i am 100% down for the "Kurt goes to tank driving school" episode
I second that emotion!
you and me both Kurt once you drive a piece of iron you will be hooked. Ive driven everything from a D8 (when I was a kid) to a M113 A1 and the A2 plus a M577 and M1IP when I was a tanker. this was 30 plus years ago and I still love it. I love the steering and drive motor set up you have fabed together simple reliable set up and easy to maintain. Well done gents
Looks like you’re out voted Kurt!
Really, who turns down an opportunity to drive a tank!
Wednesday night; wine, dinner and Workshop Wednesday, it’s the perfect date night!
Wednesday morning (on this side of the Big Blue Marble). Tea, brakfast and Workshop Wednesday. The perfect start to a day! ;-)
Early Wednesday morning in the states.
Here in the States I look forward to my Wednesday early morning coffee while watching the incredible restoration work.
That was fantastic to go to local machine shops and see their skill in connection with the boys @ at the museum. More local collaboration footage, please. Hope you're feeling better, Kurt :)
When I see a 57 Chevy go down the street, I don't think about the drive train only the beauty of the car. If I owned a 57 Chevy I would rather a Resto mode with disc brakes, electronic ignition, and all the things that make a car safe on today's highways. A great running Panzer 1 is the same thing. JerseyBill from the States.
As usual Aus Armour never disappoints with their in house engineering and fabrication capabilities.
It’s also good to see the same engineering capabilities are alive and well in Cairns FNQ too.
Tomorrow is of course a very important day for us Aussies and our Kiwi cousins, Anzac Day.
For me I had:-
* One Grandfather serve in the Boer War in South Africa, circa 1899-1902 (wounded and survived)
* One Grandfather who was an original Anzac, served in the 2nd Battalion AIF at Gallipoli 1915 (wounded and survived)
* Father, 2nd AIF, served in WWII
* Numerous Uncles (4) served in the AIF during WWII too
* Mother worked in a factory towards the end of WWII packing parachutes
Lest We Forget....
Engineering at it's finest. I love watching skilled tradesman do their best.
I love watching you guys doing your magic! Thanks from Germany!
Every week I wait for WORKSHOP WEDNESDAY, and I am always amazed at how the team do what they do! Daryl stated he marvels at the other shops skills. I marvel each WORKSHOP WEDNESDAY, If I knew how I would nominate you all for an OBE. Cheers
It's Wennnnsdaaay !! , get well soon mate
5 AM here in Virginia. I am watching WSW, what a way to start the day! You always amaze me, with your skills and dedication!👍
You lucky buggers have my dream job, thanks so much for all your work, you lucky lucky bastards.
I’m planning a trip over to Cairns to visit your museum (I’m in Western Australia). Your museum has incredible reviews on Trip Advisor and Google. So many people from around the world amazed at how large the collection is, how friendly everyone is, and how great the tour guides are (I may have read this incorrectly, but it appears that the tour guides are often volunteers and used to serve on tanks in the Aus Army). A few comments say you can spend more than one day there and a standard ticket gives you entry for three days. It’s unbelievable that a privately owned museum is this good.
True - Jason (The assistant manager) who does all the special one off descriptions of various items in the museum did 12 years in the Royal Australian Regiment - I believe mostly on Leopard AS1 tanks.
Speaking from personal experience, take A LOT of SD cards for your camera. The museum is fantastic.
@@jackeagles1637 I would be very nice if they could acquire a combat rollerskate, my service vehicle, I think It would be a great display alongside Hat and the AC1 and AC4.
@@lysanderkrieg5474 I have no idea what you are talking about.
@@jackeagles1637 ASLAV.
Far too short, but that is always the case, beautiful work again from these gentlemen.
Greetings from the Netherlands.
This is one of my favorite shows on RUclips. Excellent crew and interesting subject matter
Beautiful work. Seriously impressive.
“Just another Workshop Wednesday”. To the tune of ‘Manic Monday’ with apologies to ‘The Bangles’
As always, the boys never disappoint in the quality of their work...FIRST CLASS.
