Video of Tube Manufacture
Not sure if these have been posted before, but they show the start to finish process of making tubes. Interesting stuff.







Think this is Paul Tilley's company?

Wow.That's incredible craftsmanship.

Makes the prices for new tubes look cheap!

Fascinating. Even with excellent ventilation, you've got to wonder about the health effects of working with big bowls of glue day after day.
