RIP the crayons left behind when the others were chosen. They were good soldiers

"secret powder"
*screws up list*

The machines that deal with the boxes impressed me the most. Imagine you had to pick up a box, fill it and then close it. Even if you did it for 25 years day in day out, you would occasionally not grip one, occasionally not be able to close the lid, yet this machine churns out thousands an hour and never messes up. The ingenuity that went into that is mind boggling!

3:42 can we get an amen for that one crayon that was left behind

[SerPurple]

Imagine that music being played 24/7 at the factory...

Please do a video of how manufacturing machines are made.

[chemicalwonderland]

can we take a moment to appreciate whoever designed all these machines??! incredible!

[thegamergirls]

I'm not gonna lie it takes someone to make a crayon but the people who made the machines are truly geniuses

3:50 ”The packaging line is entirely automated”.

“30, 000 crayons every hour”
My child brain: ...woah...

Even though it is Roseart, there is something ASMR about opening a fresh pack of crayons, admiring how pointy they are and taking a deep breath of their waxy goodness.

[kaiyost]

So you're telling me, if a crayon box is slightly empty it gets YEETED off of the conveyor belt????

[maryudomah]

“A drop a glue will do.
Unless it’s RoseArt; then you’ll need two!”

Even as a 7 year old I knew that RoseArt products were... ew.

[calicalico]

Whatever the "secret powder" is, Rose art needs less of it, and more pigment.

[SuV]

All those moving parts of the machines moving in exact synchrony.... It's amazing

[bubblemum]

Interesting video; pity it used RoseArt crayons, which break easily and which have a higher wax to pigment ration, resulting in fainter drawings.

[evelynlysandra]

Tbh tho rose arts crayons sucks! They break easily

[dominicberardi]

I'm sorry but I honestly think crayola is better than rose art crayons

[Rnaldo]

Whoever makes all these machines co-ordinate so well is a genius
