please find the engine for the 221 armoured car i would love to see it in the armour fest in some time im part german and love looking at the tanks you guys have restored
May as well make it a runner after going thru all this trouble. Throw in a modern driveline and uses it for parade duty. Do a Colab with the Skid Factory, and find a sponsor like SuperCheap Auto.

The first six weeks is absolutely terrible and life changing. The next 17 years is just expensive. After that life gets a little easier, if your body is still in good nick and you still have some coins to rub together!
I watch a modeller from over that way somewhere. Awesome talents but I haven't seen him post for a while. I must see if I have missed some of his videos.
Daryl being a carpenter is certainly paying its dues it’s bad enough cutting timber to odd shapes and angles for precision fitting but to cut , bend and fit metal can be a bloody nightmare, you blokes are geniuses
The fact that such a part of the vehicle can be created from very little source material and a model is amazing. That such a mud guard could be designed, fabricated and bent all ends up out of a single sheet in the mid-1930s in mind boggling.
As a tradesman myself, not in this field, but back in 83, when you had to do an apprenticeship AND pass, I really appreciate what Daz and the rest of the blokes do, I love watching craftsman.
I always get my coffee and sit with my breakfast, and off Workshop Wednesday goes! Makes my Wed mornings! And I do ever so love watching you artists fabricate! I could watch that all day!
I watch it while eating dinner. Workshop Wednesday is the high point of my week! (Though it sucks hearing the music as you know the episode is 2:30 from the end!)
I look forward W. W. so much I can't tell you, a bit late this week as I was a little busy. The fabric skills are so worth watching, learnt so much. I hope the 221 eventually will be able to run rather than be a static display it so deserves this. Thanks Kurt for this and all the best to Jesse and his new family 😊
It has a "stealth" look to it with all those angles. Very cool looking vehicle. The Germans were remarkable designer, fabricators. Impressive workmanship by these gentleman. Very impressive
Jesse, best of luck with your gift of fatherhood. You will find no greater challenge and no greater reward than that of being a father. Cherish every challenge as believe me when I say it is all over much, much too soon.
Spectacular work on those fenders. Just incredible the detail you guys are putting into that machine. A work of art. Thanks again Kurt for another awesome video. Looking forward to fix it Friday with Steve. Have a great weekend.
My best to you and your family Jesse!! Being a dad is amazing. Good luck. Love this show and these guys and the incredible collection. This collection is better serviced and maintained than the US Military Collection at ft. Moore
Amazing restoration work, you guys. I really enjoy this UA-cam channel. These vehicles would be my father's era, and perhaps he saw one in action fought in the 1st infantry of the US Seventh Army from North Africa to Rome, and beyond through France and Germany. I enjoy your world with bits and pieces and recreating from the ether a machine, headaches and all.
Love watching the work done in your shops. This channel and Engels Coach Shop are favorites for the fabrication work and attention to detail in re-creating historical vehicles/wagons. Keep up your exemplary work.
I will repeat what I said some time ago about these blokes. They don't just restore tanks - they build tanks. I am always impressed by their skills and determination to get the best of the job done.
I think what is for me the ultimate complement is that I watch this at ... ummm .. 5:27 AM .. and can't wait to get to my shop on my own project .. I salute these "makers" .. and am fired up to follow them and get to work creating.
You guys are living the life! Scratch building in 1:1 scale with metal and using a 1:35 scale model of a SdKfz 221, (and Hillary Doyle drawings), to reference it. Where us long time scale modelers would be referencing the 1:1 scale example, (also using Hillary Doyle drawings), ang scratchbuilding it in plastic. (Well, at least that's how it used to be, because now you can have a model of damn near anything in 1:35th scale via injection molding, resin molding or 3d printing). This looks to be a case of llfe imitating art, imitating life, with the exception of a few original peices. The finished piece will be awesome I'm sure. I'm so loling forward to the next installmt! 👍
This is really cool. I’m a WWII enthusiast, mainly because my grandfather was an Alpino, Italy’s specialist commando unit that operated in the Alps. When Mussolini came into power he joined the partisans and fought behind enemy lines conducting espionage and other operations. I joined the Australian Army when I was 17 because of him. He passed many years ago but I maintain my connection to him through his passion of military service by collecting and learning about everything WWII related. If I ever make it up to Cairns I’ll definitely give you guys a visit.
Great work!! Especially considering all of you reference material consists of one pile of rust, three grainy photos, and a plastic model. Don't imagine many would have attempted this endeavor.
They make it look easy. Would you consider a 'behind the scenes' video, showing how Kurt and the boys work together to shoot these videos? I'm constantly wondering how you stay out of their way, yet get such great video.
I would love to see an episode on the machinery you have. The press and some of the other machines look like the sort of things that could kill the Terminator. They must have some history.
I wish these excellent guys would put fully working examples of this marvellous armoured car into production - it's an ideal vehicle for some of our inner city areas...
Most impressed by the workmanship and skill of everyone involved. Well done and keep up the good work. Plus. Thank you for making these videos. Most enjoyable 👏👏👏

