Nuno Felt, Drum Crushers, Kimchi, Parquet Floors

How It's Made – Season 29

Fine wool fibres are arranged over fabric and agitated until they bind together as lightweight nuno felt. Heavy steel frames and hydraulic mechanisms are assembled into machines that crush empty industrial drums; salted vegetables are seasoned and fermented into kimchi; and precisely cut pieces of hardwood are arranged into the geometric patterns of traditional parquet flooring.
