cylindrical machines - never seen this type of thing before. Nice to see the constant reminder of attention in the work. That'd rule out many a school leaver these days.
My greek father in law actually still does the chair weaving by hand out in Corfu. Normally it's for the wealthy folk that have had the chairs for 100+ years in their family and want to have them repaired by a local craftsmen. Sadly there's less of this work around as everyone opts for "modern" and quite vile stuff produced by low quality mass production.
I also loved the way the assembler used soap in the step called "the final argument" I knew wax would work for screws, but for some reason I'd never considered using soap.
Finally, custom made machines are just as artful as their product.
It is all a beautiful orchestration.
Thanks for the video!
I really shouldn't be watching videos right now, but I am procrastinating!
This is wonderful. The countless times I have sat on a 14 and never, ever for a moment thought about it, let alone the work that went into making it!
It makes one wonder about all of the other things in life that we just take for granted. Perhaps it's time for a little more gratitude.
There's been so many clever people! It is rather humbling.

That's enough YouTube for you today!
Back to your books -- don't you have exams coming up?
Break a leg! Snedd a stick? Fell a fir? Prune a plum tree?
In short: Good luck!
Just a mountain of coursework to do.
Thanks for the luck!
