Somewhat related, the Youtube channel Pakistani truck (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC64FbxoHfUWd5hykYk5_BvQ/videos https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC64FbxoHfUWd5hykYk5_BvQ/vid...). Here's a good example video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9E3TnJX61Oo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9E3TnJX61Oo
It's absolutely amazing how good of work they do using ridiculously crude tools. Extremely skilled people. I strongly recommend you don't watch if you're a manager or OSHA inspector, though.
- throwaway0a5e 6y agoThey have a pretty well set up shop. Big (enough for what they need) lathe, mill, welders a multitude of presses and typical power tools. What they don't have is ubiquitous power tools for each and every job. Those are characteristic of high labor cost environments. All the "crude" stuff is just job specific tooling that you amass over they years. Someone needs to teach them how to properly install rivets (they would be substantially stronger with no additional work if they heated the whole body) and the one guy who actually welds properly needs to teach the rest of them to do so too.
