Check it out... Good video, even if its a little dated. Sort of big, 46mb, but I think its worth the watch.

It would be cooler to see this in person. Does any of the pball making places do tours and where are any of them located?

I bet that place smells horrible.

Thanks for the vid. I think I saw that on T.V. a few months ago, or something similar.

I think most of us had an idea how they were made, but I'm sure most of us have never seen the actual process.

I dont know if they give tours to jsut everyone, but the owner of pball atlanta where i used to work got a huge tour of RP Sscheur factoy. But that was becasue we bought all of our paint form them and it was a shiza load.

it reminded me of the kind of video made in the 80's that you watch it science class when the teacher feels like taking a day off :) , u know there usually about photosynthesis or how granite becomes diamonds (i dont even think that happens but u know what i mean)

Very interesting video.





That last sorting step reminded me of an idea I had for a loader design.





wantamag: was that sarcasm?

The wife is a geology geek (and has a degree in it) so...

Diamonds are formed at the core/mantle boundry, it's just plain carbon there. Charcoal is what's left from burning wood in a low o2 env, there is none of that at the core/mantle boundry.

That was definately a fun watch, thanks for posting :)

I want a job in a paintball making factory, ahaha... Looks like this was at the Draxxus factory judging by the stickers on the tumble dryer at the end.

highly entertaining, mildly arousing.
