I just saw how they made buttons on How It's Made. It was pretty cool.

Science and Discovery channels are my favorite to watch and I'm an idiot.
Some of that stuff is fascinating.

Watching a show on how buttons get made.
Really! Can you guys get any nerdier? :)

(actually one of my guilty pleasures also.)

Yeah...but not much.
It was cool. I'd never heard of resin rolling before. It was a giant spinning wheel that they poured different resins on it to make different colored layers. It was pretty gnarly looking.

I haven't seen much of it, the last one I watched was of making cheese, pretty damn interesting. I think they used like 100lts of milk to make 20 pounds of cheese...

you can find these on youtube too, there is one on vinyl records that is cool, I think it might be stock shots because I have seen the same footage with 3 different narrations.

I love that show, but I hate how random the things they cover in each episode are. You'd think they could pick items that somewhat have something to do with eachother.

Caught part of an episode where they showed how marbles were made, that was pretty cool.

There was an episode of Dirty Jobs where mike went to a marble factory. I've always wondered how they made marbles and now I know, thanks TV!
