    Just commenting as an engineer on Jessie's seriously good fabrication skills, recreating a complicated part from 90 years ago when you only have a single somewhat worn and corroded part to work from requires top of the line skills, you are so lucky to have people with such skills in your workshop

    I’ve often read that machinery built by the German people prior to and during the 2nd World War was engineered to the maximum, just watching Jessie fabricating the suspension units shows how difficult it would have been back then without the technology of today, Jessie you are a fantastic engineer well done, as are all of the T A A A M fabricators and restorers also Kirt for the excellent filming and editing of this awesome series

    Just flew back to Melbourne from Cairns today.

Looks like I will need to make a special trip to Cairns and spend a few days dedicated to your museum. Love your work!

    What a very good episode this week all. Jesse you are a top notch fabricator mate, just as everyone showcased in these Workshop Wednesday videos working for the Aus Armour Museum are. That suspension unit is a work of art, and reverse engineering and making the missing three units is very hard to do accurately even when you are copying a rusty original. Looking forward to next weeks episode.

      Roy, I to was wondering where their plasma cutter was? I'm not sure if I have seen one in the workshop. Once you have one, you wonder how you ever got by beforehand! 😅
      Sure there is the oxy-axe but who wants to lug gas bottles around and have to bother with turning things on and off?

    Vundabar! It's fascinating to watch these guys succeed in getting into the minds of the German engineers who designed these vehicles. It takes a lot of practice to be able to weld a structure like this together, without having a jig to maintain the proper dimensions. Thin steel wants to warp as you weld it. Get fabrication skills!
