I had lots of these recorded (and watched) on my Sky+ box and was sad to lose them when I had it replaced.
It is an excellent series, there has hardly been a single one I haven`t enjoyed. There was a fantastic one of them making end mills which was amazing. I also liked the saw making process. Some of the mass produced foods are interesting too, I couldn`t believe how ice cream lollies were made! Certainly a thumbs up from me on that programme.

You Tube member "bamboopasia" has hundreds of How It's Made episodes.

I also found the End Mill episode from another member:

Alan Haisley:
While I really enjoy almost all of the "How it's Made" programs, it's disappointing that almost all of them could be titled "How a Large, Automated Factory Makes Stuff".

They have had a few artisan shows, but those are quite rare.

If only they would take a good handfull or two of the more productive people from this and a few other boards and make episodes showing them making things. Now THAT would be really great. And it could show how things are actually made.

The gratifying thing is that so much is still produced in the West and not as we would have believed that everything now comes from China. Or is it that if they film in China they don't show the workers, just the machines.

I have thought this many a time when watching this program! It rarely does show the workers...
