Well, if you like this, you might like to see a Brit TV special that's 
called 'Make Me A German', in which a British couple go to Germany to 
see what's different in their way of life. The husband goes to work in a 
small modern factory where they manufacture high-quality artists' 
pencils. It's an enlightening show in more ways than one, and well worth 
the time if you come across it. Sorry, I can't provide a link.
