    The sound on the slow motion parts was head and shoulders above the crowd for car repair and modification videos! The influence of Hans Zimmer is very clear. His film scores have been described as a Panzer division landing on the soundscape. In this case, it's more like a ballerina materializing out of a teleporter in mid pirouette. Gentle and graceful. Give that person a raise!!

    • @RussellCope
      @RussellCope Před 28 dny +1

      The musical influences pre-date Hans Zimmer. This owes everything to the Blade Runner soundtrack by Vangelis and The Terminator by Brad Fiedel. No doubt Hans was later influenced by them though. Although back in the 80s his most famous work was the theme tune to BBC daytime quiz show Going for Gold.

    They didn't mention the smell, and I honestly don't know how to describe it, but you never forget it, and even after years, I never got used to it. You do learn to ignore it, however.

    My very first job out of school was working in a galvanising factory in Melbourne Australia. This has certainly brought back some memories. It was interesting that there were some differences. I wonder if that is due to progress in techniques and safety measures.
    An informative and well presented episode.

    So very cool to see this process! It's also very cool that there are so many insanely good companies out there doing all sorts of stuff that you normally don't even think of until you need their services! Can't wait to see that thing powder-coated! 😁👍

    Hot dip galvanizing can change the Tensile strength of the steel. Making it prone to cracking. Just ask a carpenter if there is a difference between driving regular nails and galvanized nails.

    Brilliant ED China strikes again. Thoroughly enjoyable yet informative episode and yes, I do live in the outer Hebridean isles (Thanks to your chap at Shropshire Galvanisers for recognising we exist) and you do need as much protection on your metal as you can get as it is very unforgiving environment for rmetal work. All the best to everyone involved in making this excellent video. 👋👌

    Hello, Edd, finally you reappeared after so long (the last time I saw you on tv, was in ‘Wheeler Dealers’), you have the same charisma as always, with your smile, intelligence, good mechanic, you have the patience, good moral, good humor, you are an example of person for all, you continue teaching from your workshop, hopefully, you become a classroom teacher to teach new mechanics, not only for classic cars, but for all the cars that have been manufactured to date, with new tools of today.

    What a superbly instructive video. The camera work was top notch and the music complementary. I learnt so much about the technical aspects of galvanising. I won't knock the current WD's videos so many do, but what you're doing now is a world away from your old show. Looking forward to the powder coating episode. QQ: Why the long gaps between episodes may I ask?
