You know they’re good just from Beau wandering with a grin on his face! What a pool of skills and from Michaels comments about cast in Poland supporting more local industries too. Their museum will be well worth a trip when they get it going.
Thank you guys for restoring and saving history for all future generations! It's not about war and who's won what - it's about engineering at its finest for the periods that sadly was used for bad things. Saving history is about learning from the past, and if you're at the same time a bit of a tank aficionado like me and most of you here, then you're in for a treat watching our Aussie and Polish friends here! I only wish these videos were a couple hours each walking through the treasures at Panzerfarm, but every minute of it is awesome and I thank you for making the trip and the videos!
When they said they might get their Tiger running one day, I thought they meant decades away. This is so cool. Imagine if we see it headlining Ausarmourfest in a few years.
About 85 years ago, my ancestors unrightfully entered Poland and shamefully brought death and destruction, nowadays these guys from Panzerfarm as well as AusArmour restorate this technical stuff with absolute perfection. I hate the purpose, this machinery was made for, but I really enjoy and love the technical thing itsself. Thank you Panzerfarm and AusArmour for another wonderful vid.
Your ancestors were rightfully saving the lives of ethnic Germans who were being persecuted by the Bolsheiviks. You have been lied to by the victors, who write history. Be proud of your country and people. Even the US General Patton said; "We fought the wrong enemy." Germany fought with Christian honour!
That is one hell of a teaser to finish with...full working Tiger I with newly machined engine parts? Think that might just top the list of requests for Aus Armor Day!
The plus side is modern metalcasting and machining is far better so they will last way longer than factory stuff. Given the shortage of alloys and metals the germans faced during the war it is impressive some of the stuff they got built
It's really impressive how they combined ultra modern techniques like 3D scanning and printing with classic machinist skills to remake previously unreplaceable castings.
I will say it again, I just love Workshop Wednesday. Kurt & Beau, you both must have been drooling and smiling like children. I hope you took some shirts & caps for the Panzer Farm team. If it was me, I would be scoping one of their jackets. Great episode, Kurt your Polish is also incredible. Cheers
I’m glad to see a mixture of young and middle aged craftsmen working on these pieces of history I’ve heard that machinist are getting fewer and fewer but your videos give me hope.
Those maybach engines were working so hard to push a tank that was usually 10-15 ton heavier than what they were spec’d for. That is so thin between the cylinders, no wonder they self ventilated so easy, aside from inexperienced drivers. Thanks for sharing!
Yeah, I'm surprised that they tried to make those V12 engines so small. I would suppose the newer tanks like the King Tiger and Panther would have bigger engine bays that it would not have been necessary.
This show just gets better and better. This and last weeks episodes are awesome. Love how these Polish guys can turn out such high quality parts. Love this stuff!!!!
When I did my apprenticeship back in 1970, our training staff had an Ex RAF W/O Engineer who had been out in the Libyan Desert. He would tell us tales of all the Aero engine parts he and his unit used to MAKE when supplies had not come through, Marek at 15:16 is the spitting image of him, and I could see that same look in his eyes like there is NOTHING beyond his skill ! A bit like your young Beau. I would PAY to watch Marek making stuff, as I bet he would be as hypnotic as your tea in their artistry. Our Mr Brewster would ALWAYS just have turning formulae in his HEAD as well as an almost unlimited memory of all sorts of heating temperatures for different finishes etc ...ALL before CAD and calculators, only with SlideRules. I'm so grateful YOU guys are keeping those skills ALIVE
Thanks. All you grease-stained people are the heroes of my childhood dreams. I'm 63, and now have tears in my eyes from seeing so much dedication, search for perfection, pleasure and satisfaction. Wow.
It's amazing to see the amount of metal, special alloys, castings, and precise machining that went into things that were eventually going to be destroyed or break down and be abandoned, sometimes not long after they were made. That really stands out when looking at power plants.
Nie znam angielskiego, uczyłem się angielskiego, ale niestety nie nauczyłem się w ogóle. Przyznaję się szczerze, że głupio jest nie znac angielskiego w jakimś drobnym stopniu 😔 Oglądam wasze wszystkie odcinki. Proszę w imieniu Polaków nie znających języka angielskiego, o pozytywne rozpatrzenie prośby o napisy do waszych odcinków. Jest to chyba jedyny kanał, który rzetelnie z humorem, ogromną wiedzą, determinacja, pasją przekazuje fascynujące informacje;) Pozdrawiam serdecznie z Polski!!
The cumulative skill sets of all the old boys in that video is humbling, mad respect. Worked on enough old war era equipment in my youth to know they are in a class all to themselves.
What a gold mine you have discovered in this Polish engineering shop. Congratulations, may your collaboration with them deliver many more projects in your Smithfield Museum.
These guys are the real deal at Panzerfarm that can manufacture parts and do all the fitments necessary it's to bad they don't have a program ( a apprenticeship program ) for youth ,This is fascinating to me and I'm sure a lot of others
Happy wksp weds from UK, all those guys are so enthusiastic about what they are doing people like you keeps old machines and the skills needed to fix them alive . Long may that continue
