How It's Made

Season 19 Episode 8: Bamboo Bicycles, Chainsaw Art, Breath Mints, Manual Motorcycle Transmissions

Selected bamboo tubes are dried, treated and joined to form lightweight bicycle frames. Artists transform large logs into sculptures with chainsaws; flavouring and sweeteners are mixed, compressed and finished as breath mints; and precision-cut gears and shafts are assembled into manual motorcycle transmissions.
