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.

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.

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

Surprised the press wasn't used to help getting things back into shape. At work we got some lifting brackets made out of thick stainless sheet that sometimes bend a lot if not getting placed right in the machinery. I have found it's much easier to use the press and some clever placed bricks, than trying to get them back into right shape on a table with wise and big hammers.