Hiring . . . if only it was in Australia 40yrs as a Fitter and Turner CNC Machinist and 12yrs in Aerospace manufacturing for US defense. Damn its on the other side of the planet. Great vid🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
I saw al your videos and i have a great RESPEKT of your job. in germany we said I take my hat off to you and your work. And I think many of you don`t go to work, but to your hobby. Wonderful keep it up and many thanks from germany.😃😃😃
These Panzer Farm videos have been amazing, who wouldn't want to work there, everywhere you look, are more vehicles, parts and gifted and commited staff, great setup. Fantastic video.
Wow absolutely amazing to see all these vehicles and parts. One can almost feel the passion of these guys and all of you to . It definitely is an eye opener to see how much is still around. Greetings from a German in Western Australia 🇦🇺
The name Tadek is sacred to Aston Martin lore. I would love to go the the PZ Farm and muddle about whilst on holiday. Would like to volunteer for a week and work at their shop. I used to go to the Jaques Littlefield Collection, and help out the restoration team. Got to work on a Panther, Goliath, and a Sherman. Wonderful workmanship and video series!
Fantastic stuff! You folks are defining your niche perfectly in the burgeoning UA-cam afv restoration scene. Your tie up with the Panzerfarm is totally on point, coming just as Joe Hewes & The Tank Museum begin their co-operative FV4005 project.
Yeah, they have definitely scored full marks on the wow factor. I find it amazing that 80 years after the war there is still German equipment to be found. It isn't the thousand year Reich that Hitler promised but a much better one that serves as a reminder of those dark times that hopefully won't be repeated in the future. We owe a debt of gratitude to the Polish people for many reasons, this being yet another. I wish them loads of success going forward with this great project. Their craftsmanship is inspiring.
Wow! So impressed by the knowledge, skill , that is going through that workshop! It just blown me away if I am honest.. A collaboration of both restoration teams is fantastic news! Thanks for sharing this amazing place!
What a setup they have. I remember buying my daughter her first bike in 86. It was bult in Poland and was heavy as a panzer.🤣😂. Much respect from the U.S.
wow what an amazing place, You can tell Beau was so impressed he never spoke 😂😂. Its great to see how you acquire the parts for your projects and how they replicate them . this is what i love preservation of histort for future generations, Can't wait for part 3.
Notjing better than watching people passionate about what they do and keeping history alive for future generations to see what was being used to defend and attack no matter what country its all fascinating to see . To all you lads keep up the good work 👏 🙌 👍
That smile was priceless. Crazy how thin those Tiger cylinders were, folks who don't want to fight are hard on equipment and quick to use up their ammo. The level of detail gone into reminds me of @lottiethetankwhisperer which I just cannot get enough of, I love, love, love the details. I've spent a bit of time in Poland and this made me a bit "homesick" what professionals and as we'll see in the next one what technologists. My adventures are pointing more to AU than Europe at the moment I'm sure I could spend days in your museum. Are you hiring?
it would be amazing to see al and bronik collaborate on a project! you know youre in historic vehicle overload when you dont even notice a partial ketenkrad sitting there lol. cant blame you at all! its really cool to see young guys so into restoration and care of all these old vehicles. and youve got to admire panzerfarms attention to detail in making their replicas! its nice to know people like this will be keeping these old vehicles running for decades into the future!
Beau looks like a kid in a sweet shop. You better watch out he might want to stay there. These episodes have been really interesting! I can't wait too see the next one.
Absolutely MAGIC episode! It gives such hope and inspiration that if PanzerFarm can recreate so much of the Maybach HL230 engine (and other components needed) that we here in Aussie could one day actually have our own fully running Tiger H1! And I dare to dream it, even the Jagdpanther, which is such an amazing vehicle. To see them running each year would be truly amazing!
This is mind blowing, Panzer Farm make what isn't available and on a whole new level of accuracy and attention even to branding detail. I'm sure they will get your tiger running again, they have the resources. That over bored Tiger Engine at 5:55 , how on earth does a head gasket stand any chance of getting a decent seal on that surface.. Unless the sleeves are missing there's no chance.. Thanks for your collaboration with Tiger farm in Poland, it is a joy to see such enthusiasm, dedication and level of pure craftmanship.
i just wish someone from hungary would go to kubinka, make a deal with the museum to measure and then make 100% accurate replicas of the hungarian tanks to display them in hungary, a country deserve to show off their own production vehicles in their country, its part of our history
Some of the machine tools probably deserve an episode of their own. Fascinating.
Agreed
Yeah everything is done by computers now old school milling and lathes fascinating
You know they’re good just from Beau wandering with a grin on his face! What a pool of skills and from Michaels comments about cast in Poland supporting more local industries too. Their museum will be well worth a trip when they get it going.
This place is on my bucket list now besides AAAM and a few others.

