One thing that I love about Destin and smartereveryday is that he shows the exact same amount of interest and respect in everything and to everyone. He treats everyone from ceos down to low level works with the same respect, and give the same amount of attention and interest to stuff as big as rockets to stuff as small as single parts

As a retired technical instructor, I wish I'd had a video of this quality to introduce students to die design and stamping processes. Very well done.

As a manufacturing engineer, I am very excited about this series

[ClaptrapRapture]

My favourite thing about this video was seeing Destin's unfailingly polite manner with everyone he encountered, introducing himself and speaking to the people working while this filming is going on around them. I've sat working while someone brought a film crew past me and it was kinda awkward not being engaged fully, but talked about within earshot, feeling like a zoo animal. That and Destin always seems to have the right question to ask next, to distil this person's decades of experience into something the lay person can understand. Great video.

Dear Destin,

I just finished my apprenticeship as a toolmaker a month ago. My profession is to build such tools that you showed us in the very beginning of the video.

I am so honored that You shed some light on this field of work! It is incredibly fun and challenging to manufacture pieces in such tight tolerances out of hardened materials that are difficult to machine - there are parts for tools like this that have a tolerance window of just a few 10000s of an inch (0.001mm in metric), and they are to be expected to be perfectly right-angled at the same time.

I love the way you show up with enthusiasm to people who don't necessarily consider their job interesting. I see it alot in your videos where people seem hesitant to get into the details because they assume it's not that interesting to an audience, but your enthusiasm and engaged questions prompt them in a way that always reveals their depth of passion and knowledge.

I'm a CNC programmer, I assign toolpaths to machine parts used in progressive dies such as the ones shown in this video. The average age of our shop is finally going down. We have a lot of old timers reaching retirement. The youngest toolmaker (the guys that put together and test the dies) was 55 until a year ago. Now we have 3 guys under 30. The age gap is crazy.

As a mechanical engineering student from Germany it is really interesting to see the production and manufacturing technics of another country. I`m really stoked to see all the kinds of production systems from 3d laserprinting and all the other additive methods to CNC. Really happy about this upcoming deep dive. This already amazing channel got even better :) Greetings from Germany!

Cody the programmer is an inspiration. Overcoming obstacles, investing in his future, and making a big change after taking a chance.

As a Machinist, CNC programmer, and welder, I am extremely excited for this series

[mrericsully]

I've been a science teacher for 18 years and I'm beginning to see the movement of students pursuing trades rather than college degrees. This will help educate me, hopefully inform & encourage them, and change mindsets about the value of each kind of education.

[VVALTR]

I'm not American, but there is something really special about US manufacturing. I like the people and culture, the tools, all of it. Thanks for this series, looking forward to more.

The importance of this video and the coming series cannot be understated! You're doing some great work here, Destin!

[maltezachariassen]

One wonderful thing about Destin's videos, is that he makes a point of actually trying to meet, introduce himself to- and learn the names of every person in the assembly-line - WHILE simultaneously respecting the workers' time and work. I've seen too many documentaries that uses a voice-over while looming over some nameless, faceless worker. Watching these videos I actually get a feeling of how I feels working there. Plus - having Destin asking the "obvious" questions actually allows the workers to show their expertise as both skilled workers but also conveyors of information.

I am a CNC machinist that has returned to school for my mechanical engineering undergrad. This series is extremely exciting. I can’t wait to get back into manufacturing!

[jameswhyte]

Hey Destin, I’m a Canadian high school student and I have had the opportunity to take many manufacturing classes, our school shop is fortunate to be one of the best outfitted school shops, and I have an amazing teacher who shows the importance of precision machining and being prepared for the future of machining, we learn full CNC, CAD and Plasmacutting operations through immersive projects. Our school also runs a electric race car completely designed and fabricated in house that helps to show the importance of precision and quality in large scale projects. So it’s really interesting to see just how applicable these skills are in industrial manufacturing

[mattm]

As an engineer who previously worked as a tool design engineer for sheet metal stamping in the aerospace industry, I absolutely love this video. This is a video that engineering students should watch in college to learn about manufacturing.

[krispockell]

Seeing Destin treat all the operators like people is my favorite part of this video!

[jessestites]

My father was a T/D machinist for 35+ years and this brought a tear to my eye, I was in the Navy and the career I found when I got out I have to use a series 1 Bridgeport and a Monarch 10ee lathe, and I can almost hear his voice or hand on my shoulder as I operate those machines. I LOVE THIS SERIES!

[yukitora]

I would love to see more of Destin doing the "dirty jobs" thing but with skilled trades and focusing on how great these people are rather than the undesirable parts
