I'm an 83 year old retired Mfg Eng. I started my career almost 60 years ago in Glens Falls NY USA in a machine shop that used even older machining equipment than yours. What you can accomplish with yours is very impressive!

Great to see these seasoned machinist doing real machine work. No computers here. Real men. Real machinist. 👍

I just love the way these workshops are spotlessly clean, and all the safety wear is the best available!!! Those safety flipflops are something else! However, these guys do a remarkable job.

These are the machines and type of skilled machinists that built all the great machinery of the first half of the 20th century and it's two great wars...I send my respects.

These are very hard working men. They do amazing things with very little tools to work with. I admire them Bob Robertson Rake Iowa

Old mining mechanic. This is what Amy and Europe industry once was, with reliable equipment and skilled manpower. . Now we know where the equipment went when greedy corporations destroyed America.

Die Arbeitsweise finde ich ja schon immer sehr interessant, was mich aber immer wieder am meisten begeistert sind die Sicherheitsschuhe und vor allem der geile Schweißschirm👍🤣🤣🤣

All round a great skill pool , great to see these machine shops doing just fine . Pity so many have been purposely close down in the US , Britain and Europe, one day we again we need these skills , engineers build the world , bravo to one and all ……

These guys are so good at machining and all work together to get the work done and what a great job they did here I would like to watch these guys live. Know CNC machines hear guess what there so good they don’t need CNC machines all old school and they pass there skills down to the next generation. Any one know what that big wheel was for because I not sure. I’m going to watch the next video. One thing I love them old machines. 💪💪💪

I enjoy these videos seeing what the workers can accomplish with what their employer’s supply them with.

A big job and mostly well done , cooling the shaft down and heating the hub up probably would have made it a bit easier to install the shaft but brute force works to.
