Completely different cultural methods of working are the reason for not having a bench. They also definitely have benches, but the utility in their work methods that use the ground is unending. Just look at Japanese craftsmen, you’ll see the same basic idea of working off the floor.
Yes,, you are absolutely right. After breakage they decide that next time before they heated the metal and then bend it. That anchors are other type of design, I will shoot the video very soon.
You don’t always have to heat metal to bend it, depends on how annealed it is. Hot rolled steel bends easy, cold rolled steel tends to bend harder and cause fractures if not hated first.
I think it's very interesting to see. The lack of safety we all know that... Get over that. But the fact that people live in such way. They're working so hard and have so much skills, yet the image of their country is not really improving. It's interesting to see but I wouldn't want to live there 😅
Rule number one. You CAN'T bend cast iron. The piece of metal that broke a few seconds into the video was cast iron. Any seven year old can tell the difference between steel and cast iron in under a minute.
These men should be admired for there efforts to make a living. The Pakistan Government should be ashamed to allow this abuse of working people without basic safety equipment and training, although these people are skilled and there work ethic is very high.
Impressive work and fabrication, but to be honest they look more like grappling hooks. I wonder what size vessels that they are used on. PS: What shade lense do you use when welding? Squint
The fact that these guys have been doing the whole square peg in a round hole day in and day out for years and yet still have all their appendages says something.
how do we know they have been doing it for years? This place probably has a high turnover rate. I mean, those guys who are welding won't have good eyes for long.

I’m certainly no blacksmith or steel worker but wouldn’t heating the steel allow it to bend? Additionally, WTF kind of metal are they using? Cast? My guess is if it breaks under the stress of that press it will never hold a ship in place.
it's actually the anchor chain that holds a ship. it needs to be heavy and is laying on the bottom. the anchor is just the end of it which helps. to lift anchor the ship will back up towards the anchor while pulling in chain . once it is on top of the anchor it will let to easily.
Wow. These men really know what hard work is. As someone who went nearly blind from cataracts, though, it saddens me to see the lack of proper eye protection during welding. When they start to lose their eyesight they probably won't be able to afford cataract surgery, if it's even available.
Yeah that's not how being blinded works, you can take a very large amount of metal to the eyes without even affecting your vision, i've had my eyes cut with banding iron on two occasions and once with a hockey stick through a goalie mask, getting stitches in my eyes all three times, it really sucks but it doesn't hurt, seeing that sewing needle coming into your eye is pretty freaky and the stitches dragging over your eye lid hurts like hell but it's fine in the end. Welding and cutting I did and still do with no mask or glasses for 40 yrs now still don't wear prescription glasses!
@@Zzrdemon6633why not just protect your eyes better? You’ve been lucky three times. You’ll only have to be unlucky once to have a life-changing experience. I watched it happen to a friend of mine. Horrible. -Take care.
4:30 Apparently, it is not a drawn bar, it looks like it was cut from a steel plate and the rolling direction is transversal to the length, which is why it breaks.
Batching steel is exactly like baking. You need to follow a recipe of ingredients. When you smelt alloy steel along with at least 10 different types of steel you get a mountain of problems. You don't know what the hardness is. The steel will have properties that you don't want. In this video, while they were bending the steel it kept breaking, DUH ! Just what did they think was going to happen? They don't know how to work safely. They have no protective gear. More than half the time they're barefoot. They wear clothing that looks like pajamas. They spend a lot of effort making substandard products. It's not a matter of help it's a matter of education.

Ron is correct, incestual marriages has reduced the average IQ to 65 and this is the best we can expect from them. The “steel” they use is made by melting scrap metal of all types and casted into bar stock like we see here. Sometimes they’ll get lucky and find a section that’ll bend cold. I was in Iraq in 2003-04 and had to deal with civilian workers when we sourced steel plating and they were comical to watch.
Ya think so? Honest work alright, and honest work for corup capitalists. I wonder how many of those honest workers, leaving for work this morning, kissed their wives and children good bye and wondered if they would ever be able to SEE those loved ones again by this afternoon. When that cast iron anchor stock snapped even I could see splinters of metal flying out from the press. Not a pair of goggles in sight much less a man wearing a pair. I noticed all the noble workers were all equipped with steel toed sandals. A moments inattention BY ONE OF THE OTHER MEN and any one of those men will lose a foot. Do you think the owners of that filthy shop pay into a workman's comp fund? I'm sure those men's union require rest breaks at least a couple of times a day. I'm sure during those rest breaks those men rest and talk about their children's school, their wives and parent's health, their portfolio's and their favorite football teams. Given all that I'm sure you do feel a connection with those lucky men. I almost never watch any of these videos. All of the above is why.
the comments are due to the bad workmanship and lack of safety. Look at the guy welding for example, how can he do proper welding closing his eyes. Even if he closes his eyes, he is still damaging them, he will go blind pretty quickly
If you have an OSHA inspector who's Badly Constipated let him watch this video and by the end of it he should be able to Squirt through a screen door without hitting a single wire!!! 🤠👍
Thats probably the owner or a manager who wanted to be in the video. You will note that his clothes are clean, so he doesn't get involved in the normal day to day working of that place.
I think that as soon as the boat/ship begins to drift (in the current or breeze), the anchor will topple over, drag and bite. The guys making and using these things must know their local conditions; they'd have changed the design if captains complained.
I'm totally in awe watching these men and their primitive metal bashing enterprise, it's a shame they haven't perfected the attempted hazardous cold bending operation, nevertheless good luck to them all in their hard working enterprise.