They really are the gatekeepers of history. Remanufactured parts and the efforts taken to deliver perfection
It's really impressive how they combined ultra modern techniques like 3D scanning and printing with classic machinist skills to remake previously unreplaceable castings.
Old skills are slowly fading.

Just take a proven aircraft V12 like the Brits did succesfully.
@@CarLos-yi7neThe Tigers would have been 60tons if they used a long engine like Meteor or the W2.
gets worse when you realize the block is aluminum.

Wow ! There don’t seem to be adjectives appropriate enough for this episode ! Truly amazing shop and work ! Thanks for taking us along
You have to have them over for a visit
The cumulative skill sets of all the old boys in that video is humbling, mad respect. Worked on enough old war era equipment in my youth to know they are in a class all to themselves.
Loving Verkshop Vednesday with Kurt and the guys. A famtastic team up and great to see knowledge shared, and skills passed on.
What a gold mine you have discovered in this Polish engineering shop. Congratulations, may your collaboration with them deliver many more projects in your Smithfield Museum.
Thanks God he put on Earth these amazing people !Biig thanks for both teams for their precious work!
I can't believe I have to wait a whole week for the next episode!!! We need a Workshop Wednesday episode every day...LOL
Kurt bardzo ładnie przedstawiłeś się po polsku :)
I have been to Cairns and to Museum, and it was awesome and I am going again next year
Tremendous work.
This episode of your Polish visit is riveting guys. Beau looked as if he was in heaven lol. Can't wait for next weeks Polish adventure!
Chłopaki, ale duma! Autentyczna pasja, ogromna wiedza, ręce, które leczą bez ściemy. Ukłony głębokie, panowie!
Can’t wait for the Tiger 1 engine restoration video series for a Running Tiger.
These guys are the real deal at Panzerfarm that can manufacture parts and do all the fitments necessary it's to bad they don't have a program ( a apprenticeship program ) for youth ,This is fascinating to me and I'm sure a lot of others
Thank you that you go out of your ways to restore and rescue all those awesome relicts
Happy wksp weds from UK, all those guys are so enthusiastic about what they are doing people like you keeps old machines and the skills needed to fix them alive . Long may that continue

How great your group sent you all over there. Did you see the grin on that guys face when he started that truck engine . What a great video
And what an awesome sound!
I'm out of words.
The level of skill, time they spent: it's just incredible.
Well done guys, you can be proud !
That is some amazing work they are doing. As a machinist I am still waiting for the machine shop tour.
Absolutely astounding! I love Poland and the Polish people! And again, this is the best channel on youtube!
What an extremely important and talented crew they have here on the farm , amazing what can be done with technology and effort !
I saw al your videos and i have a great RESPEKT of your job. in germany we said I take my hat off to you and your work. And I think many of you don`t go to work, but to your hobby. Wonderful keep it up and many thanks from germany.😃😃😃

0:37 You did quite well :)
Inspiring stuff, guys, every single episode. It’s both humbling and a complete privilege to watch. Thank you!
This is so nice! I love the Polish mindset, to just get things done and done well 👌🏼👌🏼
Very cool to see CATIA V5 used for this. I have about 20 years experience using it in the aircraft industry. Great piece of software.
Kurt, so you some Polish?? At least you learn " We have ways to make you watch"!!! He he he!!
These Panzer Farm videos have been amazing, who wouldn't want to work there, everywhere you look, are more vehicles, parts and gifted and commited staff, great setup. Fantastic video.
The people at Panzer Farm are absolutely brilliant! My jaw is still on the floor after watching this side series.
Amazing!!!! Whish I could work there only a single minute.
Mind blown seeing such skill and professionalism in a small place.
The skill of those working in the Panzer farm is incredible, hand made replicas that look and work just like the original
Wow absolutely amazing to see all these vehicles and parts. One can almost feel the passion of these guys and all of you to . It definitely is an eye opener to see how much is still around. Greetings from a German in Western Australia 🇦🇺

A place where modern technology meets historic machinery but basic 'old skool' engineering delivers the goods.
What an incredible place.
What an astonishing place is the Panzerfarm !. Remaking original Panzer parts is incredible !. Can't wait to watch next journey of Kurt and Beau !.
I knew it, I knew that tiger's gonna be back on track

This place is absolutely amazing! I’m so glad someone has taken the time to research and restore these amazing vehicles.
Feverishly waiting for the next part...

Incredible. What talented engineers they are! Preserving the history of these incredible machines so they fully deserve the plaudits!

Excellent work by them. And, in such a small and crowded shop. Seems to me they could use an addition to it.
Tell them "thank you" from America. 👏
Awesome work and very well documented. Panzerfarm is now definitely on the list for a future trip!

Good to see there are places out there where a restoration specialist can go to get a few needed parts.
Fantastic.
Wow, so interesting Kurt. Wish I was there..............
Wow, Panzer Farm is just amazing. What a great engineering and fabrication group.
Kurt - very good polish language ;) Greetings from central Poland
Awesome Ep and machines guys
So awesome to see another group just as passionate if not more so than you guys.
I can not wait for the world to have another running tiger 1
Wow, just wow!
