2
00:00:07,793 --> 00:00:10,793
Captions paid for by
Discovery communications
3
00:00:53,310 --> 00:00:56,034
Narrator: sure, your mobile
Phone will give you the time,
4
00:00:56,034 --> 00:00:57,896
But not nearly as conveniently
5
00:00:57,896 --> 00:01:00,482
Or fashionably
As a wristwatch does.
6
00:01:00,482 --> 00:01:03,275
Watches come in a variety
Of materials,
7
00:01:03,275 --> 00:01:05,896
Often combined
With stainless steel.
8
00:01:05,896 --> 00:01:07,724
But one of the more
Creative pairings
9
00:01:07,724 --> 00:01:09,896
Is stainless steel with wood.
10
00:01:12,896 --> 00:01:14,551
This company makes wristwatches
11
00:01:14,551 --> 00:01:18,206
Which feature exotic
Hardwood accents.
12
00:01:18,206 --> 00:01:21,517
This particular model
Is a limited-edition series
13
00:01:21,517 --> 00:01:24,586
Designed for new york
Yankees baseball fans.
14
00:01:24,586 --> 00:01:28,241
The blue-painted maple comes
From wooden seats salvaged
15
00:01:28,241 --> 00:01:29,931
From the original
Yankee stadium,
16
00:01:29,931 --> 00:01:32,517
Which opened in 1923.
17
00:01:34,896 --> 00:01:36,206
At the watch factory,
18
00:01:36,206 --> 00:01:38,310
A worker first cuts
A strip of wood
19
00:01:38,310 --> 00:01:40,379
Just over a third
Of an inch thick,
20
00:01:40,379 --> 00:01:41,896
Then cuts it into blocks
21
00:01:41,896 --> 00:01:43,758
Measuring around
Three fourths of an inch
22
00:01:43,758 --> 00:01:45,862
By a third of an inch each.
23
00:01:45,862 --> 00:01:47,965
Manufacturers
Will ultimately use
24
00:01:47,965 --> 00:01:50,448
These blocks
To make the wood inlays
25
00:01:50,448 --> 00:01:52,000
In the links
Of the watch bracelet.
26
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,827
The worker then cuts
Another strip
27
00:01:53,827 --> 00:01:55,034
From a piece of wood,
28
00:01:55,034 --> 00:01:57,551
This one nearly a quarter
Of an inch thick.
29
00:01:57,551 --> 00:01:59,413
The worker then cuts this strip
30
00:01:59,413 --> 00:02:01,931
Into nearly 2-by-2-inch squares.
31
00:02:01,931 --> 00:02:04,206
Each one will become
A ring called a bezel
32
00:02:04,206 --> 00:02:06,758
That goes around the watch dial.
33
00:02:06,758 --> 00:02:09,068
Another worker mounts
One square at a time
34
00:02:09,068 --> 00:02:12,103
On a lathe and bores
A hole through the middle.
35
00:02:14,551 --> 00:02:16,758
She mounts several
Board squares
36
00:02:16,758 --> 00:02:18,172
Onto a steel mandrill
37
00:02:18,172 --> 00:02:22,482
That attaches to the lathe along
With the bezel template.
38
00:02:22,482 --> 00:02:24,137
As the lathe turns,
39
00:02:24,137 --> 00:02:26,655
A steel roughing gouge
Rounds the squares
40
00:02:26,655 --> 00:02:29,793
To the diameter of the template.
41
00:02:29,793 --> 00:02:32,034
She takes one bezel at a time
42
00:02:32,034 --> 00:02:34,310
And cuts it
To the required thickness,
43
00:02:34,310 --> 00:02:36,758
About a tenth of an inch.
44
00:02:36,758 --> 00:02:39,206
She then shaves wood
From the underside
45
00:02:39,206 --> 00:02:42,620
So as not to remove
The historic blue paint on top.
46
00:02:43,931 --> 00:02:45,344
To make the watch case,
47
00:02:45,344 --> 00:02:47,275
Which houses the dial
And movement,
48
00:02:47,275 --> 00:02:50,448
The manufacturers cut
A blank piece
49
00:02:50,448 --> 00:02:52,862
Of extruded stainless steel,
50
00:02:52,862 --> 00:02:55,655
Then place it in
A computer-guided machine.
