I worked on one just like that here in 1988. We ran mostly board and it was a handful. I saw the one comment and i too was doing this from the early 1970s. Most of these kids now push buttons and wouldn't know what fit is and how to get it without computer assistance. I'd love to rin one again part time but nothing around here like it anymore
Services (free water, gray-tank-emptying, toilet cassette emptying, super-clean toilets) in the downtown area, not far from this parking lot. Everything free of charge, at a very touristy spot. You have to hand it to the Bretons. Nothing like it except in Spain and very very few other countries. In the rest, you pay for everything. Hats off!
Here now Kieth. Fantastic aire. Can I just say we have been on holiday for 10 weeks and used just about all your videos and Aires. You have helped us to have a great holiday. Cheers
Good to see you're still enjoying France and the Aires. I doubt if I'll be posting any more videos in France as we are both now struggling with medical problems but still hope to travel occasionally in the UK.
Dinosaur time, but look at 0.25...four very distinctive uniforms: Matron, Ward Sister, Student Nurse and Staff Nurse. So very different from everyone wearing 'scrubs' today. Yes, things have to move on, but at least with the old uniforms, you knew exactly who you were dealing with!
I'm not sure when this video was made but I was running them about thirty years ago and we had used the Roland presses similar to this one from around 1962. Hearing protectors seem a good idea, with the volume of noise in the factory, until you try to run the presses. Every small noise in the Printing process is essential to knowing what to do next during production and any interference, such as ear protectors, would not be helpful. The sound of the general running of the machine and all its moving parts need to heard so any actions required, if there's a problem, can be done as quickly as possible.
I started feeding on 4c 31 years ago, the kids I work with need to learn on these machines to actually understand printing, they think you just come in and press a button and run absolutely no idea about fitting a job with no automation or even ink/ water balance
@nickr688 I teach who ever is willing to learn but you can only lead a horse to water can't make em drink. 2nd ink/water balance is not something you can teach there's a ton of variables, I know guys running a press for 20 years they still don't get it. If you don't understand the chemistry behind it you'll never learn.
Went to the Gate as a young lad, the only understood the sacrifice after a visiting scared ground then venturing on to the Netherlands and experiencing the 8th airforce burial grounds.. Yeap it sucks walking along a line of graves 40 years before your Bourne except it was multiple rows of brave men
It is almost 30 years since I left printing - I was a Litho printer for 35 years and we used Roland machines for most of that time. Also printed on Mann Fast 5s back in the 1950s and Nebiolo 4 colour in the seventies. And well paid ......
My great grandad served in the Manchester regiment in ww1 I've his medals and cap badge this service always makes me very emotional we should never forget what they did for us and what we take for granted thanks to there sacrifice
