Amazing skills, I was a sheetmetal worker for 46 years, I can appreciate what these guys are doing, I’m also in awe that these guys still have toes eyes and fingers,
I was 37 years sheet metal worker and I did shop fabrication and yeah kind of crazy wearing sandals 😂 my boss would have sent me home if I showed up in sandals! Definitely appreciated seeing how well the tanks turned out. How about those bench snips at the beginning with the extension handles. I’m guessing this is in India…definitely no osha guidelines
@@stayathome316 Unions.....thats why nothing is made in the UK anymore....UNIONS SQUEEZED THE LIFE OF OF so many great UK companies....Look what happened to our motor cycles....Fords British Leyland.....and so on and so on....remember Red Robbo. Then Scargill killed off our coal mines......made em to costly.....cheaper to import from the other side of the world says it all.
Health and safety is an absolute piss take these days. People that have never stepped foot on a building site dreaming up legislation that everyone on a building site should stick to. The new lunacy for you. My brother is a lecturer in Painting & Decorating. Some extremely silly person has dreamt up that UK apprentices can no longer ask for a pole (Decorating pole) on a contract while on building sites. This is apparently offensive to Polish people (who also ask for a pole) Instead these poor teenage lads have to go and ask a grown man on a site if they can use their shaft. What tosser thought this one up?? I honestly wish I could say its a joke
i like how the guy with the sliced up knee is sitting one out taking a break while the guy who is about to slice his knee cuts the next sheet. lol. These guys are great!
@@FrustratedBaboon are you drunk? put down the bottle and go to bed. Put the crack pipe down too while you are at it. You guys say the most random stuff I swear.
When I was 11-12 years old, I was fooling around with friends, having fun, getting home for dinner, then play more.. I hope it goes well for this kids later on in life
Love the steel caps and safety glasses 😂 also love the stress relief method and pressure test of those spot welds. So that’s why the Royal Enfield is cheap
Loving that Child Labor! And the Sandals while working around sharp stuff! Reminds me of when we used to gut houses down to the frame and do complete remodels, all the while I worked bare foot- other people somehow messed up their feet and stepped on nails wearing shoes while I never got a foot injury, it becomes second nature to not step on things. They all thought I was crazy but I never got hurt! Mad respect for these People, I hope they're being paid well!
It's ALL about 'attitude'. That guy must hate his job. If he cared, he'd have been gentle with placing those parts on the floor without creating more dings in the metal.
@@tiswhatitis137 Why most of the comments under such videos believe it is india? In fact, not a single factory functioning like this can be found in the automobile sector in India. This is video from some other country.
Apart from the lack of safety gear this is very similar to the process you would have seen anywhere in the west back in the 1960's before production lines and specialised mechanisation became common.
I have been in manufacturing for years in Australia and when I saw that bash with the iron bar, that told me a problem with the previous forming process and for these guys' boss, it is cheaper to correct after forming that to modify the forming tool!
Great job you guys and amazing skill,I worked in a machine shop like this when I was young and the process was similar,that’s why I can appreciate your labor.👍
This is typical India. This is probably Ludhiana Punjab. I have visited several times and the lack of safety precautions is scary. Seems the boss has the attitude, plenty more workers where this guy came from if he gets injured. I am not judging, as this is not my culture.
Это буквально рабство за копейки. в итоге такой бак по себе стоимости 1-2 рубля выходит. а его продадут тысяч за 10+. вот и думай какая РАБотающие Рабы.
Ganz tolle Arbeit, alles ohne PSA und alle Finger, beide Augen und alle Fuss Zehen sind immer noch dran, tolle Leistung 👍 Auch die Kinder Arbeit, alles so unterhaltsam 👍😆😅😂
And the finished motorcycles here weigh a quarter of any OCC. Do most people know OCC began as an ornamental iron business? It explained a lot once I knew that.
These guys have rather more talent than the OCC knuckle draggers whose idea of custom cycle was to weld a fire hydrant to a HD motor and bolt some expensive wheels to the ensuing abortion.
I always love the WorkCover approved safety flip-flops, fingerless gloves and safety glasses, worn around razor sharp sheet metal by these guys. I guess if your older colleagues are missing a few toes and fingertips it would be good motivation to concentrate on what you are doing.
Unfortunately, in a poor country like Pakistan, the owner will not provide the safety boots or goggles. Workers hardly get paid a pittance. So, you have no clue about other countries and you make stupid statements.
