I agree I think Kurt does great maybe it would be simpler to show drone shots of inside and outside of museum while he reads his introduction. We don’t need to see him every time we know how handsome he is .

Watching someone paint a stug clutch pedal with a rattle can …my life is complete now. Just wonderful

Even though it was about 5:00 AM EST when the video dropped, I perked right up when your name was mentioned...."Did AusArmor just mention Adam Mann?? Cool!" They definitely consulted the right guy about Stugs.

I was thinking at the beginning - Kurt is back up to full strength, but seeing his outtakes we can understanding why there's a workshop video only once per week !!! Ha Ha - excellent progress Beau and Glen and good to see Kurt almost back to 100% !!

Thank you Kurt for sharing your bloopers on the intro. Just shows you are human and not everything goes to plan, and you have a sense of humor and can laugh at yourself and share that laugh with the rest of us so again thank and all of you at the museum keep up the great work and look forward to next Wednesday for the last round.

I can agree with all the comments. At 54K views, Aus Armour is doing it right. Great work by all, as always, and Kurt, thanks brother for showing us what it takes to get such a quality result every week. I too dread hearing that the soothing music. Over too soon. Next week can't come soon enough. A great fix for the week. A retired Canuck, I could watch more, all day! But that would mean more editing time for Kurt, so I'll just be thankful for each week's episode we are blessed to see.

The dreaded music means the episode will be over too soon. Another great episode. Thank you.

LOL...The bloopers at the end of your video were priceless Kurt ! I now understand why you take a few days off when you're under the weather. Your job sure requires a CLEAR MIND.

Craig, you are a true star, bloopers galore.

You know, thanks for the outtakes, because it shows that you put a ton of work into making the videos. But to be honest, you make it look easy from this side of the camera. Great job Aus Armor.

Those out-takes were absolutely HILARIOUS, I spat my coffee out laughing so much! I love all the work that you guys are doing. Also, adding that little snippet at the end, makes us love all you guys so much more!!

love the outtakes .. you are human ;)

Just think all those linkages and levers were designed without computers and on paper drawings. Kinda mind boggling. Very cool to see it come together.

Aus Armor videos are one of the hi lights to my week. They’re such a joy to watch, and such a letdown when they end. The creativity, tradecraft, and historically informative content are amazing to witness. If I ever have the opportunity to visit Australia from the US, your museum and workshop are at the top of my bucket list. Thank you for the love of historical accuracy and preservation you put into all of your exhibits. You all are truly amazing.

Omg! The bloopers at the end!! I'm dying . So funny Kurt, definitely keep adding those at the end of each vid!!!

I look forward to this every Wednesday!

'stralian adjustment: a hammer. LOL Beau at his best. Love that guy! Dimitry's a chad, too.

Don't normally comment but I saw the first video drop which was replaced by this one. I got two Aus-armour videos today! Pretty happy! Also, loved the out-takes. Really love this channel, next time I'm in Cairns I'll definitely come n visit.

When I saw the rod end yoke had a notched shank I wondered if it was for a clevis pin spring clip, took a look and all the modern ones stop to the sides but never seem to reach around to where the notch is. Not saying that WW2 German vehicles didn't have them but Beau might be right about a safety clip for the nut although I can't say I've seen that before, but have seen two jam nuts used there and nylocks. I do enjoy AusArmour restoring these old vehicles and of course Kurt's camera work, with Many Thanks!

I only figured out something was up with the last one when he got to "muffler shop" lmao

Being a hyper literalist I chuckled at the term passenger side, I really loved the outtakes

2 videos in one day, even if one was an old one 😂, awesome

For quite some time, Kenworth trucks used torsion bar suspension on their prime movers. Known in the industry as "broom sticks" they had a heavy rating for GCM. It was possible for them to snap. There is a story that a truckie broke down in outback queensland, and had a friend fly out a new torsion bar in a cessna..........but there was nowhere to land. So his friend threw the torsion bar out the plane at low altitude near the broken down truck.

Thanks for adding that last bit Kurt. It hadn't occurred to me that you had a challenging job the way you edit your content. well done lad.

I don’t know why I got two episodes this week, but I’m not complaining!

To Aussi Armour, i don't remember when that Stug was built but if it's built in 1944 or before, paint should be rotbraun basecoat, then dunkelgelb and then camouflauge pattern. After 1945, paint after basecoat it could only be dunkelgelb or dunkelgrün. And plus camouflage pattern colors

such interesting engineering decisions they made back 80/90 years ago compared to how we think and design today love these videos

Thanks for my Stug fix! Gotta love German engineering... love the bloopers at the end lol

This is one of the few things I look forward to every week, and Workshop Wednesday makes it worth it.

Yippee! It's Wednesday and that means...................

Love the outtakes!

German engineering never ceases to amaze me.

I'm amazed how Beau got that corroded brake to work.

