I don't think I have seen this posted anywhere. It's pictures and descriptions of the process of making ebonite! From beginning to end... enjoy.

Wow, pretty involved process - very industrial. I wonder if that "factory" was in Germany or Italy?

Thanks for tracking that down!

That's Tom Westerich's site. Very cool guy. And I'm pretty sure that's in Germany.

I love to see how things are made! I would really like to try some of the brightly colored stuff.
