    BRILLIANT........ made my afternoon.......... Mind you I don't thiuk that those UKicon forumers with a bent for health and safety should watch it - for fear of bringing on a heart attack - or at least a weeks worth of stress. No gloves with all that cutting lube and swarf on the lathes. Where are all the goggles/safety glasses.........? And as for those old fashioned ratios being used, such as 4/5ths of the steel machined away instead of 80%. How did the US ever manage to produce so much using these formula and lack of health and safety at work? Proof firing by hand instead of remote firing. Whatever next. As for the hand action of the attractive girl at 06:26s. It's disgusting......... I need a lay down to recover - and dream!

    Great video Bruce andf thanks
