The Secret Life of Components is a new series that provides guidance about specific materials that are often used by makers and designers. The series hosted by artist Tim Hukin (previously). Hunkin, whose 1979 arcade game inspired The Disgusting Spectacle project by Tracy Feldstein and Don Bruce, offers excellent real life demonstrations and very usable advice in this series, one component at a time.

The first episode focuses on chains.