Amazing! the plumbing to remove the brake pad dust

@creightonleerose582

22 күн бұрын

Pretty cool/simple method to use the centrifugal force present within already existing parts to accomplish a secondary task. I wonder what the pad material was made from as to WW2 German tanks & AFV's? -Prob Asbestos?... In that case, YES, you'd DEF want such piped >> outtve >> the vehicle!...But still dangerous, as I cant see such a unique system capturing, collecting, containing & extracting 100% of the brake dust outtve the brake drum or crew compartment itself?....

Ending - the best off the start😂

Fantastic episode!. Love the bloopers, shows how much effort goes into these videos.

Another great Episode, thanks Guys! Nice to hear that Evan McCallum and Adam Man shared some Information on the paintjob. They are great guy and knows their StuGs

AWESOME! BEST SHOW ON KZread!! This makes my Wednesday!

The struggle is real Kurt!!.😂😂😂😂👍👍

It might help to write the intro on a white board and read from there? Just an idea. Quite some engineering gone into those tanks although all tanks would have had similar working parts. Certainly kept an assembly line busy.

Another fun watch! Thank you Kurt for putting these together and for filming the lads and all the hard work they do. I still marvel at, and am envious of, the lads being able to build and work on these awesome vehicles and equipment every day. My literal dream job. I truly love Wednesday's for being able to see the latest episode of AusArmor TV, aka Workshop Wednesday's. Keep up the great work lads! Can't wait for next week's episode.

C'mon Kurt! Stick to the script!! Thanks for another great video!!!

Keep at it Kurt. You're doing great !

Kurt's outtakes are hilarious. Funny how the brain just disconnects from the speech center at times.

Amazing engineering on a vehicle that is designed to go into harm's way. A vehicle that may have a lifespan of weeks, days, or even hours.

Great work on the brakes. Bo or Beau surely is a craftsman. For a Ginger. Never knew he was a curly haired Ginger. He has the skills of one of the Dwarf Blacksmiths of Asgard. He does do what seems to be magic work sometimes. Does he have engineering training, or does he have a natural eye for spacial mechanics. I noticed Dez has similar skills for figuring things out also. Your whole staff seems to be very talented in their own niches. It is a pleasure to watch people knowing what they are doing. After this project take a run down to Brisbane and look up Jade Blair.

Love the out takes at the end. Keep up the great work, Kurt from Oz Armor!

Two for the price of one! It’s a good day. 😂

Love the out takes at the end and just shows how hard it is. Ive been there and done that and its not easy. great work as always guys.

As a retired photographer I have recorded thousands and thousands of stand-up's and I just told reporters to remember 2 or 3 points and to BS the rest. It generally helps the editor if there is a pause between takes and what you are doing is not natural so you are doing a good job.

Been following this video series since day 1. Lovew it. Keep up the good work, lads.

Still liked the other one even though it was a repeat

Making video is as difficult as restoring a Stug!!😄

You've been watch a little bit of kurtis Cutting Edge Engineering for your edition skills 😅

Your stug is amazing, entertaining viewing. Thank you guys.

Love the blooper reel. Needed to crack a smile this morning and you gave it to me, along with the great StugIII content. Thanks.

Bo is priceless. 🙂

You all are an inspiration, I am making a 1/2 scale Stug out of wood and powered by a gocart engine. I was going to do a Tiger, however could not fund good drawings. So a Stug it was.

Kirk you are a true professional....👌

Video production ain't easy. Love your work 👍

Good morning from Virginia! One more great video, they are just to short!!! Curtis you gave your secrete away. We thought these videos were a one take breeze. Beau, you make the most complicated workings on a Stug sound simple. Big round of applause for Dmitri and his planning ahead on parts ordering!!!!

I love Workshop Wednesday. Your staff does amazing work, and the subject mater is so cool.

What a wonderful job. That's not employment, it's a dream come true ! Working out the genius behind the design, to find what is missing and how it should've worked. What a divine mixture of skills, Renovation, Restoration, fabrication and a detective story ! Thanks for 22 minutes of pure escapism.👍🏼 It's what Wednesdays were made for.🤔

Great épisode and funny bloopers ! Thanks

Loved the outtakes , lets you know it isnt as easy as you think .

Love your work guys. Thanks. You have to wonder how they originally decided to use so many moving parts. It's as if they had a build requirement, and then fit it in around what was already designed. I am sure it was more technical than that, but looks at these legacies we have.

Kurto mate with that blooper reel at the end i hope they're paying you by the hour 😂

All these episodes are brilliant! Historians of the future are going to love all the dedication you all show.

Love the blooper reel

Hi Kurt, I like your bloopers!😂

I would have thought those holes in the brake shoes and the 'exhaust' ducting setup would have been more for forced brake cooling rather than dust extraction?

I so much enjoy watching everyone working to put these old armor items back in working order. Keep it up.

Chaps, this is a bit like Vice Grip Garage. “This Stug has been in a swamp for seventy years…….will it run and drive 300 miles home to Cairns?” The clue was in the Craigslist rebuild with spraycan.

Another awesome restoration work as always !. Didn't know the Stg3 has ventilated drum brake on it !. I've just started building a model of Stg3 G so I've decided to paint my model just like this Stg !. 👍
