Thanks chaps.... once again I'm fascinated by a bloke working on bits of metal that I had no idea existed until 20 or so minutes ago. The team make this so accessible and engaging... thanks all.
Beau is an artist...but instead of paintbrushes, his tools are a blowtorch, hammer & a multitude of other hand & power tools. ...& Kurt makes it a viewing masterpiece with his film work & narratives. Cheers Lads 👍
The best thing I've learned from watching the WW videos is how effective heat from a torch is for loosening parts that have been rusted and stuck together for decades. What looks like unusable lumps of rusty metal are often saved and restored. Great stuff!
As usual, Aus Armour proves how entertaining taking apart rusted steel gizmos can be! Especially if they have historical provenence. Beau and Kurt also show us how a genuine friendship can make media content so much more pleasant to watch.
Patience makes perfect. Beau's patience at teasing the bolts loose, and re-assembling the parts so all of them move, is a credit to his years of experience. And for the most part using all the original bits, too.
Allways amazing watching this craftmanship. As a german craftman i allways smiley when you talk about how we craft our stuff. Kurt we hope all is fine, nice that you are back.
Holy Toledo!!! That’s awesome work that Beau is doing. Little parts are one thing but recreating the whole gun mount… gad zooks! Great job recording it all Kurt.
Thank you so much for recording the history of how you blokes restore history. These videos are incredibly interesting, and so damn fascinating to watch. And I can't wait to see the video on the KV-1 that Kurt is standing in front of at the start of the video!
Fascinating. I could watch this disassembly and reassembly process all day long. I should be earning college credit for all the things I learn thru this channel. Best armor restoration channel on TH-cam!!
I liked the way the wrench is build into the mechanism to tighten the roller. Something i would have never seen or learned from a military museum. Thank You
Y'all are genuinely Blessed to have such a talented young man willing to apply his talents refurbishing whatever is thrown his way. Guard him close as others will want his talents for their own shops. Amazing what skills the engineers, and craftsmen the Germans had. Imagine if they had real leadership with the intelligence, and motivation the craftsmen, and all the others in manufacturing had how things might have changed. Probably wouldn't have had the madness that was the trademark of the one's following Hitler surely. Nor would they had aspersions to take over the world either i wouldn't think.
Beautiful work again Beau. I still can’t get over the brilliant engineering, all done while there’s a war going on and they weee under pressure to produce large numbers quickly .
Beau is something else, he's awesome and what a hell of a asset he is to Australian Armour. I hope people watching this can understand the degree of difficulty it was in making this gun mount ,I sure appreciate it thank you Mates
There is just something so soothing to my soul watching a true craftsman perform their art. Beau is that craftsman. Perhaps James May could be convinced to visit for a guest appearance? His "Reassembler" series felt the same way.
Weer een prachtig mooie film verslag van Workshop Wednesday , Bo is again so talented in how to attack stubborn bolts to get lose, and how to temper them to prevent more damage. O Lord i love this channel!!!
Congratulations guys on a BEAUTIFUL restoration and i love how you have all taken so much car of everything! One day i hope to come over from the UK and join Aus Armour fest, and hopefully meet all of you!!
Your Thumbnail reads "STÜÜÜG III". This is the invention of the: 🤘☠️🤘 HEAVY METAL WÖRKSHOP UMLAUT☠️🤘☠️ So Metal on, your are the Mötley Crüe of Armories. 👍
Another great video showing the detail and hard work of those awesome lads working to restore this piece of history and of course, all the others as well. I binge watched the whole StuG build up to date a couple of days ago and appreciate this next piece on the StuG. One of my favorite German vehicles of WW2. Love watching these videos and this one was a great way to start my day. I ate my breakfast, kicked back in the chair and enjoyed this very much! As others have said, what a great way to start the day. Thank you! Keep up the invaluable work guys! You all are appreciated so much. Thanks Kurt for capturing all of this and editing it and getting it out there for us to all enjoy. Can't wait for the next WSW!
An absolutely awesome rebuild of the gun mount! Beau is a really talented fabricator and engineer. The Aus Armour Museum is really lucky to have had Beau working there with his father (since he started there from school I believe,) and they have trained him extremely well.
Ever since I started watching you guys last year when you started doing work on the tiger one I've been hooked ever since. And it's really cool how you try and save some old Parts if you can and then incorporate new parts into the build because some of them were too badly damaged. It's still amazes me that people still go out there and search for World War II parts from the battlefields of World War II.
That piece is the sort of thing that I would love to be able to restore. I know it's just a small piece of the puzzle, but to make it look like new and work like new is relaxing fun. Braze or weld on material to file and grind back smooth all while retaining the function.
It's funny, but within the last week or so I watched a video on EngelsCoachShop where Dave used a smoke wrench and worried fasteners back & forth like Bo did to loosen them without destroying them. You guys are very lucky to have folks like Bo on your Team!
I was praying for you when you were using the wire wheel on the pedestal grinder that it didn't grab your glove. It's really looking great. I can't wait to see it completely assembled and running.
Those rollers were a good size to throw into a bucket of used motor oil for 2-3 weeks before trying to free them. Works well if it's not a right now situation and you can plan ahead a bit.
The amount of work involved in the details is amazing, and the craftmanship shown in restoring them is amazing. Looking forward to the next installment. Cheers from Texas.
As always thank you Australian Armour & Artillery Museum for posting yet another excellent video! Each video you post is highly educational and makes each Wednesday the best day of the week to learn something new from you too!
that makes me smile, it doesn't just happen to me, i am forever frustrated at stupid jobs like this, and it never amazes me that such small parts play an important part in keeping larger things together i often find jobs such as this take several attempts, knocking pins out, getting drills stuck, punches, you drive a pin 7/8 the way out, just for the punch to get stuck, as you try to remove it breaks, the pin falls out, but the piece of punch or drill takes even more effort to remove amazing work boyz
Thats cool, the integrated handle on the stop block is amazing. German complex engineering. But in wartime, you'd loose adjusting wrench, so brilliant.

You guys are a step above all engineers. Thank You Thank you

Toujours tres instructifs ..........
Impressive work!
Professionals at turning complete scrap into valuable and often unique bits of history. 🙂
Saving what looks like pieces of complete scrap, and returning them to their rightful place in history.
The best thing I've learned from watching the WW videos is how effective heat from a torch is for loosening parts that have been rusted and stuck together for decades. What looks like unusable lumps of rusty metal are often saved and restored. Great stuff!
That could be said about VW as well :D

Fantastic, Work shop Wednesday Well done guys.

Great close-up camera work.
That was so impressive to watch. It was even more impressive to see the STUG III G's main gun traversing so smoothly. Well done to all.
Excellent , it's so nice to see the effort you guys go to to bring a machine of history back to life , Thank you
Love everything you guys do. I so look forward to every one of your videos.
Beau's workmanship is just amazing. What a professional. Sign him up. The Herr would've taken him...
What a wonderful way to start a Wednesday! Thanks!!!
Your mechanical magicians did it again. Nicely done!
Fascinating. I could watch this disassembly and reassembly process all day long. I should be earning college credit for all the things I learn thru this channel. Best armor restoration channel on TH-cam!!
WW is great! I think everyone who has worked on rusty old cars will identify with this one. I can smell the penetrating oil on hot metal
Exactly. I look at it and get flashbacks to my MG BGT. (I don't think it's PTSD!)
Got my Aussie Armour fix, well done lads, I'm definitely not a whinging pom now!
I liked the way the wrench is build into the mechanism to tighten the roller. Something i would have never seen or learned from a military museum. Thank You
We need more content longer videos need more
Hour long episodes would be just about right, I agree.🙂
@@AdamWeber-pi1gs a complete job with details of what is going on
Świetna robota 👍. Pozdrawiam całą ekipę z Polski 🇵🇱

I'm so incredibly happy to see the Stug again! Beautiful work. Bonza mates. Cheers!
Its the thingy that holds the bit that makes the big piece move before it can go bang! Hope that helps!😅
To use the correct vernacular
Es ist das Ding, das das Gebiss hält und das nächste große Stück bewegt, bevor es knallen kann 😂
Beautiful work again Beau. I still can’t get over the brilliant engineering, all done while there’s a war going on and they weee under pressure to produce large numbers quickly .
Thanks for another great video! You fellas make me feel like I'm there and involved. I swear, I can almost smell the rust, grease and oil!
as always, beau does impressive work.
Beau is something else, he's awesome and what a hell of a asset he is to Australian Armour. I hope people watching this can understand the degree of difficulty it was in making this gun mount ,I sure appreciate it thank you Mates
Thank you for all your work-you have some VERY clever people there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didn't even know the StuG's gun had horizontal movement. Very cool to see the workings of the assembly.
There is just something so soothing to my soul watching a true craftsman perform their art. Beau is that craftsman. Perhaps James May could be convinced to visit for a guest appearance? His "Reassembler" series felt the same way.
This is first class design analysis. Aus armour have a potential side line business stream here. Value analysis training films.

