Tank building

Very interesting video. Hope it loads ok.

Thanks for that Davido, i had a smile on for the whole thing, i spent a month in India and watched work like this going on, it makes you wonder where to original press dies from the Kawasaki plant ended up?

Thanks for posting that Davido,
But a slightly related comment:
No wonder their products are cheaper. I didn't see ANY safety equipment. No Guards. No Eye protection. Workers reaching into hydraulic presses. Did you notice the foot wear?
Yep we got a global economy now!

In the 1980's I was using 20 and 30 ton presses with no guards, depending on what you are making , sometimes you can't use guards, there's just no room for them. We had to be multi skilled back then, I'm not to sure how a lot of the computer generation would go using them though, you needed an attention span longer than 20 seconds to use them...!!!
