I really appreciate What Daryl and Jessie do . My Grandfather was a Blacksmith during the early part of WW2 making Bren Gun Carriers and can only imagine what he had to do in the Woodville Plant ( now a Bunnings )
Was thinking similar - haha - why I find myself going ahead 10 seconds at a time to quicken pace as the banging is just too much. Got me to thinking too - "passion" doesn't put food on the table - what kind of salary do these artist/fabricators draw? Great work on part of both the team and the video/editing/commentary team.
Thanks for a great channel, i look forward to every wednesday to see your solid work. Would it be possible to do a special episode where Kurt interviews everyone in the team? About their background, interest in military vehicles, how they got hired? There are probably many more questions to be asked, and i'm sure i'm not alone in wanting to see this. Greetings from Sweden 👋
I’ll tell you what, you are really presenting all this terrifically well. Each week we have just the right amount of commentary, variety, context, music etc. And each of these things is correct, not inane or comments out of place. It’s really well edited. Congratulations. 🙂.
Your choice of music and the proper timing of inserting music is spot on sir. Each old military vehicle I restored was akin to resurrecting an old warrior to her original glory where they spend the rest of their years in parades and a nice garage.
Restoration of old items from my father's era is an honorable deed, guys, and I very much enjoy watching you restore these wasted tanks to their original conditions. Thank you.
I watch WORKSHOP WEDNESDAY! with my 10 year old daughter every week. When the music starts towards the end of the videos, you break her little heart Kurt. I just thought you should know. 🤣
Great job boys! That's the sort of sheet metalwork I used to love doing. I'd dearly love to spend a day belting the living daylights out of a bit of one of those boxes or wings!
Considering the original condition of the vehicle, you gents are doing a brilliant job. As are your filming and editing team. Thanks for sharing this project with us!
Guys; the level of innovation and craftsmanship is really top-shelf. But there's more on display here and that's the heart that these tradesmen put into these frustrating projects. Australian talent on display (Many Thanks).
That was the fastest 22m video I've watched!! Time just flies when you have a video so interesting and with such craftsmanship. Well done guys, fantastic !!!!
The old girl might have started out a French vehicle but with all those it becoming swiss very quickly..😁😁 Awesome work boys. This is reminding me of doing coach smash repair work back in the day.
I can only imagine the sheer satisfaction of beating the hell out of a piece of scrap metal and return it to what it once was! Awesome as usual boys!👍🇦🇺
The workmanship all you fellas display is awe-inspiring. Most of this can't be taught from books or in a class. You're all star mechanics and engineers and it's a thrill watching you all work.
Imagine my joy whenever I check my subscriptions and find a new video from my favorite gang! Thank you so much for all your hard work and perseverance, boys!
I always hit the 'like' the second the video gets rolling! You know it's always going to be a ripper! It's great watching you guys bend and hammer and coax the metal back into line; your experience and understanding of this sort of work is amazing.
My Wednesday Aus armor fix ,I do look forward to Daryl and Jesse hammering this stuff back into condition again where it's presentable looking again good show mates
I love and appreciate your work preserving history. The part I have to be wary of is remembering when I work on my hotrod steel that it is MUCH lighter. lolol Same principles work, I just need a softer touch as my car isn't armor. I need to visit Melbourne, you've given me a travel adjustment to head north also that journey. Thanks for a different view of Quality Work !
As long as just those boxes and fenders are taking, I am selfishly pleased that this may be a years worth of workshop Wednesdays. I could watch you guys all day. The ingenuis methods you use to work around a part is amazing and helps my own amateur efforts in my home shop.
You got to see the grunt work that goes into a restoration. Most never see this, a thousand little victories, matched by the want to throw the hammer at the wall moments. Thank for bringing the real story of restoration, and great work guys!
What craftsmanship. I’ve been watching the channel for some time now and am amazed at the work. Wish we could get more than a few minutes of video each week. I’d watch all day!
Pretty funny to watch. What you'd call a labour of love. Nothing you can't fix with gentle persuasion with a sledge hammer, boot, vice, blow torch and brute strength. Well done team.
