Charcoal making has come a long way.

It's amazing what can be automated. I am most impressed by the mechanical opening of the top of the charcoal bags before being filled. I can't even open one of those damned plastic produce bags at the grocery store. I need suction cups on my finger tips!

Hey Wayne, I can't believe you documented the lump charcoal you made me for last year's Secret Santa. :-) (But seriously, cool video.)

The entire collection of How It’s Made is on Max (HBO Streaming). I loved that show and have been watching them along with Mythbusters, also on Max.
