I have nothing but respect for these men. It’s amazing to see this tried and true technology at work. Their craftsmanship should not be underestimated.

[@redr1150r]

Well, for 1 off jobs, it pays to know how to use the old equipment. I recently retired from being an aircraft structural mechanic and fabricator for 53 years. I used all of the old time forming equipment. English wheels, planishing machines, rollers, shrinking and stretching equipment. When the aircraft company tells you, that it will be 6 months before you can have a formed part, and I could have it for you in under 2 weeks, I was always given the task. You guys do amazing work.

[@michaelhorton1350]

NOTHING but great respect for these old-timers in young man’s garb. Aloha…

Machining in dinner jacket, that's class. and He is 100% clean. It's not the tools, but the skill of the craftsman

[@nottyash100]

I often wondered where all the old machines went, After most shops moved to C.N.C, I had many large lathes even larger than this One i remember well was a Churchill lathe and i had many dean smith and grace lathes, which i treasured , shame those arts are mostly lost but good luck to this shop may you manufacture for peace.

[@user-ev4rp3qb6x]

Churchill , Harrison and Colchester lathes , they went far and wide and are still doing there work with skilled men

[@valtertrader1167]

Very skilled people. Congratulations

Yeah.. very skillful huh!!😏

[@larryperdue508]

We may have modern machines but the principle is still the same keep up the good work 😊

[@Krispy1011]

These machines are probably old American made machines that were discarded for newer ones or from shut down US manufacturing plants - as all can see the still work and produce! Great job!

[@alro2434]

Mostly British, they were building & repairing steam railroad stuff more then 100 years ago.

[@Krispy1011]

@@alro2434 You could be right - but I worked in an old steel mill in the US and we had a huge machine shop that had dozens of these machines and they were all sold when newer machines were purchased - I'm not sure who bought them but i know they all went overseas

[@user-fl8ur9pj6j]

Такую работу не всякий сделает на современном оборудовании и инструментом. А эти ребята на таком старье сделали отлично. Заказчика устроило .Это главное.

[@benniebarrow348]

In the end a product is provided for a larger machine that needs it. Many people were employed and made salaries that fed families . Not everything can be made in a pristine, high tech, surgery room environment. Many have to do with what they have . If it meets the need then mission accomplished.

[@daveoatway6126]

I think most of the comments are complimentary to these men. They did what they had to do. No one was hurt so they applied sufficient safety practices. I bet there are not many machine shops in the US sthat could handle this! It would be returned to factory for a rebuild - for a lot more than these guys charged - IMHO. Thanks for the video.

[@wickedcabinboy]

@daveoatway6126 - do you really think if someone were hurt in this shop that would be shown on the video?

Fascinating. Looks like the setup could take longer than the actual milling time. Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed day.

[@nickshadow2622]

You are correct. Think about getting this thing about 80% complete, and miss a demension, making scrap.

[@slickmechanical]

Dudes are quenching the gear and a goat just strolls through the shop.

[@larryperdue508]

You should put old engine oil on your parts to keep them from rusting and it will improve the cut quality 😊

[@Brave2standalone]

I always wondered?!

[@stevefoose3206]

That's not a full heat treat. The ends were not hot enough on the shaft. So they just done the middle.

[@hubraumistdurchnichtszuers8694]

Wichtig ist nur die Härte auf den Zahnrädern.Die Welle sollte nur zäh sein. Es sieht etwas primitiv aus in der Werkstatt, aber für mich sind sie Meister ihres Faches.👍

[@professorg8383]

The gear teeth are all they are concerned with although it seemed pretty obvious the temperature was not the same on both gear faces. May not matter so much. It's probably going in an ancient machine that is probably slow speed. And no telling what steel grade this was, probably made from miscellaneous scrap steel. One typical issue in this part of the world is that they are pretty good at making something that looks like the original, bt their approach to metallurgy and material science is very crude at best. They probably overwork the machinery too. I've been in some 100 year old mills where they ad this size of equipment and it was originally built to last if you took good care of it.

[@riddle672]

I’m guess this is how the things were done back in the days almost everywhere ..now the technology, safety and understanding of machining have advanced ..

[@robertmalcolm8435]

machining is machining still the same today yeah you have CNC machines but with those you have to be a computer engineer also , they get the job done

I bet all these machines were made in England and still work flawlessly today !!!

[@brucejedwabny3473]

Saw this in South Korea, China and Brazil, it’s how it is and the workers are true craftsmen and take pride in their work. But yes the surroundings and safety aspect is nothing like in the States or European countries.

[@kabbey30]

You do know that these workers are not saving for new homes, cars or jewelry. These people wake up everyday with hopes of making enough money to fill their families bellies. Anyone who looks down on them needs to re-evaluate their lives.

[@user-ev4rp3qb6x]

[@scottdahl1938]

The lathe is practically buried in metal shavings. I suppose when it won't turn anymore they decide it's time to clean up.

Love the formal jacket “safety apparel” at 0:33. Very classy worker!😂

[@rexmundi8154]

Im a machinist in America and I wear and old sportcoat in the shop. It has a lot of handy pockets. I’m betting they have them because formal office wear is out of style in America and tons of it is going to Goodwill. A lot of them end up packed into bales and sold to rag buyers by the ton. Then they get shipped overseas and sold. There’s a guy who pioneered the process and he’s a multi millionaire now. I started because I thought it would be funny to wear an Armani suit jacket to work in a machine shop, but I found them to be very comfortable and handy. I eventually moved on to a Harris Tweed light wool one from Brooks Brothers of London

[@ismaelfranciscoalmeida6803]

E o dono e o filho do dono, a peça e cara 💰💰 😂😂😂

I see they have on their safety sandals, so that's good. I see an old shaper running in the background as.well.

[@Renovatio-BYH7]

I like the Goat walking by like he owns the place! Lots comments have been said so no need to mention them again. I believe these people very skillful folks making thigs happen with what they got. As an advice you should not use adjustable wrench tool. It will damage the bolt in time.

38 Rockwell is a bit low for hardness. However, the enterprise has done tremendous work and the basic principle and machinery is the same, this being the 1st generation tools, whereas Europe is on the 5th and 6th generation tooling.

[@drlegendre]

So where did that big forging come from? You need some fairly serious equipment to turn out parts that large & heavy.

Think the weight they say is a bit off..3000kg is 6600lb little over 3 1/4 tons...pretty small lathe for something that heavy

[@nickshadow2622]

My father repaired the machines that are making this shaft. Although he passed a lot of knowledge to me, I probably got about 10%. Also, I was wondering what the hell this thing goes into. We used to call the goes-in-tas. This goes in ta that, which goes in ta that, etc.

When We Closed Long Beach Naval Shipyard we had all this old technology that was fantastic. We had brand new 50 year old “Shipley & Lodge” lathes and mills which had 25 foot beds and 25 speeds. Most had only 200 hours on them. We sold them to many foreign buyers because America is so gullible and stupid to believe the think tank analyst opinion. This is why we had to retire the Iowa Class Battleships because we no longer have a yard capable of working on these formidable ships. My only fault is these Men have no safety culture to protect their health and bodies. Otherwise they are excellent craftsmen.