Outstanding as near always.. love your passion anergy lads.. you so rock! AN a side note, I'm involved in a group called the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) here in the USA.. I'm told they're down there in Oz land too. A kind of live role play/recreationist group of a more idealized middle ages, and I have picked up so may tricks and tips on working metal that I am starting the process of making myself new armor. Mostly 16 gauge with some 14 gauge pieces over critical areas And no one one but you lads to blame to so very inspiring! Salude!
Yep, big hammers and gas burners, I love them. It's going to look beautiful again, those men are really good at what they do. please keep it up. Greetings from the Netherlands.
I suspect one of the things the crew like to do is compare a finished project with the state it was in when they started. When you can see the results of your labor, it can give you much joy! And to have it recorded, and appreciated, all over the world even better.
you guys dont shy away from a challenge and the metal fab guys are good at there craft, its already looking so much better, cant wait to see the next instalment, thanks guy, good luck 👍
amazing work as ever - one thing i enjoy doing is amusing myself at the thought processes that went into designing these machines, sometimes things seem just thrown together as they are purely functional - but i bet somewhere down the line when the wings were designed and assembled, some little French chap was saying No No No No, pretty curves added to flat square parts, a nightmare this kind of restoration really needs descent smaller modified presses with a foot controller and to include a head and foot stamp to press the indents back into shape, rather than just beating seven bales for hours with a large hammer - still very impressive, the old army motto, make do and overcome works just as well, sometimes quicker, sometimes longer but still guaranteed the job gets done either way
I dunno why, but when he put that panel on the floor and just started stomping on it, I just burst into laughter at how the simplest solutions can often be the best.
As my instructor used to say when I was an apprentice in HM Dockyard in the 50's 'Get a bigger effing hammer!' Seriously though, another great example of the work you guys do, and when she's done and painted she will look just like a bought one!👍
Incredible determination and skillfully putting the puzzles back together…I see some saying purchase original, well sourcing old parts online is hit and miss…70 plus year old metal sitting In the elements can look great in a photo…but then seeing it in person realize moisture has done its bit, and not an inexpensive venture either. Watching the way you all bring these vehicles and equipment back to life is truly enjoyable. Thank you!
I have a mate who always says you can’t make raspberry jam out of pig sh!t but you guys prove him wrong time after time. Incredible work 👍🏻🇦🇺
😂
chicken soup from chicken shit :D
I have literally doubled the price of a vehicle by way of a Dulux rebuild. I used to call it turning a sows ear into a silk purse.
From scrap metal to fenders and storage boxes. Daryl and Jesse are true craftsmen! Your work always amazes me!!!!
Watching Daryl beat the crap out of that mud guard was the highlight of my week. 👍
I really appreciate What Daryl and Jessie do . My Grandfather was a Blacksmith during the early part of WW2 making Bren Gun Carriers and can only imagine what he had to do in the Woodville Plant ( now a Bunnings )
In the 57 years I've been repairing things I've learned more when the job was difficult than I did when the job was easy.
Only bad thing about this channel is we got to wait a week for a new episode 😢
Keep up the good work mates!!
I think there is a competition who can make more hammering noise than the other. :)
Always an outstanding video and presentation.
Was thinking similar - haha - why I find myself going ahead 10 seconds at a time to quicken pace as the banging is just too much.
Got me to thinking too - "passion" doesn't put food on the table - what kind of salary do these artist/fabricators draw?
Great work on part of both the team and the video/editing/commentary team.
what youre hearing is the mating call of the elusive "gearheadicus mechanicus" in its natural habitat.
They don't call it "panel beating" for no reason.
Haha
Thanks for a great channel, i look forward to every wednesday to see your solid work.
Would it be possible to do a special episode where Kurt interviews everyone in the team? About their background, interest in military vehicles, how they got hired? There are probably many more questions to be asked, and i'm sure i'm not alone in wanting to see this.

The guys must have the greatest job of all times...
Your choice of music and the proper timing of inserting music is spot on sir.

Restoration of old items from my father's era is an honorable deed, guys, and I very much enjoy watching you restore these wasted tanks to their original conditions. Thank you.