51
00:02:59,413 --> 00:03:01,758
Under a continuous
Shower of lubricant,
52
00:03:01,758 --> 00:03:03,689
The machine's 12 different tools
53
00:03:03,689 --> 00:03:07,310
Take turns shaping the piece
Into a watch case.
54
00:03:10,068 --> 00:03:11,275
The first tools bore
55
00:03:11,275 --> 00:03:14,068
A hole in the middle
For the movement
56
00:03:14,068 --> 00:03:18,172
And carve a groove around
The hole for the wood bezel.
57
00:03:18,172 --> 00:03:21,310
The next tools cut
The outside profile of the case
58
00:03:21,310 --> 00:03:24,793
And the lugs for attaching
The watch band.
59
00:03:24,793 --> 00:03:27,482
Then, the final tool drills
Holes in the lugs
60
00:03:27,482 --> 00:03:29,034
For the spring-loaded pins
61
00:03:29,034 --> 00:03:31,724
That attach the watch band
To the case.
62
00:03:33,724 --> 00:03:36,724
Another computer-guided machine
Makes the watch band
63
00:03:36,724 --> 00:03:39,931
And links out of a bar
Of stainless steel.
64
00:03:39,931 --> 00:03:43,482
This machine reduces the bar
And width, carves out the links
65
00:03:43,482 --> 00:03:46,517
And bores holes
For the connecting pins.
66
00:03:46,517 --> 00:03:49,689
A process called ion
Plating puts a black finish
67
00:03:49,689 --> 00:03:52,241
On all
The stainless-steel parts.
68
00:03:52,241 --> 00:03:54,758
Then, a worker
Assembles two bands
69
00:03:54,758 --> 00:03:57,965
And connects one
To the watch clasp.
70
00:03:57,965 --> 00:04:01,172
Next, he attaches
The watch case window.
71
00:04:01,172 --> 00:04:03,344
It's made of sapphire glass,
72
00:04:03,344 --> 00:04:06,172
A crystal that's
Exceptionally durable.
73
00:04:06,172 --> 00:04:08,827
He inserts the self-winding
Movement and dial.
74
00:04:08,827 --> 00:04:11,896
The dial is a sheet of brass
With cut-out numbers
75
00:04:11,896 --> 00:04:14,137
And indices over a base.
76
00:04:14,137 --> 00:04:19,034
Coated in luminescent paint,
The watch glows in the dark.
77
00:04:19,034 --> 00:04:21,000
He secures the movement
To the case
78
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,517
With a retaining ring,
79
00:04:22,517 --> 00:04:26,586
Then inserts the crown,
Which sets the dial's hands.
80
00:04:26,586 --> 00:04:30,034
The worker screws on
The stainless-steel case back.
81
00:04:30,034 --> 00:04:32,068
The watch's window
Of sapphire glass
82
00:04:32,068 --> 00:04:34,482
Allows you to see
The working movement inside.
83
00:04:34,482 --> 00:04:37,241
The case back is engraved
84
00:04:37,241 --> 00:04:39,724
With the name of the
Limited-edition collection
85
00:04:39,724 --> 00:04:42,517
And this watch's
Number in the series.
86
00:04:42,517 --> 00:04:47,310
He attaches the watch band
To the case with spring pins.
87
00:04:50,137 --> 00:04:52,482
With the watch now
Fully assembled,
88
00:04:52,482 --> 00:04:57,448
It's time to inlay the yankee
Stadium wooden chair accents.
89
00:04:57,448 --> 00:04:59,482
Using a toothpick,
90
00:04:59,482 --> 00:05:01,344
A worker applies epoxy glue
91
00:05:01,344 --> 00:05:04,482
To the rectangular
Recess in each link.
92
00:05:08,275 --> 00:05:12,689
Then he places a wooden
Link piece in each recess.
93
00:05:24,379 --> 00:05:27,827
He follows the same process
For the dial's wooden bezel.
