I love manufacturing, and I'd like to encourage more young people to develop the skill required to support American Manufacturers. If you're a manufacturer who may be interested in me visiting your facility, feel free to fill out this contact form:

Thank you for watching my videos. I'm very grateful.
An extra special thanks to Dad (Darryl Sandlin) for teaching me cool stuff and fostering a sense of curiosity.

It is incredible how many hands touch almost everything that you use or buy. When you just buy a thing in a slick box it's easy to forget that there are dozens if not hundreds of people working with their hands to make that very thing you are taking out of the box. This is a great dose of perspective of what it takes to get that thing into the box.

Thank you once again for stopping by Destin, we're excited to see more on the Fuel Injection side as well. Keep making things fun!

Your dad looked so happy to be there. He's incredibly intelligent and seeing his face light up was priceless. He knew everything that was going on there. Cherish those moments with him. 👍🏻

Side note: I wish my dad was a good man so that I could do cool things with him, but he's not. I hope to see more videos with your dad. It brings me joy seeing the joy you bring to him. He must be very proud you.

It's actually fascinating how the strategic planner and acquisitioner have a detailed idea on the whole manufacturing process. As an engineer i find that amazing !

[muldoon]

Absolutely do more of these on-site visits. This is like the 'How it's Made' series x 100.

Up next on Smarter Everyday we discover the magic that makes automatic transmissions work.

The American assembly line honestly just warms my heart. Fellow citizens making a quality product. Thank you, Holley.

I love how respectful Destin is to every employee he meets when touring these facilities.

Remember, folks: there is no value for these companies without labor. If your employees enjoy their job and are proud of their work, you will end up with a better product.

Destin: "That's a little bit different from what we did"
Dad: "That's better than your carburetor"

It's beautifull to see such a recognised brand, just open their factory for us to swatch without any weird secrecy or limitations. They're extremely proud of their craft and don't need to keep anything for themselves, just pure engeneering for our enjoyment.
Well except the blurry part, but that's just specific settings of the carburetor.

[jackodiamonds]

What's super cool about learning how a carburetor works is that it makes understanding how fuel injectors work (indirect especially) very simple. A fuel injector in the most basic way is just a fuel bowl of a carburetor that is pressurized to force fuel up to the valves inside the injectors which open in time with the coordinating piston, either by mechanical or electronic means.

[Zothaqqua]

For what it's worth, the carburettor on my outboard boat engine is almost exactly like your simple transparent one, except that it has a slow running bypass circuit, which is the only slightly complicated bit. It was great to see some details of the high end!

[peeewww]

"Does that make sense to you?"

*Dad smiles: "Absolutely"*

[herrbrahms]

I appreciate an executive who knows EXACTLY what is required to manufacture a complex piece of technology. Too many people with his title would hand wave away the details and say, "Oh, it's Larry's job to know how that works." Not Shane Weckerly.

[MoneySavingVideos]

Respect for the engineers and for the workers standing there 8 hours per day repeating the tasks.

This channel actually does what the name intends

[Calebscott]

this man made a series on nuclear submarines, and still finds carburetors fascinating. that level of curiosity and appreciation is what i strive for every day.

[thefinalkayakboss]

"This is the brain of the carburetor"

No. Its even better, its the physical embodiment of a mathematical formula, feed variables in, out comes the result.
-And that is cool beyond description.

26:03 "a simple device, people know how to work on them, they know what to do with them, they are affordable and they like them...and you can fix them anywhere, side of the road, something happens, you can get parts for them... and make them go it felt so good to hear after watching a lot of Louis Rossman videos and the fight for the "right to thanks for making this video Destin...it's got so much good stuff in it... dad, carburetors, manufacturing, jokes with the guys at work.... so good