You guys only know to complain….. the workers in this video are far more skilled than workers around you who just go by the book and have no fucking clue to what needs to be done without proper equipment. The workers here are genuinely experienced and can make precise products without proper equipment. So better take your complaining and fun making ass somewhere else……
OSHA would have a field day. Everyone is wearing sandals. I'm sure they are steel toed sandals. I love the QC guy with the stick banging the tanks at the very end.
I love the section that carefully hammers out all the dents and bumps that the tanks develop from being thrown around…and right after he throws them into a pile again. Ruthless efficiency.
I know right? one would guess that after carefully removing all the dents the tank would see a better treatment but no, to the gravel floor it goes again.
These men are getting things done from operation to operation and putting a product on the market as efficiently as they can with the tools at their disposal. Nothing but respect for these people working hard for a living. Not spoiled little brats like those who leave negative and dementing comments here. Thank you for sharing this great video!
Perhaps you'd like to work there, too? No, I didn't think so. They edited out the parts where a guy gets his finger cut off and gets replaced by someone new.
This is interesting (as are all your videos) from several points. I am an "old time" machinist. The first CNC I saw was still a paper punch type. All the machines I learned on were manual. All my "home machines" are old manual units. I love to see how much can be done with a old fashion manual tools. That said, for us in the USA (I am originally from Canada) it is easy to see why we can not make make money manufacturing. If OSHA walked in to a plant like this, it would be shut down instantly. Safety boots ... safety glasses .... light curtains to prevent you from putting your hands into the equipment ... Even things like unrolling the coil .. here this would have been done with a machine onto a table so you don't need to bend over. Look at the open welding of the edge ... and the welding of the spigot with the minimal shield ... I wonder how much there are are being paid? Do you think they have health insurance if they get injured on the job. Funny you don't see many older workers. I think Americans need to watch things like this and understand that if they buy off shore items, you are causing good safe American jobs (with benefits like paid vacation and retirement plans) to go away. Sure you same money but realize where the parts are coming from. Is i worth you saving a few dollars on your motorcycle to hurt the American economy?
You have a valid point but you’re also leaving out the fact US union workers steal hours from corporations. The the very few make up for the laziness of many.
@@ghostface1818 Unions are good and bad. I completely agree ... people need to be productive. If you are not, you should be fired and not have the union cover up for you. That said, without collective bargaining, you would not have the safety regulations, high wages and benefits the US workers have. I have been on both sides of this argument, owning my own shop at one time and also working for a factory where I was forced to join the union. The best place I worked was in a shop where the owners respected and took good care of the workers who in return did a good job for the company. Unfortunately, this is seldom the case. In many cases, this only happens when the workers either partly or completely own the company.
any American product too expensive for poor people, no American or interesting parts on the market too expensive. so it's interesting that these poor people contribute to making tools for motorcycles, cars, machines cheaper and which will be used by poor people who can buy. what makes the american economy remains for the rich people america manufactures for america and not for the international market
@gae but if you ship all your manufacturing to other "cheaper" countries then you become a country who only offers services. All your jobs are providing services for others. That is the end of your economy. I have witnessed this. I grew up in a "steel town" ... Selco, Inco, Union Caribide, John Deere, tube mill, .... all in my little town. Now they are gone ... along with the good jobs. Everyone wanted to make more and pay less. They should have been willing to pay a bit more for that motorcycle and keep their jobs. In my mind, I don't want to bring our workers down but bring the other workers of the world up. In my "perfect" economy, there would be a "world tariff system". Countries that pay their workers a living wage ... provide health care ... have good safety records ...for these countries there would be no tariff. I think maybe counties like Sweden might be here. Then you get countries like the USA ... good pay ... decent safety ... lousy health care (well great if you can afford it) .. they would have a small tariff. Then you get countries like China .. poor wages ... dumping pollution into the water and sky .... a very high tariff. At this point all items would cost about the same no matter where they came from. You would buy because of quality and features rather than buying the cheapest ... usually at the expense of the workers.
Very cool. Their safety practices leave room for improvement but, for what they have to work with they turn out an amazing tank. I have built several fuel tanks for Drag Racing Cars over the years and it takes me a day or 2 working non stop to turn out 1 tank.....shoot these guys have it down to no wasted energy and everybody pitches in. Very Cool. Thanks for the video it shows if you want to bad enough....you can find a way! I would have zero issues buying a tank they made.
You think that's bad check out the video of the guy sitting on his are legs spread wide chopping up lead acid batteries sitting in his crotch while wearing his osha approved pj's and steel toed flip flops. He's got three fingers on one hand 4 on the other two teeth in his head and they're dying of loneliness. But boy can that summsbitch rebuild a battery. I'm pretty sure that's not leprosy just acid burns where his junk used to be.