The old saying in action, a light heart and a heavy hammer.
Great work guys. Always impressed
I watch WORKSHOP WEDNESDAY! with my 10 year old daughter every week. When the music starts towards the end of the videos, you break her little heart Kurt.
I just thought you should know. 🤣
Great to see you using proper PPE and guards on the angle grinders. Rule modelling the right behaviours to your viewers! Great work guys!
So now we get Panhard EBR and Stug III G alternately each week?
Great job boys! That's the sort of sheet metalwork I used to love doing. I'd dearly love to spend a day belting the living daylights out of a bit of one of those boxes or wings!

Anything that involves working with metal are my favourite videos.
That was the fastest 22m video I've watched!! Time just flies when you have a video so interesting and with such craftsmanship. Well done guys, fantastic !!!!
Amazing patience these engineers show here. Dressmaking with sheet steel ! Another super video !
The old girl might have started out a French vehicle but with all those it becoming swiss very quickly..😁😁
Awesome work boys.
This is reminding me of doing coach smash repair work back in the day.
I can only imagine the sheer satisfaction of beating the hell out of a piece of scrap metal and return it to what it once was! Awesome as usual boys!👍🇦🇺
Outstanding work gents, as always.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos and to see your latest endeavours. Thanks
The workmanship all you fellas display is awe-inspiring. Most of this can't be taught from books or in a class. You're all star mechanics and engineers and it's a thrill watching you all work.
A ton of hard work and creativity goes into restoring these old range wrecks. Well done guys.
Imagine my joy whenever I check my subscriptions and find a new video from my favorite gang! Thank you so much for all your hard work and perseverance, boys!
That’s some mighty fine panel work there team, great progress
Dear God, that is one hell of a lot of work. Impressive skills, patience, and determination!
I always hit the 'like' the second the video gets rolling! You know it's always going to be a ripper!
It's great watching you guys bend and hammer and coax the metal back into line; your experience and understanding of this sort of work is amazing.
My Wednesday Aus armor fix ,I do look forward to Daryl and Jesse hammering this stuff back into condition again where it's presentable looking again good show mates
Now that’s skill… straightening the unstraightenable, saving the unsavable!
Good way to relieve any frustrations or brighten up a bad day - hit stuff !
I love and appreciate your work preserving history. The part I have to be wary of is remembering when I work on my hotrod steel that it is MUCH lighter. lolol Same principles work, I just need a softer touch as my car isn't armor. I need to visit Melbourne, you've given me a travel adjustment to head north also that journey. Thanks for a different view of Quality Work !
They’re not panel beating any armor, lol. This is just thicker sheet metal than your average car, it’s still just stamped.
Lots of hard work
Good to see
Just visited today and saw Daryl working on the mudguards
Fantastic! As soon as I saw that machine I knew it would be a panel beaters special, lol.
As long as just those boxes and fenders are taking, I am selfishly pleased that this may be a years worth of workshop Wednesdays. I could watch you guys all day. The ingenuis methods you use to work around a part is amazing and helps my own amateur efforts in my home shop.
Is there any chance you can make videos longer . I love watching you repair these rare machines back to their former glory.
I don't care how long or what you film them doing , its Therapy watching them succeed at what they are restoring
“Tanksmithing”. Brilliant work. Thank you.
Man, that is some of the toughest work I've seen. I'm really impressed!
You got to see the grunt work that goes into a restoration. Most never see this, a thousand little victories, matched by the want to throw the hammer at the wall moments. Thank for bringing the real story of restoration, and great work guys!
Now! that's what you call panel beating 👍
I Look forward to these all week.
jeez this channel is fast becoming a must watch
Pure dedication and passion in these guys work. Love it.
Great job guys !!!
Thanks for slowing down Daryl's hammering so we could see it.
What craftsmanship. I’ve been watching the channel for some time now and am amazed at the work. Wish we could get more than a few minutes of video each week. I’d watch all day!
Their skill is really outstanding !
