  • Man if you payed a thousand dollars an hour today you still would not get people to work like that or have the skills needed.

  • Wow. Thats a hard way of making a living. Thats a great video, thanks very much.

  • That was the time of wooden ships and iron men!

  • I struggle to forge weld 12mm bar!! Wow...

  • @Mumwaldee hehe..may have over looked that. what i ment to say still rings true. this kind of blue collar hard work was the stuff that makes a country great..you dont become great by becoming consumers

  • I bet these guys never needed ambien. Could probably fall asleep on a pile of rocks after a day of work like that. Of course a pint of painkiller would probably help too.

  • @ojii111 You know the Netherton chain works is in Britain right?

  • this WAS the heart of USA, industry and hard work at its infancy then big business got greedy and caused the first crash and depression.

    they say those that forget history are going to repeat it and they might be right.

  • @sw8741 hahaha:)

  • It is truly amazing how so many of them instantly find their rhythm, eg when they rivet the shackle.
