National Geographic (megafactories sink)

Watching the factory process from stainless steel sheets to finished sink was very interesting. The beginning process was taking a sheet of stainless steel through a series of hydraulic presses creating the sink indenting. From these hydraulic presses the sink went through punches to create the drain, spout hole, soap hole, and a third add on hole. The most interesting part of the sink process was the face that all of the polishing and edge smoothing was done by hand, I feel that theres always something to be said when a step in a machine manufacturing process is done by hand. it adds a sense of craft and delicious detail.