Have ever heard of a mobile game called WWA RTS It is a WW2 strategy game that has a model of a SD.KFZ.222 model.
May as well make it a runner after going thru all this trouble. Throw in a modern driveline and uses it for parade duty. Do a Colab with the Skid Factory, and find a sponsor like SuperCheap Auto.
Did the mudguard design stay the same from 221-261?
What is the tool (disregarding price or space) you would like to have in the shop that would make these restoration projects easier?
It's not a Wednesday till I've heard Kurt say 'welcome to workshop Wednnnesdayyyy!'....
Why does he elongate the word like that?
@Mann528 because it's catchy... Got you thinking about it and when you hear it you know what time it is
@@entropyachieved750 OMG yes mate, he’s fucking smooth with it now. Makes my Wednesdays 🤣
Best of luck Jesse on your journey into fatherhood, the first 18 years are the worst 🙂
The second 18 can be pretty challenging as well. 🙄
@@Torana-gz5lsyou got that right.

Greetings from Poland for 1/1 scale modellers :D
I watch a modeller from over that way somewhere.
Awesome talents but I haven't seen him post for a while.
I must see if I have missed some of his videos.
@@oldbloke204 Plasmo I'm guessing. He said that he is working on his grandparents' flat if I'm not mistaken and that would take a few months.
@@antonyt3446 Yep that's him.
Cheers.
Greetings!
Daryl showing how it should be done, I’m always impressed by the workmanship in this place.
The skill of you guys never ceases to amaze me
The talent pool in this shop is amazing.
A REAL group of fitters and fabricators !
Congrats for Jesse , fatherhood is a big one. Stoked to see Daryl smash it out over the weeks!
I build 1/35 scale models, and it is hard as hell to get the fenders to meet the hull in a pre molded model. Amazing 😂🎉
Thank you for another fantastic workshop Wednesday. The craftsmanship of your entire team is always pleasure to see.

Wow, it's coming along Swimmingly... And Kurt, best WORKSHOP WEDNESDAY Yet. 16:39
If it helps tell Darryl that when he hit his funny bone, I didn't feel a thing!
Awesome work as always team
No matter how many times I cut something. It's always too short. It's so nice to see master craftsman at work.
Cut it again to see if it's right!
Every boy's dream is building a 1:1 Airfix kit. The work is beyond brilliant. And a shout out to Papa Jessie from Germany!
As a tradesman myself, not in this field, but back in 83, when you had to do an apprenticeship AND pass, I really appreciate what Daz and the rest of the blokes do, I love watching craftsman.
Good morning from Virginia! Once again the magic of craftsman is astounding! The team never fails to deliver quality work!
Congratulations to Jesse! 🎉 By the way thank you Kurt for the episode! Great to see Deryl and Jesse work on the Sonderkraftfahrzeug.
I always get my coffee and sit with my breakfast, and off Workshop Wednesday goes! Makes my Wed mornings! And I do ever so love watching you artists fabricate! I could watch that all day!
I watch it while eating dinner. Workshop Wednesday is the high point of my week! (Though it sucks hearing the music as you know the episode is 2:30 from the end!)
The craftsmanship is outstanding but the teamwork is what makes it all happen.
Holy smokes, but Daryl is like a surgeon with that cutoff wheel! Freehand beauty!
I look forward W. W. so much I can't tell you, a bit late this week as I was a little busy. The fabric skills are so worth watching, learnt so much.

It's gunna be a real beaut when it's finished!🤗
Amazing work Darryl, good luck Jesse, it’s a hell of a ride!
Love my Wednesday dose of metal magicians and wizards.
Jesse, best of luck with your gift of fatherhood. You will find no greater challenge and no greater reward than that of being a father. Cherish every challenge as believe me when I say it is all over much, much too soon.
These guys have the best job ever. I love metal work and WW2 kit. I'm so envious!!!😢
You fellas are just the best, what a team!
Attention to detail boys to notch . Amazing skills
Spectacular work on those fenders. Just incredible the detail you guys are putting into that machine. A work of art.
Thanks again Kurt for another awesome video. Looking forward to fix it Friday with Steve. Have a great weekend.
That's some mad skill freehanding those curves and fit up with an angle grinder.
You are such lucky guys to have all that wonderful metalworking machinery to play with.
Great work as always. 👍
Your attention to detail even for a static display is AWESOME 🤠
Love the “UN-funny bone” comment.
Most accurate!!
My best to you and your family Jesse!! Being a dad is amazing. Good luck. Love this show and these guys and the incredible collection. This collection is better serviced and maintained than the US Military Collection at ft. Moore
Congrats to Jesse and his wife!

