Good to see the project on track
lmao
Wheelie good pun
i see what you did there.
Here's your coat........😂
Tanks for the laugh
Great to see the lil panzer running and OMG Workshop Thursday tomorrow
Trackday Thursdays? Replacing tracks or just taking vehicles for a spin.
Just watched 20min video of track fitting. Time well spent!
Now you know how to do it when you restore a tanklet.
@@davidshanahan5134 Ha, must get on. I`m gettin the look from the neighbours.
Watching Workshop Wednesday is always time well spent. 😁
Yes, indeed I wish this show was two hours long 👍
Actually doing it for real is strangely therapeutic.
Once again, ingenuity and practical skills making a seemingly impossible project look easy. Well done gentlemen.
Working on the track was fascinating to me. I spent over a decade working with the M1/M1A1 Abrams track .. and whatever version was really, really heavy which means watching this "cute" track being manhandled made me smile in appreciation.
Its very enjoyable to see how pile of parts changing into piece of living history, moving on own power in bonus. Thank's for giving us closer look of Yours hard work, stay safe and bring more fantastic restoration in future!
It is nice seeing the baby going for A walk and some fresh air.
Fantastic! Looks a bit like an unpainted Matchbox kit with the bright two tone colouring!
That is the perfect sized tank for these modern roads, with no issue finding a parking spot! I wants one.
Yippee a bonus episode 😊can’t wait. The Panzer 1 is looking awesome
Wow! Congratulations, guys! Thanks for the extra effort, Kirt.
Definitely the best job in the world.
Agreed, this would be my dream job.
My colleague visited your museum last week (we are in Perth on the other side of the country, but he was visiting Cairns). He knew I watched these videos and I really want to see the museum in person. He bought me one of those water bottles that look like a tank shell from your souvenir store. It's awesome! I've been taking it to the gym and getting a few weird looks. He snapped a photo of Jason working at the front desk too (he took the photo because the desk is shaped like a tank).
Saw the tank drive for the first time in however many years, cheered out loud, woke the wife up. Now she's mad, but she doesn't understand it's a running Panzer I.
Job WELL done, gents.
Hey Kurt! Loved the camera angle you put in at 19:26. Really goes to show the interesting and unique viewpoint that many of us will never get to see. It also speaks volumes about the time, effort, and dedication that you go to showcase the talents of these remarkable men doing such wonderful preservation work. It also brings to life what the actual armoured crewmen of these tanks, would've gone through in the everyday drudgery of maintenance and repair back in WW2. Keep up the absolutely brilliant work! Cheers from Canada!
All I can say my poor back. Great work boys. It has been a wonderful journey watching you restore that Panzer with the confidence that you all show in your mechanical and metal skills/abilities. Awesome!!!
Test drive Thursday , sounds like a good thing.
Haha yes
He now drives for the Aus armour museum. All we know, he`s called the Stug!
Workshop Wednesday, the ultimate drug, & I am completely hooked!
I always want more!
My career in the Australian Army was always attached to Armoured Corps, & I loved my job...
So, now, I live my life vicariously through the Australian Armour & Artillery Museum CZcams channel, & their fantastically talented & dedicated staff.
Jealous? Not much!
Were I younger, I would camp on their doorstep, until they got so sick of me, I would be accepted as a volunteer, to add my skills to the pool of talented tradies who work at the best job I could imagine...
Anyway, enough of my daydreaming, & thanks to the Australian Armour & Artillery Museum for feeding this wonderful addiction!!😂
Incredible work mates! That looks like a million bucks with the new paint job. You'll be the envy of museums round the globe with this beauty!
I couldn't help but think about The Chieftain licking his lips in anticipation of reviewing the track tensioning system of the PZ I.
He's probably already packing his bags.
Glad to watch from America 🇺🇸
Glad to watch from Malta Europe.
Glad to watch from the Philippines.
You guys are doing so great with the videos, been watching from near the beginning, nice work Kurt and all those of Aus Armor, hope you have a good fest this weekend.
