Gentlemen, congratulations! That was the most complete, well-filmed, and educational documentary I have ever seen. Whether for storage drums or ANY OTHER PRODUCT, it is a documentary video to be proud of and should be shown to every Mechanical Engineering graduate. It was easy to completely follow every stage in the process, and that is something I have never seen before. Even the fellow who rolled the finished product together at the end was careful to align the barrels "just right". Thank you for your effort.

Thanks, that production line is a thing of beauty. Here in the UK we used to call them 45 Gallon drums, but now 205 L. I was a Chemical engineer and spent many a happy hour with drum handling kit, these guys make it look so easy, but it is not easy. Kudos to the engineers who designed all that bespoke kit.

This was so amazing and intriguing to see this whole process of making drums seem so fluid and effortless. WOW. I just feel sorry for the guy inspecting the inside of the barrels - how many times a day does he have to bend forward and look into drums? He must have abs of steel. The Japanese sure know how to make stuff.

Nice video, thanks. This caused me to research the history of the (oil) barrel standard measure, which is interesting: August 31, 1866, PA USA - King Richard III's English wine tierce became the American standard oil barrel, bbl (42 US Gallons / 35 Imperial gallons). While the barrel as a unit of measurement for oil is 42 gallons, actual barrels used in industry are typically 55 US gallons (208 L). They are called 210 litre or 200 kg drums outside the United States.