If I were looking for someone to custom fabricate heavy duty springs or ANY component that will take abuse, that Gentleman at the Blacksmith/ Spring shop looks to be EXACTLY who you want to be undertaking that take. Absolute no nonsense workhorse with the brawn of an iron worker, and mind of an engineer.
I would be willing to bet good money that he had seen, done, and built bigger and better shit in his life than I ever will! 😅👍
Every week we see what I call miraculous toolmaking and engineering. This is proof that Australians can make things despite what the politicions and media say. Well done fellows. Look forward to next weeks show.
When I see engineering skills like this I still have faith in this country. Why have we lost our manufacturing industries. Its not too late to fix this and train the youngsters. Respect for the ANZACS 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
It's the same as here in the UK.... China has undercut every price by paying very little to skilled people.
Mate they don't want apprentices tgey want University Graduates Hundred's to tell you HOW TO DO IT BIT NO ONE TO ACTUALLY DO THE JOB
Apprentices should go back to Grade 10 15 years old as it was at 15 they still live at home and pay board NOT RENT Easyer to live .And they should receive $20,000 at the completion of each year either as a top-up of wage or go into an account they can't touch until they Graduate from their Trade giving them a great deposit for a house at 19 years old And an Employer gets Tax benefits for each Apprentice they employ for each year
Same story in Germany. The so called „German engineering“, that‘s the past.
Presence is: „My kid has to study and has to be a banker“. Kid will say: „I want to be a influencer, with my own RUclips or TicToc channel.
There are still skilled tradesman out there, it has just become rare. The answer is to stop sending our kids to college.
Correct. Full support from UK. 🇬🇧
V. impressed with the hydraulics. I would never have thought of that.
You cant start without the workshop Wednes-day!!!
I'm as impressed with all the gorgeous machine work on the idler axle as Darryl is. What a thing of beauty that is! Such beautiful work, it's like youse are building a brand new Panzer I! Thumbs up!
Get Kurt to drive and have Jess hold the camera! Great series, consummate professionals working on museum masterpieces. In Australia no less? What is not to like? Northern Engineering's machine work was excellent. Fascinating to watch. Thanks Aus Armour.
Hey. Whether you are sick or not. If you can talk. You can still say Workshop Wednesday! And it’s amazing how you’ve progressed to where you’ve made the announcement a bit! Love it!!!
The work done by the The Australian Armour & Artillery Museum is simply extraordinary but a shout out to those at Spring & Blacksmithing, Northern Engineering and local (unnamed) hydraulics guy for their contributions to this fantastic Panzer I (of a kind..😉) restoration!
Kurt sorry to hear you’re not doing well. But I’ve got your intro and outro covered.
Hi I am Kurt from oz armour, and welcome to workshop Wednesday.
That will have to do for your weekly tank restoration fix. And we’ll see you on the next one.
Some bloody clever engineering going on right there.
OK so its hydraulic drive? So what? Better than not driving I say.
Props to all who got those parts worked out, made and then fitted.
Always worth watching, your vehicles, up to you how you restore and power them, personally I'd prefer them as original, but I understand sometimes that's not possible. Get well soon Kurt.👍
Is there nothing you blokes can do , your engineering knowledge is out standing , and Jessie you made me laugh when you said that you left the calculations to the brainy people, I love watching you all rebuilding and restoring 80 and 90 year old vehicles until I found you on RUclips I didn’t know you existed since then I have watched every episode at least twice and some up to ten times thank you so much for sharing your stories and knowledge, best wishes from Tassie
This youtube channel is a favourite of mine. You guys really are amazing with what you know and do. My grandfather was in north Africa+ with the 4th london yeomanry ( sharpshooters) and its really interesting seeing what he was up against. All the best from the UK! Looking forward to next week's installment.
"We don't wanna go loose, do we ?" Meanwhile nylon barely touches the bolts haha. Good job guys
Don't wanna go loose, use a nord lock ring.
