There are a lot of useless safety procedures in workplaces these days but I reckon these guys are taking unnecessary risks. Good luck with the restoration. Great to see these old tanks being fixed up.
I agree with whiskeymedic and confusedwhome comments, be careful. I'm glad to see all over in America & Europe new restorations of Sherman tanks. We have a lot of problems with our traks, they are completely out of order. Do you have the same problems? A Dutch company makes new traks for Sherman tank, they will be tested during September by the Dutch Cavalry Museum. The first price for a pair is about $ 37775, maybe cheaper if a lot are ordered. Have a look at my videos.
Ya gotta protect all body parts from the intense UV from that unshielded arc-welder. Even from stick-welder. Or run serious risk of super-nasty skin cancers.
Interesting video.... but grinding and welding without the proper gear. Gloves not being worn, where were the safety aprons? And the guy grinding with the hot pieces heading towards the welders head looks painful to say the least.
i like how the grinder guy throws all the sparks in the welders face !

I agree, use of proper safety gear is a MUST - he will have retina damage when he gets older - I assure you of that!
