2. Crown glass (window) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_glass_(window)

   Crown glass was an early type of window glass. In this process, glass was blown into a "crown" or hollow globe. This was then transferred from the blowpipe to a punty and then flattened by reheating and spinning out the bowl-shaped piece of glass (bullion) into a flat disk by centrifugal force, up to 5 or 6 feet (1.5 to 1.8 metres) in diameter.

3. Compression molding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_molding

   Compression molding is a method of molding in which the molding material, generally preheated, is first placed in an open, heated mold cavity. The mold is closed with a top force or plug member, pressure is applied to force the material into contact with all mold areas, while heat and pressure are maintained until the molding material has cured; this process is known as compression molding ...

   A dado rail, also known as a chair rail or surbase, [1] is a type of moulding fixed horizontally to the wall around the perimeter of a room. The dado rail is traditionally part of the dado or wainscot and, although the purpose of the dado is mainly aesthetic, the dado rail may provide the wall with protection from furniture and other contact.

5. Transfer molding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_molding

   Transfer molding (BrE: transfer moulding) is a manufacturing process in which casting material is forced into a mold. Transfer molding is different from compression molding in that the mold is enclosed [1] rather than open to the fill plunger resulting in higher dimensional tolerances and less environmental impact.

Cutting diamonds requires specialized knowledge, tools, equipment, and techniques because of its extreme difficulty. The first guild of diamond cutters and polishers (Diamantaire) was formed in 1375 in Nuremberg, Germany, [1] and led to the development ...

7. Thermoforming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoforming

   The shapes are trimmed. Thermoforming is a manufacturing process where a plastic sheet is heated to a pliable forming temperature, formed to a specific shape in a mold, and trimmed to create a usable product. The sheet, or "film" when referring to thinner gauges and certain material types, is heated in an oven to a high-enough temperature that ...