Looking fantastic..taking shape
That’s some beautiful metal fab work there Daryl & Jesse 👍
The boys are masters of their craft 👍👍👍
So great to see this coming along. Still patiently waiting for the KV-1 you guys were teasing...my favourite tank of the war!
Simply AMAZING !!!
Real craftsmanship. Hypnotic to watch:-)
Amazing. You have a fan on Maui! Love this show and hope to come and see the museum one day in person
Congratulations Darryl, fantastic work on the mudguards and muffler 😁👌👌👌👌❤️❤️🇦🇺
Love watching the work done in your shops. This channel and Engels Coach Shop are favorites for the fabrication work and attention to detail in re-creating historical vehicles/wagons. Keep up your exemplary work.
I recommend Matt’s of road recovery if you like Mr Engels and Aus Armor. His building of off road recovery vehicles is quite impressive.
@@beulahalestick8297 Thanks!
These gentlemen are masters of their craft. Well done. 😊
❤ it and congratulations, Jesse.
I will repeat what I said some time ago about these blokes. They don't just restore tanks - they build tanks. I am always impressed by their skills and determination to get the best of the job done.
True craftsmen! I love watching them fabricate new pieces.
Looking good, chaps. As always, thanks for sharing your passion with us. Always the highlight of the week!

Very satisfying to watch this sheet metal magic happen!
It's looking great guys! Looking forward to the finished article 😁😁😁😁👍👍

You lot are not just rebuilding and restoring, you are creating works of ART! Fabulous!
These guys are geniuses at fabrication.🇺🇸👍🏻⭐️
As a 1/35 scale armour modeller, I find it funny that you’re using a model kit as a reference. Anyway, you’re doing an amazing job!
Seriously you guys are just brilliant, I would love to have 1/10th of the knowledge for fabrication that you do. Awesome job
I can only wonder how many times I would have made those mudguard pieces until I got it right...IF...I got it right.
The boys are brilliant.
So nice to watch 1/1 actual size building of German Sdkfz221 ! 😊👍
darrel is a beast ! welding, grinding w/o gloves 😅😅😅

Great job again! These guys are real experts. 😊
Great work gentleman. Keep it up. 😉
Fair play to Daryl Do! He nailed those angles!!
Sorta looks like a precursor to the Tesla Cybertruck. Another great episode. Thanks.
is very cool that you guys are using these 1/35 models to see the details to build the car like the muffler.
Amazing craftsmanship. Great work, you guys are masters.
There is no doubt about it you guys are the creame on the cake the Gerry’s would be proud of you
Brilliant! Love your videos here in UK👍🏻🇬🇧
Almost time to load the boys and go on an adventure!
Great work!!
Especially considering all of you reference material consists of one pile of rust, three grainy photos, and a plastic model. Don't imagine many would have attempted this endeavor.
Beautiful work Guys excellent!!
Amazing progress! The 221 really deserves to be a runner, it seems like it would be one of the easier ones to make drivable.
g’day from Newcastle NSW, nice work gentlemen 1 day ill get up north to see the museum
They make it look easy.
Would you consider a 'behind the scenes' video, showing how Kurt and the boys work together to shoot these videos? I'm constantly wondering how you stay out of their way, yet get such great video.
Piece of art!
Absolutely AWESOME channel, I love the work you guys do, true craftsmanship
Great work! I think you should make it run after all that work! Very impressing job.
You guys are awesome!
Wow! it's looking great!
I would love to see an episode on the machinery you have. The press and some of the other machines look like the sort of things that could kill the Terminator. They must have some history.
Nice having a 1/35 scale kit for reference. Super job Daryl.
i never skip a second in these videos... can't say that about any other channel!!
As a model builder, I love how you use a kit as a reference. But also as a modeler, I know that many kits have errors when compared to the real thing.
One of my frst Tamiya model kits was one of these, to see it coming to life in full size is amazing and incredible work. thanks fellas.
unbelievable great! Thank you , guys
Awesome work and skill ! But Daryl use some ear protection ! Ever heard of Tinititus ? In my industrie we have custom made earplugs ,thank god .
I wish these excellent guys would put fully working examples of this marvellous armoured car into production - it's an ideal vehicle for some of our inner city areas...
Best of Luck Jessy, that thing has a very menacing silhouette!
Beautiful, it's amazing the construction
Good as always 👌 👏
always amazing observe the work craftman !!!! congrats!!!! from Brasil!!!!!
Most impressed by the workmanship and skill of everyone involved. Well done and keep up the good work. Plus. Thank you for making these videos. Most enjoyable 👏👏👏
It is really impressive to see this coming together so well. From vision to a finished display. Wow.
Very beautiful work👍