@@lucian9274 can you imagine what these talented guys could do with up to date equipment? Hell they are making most of the shoes over there. You'd think someone would throw em a bone and hook em up with some Kaepas or some thing. You may not be familiar with those but the leather was so thick on em it was like wearing steel plated tennis shoes. Wear em all day and you get home and find out you lost 4 lbs in your feet alone. Like a steam bath in there.
That is how it is in places like India, I have visited manufacturers in India many times and the workers there work diligently. They develop a rhythm and a steady pace to their work and are very very good at their particular job. They are doing it day in day out and don't have to put much thought into what they are doing, and get great results. Usually illiterate, working to support their family cos the wife usually does not work but keeps the home. The boss finds it cheaper to employ another worker than to buy another machine. Don't know what it is now, but last time I visited a few years back, these guys would have been paid US$5 per day. To put this in context. an orange was 5cents, a shave at the local barber was 10cents. A haircut was 16cents. Occupational Health and Safety seems never to be a priority. That footwear is the closest to safety boots they will have. Sometimes Chappals - leather straps over the foot to the sole. That guy at the start wearing flip flops, and working with sharp sheet metal, uggh. Bet he has cut himself a few times before he learned where to place his feet during cutting.
An important indicator of a very successful operation - They each have 10 fingers and toes, no bandages, no fresh blood from wounds, and no OSHA. Reminds me of my first job in the Glass Factory in Chicago Heights in 1953.
I’m sure they have very solid safety training program to. “Boy don’t stick your fingers there”. Much more efficient than mandatory 8h pre employment training in US.
A pleasure to watch things being done old school or 3rd world way. It shows how ambitious and creative people can be with minimal tooling. Saludes from Costa Rica, Central America.
@@maxalfredjoelasemoule3993 The child labor is a socialization/learning tool. It replaces the sports used in other countries. Those children are enjoying themselves and gaining some self-respect, just like a child would on the ballfield. Only difference is that he's also learning something too. Here in the US, the kids know very little about mechanical things. They would benefit from the experience. IMHO
@@alext8828 I'd love to believe that applies in all cases. And tho the little dude showing tanks at the end doesn't seem to unhappy, he look pretty young, even for a "socialization/learning tool". This should be the age of school and laughters.
When I was a kid in Australia I used to help my dad at work cuting grass.. It's good to see a kid learning things so in the future he can support he's family.. In Australia 80+% of population basically are usles
That's not true, 80% of people know how to buy lattes, use a smart phone, send a text or check their Facebook profile one handed while driving, whinge on social media they are not paid what they are worth, while demanding 6 figure salaries to do what was once considered an entry level occupation, believe success comes before work in the dictionary and Lisa Wilkinson and Whaleed Ali actually know what they are talking about.
I agree, Dad's should include their kids in making or doing things from an early age (if safe), the kid learns at an age when they are eager to copy what Dad is doing, and Dad teaches them the tricks of the trade. They learn self reliance, confidence, and a trade and will never want for a job. If they do some other career, they have an income producing talent they can fall back on if their career doesn't work out. I am glad your Dad included you in this skill. From a saddle maker of 40 years Down Under. I am glad you added your comment.
Wait til you see one of these dudes in another vid, welding without eye protection or without protective gloves. India and Pakistan, seems OH&S is unheard of. Other parts of Asia are similar, seen construction workers on scaffolding of bamboo wearing 'steel capped' flip flops!
@@deldridg Why most of the comments under such videos believe it is india? In fact, not a single factory functioning like this can be found in the automobile sector in India. This is video from some other country.
Tjonge, wat werd daar snel gewerkt zeg. In record-tempo werden de tanks gemaakt door veel handige handen en nog wat pers-, snij- en las-apparatuur. Amazing !
The two young boys are using machines to sequentially process the tanks after which the second boy drops his tank into a pile of other tanks, thereby banging it up a bit, no doubt. Then the tanks go to a man who taps out the small imperfections with a hammer. When this is done, he throws his tank onto the floor with a bunch of other tanks, thereby banging the shit outta all the tanks that much more. Tanks for the memories.
And why you and me didn’t have to pay more than a 100 bucks. And guess where 90 of those go? At least not to these guys, nor the shop owner. I will treat my 60 dollar slightly dented tank with some more respect when I fill in the little dents, sand it and paint it, now that I’ve seen this.
Such casual disregard. If you were making just ONE of these, it would be far, far different. Ore maybe ten or twenty- each one would be a signature unique object of skill and love. Not something to throw around. But TBF, these guys are probably only earning about 10 cents per tank!
