Talk:How It's Made
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The wiki links in the episodes need some cleanup work. Are there any other resources on the internet or otherwise regarding this show other than the one official website? Abeneal 20:38, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
Can someone verify the comment in the trivia section claiming a human hand in the potato machine? This sounds like an urban legend.
Anybody have any information on the theme song and general soundtrack of the series?

- AFAIK, it's produced by somebody called Dazmo Musique, which appears to be these people: http://dazmomusique.com/. HIM wouldn't be the same without it though! KingDaveRa 13:00, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Season 3, Episode 31
If anyone's seen this episode, the part of horse drawn carriages is wrong. They clearly weld many parts, and every time, they say that they soldered it. Near the end in the making of the wheel, they solder it, and say "After a quick welding of the wires...". They got Soldering and Welding reversed. Any thoughts/confirmation?

- It could actually be right, if the article on Soldering is anything to go by. Carriages, being an old technology, using old techniques, would suggest they wouldn't be able to weld metal, but they probably could solder. Assuming they are building the carriages in a 'classic' way, it could well be right. It could still be wrong though! KingDaveRa 21:57, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Categorize items?
I wikilinked all the items and episodes, however maybe we can categorize every item covered. I want input before I embark since we're going to do over 100 articles! BuickCenturyDriver 04:56, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Mr. Rogers
The "Picture Picture" segments on Mr. Rogers have absolutely nothing to do with this series and the references to them should be removed.
- Why not, both the show and that specific content serve the same purpose, to show how things are made. BuickCenturyDriver (Honk, contribs, odometer) 02:40, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
- I'll admit that saying the Mr. Rogers pioneered the practice is outside of WP:NPOV, but it's verifiable that the show had factory segments. BuickCenturyDriver (Honk, contribs, odometer) 20:21, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