Track bashing is always fun. Good job guys
How cute, just the perfect size to have in the backyard shed, pity there weren't a few more about.
Can't wait to see it trundle around the track this weekend....STOKED!!!!
Fantastic work, the lads have excelled themselves.
The fastest 20 minutes on CZcams!
I have the utmost respect for anyone working with metal and this little number is so cool. Tanks!
very well done guys and it's great to see such a rare tank back in working order
The guys have done a fantastic job to get it to this point from just the tub I remember seeing last year
And look at it now running and driving 👍👍👍
Workshop Wednesday , excellent
18:16 is a master class in editing timing...Well done to the editor 🙂
Hands down the most entertaining fabrication show on the interwebs.
Amazing results using simple tools. Keep up the good work, love your videos.
Amazing work by Daryl and Jesse! Well done guys.
Such a beauty. You did a great job on that tank. Can't wait to see the rest tomorrow. 👍😀
Ooo this is exciting! The only running Panzer I in the world is almost done!
Thank God it's Wednesday!
Simply fabulous. It looks like a huge RC model on the move. What a great result.
Looking forward to Workshop Thursday and the final pictures before the weekend.
i love this tank
great job as usual and on such a rare tank.
Congrats to the team, must be quite a feeling of achievement getting it moving.
The moment the lil panzer was driving around was awesome! Good job!
Thanks to all your skill has given us a great exhibit to look at next visit
Interesting how the track was placed. The Aus Armour team had a concrete floor - think how the same operation would have been carried out, in a paddock (wet, muddy) side of a road (dusty), in the rain. From what I have read of German Panzer crews completing this operation - no different to what Aus Armour has shown, only the terrain was different.
Wow! The dummy MG seemed to take as much work as the tracks! Good on you all!
If I ever make it to Oz, the museum will be at the top of my visit list.
"Hi I'm Kurt from Aus Armour and welcome to Reparaturwerkstatt Donnerstag!"
Hmmm.
A free video!!
Looks awesome. In paint.
Guys cracked it once again
Kurt. Your old fella is a wizard. Could be called. A National treasure. 😂
Arh 2 episodes in one week, twice as happy, 😊, great looking tank , well done!
My fav tank! What an incredible work by you guys!
Fantastic craftsmanship
Absolutely looks great
It`s so great to see the Pz 1 coming together so well, it`s a great idea going hydrostatic for the drives.
Fantastic job Darrell and Jess! You guys have killed it the past year.
Thanks again for a brilliant episode, and a Workshop Thursday. How lucky can a man be. Cheers
Fantastic job! Looking forward to tomorrow.
Great vid lads. Never seen a tank small as that. Fascinating content. Looking forward to tomorrow
She looks amazing. Well done gents.
Great work guys as usual. and great lathe work from Daryl - Not bad for a Chippy !!
Great Channel- Look forward to it each week!
Wednesdays are best enjoyed in the workshop, love seeing all of the projects and maintenance you do!
Nope. Actually there's 97 track links per side! - If my 1/16 scale model panzer IB is correct! I just finished the tracks the other day! 776 parts in the 2 sides in fact! It took me nearly 2 weeks to make them up with metal pins, but now they're finished they work beautifully! Working on return rollers & a paint mask for them too! Nearly forgot! I made up a paint mask for the 10 road wheels, but luckily there's plenty of room for 8 return rollers too! I'll probly sell the mask for $25 or $30 on flea bay to the next builder when I'm done with it!
Great video fellas! Thank You!
What fantastic work! The boys really did a great job! Love seeing them fabricate that machine gun.
Woohoo, it's a bonus week🤩
The best collection in the southern hemisphere :D
Can't wait for tomorrow 😊
Love your work. Wonderful to see the Pz 1 moving as it did. Thanks so much guys.
Guys out there come on give the team some well deserved. Congrats.
If you’re not subscribed. It’s free. And give them the thumbs up. Every little helps guys.
After all. The work and time the Aus armour guys put in. Help grow the channel.
Thanks
I picked up scale model building again after a multi decade pause. It's really interesting following your projects as you really dig in to details and let us viewers get some understanding of how things look and their function. 👍
Awesome job you guys! Nothing more satisfying seeing a project running and driving.
Great job guys, Can't wait to see it on Saturday at Aus Armour!
Great to see what your able to get done with what you have to work with. You have the best of the best working on all these tough projects. I look forward to seeing the end results of all the hard work that has been put into each rebuild.
So cool!
That sleeve work on Jess's arms looks fantastic.
Bruce Crompton is just fantastic. Can you believe this Pzkw I Ausf. A? It is an Ausf. A ---- I think....?
Sad reminders of the Holocaust, but these also mark history with the greatest armor clash the world has ever seen. They used steel chariots in the ancient days of the Bible. The tanks mark both World Wars as military inventions.
This Pzkw I Ausf A has been completely restored. I wished they could have had these tasks going prior to the making of the movies "A Bridge Too Far" and "Saving Private Ryan."
Robert Shaw's "Battle of the Bulge" film was in desperate need of these. That Panzerkampfwagen I could be inserted in a movie role with Sdkfz 234 armored cars as it relates to the Pzkw II and Luchs.
Thanks for all that you do. Thanks to Bruce Crompton also. This is exciting to see these life sized vehicles that were all destroyed after WW2 for scrap metal.
Okay.... answering my own question... It's an Ausf. B instead. The Ausf. B version is a little bigger than the Ausf. A
Good on ya all!
Cute Little Tank! Great Job! Needs a skull on the front and flames on the sides! 😂
So satisfying, watching those track link pins go in… Reminds me of something else, but I can’t think what! You guys are true craftsman… Beautiful work!
You guys are amazing. So cool to see the panzer come back alive. Gut gemacht !
Such a small vehicle! But then it's basically a mobile machine gun nest, with armor only meant to stop shrapnel and rifle-caliber bullets. Beautiful job, guys!
So good to see this one running, great work people.
Aw, loved the iron oxide and black camo paint job! Great for going unseen when infiltrating surrealist armoured columns! 🤣😁
Question / suggestion.... for smthg like track links. why don't you put them in an electrolysis bath to take all the rust off, then heat them and oil quench to Hot Blue them..?? or have them plated.
Bloody brilliant. Nice job!
Beautiful work. The scale of the Panzer 1 compared to some of the other restorations is kind of cool. It's very relatable seeing it scoot around under its own power.
I love showing these videos to my mom, she's not a tank nut like I am but she loves heavy machinery and mechanic work so videos like these are a common ground for us
Im so glad the project is ON TRACK!!
GET IT?
Can’t get enough of work shop Wednesday, bloody awesome
Awesome job guys! And bonus Trackday Thursday to come!
I love the fact that Darryl is an old school guy, measurements involving tape & pencils
Amazing job fellas!!!
Got to be a good feeling to get another one done!!
Great video today. Looking forward to Thursdays video, and of course fix it Friday with Steve.
How absolutely killer is that?
To see them in documentaries during the Blitzkrieg is one thing but to see one rebuilt and running WOW!
Tell Jessie that’s a Rosser of a tattoo on the inside of his right arm.
These guys must be wizards, because they do MAGIC!!
WOO HOO BONUS!
Nice to see all the work and the resulting returns, I was going to say, watching it drive initially I thought it was not 'track slipping' seemed a bit extra jerky but the comment about engine tweaking to fix the uphill etc explains that! Good work all!
glad to see the panzer up and running, the scale model was hilarious, and as someone who has worked with masking tape, I FEEL that pain that forced you to just resort to grinding it off. i was gonna originally comment that i feel your pain with the masking tape, but then i saw the grinder come out to get it off lmao. love you guys hope i can come over from Oregon USA to visit and hopefully donate some day
I'm always up for a bonus episode😊
Wow, sure looks good! Well done lads.👍
Blooming Awesome. And a double installment this wee too. Thanks guys. Workshop Wednesday and Test Track Thursday.....
Well done, great to see it running again!