Great to see you back Kurt. Hope all is well.
Another beauty lads.
Just love watching this guy work.hypnotic😊
Great work Beau & Kurt! 😃👍!
Very good work absolut amazing.
I can imagine by the last shot of the Video how it feels when you stand at the wrong side of this gun.
It is final
Your Thumbnail reads "STÜÜÜG III".
This is the invention of the:
🤘☠️🤘 HEAVY METAL WÖRKSHOP UMLAUT☠️🤘☠️
So Metal on, your are the Mötley Crüe of Armories. 👍
A Shop full of Mötörheads 🤘
That is some sick work on the mount.
Best part of Wednesday is the Workshop Wednesday 😍
its always nice when things come together
The satisfaction that must come after all that work, and to have it work as you envisioned it must feel really good. Well done Beau.
Always an Outstanding video and presentation buy the mechanics and Kurt!
So nice to see our old tech being restored as best as possible and the dedication from you guys.
Absolutely FANTASTIC!! Great video to watch. Well done.
Nice work and … as ever … a gentle reminder that taking it slowly is quicker and cheaper😁! Thank you gentlemen.

Wow! Exciting to see this traverse mechanism wrapped up and the gun mounted in the hull!
Another great video, thank for taking the time to explain what you are doing.
That was brilliant, great to see the gun gliding around after the hard work.
An absolutely awesome rebuild of the gun mount! Beau is a really talented fabricator and engineer. The Aus Armour Museum is really lucky to have had Beau working there with his father (since he started there from school I believe,) and they have trained him extremely well.
Wow! At 13:33 I was thinking:.."Man do NOT break that tiny drill bit off inside that roll pin" (ask me how I know!)
You not only do great work but make excellent videos!
Impressive amount of detail in that build. I like the fact that the wrench to tighten it down was attached so it wouldn't get lost. Lol
One of my favourite tanks. My most favourite is the Jadgpanther.
Another excellent rebuild 😁👌👌👌❤️❤️🇦🇺
Incredible work
You all continue to impress!Thank you for keeping history alive.
Keep up the good work

Wonders never cease at AusArmor ! 👍
First yeah we have yet another great stug iii episode
Engineering and restoration skills at their best , fabulous to watch..
A lot of todays engineers couldn`t do such a clamp with 3D CAD and FEM and they did it with only on paper. Great work on this mount guys.
An absolutely beautiful piece of work. It is going to awesome seeing this Stug in action.
Awesome mates!!!.Keep the history alive!! When y'all tackling the Tiger 1 resto to running order??.That would be the cats meow!!!
That piece is the sort of thing that I would love to be able to restore. I know it's just a small piece of the puzzle, but to make it look like new and work like new is relaxing fun. Braze or weld on material to file and grind back smooth all while retaining the function.
Hello, always a pleasure to watch you! Can't wait for next Wednesday!😀
Fantastic work. Love that Stug project.
Masterful as always!
Greetings from Sweden.
That was a great start to my Wednesday. Many thanks for another awesome resto video.
A thing of beauty
WOW! That looks stunning!
It's funny, but within the last week or so I watched a video on EngelsCoachShop where Dave used a smoke wrench and worried fasteners back & forth like Bo did to loosen them without destroying them. You guys are very lucky to have folks like Bo on your Team!
No end to the teams talents.be an excellent piece for the museum 👏
Seeing the skill and care you guys show, and then watching other channels, you realize that some are literally hacks.
Brilliant, so good to see the Stug coming along. A credit to everyone involved.
Beautiful. My Fav project
I was praying for you when you were using the wire wheel on the pedestal grinder that it didn't grab your glove. It's really looking great. I can't wait to see it completely assembled and running.
So many "fiddly bits," and so much attention to detail. Great to watch.
Always so impressed with the work and passion on display each week.
Incredible job, gentleman. This, Stug will need a brass restoration plate mounted in it with the modern-day names of those who restored it
Kurt Some of the Stug and Panzer designs were done in 1939 (listed as farm tractors). That would be prewar economy. Beau great craftsman work.
Those rollers were a good size to throw into a bucket of used motor oil for 2-3 weeks before trying to free them. Works well if it's not a right now situation and you can plan ahead a bit.
The amount of work involved in the details is amazing, and the craftmanship shown in restoring them is amazing. Looking forward to the next installment. Cheers from Texas.
As always thank you Australian Armour & Artillery Museum for posting yet another excellent video! Each video you post is highly educational and makes each Wednesday the best day of the week to learn something new from you too!
I only wish the videos were longer...I get a little sad when they're over!!!
Fantastic work to one and all
Very good job, guys. And great presentation of traverse angle STUG III had 😉
Master Class work. A joy to watch you guys in action.
Great work.
that makes me smile, it doesn't just happen to me, i am forever frustrated at stupid jobs like this, and it never amazes me that such small parts play an important part in keeping larger things together
i often find jobs such as this take several attempts, knocking pins out, getting drills stuck, punches, you drive a pin 7/8 the way out, just for the punch to get stuck, as you try to remove it breaks, the pin falls out, but the piece of punch or drill takes even more effort to remove
amazing work boyz
Thats cool, the integrated handle on the stop block is amazing. German complex engineering. But in wartime, you'd loose adjusting wrench, so brilliant.