94
00:05:29,965 --> 00:05:32,862
A worker sets the watch
Aside for 24 hours
95
00:05:32,862 --> 00:05:37,034
To let the adhesive set.
96
00:05:37,034 --> 00:05:39,758
Then the worker buffs
The entire surface
97
00:05:39,758 --> 00:05:41,862
On a cloth polishing wheel.
98
00:05:41,862 --> 00:05:44,068
This process removes
The fingerprints
99
00:05:44,068 --> 00:05:47,482
And dust and smoothes
Those historic wood accents.
100
00:05:47,482 --> 00:05:50,793
The watch automatically
Winds with wrist movement
101
00:05:50,793 --> 00:05:53,068
To reliably tell the time
102
00:05:53,068 --> 00:05:56,586
While nostalgically
Going back in time.
103
00:06:07,896 --> 00:06:09,896
Narrator: if you're looking
For an affordable bicycle
104
00:06:09,896 --> 00:06:13,793
That's durable and has great
Shock absorption capabilities,
105
00:06:13,793 --> 00:06:16,310
Then a bike made
Of steel is for you.
106
00:06:16,310 --> 00:06:18,586
It's a bit heavier
Than a high-end bicycle
107
00:06:18,586 --> 00:06:20,896
Made of aluminum
Or carbon fiber,
108
00:06:20,896 --> 00:06:23,965
But this rugged material
Buys you a smoother ride
109
00:06:23,965 --> 00:06:27,000
At a significantly lower price.
110
00:06:29,034 --> 00:06:32,000
This three-speed
Steel bicycle is sturdy
111
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,482
And comfortable enough
To ride recreationally
112
00:06:34,482 --> 00:06:37,379
Or daily to school or work.
113
00:06:37,379 --> 00:06:39,793
A cargo rack in the rear
Can hold your purse,
114
00:06:39,793 --> 00:06:43,793
Backpack or briefcase.
115
00:06:43,793 --> 00:06:46,310
The bike is made
Of chromoly steel,
116
00:06:46,310 --> 00:06:49,724
Which is, pound-for-pound,
Stronger than standard steel.
117
00:06:49,724 --> 00:06:51,862
To prepare the bike's
Tubular parts
118
00:06:51,862 --> 00:06:53,620
Including the frame,
119
00:06:53,620 --> 00:06:57,620
A worker cuts steel tube
With a horizontal band saw
120
00:06:57,620 --> 00:06:59,827
Into specific-length pieces.
121
00:07:01,793 --> 00:07:03,689
He then clamps
Certain frame pieces
122
00:07:03,689 --> 00:07:05,137
Into a milling machine,
123
00:07:05,137 --> 00:07:07,689
Which will cut a curve
Into one or both ends
124
00:07:07,689 --> 00:07:09,517
Depending on
The piece's location
125
00:07:09,517 --> 00:07:12,000
In the final assembly.
126
00:07:15,379 --> 00:07:17,413
This notch, as it's called,
127
00:07:17,413 --> 00:07:18,827
Will let the tube butt up
128
00:07:18,827 --> 00:07:20,896
Against the side
Of an adjacent tube
129
00:07:20,896 --> 00:07:23,310
When the bike's frame
Is assembled.
130
00:07:23,310 --> 00:07:26,344
The notched edge is ragged,
131
00:07:26,344 --> 00:07:30,517
So the worker smoothes it out
With a small belt sander.
132
00:07:32,172 --> 00:07:34,724
Certain frame parts
Are straight, others bent.
133
00:07:34,724 --> 00:07:36,517
To make the bent ones,
134
00:07:36,517 --> 00:07:37,724
Another worker places
135
00:07:37,724 --> 00:07:40,068
The piece of tube
In a tube bender,
136
00:07:40,068 --> 00:07:44,517
A press that forces the tube
Against a curved dye.
137
00:07:44,517 --> 00:07:47,000
Once all the frame parts
Are ready,
138
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,034
A welder clamps
Them in a fixture,
139
00:07:49,034 --> 00:07:52,000
Which correctly positions
Them for assembly.
