How It's Made

Season 15 Episode 8: Miniature Furniture, Garden Steam Locomotives, Hovercraft, Folding Bicycles

Craftspeople reproduce the joinery, upholstery and finishes of full-sized furniture in miniature. Precision-machined boilers, cylinders and running gear become working garden steam locomotives; lightweight hulls, flexible skirts and propulsion fans are assembled into hovercraft; and hinged frames with secure locking mechanisms allow bicycles to fold into compact packages.
