Directed by Leon Schauder for the Gaumont-British Instructional company in 1940, "Shipbuilders" shows the operation of a shipyard and the building and launching of merchant vessels from keel to smokestack. A shipwright named Charlie Brown is interviewed in the course of the film, and the riveting and shaping of steel for the hull of a merchant vessel is shown.

Not a hard hat amongst them. The guy with the welding machine at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="440">7:20</a> isn't even wearing goggles. Health and safety wasn't considered important in those days and accidents were frequent, and quite a few were fatal.

I like what you say but it's a burning machine. I used one many times in Harland and Wolff.

@robbiem1961 2 года назад

The welding machine is a 'pug' oxy-acetylene cutting tractor; before it's pointed out, Oxy-fuel gas as acetylene was not the sole combustible gas used,👍

That’s real work, back when the ships were made out of wood and the men were made out of iron.

Wonderful please upload more. Did anyone see the very similar swastika at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="463">7:43</a> immediately after the chap said common enemy?

The men didn't even have gloves. They were as hard as nails. Real men! Not like today. What's happened our country.

@rosewhite--- 7 лет назад

those workers show the aging effects of suppressed wages and suppressed diet of starch and fats.

@keithdouglas4581 6 лет назад

Rose White My father worked in the shipyards as a riveter in the 1920s & 1930s after serving in the war he came out and did various jobs, finishing work at the age of 70 never having had a day off sick in his life,which rather gives the lie to your propoganda about suppressed wages and food.

@GOLDSMITHEXILE 5 лет назад

They had time served valuable skills that they were proud of. The socialist brave new world they were conned into supporting has proved to be anything but...If you want to discuss suppressed wages (and employment opportunities) look no further than the collectivising despots who operate the eu empire. As for fancy food, too many people nowadays are too bloody picky and choosy (because its one of those first world food police "problems") and deserve to go hungry just to get things in perspective. you walk along any average British shopping centre, and you will see the destructive effect of obesity that is universal these days, caused by gluttony and lack of any physical exercise (apart from operating a mobile phone)

@@GOLDSMITHEXILE "They had time served valuable skills that they were proud of." So did guys who made thatched rooves but it doesn't mean we should keep thatching our rooves just to keep them in a job. Times change. Methods change. Shipbuilding today requires different skills than back then.

@@johnschofield2818 It's cheaper. That's how capitalism works. Labour is a cost. If you want cheap stuff you have to have cheap labour or automation to make said stuff.