140
00:07:55,413 --> 00:07:58,172
He works with
A welding torch in one hand
141
00:07:58,172 --> 00:08:00,896
And a rod of filler
Metal in the other.
142
00:08:02,689 --> 00:08:05,413
The torch melts adjacent tubes
At their meeting point
143
00:08:05,413 --> 00:08:08,862
So that they fuse together.
144
00:08:08,862 --> 00:08:10,379
The welder also melts
145
00:08:10,379 --> 00:08:12,931
In some filler metal
To strengthen the joint.
146
00:08:22,034 --> 00:08:25,758
The bicycle frame
Is made up of nine major parts.
147
00:08:28,448 --> 00:08:31,448
And the welder welds them
To each other in two sections,
148
00:08:31,448 --> 00:08:35,275
Forming the rear triangle
And the front triangle.
149
00:08:35,275 --> 00:08:36,586
This is the rear one,
150
00:08:36,586 --> 00:08:40,862
Which alone requires
Nine meticulous welds.
151
00:08:46,586 --> 00:08:49,206
Once each triangle
Is separately assembled,
152
00:08:49,206 --> 00:08:51,172
He welds them together.
153
00:08:53,379 --> 00:08:55,103
Another worker sprays the frame
154
00:08:55,103 --> 00:08:58,413
With powder-coat primer,
Then color.
155
00:08:58,413 --> 00:09:00,551
Powder coat is
An industrial-grade,
156
00:09:00,551 --> 00:09:02,931
Paint-like finish,
157
00:09:02,931 --> 00:09:04,586
Which he bakes onto the metal
158
00:09:04,586 --> 00:09:08,482
At almost 400 degrees
Fahrenheit for 20 minutes.
159
00:09:13,206 --> 00:09:15,068
When the frame comes
Out of the oven,
160
00:09:15,068 --> 00:09:17,034
Another worker presses
Steel caps
161
00:09:17,034 --> 00:09:18,827
Into what's called
The head tube,
162
00:09:18,827 --> 00:09:21,482
That vertical tube
At the front of the frame
163
00:09:21,482 --> 00:09:24,310
Which holds the handlebars
On top
164
00:09:24,310 --> 00:09:26,103
And the fork for the front
Wheel at the bottom.
165
00:09:26,103 --> 00:09:28,689
Bearings inside the caps
Let the handlebars
166
00:09:28,689 --> 00:09:31,896
And fork turn left
And right with ease.
167
00:09:34,827 --> 00:09:36,655
To put the bicycle together,
168
00:09:36,655 --> 00:09:39,137
The worker suspends the frame
In an assembly stand
169
00:09:39,137 --> 00:09:41,103
And then inserts
The bottom bracket,
170
00:09:41,103 --> 00:09:44,965
Which will ultimately support
The bike's drivetrain system.
171
00:09:44,965 --> 00:09:47,448
The bike's fenders
Are made of sheet steel
172
00:09:47,448 --> 00:09:50,965
That's shaped with
Pressure-applying rollers.
173
00:09:50,965 --> 00:09:54,137
The rear fender attaches
To the rear dropout
174
00:09:54,137 --> 00:09:56,206
And at fender mounts
At two other locations
175
00:09:56,206 --> 00:09:58,482
On the frame's rear triangle.
176
00:10:00,965 --> 00:10:02,724
He screws the cargo
Rack to middle
177
00:10:02,724 --> 00:10:05,034
And rear rack supports.
178
00:10:05,034 --> 00:10:06,448
Then, he inserts and bolts
179
00:10:06,448 --> 00:10:09,517
The rear wheel
Into the rear dropout.
180
00:10:09,517 --> 00:10:11,620
The wheel hub has
Three built-in gears.
181
00:10:11,620 --> 00:10:13,862
The hub and rim
Are made of aluminum,
182
00:10:13,862 --> 00:10:16,413
Which is lightweight
And doesn't rust.
183
00:10:16,413 --> 00:10:20,827
The wheel spokes
Are stainless steel.
184
00:10:20,827 --> 00:10:23,586
Next, the worker installs
The drivetrain system,
185
00:10:23,586 --> 00:10:25,241
Inserting the crank arms,
186
00:10:25,241 --> 00:10:26,965
Already mounted to
The chain ring,
187
00:10:26,965 --> 00:10:29,931
Onto the bottom bracket.
188
00:10:29,931 --> 00:10:33,517
He tightens the bolt securely
With a torque wrench.
189
00:10:35,896 --> 00:10:39,275
Workers then insert the fork
Into the bottom of the head tube
190
00:10:39,275 --> 00:10:42,103
And chrome-plated steel
Handlebars into the top mount,
191
00:10:42,103 --> 00:10:44,241
The front fender
And front wheel,
192
00:10:44,241 --> 00:10:45,931
Then install the pedals,
193
00:10:45,931 --> 00:10:49,379
Vinyl seat, chain
And chain guard.
194
00:10:49,379 --> 00:10:50,896
With the gear shifter
195
00:10:50,896 --> 00:10:53,241
And front brake lever
On the handlebars,
196
00:10:53,241 --> 00:10:57,000
This steel bicycle
Is ready to hit the road.
197
00:11:06,758 --> 00:11:08,000
Narrator:
For some pet owners,
198
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,586
Feeding raw food to
Fido is a natural choice.
199
00:11:11,586 --> 00:11:13,724
It harkens back
To the common ancestor
200
00:11:13,724 --> 00:11:15,655
Of all dog breeds, the wolf.
201
00:11:15,655 --> 00:11:18,034
In the wild,
Wolves eat raw meat
202
00:11:18,034 --> 00:11:19,931
And occasionally some greens,
203
00:11:19,931 --> 00:11:23,379
So the theory goes that dogs
Are genetically predisposed
204
00:11:23,379 --> 00:11:25,862
To thrive
On a raw-meat diet.
205
00:11:28,310 --> 00:11:31,413
Dogs have been domesticated
For thousands of years,
206
00:11:31,413 --> 00:11:33,137
But when it comes
To their diet,
207
00:11:33,137 --> 00:11:35,103
They can still
Go a little wild.
208
00:11:35,103 --> 00:11:36,965
Raw canine cuisine may be
209
00:11:36,965 --> 00:11:39,206
A foreign concept
To some pet owners,
210
00:11:39,206 --> 00:11:41,965
But it's becoming
More mainstream.
211
00:11:41,965 --> 00:11:45,310
The makers of raw dog
Food often mix fruits
212
00:11:45,310 --> 00:11:48,000
And vegetables with meat
To provide fiber
213
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,655
And create a balanced meal.
214
00:11:50,655 --> 00:11:52,655
The process starts
215
00:11:52,655 --> 00:11:56,413
With a lot of slicing
And dicing.
216
00:11:56,413 --> 00:12:00,000
A food worker chops the fruits
And veggies into smaller pieces
217
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,448
So they'll be able to go
Through a grinder more easily.
218
00:12:06,034 --> 00:12:09,586
He also removes the seeds
From the apples and the squash
219
00:12:09,586 --> 00:12:12,172
Because the seeds aren't
As easily digested
220
00:12:12,172 --> 00:12:13,551
As the rest of the fruit
221
00:12:13,551 --> 00:12:15,896
And provide
No additional nutrition.
222
00:12:20,206 --> 00:12:22,137
This raw pet food
Recipe calls
223
00:12:22,137 --> 00:12:24,620
For a variety of fruits
And vegetables.
224
00:12:24,620 --> 00:12:25,793
Though, in total,
225
00:12:25,793 --> 00:12:28,965
They will comprise
Just 5% of the meal.
226
00:12:28,965 --> 00:12:33,137
The rest of the raw blend will
Consist of meat, bones,
227
00:12:33,137 --> 00:12:35,655
Organs and fish.
228
00:12:38,482 --> 00:12:40,689
Another food worker
Chops up the chicken,
229
00:12:40,689 --> 00:12:43,103
Which has been
Organically raised
230
00:12:43,103 --> 00:12:47,862
And has even been approved
For human consumption.
231
00:12:47,862 --> 00:12:50,482
Except for the breasts,
All the parts of the chicken
232
00:12:50,482 --> 00:12:52,448
Will be used in the main recipe.
233
00:12:52,448 --> 00:12:56,931
This includes the heart, liver,
Gizzards and the bones.
234
00:13:00,655 --> 00:13:03,862
Raw, whole sardines,
Anchovies and mackerel
235
00:13:03,862 --> 00:13:05,655
Will add essential fatty acids
236
00:13:05,655 --> 00:13:07,482
To the raw chicken blend.
237
00:13:10,586 --> 00:13:12,862
All the ingredients
Have been prepared
238
00:13:12,862 --> 00:13:15,586
And are now ready
For grinding.
239
00:13:15,586 --> 00:13:17,793
A worker feeds the components
To the grinder
240
00:13:17,793 --> 00:13:20,793
In small batches
Interspersing the meat,
241
00:13:20,793 --> 00:13:23,137
Fish and the vegetables.
242
00:13:27,172 --> 00:13:29,758
This ensures even distribution,
243
00:13:29,758 --> 00:13:33,827
As the grinder minces everything
To a uniform particle size.
244
00:13:37,275 --> 00:13:39,275
The result is a thick emulsion
245
00:13:39,275 --> 00:13:41,068
Of finely
Ground chicken meat,
246
00:13:41,068 --> 00:13:44,000
Bones, vegetables,
Fruits and fish.
247
00:13:47,137 --> 00:13:51,172
She transfers the minced
Raw ingredients to a mixer.
248
00:13:53,862 --> 00:13:56,655
The revolving paddles
Further blend the food.
249
00:13:59,793 --> 00:14:02,103
After about 5 minutes
In the mixer,
250
00:14:02,103 --> 00:14:04,000
All the ingredients
Have been combined
251
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,586
Into one homogeneous raw mass.
252
00:14:08,724 --> 00:14:11,724
This chicken blend
Is now complete.
253
00:14:11,724 --> 00:14:14,689
The worker divides
It into 5-pound batches
254
00:14:14,689 --> 00:14:16,689
And scoops it into bags.
255
00:14:21,103 --> 00:14:23,758
She vacuum seals the bag.
256
00:14:23,758 --> 00:14:25,448
Removing all the air inside
257
00:14:25,448 --> 00:14:29,379
Will allow the raw blend
To stay fresh longer.
258
00:14:29,379 --> 00:14:33,413
Refrigerated, it should last
For up to 10 days and,
259
00:14:33,413 --> 00:14:37,103
If frozen, it should be good
For several months.
260
00:14:37,103 --> 00:14:39,586
For the furry members
Of the family,
261
00:14:39,586 --> 00:14:41,793
Dinner is ready to be served.
262
00:14:44,758 --> 00:14:46,689
To make some raw pet snacks,
263
00:14:46,689 --> 00:14:48,586
A worker de-shells
New zealand
264
00:14:48,586 --> 00:14:50,103
Green-lipped mussels,
265
00:14:50,103 --> 00:14:53,137
A species that is believed
To have fast-acting
266
00:14:53,137 --> 00:14:56,793
Anti-inflammatory properties.
267
00:14:56,793 --> 00:14:59,896
After she cuts the mussels
Free from the shells,
268
00:14:59,896 --> 00:15:02,896
She places them on racks
For air-drying.
269
00:15:05,758 --> 00:15:08,379
She transfers the rack
Into a drying tent
270
00:15:08,379 --> 00:15:11,586
Where fans keep air
Circulating 24 hours a day.
271
00:15:11,586 --> 00:15:16,931
As the mussels dry, they shrink.
272
00:15:16,931 --> 00:15:18,965
After 72 hours
In the tent,
273
00:15:18,965 --> 00:15:23,655
The moisture content
Is substantially reduced.
274
00:15:23,655 --> 00:15:26,206
Air drying has preserved
The flesh of the mussels
275
00:15:26,206 --> 00:15:27,413
In the raw state
276
00:15:27,413 --> 00:15:29,689
While preventing damage
To the nutrients
277
00:15:29,689 --> 00:15:31,793
And enzymes they contain.
278
00:15:33,793 --> 00:15:35,172
Now preserved,
279
00:15:35,172 --> 00:15:37,586
She packs the mussels
Into plastic bags
280
00:15:37,586 --> 00:15:40,724
And adds an iron
Oxide packet to absorb oxygen
281
00:15:40,724 --> 00:15:42,551
And prevent spoilage.
282
00:15:44,620 --> 00:15:50,000
This raw pet food is now ready
To nourish the wolf in your dog.
283
00:16:02,620 --> 00:16:04,827
Narrator: before the invention
Of electricity,
284
00:16:04,827 --> 00:16:07,482
Criminal acts were
Hidden by darkness.
285
00:16:07,482 --> 00:16:09,724
Police officers carried
Special lanterns
286
00:16:09,724 --> 00:16:12,000
As they pursued suspects.
287
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,206
Today, craftsmen replicate
These lanterns for the movie
288
00:16:15,206 --> 00:16:17,137
And television industries.
289
00:16:17,137 --> 00:16:18,931
These props are authentically
290
00:16:18,931 --> 00:16:21,965
Replicated pieces
Of police history.
291
00:16:21,965 --> 00:16:25,068
With a thick bull's-eye lens
292
00:16:25,068 --> 00:16:27,206
To magnify the light
From the flame,
293
00:16:27,206 --> 00:16:29,344
The 19th-century police lantern
294
00:16:29,344 --> 00:16:33,758
Helped find bad guys
On shadowy streets.
295
00:16:33,758 --> 00:16:37,000
To replicate
A vintage police lantern,
296
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,000
The craftsman starts
With a piece of steel.
297
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,965
Using a scribe, he traces
Around a pattern
298
00:16:42,965 --> 00:16:45,482
To transfer the outline
To the blank.
299
00:16:45,482 --> 00:16:49,379
He marks notches for hinges
And for the latch
300
00:16:49,379 --> 00:16:53,448
And etches the shape of the lens
Hole in the center.
301
00:16:53,448 --> 00:16:57,379
He draws two diagonal lines
In the lens hole area.
302
00:16:57,379 --> 00:16:59,931
The point where the lines
Intersect determines
303
00:16:59,931 --> 00:17:02,482
The exact center.
304
00:17:02,482 --> 00:17:06,517
He punches a divot into
The steel at this cross point.
305
00:17:10,620 --> 00:17:12,482
He scribes lines
Along the edges
306
00:17:12,482 --> 00:17:16,379
For bending into
A reinforced border later on.
307
00:17:17,517 --> 00:17:20,517
He cuts out the hinge
And latch notches following
308
00:17:20,517 --> 00:17:23,275
The transferred pattern lines.
309
00:17:25,758 --> 00:17:30,137
Next, he aligns
The center divot with a punch
310
00:17:30,137 --> 00:17:32,620
And then activates the punch
To cut out the hole
311
00:17:32,620 --> 00:17:35,482
For the lantern lens.
312
00:17:35,482 --> 00:17:37,517
The craftsman now bends wire
313
00:17:37,517 --> 00:17:41,103
To match the profile
Of the lantern door.
314
00:17:41,103 --> 00:17:45,000
He aligns the wire
With the scribed lines
315
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,379
On the edge of the door
316
00:17:47,379 --> 00:17:49,965
And folds the metal over it.
317
00:17:49,965 --> 00:17:54,931
Bending the door to the correct
Curvature completes the part.
318
00:17:54,931 --> 00:17:56,448
Following another pattern,
319
00:17:56,448 --> 00:17:58,413
The craftsman marks the location
320
00:17:58,413 --> 00:18:00,172
For vent holes in the blank
321
00:18:00,172 --> 00:18:04,517
That will become
The lantern's main structure.
322
00:18:04,517 --> 00:18:07,137
He cuts out the vent holes
Where he's made the marks
323
00:18:07,137 --> 00:18:09,310
Using a hand-operated punch.
324
00:18:12,241 --> 00:18:15,034
He then rolls the blank
Into a cylinder.
325
00:18:15,034 --> 00:18:18,068
It takes a couple of passes
326
00:18:18,068 --> 00:18:20,655
To achieve
The correct curvature.
