Thank you! Would it be possible to share some of them (at least the ones that were most useful to you) with us so we can explore more on our own? I am particularly interested in the ball bearing hinge for the gate leaves, the rubber seals on the gate leaves to make them water tight and the self-dumping concrete bucket. I tried searching for more information on those but couldn't find anything.

For the Panama canal video we used more than 100 sources, both video and web article format. We researched this topic for more than 3 months.

I finally got around to watching this tonight. It was excellent as usual!! Thank you for making these videos. I learn a lot from them. May I ask what sources you used to find all this information you presented in the Panama Canal videos?
