While we are at it, the Engineering Guy has a really good youtube channel. His videos are not very frequent most of them does a great job explaining how mundane objects are designed and manufactured. I thought I was familiar with some of his subjects but I always end up learning something new after watching.

Personal favourites:

Aluminium cans: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUhisi2FBuw

Wind-up music box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COty6_oDEkk

My personal favourite is his analysis of Albert Michelson’s harmonic analyzer [1], a 19-th century mechanical Fourier Analysis machine.

I watched this series, seemed boring at first but really it is crazy what this machine does (with 19th century tech)

Definitely recommend this series (and the other videos)
