Curious viewers of everyday engineering
Worth noticing
The prototype lock workbench lists 110 × 1,000-foot chambers and an 85-foot lift in three steps.

Field notes

The listed episodes move from car rain sensors and fuel nozzles to the Panama Canal and microwave ovens. The sourcing section says unsupported lines are cut and schematic drawings or simulations are labeled as illustrative or not to scale. A separate prototype models Gatun's locks with 110 × 1,000-foot chambers; its displayed best-play estimate for lifting one ship is about 23.3 million gallons.
