Manufacturing the plastic used in kayaks

[J.A. Veil]

This afternoon, I ran across a video shot at Mosaic Color & Additives, a leading manufacturer of the plastic polyethylene resins used to make rotomolded kayaks. The video is about 40 minutes long and gets technical at times. But I found it to be interesting. If you want to view it, go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFaQRg907fY.

In 2014, I visited Native Watercraft's factory in North Carolina to pick up a new kayak. While I was there, I was given a tour of the factory, which I found fascinating. After returning home, I posted a summary of the process in Snaggedline. Sadly, I am unable to find that post using the Search features. I suspect that the post was lost during the updating of the site in recent years. If any of you would like to see a written version of the factory tour, you can send me your email address.

John, here's your original thread:

It looks fascinating indeed, I'll check the video out when I have time.

Thanks Dave. I will have to play around more with the Search feature. It is not as easy as the previous version was.

I think the search feature on this site is unable to find posts from before the major update. I found your old post by searching on Google "site:snaggedline.com Native watercraft factory 2014". It's a useful workaround for the limited search functionality on this site.

That is an excellent work-around tip for finding old posts.

Excellent work around. I will have to remember that one.
