How long would you say the paperwork would take to process toady! Those were the days of "cans not cants" :bow:

Full credit to them, just shows what can be achieved with simple machinery in the right hands.......not a computer about, proper tradesmen! :bow: :bow: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Great video, thanks. :bow:
Wonderfull what could be achieved with a bit of sweat, common sense, experience and "NO REGULATIONS TO GET IN THE WAY." :!: :!:
Regulations can be a bigger problem today than anyting those men encountered on the job. :think:
Experience is the best teacher and you can't learn that on a training course. :roll:
