knows how to
SW do it and web isn't very much help on this subject.

I've seen it done by a cook who came out of the kitchen and
pulled noodles in the middle of a vietnamese restaurant. It was
rather a virtuoso performance and rightly got a round of
applause. I would not attempt it myself unless I could take a
bath afterwards and didn't really want the noodles :-)
