| 5 :01x05 - U.S. Mint, Washing Machines, Fishing Rods (Jun/11/2008) | Learn why the United States Mint needs a pizza-sized sculpture to make heads and tails on quarters, and how tiny embedded details thwart counterfeits. Then, find out how a washing machine produces more G-forces than a shuttle liftoff, and how a spider-like part holds it all together. Finally, learn how today's fishing rods barely give the fish a fighting chance. They're strong, light and extremely flexible because they're made of a space-age miracle fabric: carbon fiber.

| 6 :01x06 - Windshields, Hang Gliders, Cessnas (Jun/11/2008) | Find out how much safety can be packed into a thin sheet of glass! Today's windshields are safe and can even double as a car radio antenna, too. Then, Factory Made takes you on a high-flying trip to a company that has been making hang gliders for decades. See how they turn over 1,000 parts into a safe aircraft that can fly high above the Earth, using only the wind for power. And finally -- from gliding to zooming: watch Cessna build its fastest jet ever. See how 8,000 pounds of metal is transformed into a sleek, ultra-modern flying machine.
