEN
THE SHAKING BREAK THE MOLD.
318
00:18:17,896 --> 00:18:20,137
THE SAND FALLS
THROUGH THE GRATE
319
00:18:20,137 --> 00:18:24,620
WHILE FOUR CONNECTED BRONZE
POCKET BASES REMAIN ON TOP.
320
00:18:24,620 --> 00:18:26,586
ONCE THEY'RE COOL
ENOUGH TO BE HANDLED,
321
00:18:26,586 --> 00:18:30,103
A WORKER SAWS THEM APART.
322
00:18:30,103 --> 00:18:32,206
THE BASES GO INTO
A ROTATING DRUM
323
00:18:32,206 --> 00:18:35,482
FILLED WITH TINY STEEL BEADS.
324
00:18:35,482 --> 00:18:36,931
AS THE DRUM SPINS,
325
00:18:36,931 --> 00:18:41,137
THE CENTRIFUGAL FORCE THROWS
THE BEADS AGAINST THE BASES.
326
00:18:41,137 --> 00:18:43,586
THIS REMOVES
ALL REMNANTS OF SAND
327
00:18:43,586 --> 00:18:48,000
AND POLISHES THE SURFACE SMOOTH.
328
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,551
THE BASES GO ONTO
A COMPUTER-GUIDED
MILLING MACHINE.
329
00:18:51,551 --> 00:18:54,793
IT DRILLS A HOLE TO AFFIX
THE MOUNTING PIECE FOR THE STEM
330
00:18:54,793 --> 00:18:57,379
THAT HOLDS THE HEAD
OF THE VISE.
331
00:18:57,379 --> 00:18:59,655
THE MILL ALSO CUTS
A CIRCULAR HOLE
332
00:18:59,655 --> 00:19:02,137
AT THE CENTER OF THE BASE
FOR A DECORATIVE COIN
333
00:19:02,137 --> 00:19:05,931
BEARING THE MANUFACTURER'S LOGO.
334
00:19:05,931 --> 00:19:09,068
THEY FINISH THE BASES
WITH A CLEAR PROTECTIVE COAT,
335
00:19:09,068 --> 00:19:10,275
A PROPRIETARY FORMULA
336
00:19:10,275 --> 00:19:12,551
THAT PREVENTS
THE BRONZE FROM OXIDIZING.
337
00:19:15,379 --> 00:19:20,000
THE VISE'S OTHER PARTS ARE
MACHINED OUT OF METAL BARS.
338
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,517
HERE, A COMPUTER-GUIDED
LATHE TRANSFORMS
339
00:19:22,517 --> 00:19:27,103
TWO SQUARE STEEL BARS
INTO THE VISE'S JAWS.
340
00:19:27,103 --> 00:19:30,413
FIRST, IT CUTS A SMALL
HALF CIRCLE ON ONE PIECE
341
00:19:30,413 --> 00:19:35,034
FOR THE CAM THAT OPENS
AND CLOSES THE JAWS.
342
00:19:35,034 --> 00:19:37,655
THEN, IT TURNS THE ENDS
TO FORM A POINT.
343
00:19:43,034 --> 00:19:45,206
THE ENTIRE TRANSFORMATION
FROM BARS
344
00:19:45,206 --> 00:19:49,620
TO JAWS TAKES
ABOUT 90 SECONDS.
345
00:19:49,620 --> 00:19:52,862
THEY PLACE THE JAWS,
ONE AT A TIME, INTO A PRESS
346
00:19:52,862 --> 00:19:54,241
AND MAKE A SLIGHT BEND
347
00:19:54,241 --> 00:19:57,620
TO SET THE CORRECT
SPRING TENSION.
348
00:19:57,620 --> 00:19:59,482
THEY VERIFY THE DEPTH
OF THE BEND
349
00:19:59,482 --> 00:20:02,068
WITH A SPECIALIZED
MEASURING TOOL,
350
00:20:02,068 --> 00:20:04,448
THEN SEND THE JAWS
TO AN OUTSIDE FACILITY
351
00:20:04,448 --> 00:20:08,344
THAT APPLIES
A BLACK PROTECTIVE FINISH.
352
00:20:08,344 --> 00:20:11,620
WHEN THE JAWS COME BACK,
WORKERS ASSEMBLE THEM.
353
00:20:11,620 --> 00:20:16,172
FIRST, THEY PUT THE CAM
THROUGH THE SEMICIRCULAR HOLE.
354
00:20:16,172 --> 00:20:18,517
THEN, THEY COMPRESS
THE JAWS IN A VISE
355
00:20:18,517 --> 00:20:22,379
AND SLIDE AN ALUMINUM
HEAD ONTO THE BACK.
356
00:20:22,379 --> 00:20:24,172
WHEN THE JAWS
COME OUT OF THE VISE,
357
00:20:24,172 --> 00:20:26,275
THEY EXPAND TO THEIR
ORIGINAL POSITION,
358
00:20:26,275 --> 00:20:28,689
RETAINING THE HEAD.
359
00:20:28,689 --> 00:20:31,482
WORKERS APPLY
THE MANUFACTURER'S STICKER,
360
00:20:31,482 --> 00:20:33,793
THEN THREAD A BRASS THUMBSCREW
361
00:20:33,793 --> 00:20:35,896
THAT YOU TURN TO LOCK
IN THE POSITION OF THE HEAD,
362
00:20:35,896 --> 00:20:42,517
WHICH SWIVELS LEFT,
RIGHT, OR 360 DEGREES.
363
00:20:42,517 --> 00:20:45,689
THEY THEN BOLT
THE HANDLE INTO THE CAM.
364
00:20:45,689 --> 00:20:47,068
WHEN YOU DEPRESS THE HANDLE,
365
00:20:47,068 --> 00:20:50,724
THE CAM OPENS,
OPENING THE JAWS.
366
00:20:50,724 --> 00:20:52,379
ON THE REVERSE SIDE OF THE JAWS,
367
00:20:52,379 --> 00:20:54,689
THEY MOUNT A CLIP
FOR HOLDING THE FEATHERS,
368
00:20:54,689 --> 00:20:59,620
YARN, OR OTHER MATERIALS
YOU'RE USING TO TIE YOUR FLY.
369
00:20:59,620 --> 00:21:03,000
THEN, THEY GLUE THE LOGO COIN
INTO THE POCKET BASE.
370
00:21:05,103 --> 00:21:08,655
THEY INSTALL THE MOUNTING
PIECE FOR THE STEM,
371
00:21:08,655 --> 00:21:11,344
THEN THE STEM ITSELF.
372
00:21:11,344 --> 00:21:14,448
A THUMBSCREW ON THE MOUNT
HOLDS THE STEM IN PLACE.
373
00:21:16,931 --> 00:21:20,482
THE HEAD CONNECTS TO A SWIVEL
AT THE TOP OF THE STEM.
374
00:21:22,793 --> 00:21:27,379
THE JAWS SECURELY HOLD THE HOOK
WHILE YOU TIE YOUR FLY
375
00:21:27,379 --> 00:21:31,724
USING ANYTHING FROM FEATHERS
AND FUR TO TINSEL AND BEADS,
376
00:21:31,724 --> 00:21:34,724
CREATING YOUR IMITATION
OF AN APPETIZING INSECT
377
00:21:34,724 --> 00:21:36,793
OR TINY FISH.
