@@Shiva108 If you don't like unions, go to China. Those non-union workers live great there - and that could all be yours if you lived there. Import tariffs would solve the lack of USA owned heavy industry. Like the old days - made in USA. Wait a minute... republicans love free global trade. Guess we can't have that heavy industry here in the USA. Wait a minute... suppose there is a global war. Guess we ain't getting any necessary products here in the USA. Wait a minute... we'd have to kiss China's ass and bend over if that happens. At least the 1% wouldn't have to - they'll find a way to keep living large. Thank Heavens... we love free trade.

As someone watching from the US • Watching your videos is most relaxing even at 2 x speed. Hope your customers appreciate the skill talent and dedication of your workers for this very important job for the community • It’s good to see how well your crews understand the process of chain forging & manufacturing to get the job done efficiently - loads of experience is evident with this skilled set of workers • Watching your people doing a great job make me think there is hope for the other parts of society who don't even try to have a job. Your crew is a great role model for all of us • Thanks so very much for posting and sharing! All the best and God Bless. 🇺🇸

[@mephInc]

Those aren't frayed. The loops are hand woven. Pull the feral off of any cable and you'll see the same.

[@feynthefallen]

​@@mephInc I presume by woven you mean spliced, and that's just not true. Look at the cable laying on the floor right at the mark. The strands are coming out of it above the splice, which is definitely not good. Even if it were part of an eye splice, it would be a darn sloppy one, because you are supposed to clean up any excess of your splicing strands once you are done.

If you noticed the stud is pressed from the sides into softer red hot outer chain which locks itself into it.The weld is possibly to seal the edge to protect against moisture getting in.The reason for cold welding is it's most likely mild steel chain,you wouldn't weld a high tensile high alloy chain like that.

[@maxmaxime8380]

It's not that simple and it all depends on the industrial sector, depending on whether you work in iPhones or shipbuilding! . . China produces some quality products for foreign companies, under supervision of the quality of these companies, with a high defect rate, but produces most in heavy industry, like the one shown in this film, with quality standards very low. I was involved in the selection of Chinese companies for heavy industry subcontracting, and even with the lowest quality standards, they could not even qualify. I went to China to check the quality of the manufacturing and I blocked everything for months, on manufacturing that was not very complex to carry out. I could talk for hours about everything we saw! The only good thing is that their prices are the lowest in the market and no one can compete with them on price. But you have to accept to receive the quality you paid for....
