Electric wires:
We are so used to them and we barely notice that electrical wires are all around us. At home, office or in your vehicle, electrical wires are used in almost everything you see around you. Wires are made from electrically conductive metals and they are meant to pass electricity from one point to another. Whether they pass electricity or data, each one is precisely engineered for their purpose. So how are wires made? Check out the video that explains this

Luxury watches:
Throughout most of the 19th century, wrist-watch was just a piece of jewellery worn by women, men on the other hand carried pocket watches. It was during the Boer War that the British soldiers realized that fumbling around a pocket watch was a waste of time. And that’s when the watch industry saw a boom.
Watch-making is a meticulous task and it takes great art in designing exclusive designer watches. Today’s video demonstrates how watch makers put a myriad of tiny details together to make a single watch.

Styrofoam
Styrofoam, or thermocol as we know it, is a simple polystyrene material, is super light and is a very useful product. When it comes to protecting other materials while packaging or to be used as a temperature insulating material, Styrofoam is one of the best options out there. The same material can also be used as building materials in many fields such as automobile modeling, construction, false decorations and a lot more. Each Styrofoam block is made from millions of individual styrene balls, the size of a grain of salt. How do they make Styrofoam blocks is a worth watch. Check it out.

Fireworks:
Fireworks are a class of explosive pyrotechnic devices used for aesthetic, cultural, and religious purposes. Firecrackers are simple rolled paper tubes filled with black powder (also called gunpowder) or flash paper and a fuse. When you light the fuse of a firecracker, the fire burns along the fuse until it reaches the powder. When it does, you get an explosion. Sparklers are different in that they make bright, sparkly light for a long time (up to a minute or more) rather than a short explosion. Sparklers contain more substances than firecrackers, so that they’ll burn longer and produce light and sparks. The bright sparks you see are usually burning bits of dust made of metals, such as aluminum, iron, steel, zinc or magnesium. So how are these made? Check it out.

Whiskey:
Whiskey is a type of distilled alcoholic beverage made from fermented grain mash. Various grains (which may be malted) are used for different varieties, including barley, corn (maize), rye, and wheat. Whisky is typically aged in wooden casks, generally made of charred white oak. Whisky is a strictly regulated spirit worldwide with many classes and types. The typical unifying characteristics of the different classes and types are the fermentation of grains, distillation, and aging in wooden barrels. Check out how they make it.

Contact lenses:
A contact lens, or contacts, is a thin lens placed directly on the surface of the eye. Contact lenses are considered medical devices and can be worn to correct vision, or for cosmetic or therapeutic reasons. Lenses are made from silicone hydrogels which have both the extremely high oxygen permeability of silicone and the comfort and clinical performance of the conventional hydrogels. Because silicone allows more oxygen permeability than water, the oxygen permeability of silicone hydrogels is not tied to the water content of the lens. Lenses have now been developed with so much oxygen permeability that they are approved for overnight wear (extended wear). Lenses approved for daily wear are also available in silicone hydrogel materials. Check out the video below which shows you how these lenses are made

Movies:
Do you know how movies are really made? You see a scene with lots of beautiful backgrounds. But they are usually and really shot on the busy streets. The trick—green screens! Movies are shot with the actors in the foreground and a green screen as a back ground. Later, with the help of computer graphics, the background is added and the scene looks real. Check out today’s video which shows you how they really make movies.

Digital cameras:
The digital camera took over the conventional film camera after the invention of light-sensitive silicon chips. This hugely revolutionized the imaging industry as photography has now become affordable and easier than before. However, to make a digital camera, there is lot goes that into designing and manufacturing it. Check out the video today that shows you how the camera manufacturers make them.

Steel:
Iron and steel are both widely used materials and have various uses such as construction of roads, bridges, railway tracks, appliances, buildings and many more due to its high tensile strength and low cost. In fact, steel is one of the most vital components and lays the foundation for most construction and manufacturing projects. Moreover, steel is also used in a variety of other household and hardware products such as bolts, nails, screws, cooking utensils etc. So do you know how it is manufactured? Check out this video to know how steel is manufactured from scratch.