Wow heavy metal music to my ears chums. Keep up the GREAT WORK lads!!!
fantastic work... really shows what a struggle it is to work with that thicker metal!
you are all madlads and it is just so impressive how you can improvise to fix the heavily crippled state of the Ebr y'all awesome
Proper hands on , down and dirty panel work, lots of skill and perseverance, one bite at a time.
loving seeing masters at work, well done guys
Pretty funny to watch.
What you'd call a labour of love.
Nothing you can't fix with gentle persuasion with a sledge hammer, boot, vice, blow torch and brute strength.
Well done team.

The Great Artistes.
Excellent work. Tedious but important.
Yep, big hammers and gas burners, I love them. It's going to look beautiful again, those men are really good at what they do. please keep it up.

Impressionnant 💪 bon courage a vous 😉 je suis impatient de le voir fini 👍
Awesome work !!!
Great job guys in bashing out the kinks.
I’d like to see the videos a bit longer. The time flies by so quickly.
Absolutely 💯 phenomenal work gentlemen! 👍. A tip of the hat to you from Sunny Florida in the USA. Cheers and all the best.
These blokes are in the Aussie equivalent of Florida, cairns,far north Queensland.
Looks like some hard core body work going on with this tank. I could watch these type videos all day long. Bravo guys, Bravo!
Thanks, guys!
You guys are the best. Made my day. 👍
I am amazed that these guys can take old junk and turn it into something that looks great.
Well done guys on what is a difficult set of repairs.
Real Panel Beating 😁
Always a pleasure to watch true craftsman at work my dad was a sheet-metal worker his whole life, and I was always amazed at what he could do
Hi AusArmour. Love your work 👍
Excellent work, nice to watch boys 👍👍
always a highlight of Wednesday you tube, love the stamping to straighten the metal work
Fantastic restoration work as always !. Thank you guys for the awesome video. See you on next Wednesday !
Bring on the Ha-go!
these men are amazing.
I'm in awe, these guys are real craftsmen.
you guys dont shy away from a challenge and the metal fab guys are good at there craft, its already looking so much better, cant wait to see the next instalment, thanks guy, good luck 👍
Foot hammer skill show…. Nice work sir best wishes from Minnesota
Your shop it sooo interesting to watch. Thanks 😊
When you could half-ass it, these guys go the extra mile! Great work!
True craftsmen!
I would love to hear more about the research behind these restorations.
love the music selection on this one. Great work boys.
Thanks again team, brilliant episode. I was totally absorbed, and the episode ended. I now have to wait a whole week for my favourite channel, Cheers
amazing work as ever - one thing i enjoy doing is amusing myself at the thought processes that went into designing these machines, sometimes things seem just thrown together as they are purely functional - but i bet somewhere down the line when the wings were designed and assembled, some little French chap was saying No No No No, pretty curves added to flat square parts, a nightmare
this kind of restoration really needs descent smaller modified presses with a foot controller and to include a head and foot stamp to press the indents back into shape, rather than just beating seven bales for hours with a large hammer - still very impressive, the old army motto, make do and overcome works just as well, sometimes quicker, sometimes longer but still guaranteed the job gets done either way
Old school love it
I dunno why, but when he put that panel on the floor and just started stomping on it, I just burst into laughter at how the simplest solutions can often be the best.
You fellows have some mad metal-working skills! Awesome work.
love the use of the MK1 boot!, makes for perfect 'fettling' :)
As my instructor used to say when I was an apprentice in HM Dockyard in the 50's 'Get a bigger effing hammer!' Seriously though, another great example of the work you guys do, and when she's done and painted she will look just like a bought one!👍
Awe inspiring work, keep it up and love the weekly dose.
Incredible determination and skillfully putting the puzzles back together…I see some saying purchase original, well sourcing old parts online is hit and miss…70 plus year old metal sitting In the elements can look great in a photo…but then seeing it in person realize moisture has done its bit, and not an inexpensive venture either. Watching the way you all bring these vehicles and equipment back to life is truly enjoyable. Thank you!
Oh no, video is too short. I could watch a whole hour of this.... Thank you. it´s amazing what you do....😉👍