I noticed that.😅
This will be fantastic running and driving, a tank you could put almost anyone in the seat and let them drive at ARMORFEST ! What a thrill!😂
That is outstanding, having components made in-house and locally. This will be an awesome addition to your fleet of running vehicles.👍🏻🇦🇺
Awesome work, love the spline cutting, havent seen that before. Also love the rattle gun orchestra which is the tune of every workshop.
Come on, Kurt-man up and drive one!! What an opportunity and with support from good folks. It is great to see how you all get along and work together.
What a great start to Wednesday Morning. You guys put out some brilliant content. Your innovative approach to restoration and rebuilds are amazing. Not just engineers but artists too. Absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing. Hope you feel better soon Curt.
Absolutely beautiful fitment techniques guys! Perfectly lubed threads, beautifully machined and designed parts. A real treat to watch🎉
Bloody hell the skills of all these people are crazy. Love it. Have a good ANZAC DAY.
I am constantly amazed at the skills and ingenuity you gents use in these restorations. My Wednesdays aren't complete without these weekly episodes. Keep up the good work!
Nice to see you're using local businesses where possible.
As a former Joiner and now an elderly Pensioner, I am so impressed by seeing "Real Craftsmen" do their jobs to perfection. As a Dane I would have loved to be able to visit this Collection, but my major travelling days are sadly gone!
And on a Tank made for Exhibition and eventual small time action outside, I can't see that modern additions to make it less difficult to operate, is of any problem!! Only a very few would have been able to see what's different from the original. Finn. Denmark
The work on this vehicle so far has been amazing, up to your usual high standards.
A bit disappointing that the Panzer I won't have a real steering differential and manual transmission but I understand that sourcing original parts would be prohibitively expensive and finding a modern substitute would be difficult to say the least. It'll be great to see it up and running. 👍
I hope you get well soon. Working well sick is rough. Thanks, I look forward to Workshop Wednesdays. The music came in way early so I was like "Noooooooo I just started watching" but there was another 10 minutes or so.
Great work guys.
Good to see the puzzle coming to life. Well done to crew and all 'subs' that pitch in.
Another great video mates. Daz great job on the track tensioner. Beautiful workmanship. The hydraulic drive will be better than attempting to find and rebuild a transmission and transfer system.
I just shake my head at the ingenuity of these tradesmen. Amazing.
Those hydraulic motors are tiny to offer such torque and power to run a tank! You're also lucky having such engineering firms in a small city like Cairns. I wouldnt be able to locate similar suppliers in the east of England!
Bonza job boys!
The amount of thought, expertise and care evident in every single video.
The hydraulic motors ...so small but powerful. 😮
To me, this things is the Better parte of my day, i love constroptions and Restaurentions, of Vehicles ww2, planes and Guns..keeping the History live, congrats from Brasil...always the best Works... best wiches for yours Team.. sorry about my poor English😂
Thank you guys for showing us the awesome restoration works every Wednesday ! 👍
another magical moment
🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Honestly, the hilux swapped pz1 is crazy. I love it
If U.S. tank production ever falters I hope we get the Aussies to fill in! Amazing mechanical abilities!
When the cellos kicked in early I got tripped out. "What that's it??!".
Love the teeny tillers!
Brilliant work - and no complaints from me about your approach or methods.
Your closing words were spot on.
Yes, purists will be annoyed that stuff is non original or modernised to be more serviceable.
But the truth is this.. It is far better that the rare examples that have survived with original
engines, gearboxes and aren't a mish mash of different marks or versions, spend their time
preserved in museums for future generations, their task is to inform and educate rather than
give rides to customers. They are way too precious for that.
Thanks for another truly absorbing upload. 👍🏼
The ultimate model build, 1:1 😎Good job!
Really interesting work, having a hydraulic powertrain would greatly simplify the fabrication work you guys need to do. I'd love to see a video going more in depth into the transmission, being able to neutral steer would be fantastic lol. I'm a mech. engineer though not sure how many other people would be interested in such a thing.
That was absolutely brilliant.
Excellent work chaps.
When an engineer does engineering it is amazing
They are truly incredibly skilled people 👍👍
I love the work you folks are doing. Love Wednesdays!!