327
00:18:22,862 --> 00:18:26,034
Moving on to the lantern's
Lens holder,
328
00:18:26,034 --> 00:18:29,482
The craftsman crimps
A bead around one end.
329
00:18:29,482 --> 00:18:31,137
This bead helps to retain
330
00:18:31,137 --> 00:18:33,758
The bull's-eye
Lens in the holder.
331
00:18:33,758 --> 00:18:37,000
Returning to the lantern body,
332
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,241
He hammers the top rim
Around the cap.
333
00:18:40,241 --> 00:18:43,482
He preps the surface
For soldering
334
00:18:43,482 --> 00:18:47,965
With a chemical
Cleaning agent known as flux.
335
00:18:47,965 --> 00:18:49,689
He then solders the joint
336
00:18:49,689 --> 00:18:52,000
To secure the top
To the lantern.
337
00:18:54,724 --> 00:18:57,482
He also solders
A raised panel to the back.
338
00:18:57,482 --> 00:19:01,689
This substantial panel serves
As support for handles.
339
00:19:05,862 --> 00:19:08,862
He then cleans the solder
Joints with acetone.
340
00:19:11,517 --> 00:19:14,517
Next, he wraps metal hinges
Around the wire
341
00:19:14,517 --> 00:19:17,517
That runs through
The notches in the door.
342
00:19:17,517 --> 00:19:20,034
He crimps the hinges
Together at the ends
343
00:19:20,034 --> 00:19:23,034
And positions the door
On the lantern body.
344
00:19:23,034 --> 00:19:24,310
He adjusts the hinges
345
00:19:24,310 --> 00:19:28,241
So the ends
Sit level on the lantern.
346
00:19:28,241 --> 00:19:31,793
He solders the hinges
To the steel structure.
347
00:19:37,103 --> 00:19:39,000
The craftsman inserts
The bull's-eye lens
348
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:40,689
Assembly into the hole
349
00:19:40,689 --> 00:19:42,793
In the center
Of the lantern door,
350
00:19:42,793 --> 00:19:45,482
And he solders the joint.
351
00:19:45,482 --> 00:19:46,793
He pins and solders
352
00:19:46,793 --> 00:19:49,000
The two tiers
Of a copper chimney.
353
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,000
He places the chimney
Over the hole in the top
354
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,482
Of the lantern
355
00:19:53,482 --> 00:19:57,413
And tucks more pins
Into holes in the chimney.
356
00:19:57,413 --> 00:20:00,241
The craftsman installs
A decorative part in the top,
357
00:20:00,241 --> 00:20:03,206
One that won't obstruct
The chimney hole.
358
00:20:03,206 --> 00:20:05,758
He assembles the handles
To the raised panel
359
00:20:05,758 --> 00:20:07,448
At the back of the lantern.
360
00:20:10,275 --> 00:20:14,241
Once the soldered seam
Hardens, he files it down.
361
00:20:14,241 --> 00:20:18,793
The craftsman tests the latch
On the door and confirms
362
00:20:18,793 --> 00:20:20,862
That it operates perfectly.
363
00:20:23,758 --> 00:20:26,103
After taping up
The lens and handles,
364
00:20:26,103 --> 00:20:28,551
He spray paints
The lantern black.
365
00:20:30,896 --> 00:20:34,275
Now it's time to assemble
The oil-burning mechanism.
366
00:20:34,275 --> 00:20:36,137
First, the craftsman melts
367
00:20:36,137 --> 00:20:38,551
Solder onto a threaded
Brass collar
368
00:20:38,551 --> 00:20:41,620
And transfers it
To the oil tank.
369
00:20:41,620 --> 00:20:44,655
He reheats the solder
To melt it into the joint.
370
00:20:47,517 --> 00:20:49,413
He inserts the wick in the tank
371
00:20:49,413 --> 00:20:51,793
And screws the burner
To the collar.
372
00:20:55,241 --> 00:20:58,931
And that completes
The lantern's light source.
373
00:20:58,931 --> 00:21:03,000
This replica police lantern
Will be a working prop
374
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,793
Designed to shine on tv
And the movies.