Always an Outstanding video and presentation.
Driving that is going to be amazing fun!
Amazing tech and machining going into this restoration. No matter the driveline, or hydraulics. It's a piece of history that will be driven and seen by all who enjoy military vehicles. Amazing skills by all who have had their hands on this machine. Top notch work. Remember what you started with.
Can't wait til next Wednesday. See you Monday for Maintenance Monday. Please!!!
Well done boys
Fantastic Job Boys! Really Excellent work my Dudes!
Best job ever. I dream of working in a workshop like this. Non-repetitive and innovative work. Lots of interesting problems to solve and historical research on important pieces of history. I guess it must give great satisfaction too.
Amazing work and designs to make the tank function again and maybe even better than original too... Thumbs Up!
Much Respect for Everyone's incredible skills ! I think schools around the world need to bring back shop class !!! Have a great day at the museum !!! 🇺🇲 - - 🇦🇺
Feel better!
WORKSHOP WEDNESDAY, the highlight of my week.
Resto mod PANZER , LOVE IT !!
13:35 Lol you gotta love it….how are you powering your Panzer I tank? “Ahhh mate we just pulled the engine outta mi Hilux, works a treat!” 😂 It’s like Mad Max IRL! 😂
Bloody good.
Thanks AAAM. =)
love the bits of the local shops added to the build. very cool
The problem solving, and the genius that goes into making new parts and adapting modern ones into a whole tank, is just awesome. Thanks for the wonderful videos. G'Day mates, from Texas.
18:45 i'm not. I think it will be great to drive WHICH ultimately is very important because this needs to be seen. Dead history is that, dead. It's just a piece of metal that doesn't do anything. But if you saw it move, it sticks with you. This is valid in every facet. I've just as much respect for you guys putting this to function (with the hydraulics) as i do around the guys restoring big boy locomotives in US to OG spec and original steam (from scratch made) boilers. What counts is the outcome. The outcome is to be seen. Best thing i can support this sentiment is this, saw some WW1 guns during my childhood at a mountain side castle. Visited recently, felt they were added after the fact, asked the curator, got told they'd been there for way longer than i'd visited. I simply forgot about them. But i saw a colonial era cannon being shot and i recall it perfectly, because they shot the thing (not full tilt 1800's gun, old and retired) but i got to see it cycle on its mount and smelled the powder. That, is the key factor and why i'm perfectly ok with hydraulics. Just my 2 cents.
Why this site doesn't have over 1 million subscribers is astounding.
Artistry!
A wonderful episode guys! So much good work going on for this vehicle. Daryl and Jesse are experts at this stuff and Daryl's lathe work is really good, especially for a carpenter! Keep up the good work guys. Looking forward to the next episode. And Kirk, get better soon mate!
I would like to shout out to all the ANZACS out their living or those that gave their lives for on this special day
Still can’t believe the great workmanship you guys produce
Kurt…
Everyone gets sick - but we appreciate your putting us high enough on your priority list to still put out our addiction videos🤠
Get well soon 🍺
Wow, superb video. Seeing the Northern Engineer work in action. Incredible. Perfect bit of merging by chance on the time lapse.
I know 'naff all' about engineering but love watching this place at work, and those Two tiny motors gonna power a Tank -SERIOUSLY ?.
I like watching machines machining machine parts - reminds me of the days when I used to be at the controls of a machine machining machine parts. 😊
hope you feel better soon kurt.
thats some primo oz engineering!
Coming along nicely piece by piece. ❤️❤️
Amazing, restoring a Panzer 1 !
Such craftsmanship!!! Superb!!!!
What an incredible team you guys have! Always looking forward to workshop Wednesday, to see those talented guys working! Kurt your xommentary and filming is really nice too! Well done 👍🏻
Amazing. Simply amazing.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Now that they’ve cracked how to make many of these parts, I can’t wait to order my own replica Panzer I! After a brief lookup of the dimensions, I found it’ll fit in my garage. ;-)
Awesome build mates!
