You lads and your museum are such a blessing to our country. I cannot thank you enough for keeping Australia's military history alive and bringing so many foreign pieces here for us to learn about.
I was thinking the same thing, except I would broaden it to say the world history is what you are keeping alive.. In todays messed up woke world of " changing " history, god bless youi.
American here. I know we're supposed to be the gun people but this is seriously impressive. I'd like to visit someday.
Very impressive national tank museum and I’m jealous we don’t have one here in the US that takes pride in tank restoration the way we do taking care of aircraft. 😅
I was lucky enough to visit the museum last week and was even lucky enough to exchange a few words with Daryl. This was a highlight of our visit to Cairns very well worth a visit.
I have also been that lucky. The boys do like a chat if they are not too busy. AND - remember to buy an annual entry while you are there. You might not get back in the year but it goes to keeping the work happening.
I was there in March. Loved every minute of it
Hope one day you guys can get a Panzer 2, but having a Panzer 1 (and a running one at that) is gonna be so cool
Jose Martinez, and a group of friends made a Panzer 1 replica based upon a local museums Panzer 1. He probably has a lot of drawings, info, etc. Their tank ran at Bovington last year.
I’ve seen images from that build - these guys should definitely talk to each other.
I saw that at Tankfest and was very impressed.
Congrats guys on 142,000 subscribers this channel is really picking up now, well deserved.
You guys are becoming one of the coolest military museum's
It's actually kind of a privilege to see the parts come apart for the first time in so long.
I'm telling you that if these episodes were 2, 3, 4, or 5 hours long each week, I wouldn't get anything done on Wednesdays. Great work, guys. It makes you wonder about the shortsightedness of people doing the scrapping. But most just wanted to make sure it wouldn't happen again.
It was very tough times making a living after WW II ... But indeed, if ever we could time travel ...
May I say how I look forward to Workshop Wednesday. Keep up the good work lads. 90 yr old POM.
Hi guys,
"Continental" is a german brand founded in 1871 in Hannover.
The Company I am still working for 🙂
Just as it starts getting really interesting it’s over for another week! Thanks for uploading and keep up the great work 🍻
What a surprise! I cannot get through the tempo you guys are working at. The amount of work you all are accomplishing is breathtaking!
I love watching the team work on the equipment, the videos keep getting better and better
What a superb video ! Really looking forward to watching this tank 'evolve'. For a tank enthusiast this is THE must watch channel. Congrats chaps !!!!
As I understand it, the Panzer 1 was initially developed, at a time when Germany was still prevented from building any tanks, as a training tank and to help develop armoured vehicle doctrine and tactics. So the thin armour is understandable.
Hard to believe that the ball bearing still has the same number: Rillenkugellager 6309 (45x100x25 mm)
I noticed that as well.
I have done US half tracks, when doing the brakes, I used off the shelf truck parts, they were the same and those parts are available still. Because of manufacturing standards, we are now seeing parts that have been in use across many different machines since for 130 years. This will continue, why after all invent a new bearing and give it a new number when there is no need.
@@oldfarthacksI could agree more. I have been delighted to buy off the shelf bearings and oil seals for my milling machine which was new in 1952.
@@oldfarthacks There are some part number changes and some bearing lines do die out, but yeah, for the most part, anything built within 130 or so years, maybe even a bit more... you can use off the shelf parts. That's standardization for ya.
Ich wünsche euch viel Erfolg bei der Restauration des Panzer 1 und der anderen Projekte. Schön das der Panzer in fahrbereitem Zustand wieder auferstehen soll. Ich find des immer besser diese Fahrzeuge in Aktion zu sehen. So wie bei eurem AusArmourfest , Bovington Tiger Days / GB, Saumur / Frankreich oder Militracks in Overloon / Niederlande.
Grüße aus Deutschland
That countdown intro with the the various Panzers was great lol
American Heritage Museum recently put one on display as a non-runner but with a full interior done up about a year ago. It’s cool to see another being restored, given how rare they are
It's fascinating to see how thin that hull is. It's not armor, it's boiler sheets.
The Panzer I was primarily intended as a 'training' tank, one reason why it was armed with only two machines guns.
@@JM-lk6womore than a training tank The panther 1 was conceved like a tankette that's why The twin MG 34's on The turret and The light armour
Yet they attacked into France, Belgium and Russia!
@@frankbodenschatz173 , that's true. It wasn't intended to be so used by the German General staff, but Hitler wanted a war before Panzer IIs and IIIs were available in sufficient quantity.
A Panzer 1 in the country, I can't wait to see it come together.
We’ll just make one out of a piece of 50mm 😮.
As you do! 😂. Love the matter of fact way they treat these problems 😂
I hope everything goes well with the panzer 1 project
The panzer 1 and 2 are two of my favorite panzers. They were outdated before they went into combat, but they were just neat little tanks! The Panzerkampfwagen II Ausf. L "Luchs was also a neat design!
they were basically only for training purposes,as the war came much faster than anticipated by the germans. if you dont believe,check with admiral raeder,he was convinced by hitler,no action before 1943/5.
AND,the P1 still had to be built under disguise from the other powers's eyes!
In 1939 the Pz II was still pretty good. Although its armour was too thin, the 20mm auto-cannon could punch through anything the Poles had. The armour on many Pz II’s was upgraded for the France campaign in 1940 but the cannon couldn’t scratch the better French tanks.
"better tanks"...its all about the usage of motoriced power and you can have 100 t tanks divided to the infantry and will never achieve nothing...the german had these two types(1+2) mainly as training units,as the former restrictions and the transportation capabilities didnt allow heavier ones.
the technical capabilities would have been there,but were'nt used@@sirrathersplendid4825
Your intro count down was brilliant.
YEAH .... THIS is what I tune in for, guys! GOOD VIDEO!
Showing how the bearings and sprocket are assembled is fascinating, just like looking over their shoulder in the shop. Keep it up folks this is why Wednesdays are a day to look forward too 👍🏻
this is more like it! more panzer restoration!
I work in the machine industry and haven't seen a bearing come out of China that looks as good as that 90 year old Swiss one. You can tell that a whole lot of care went into the manufacturing of it. Look at how smooth the cage is and how nice the part number punchings are.
Learn something new every week from these videos, Cast Alloys on Panzer 1s. Krupps Sportscars indeed. The great increase in Aircraft production in last year of the war, recycling B17 & B24 wrecks!.
It’s amazing to see how you guys are dealing with restoring of old army vehicles.
Send you love from the Netherlands
17:41 and I just realized that the same reason I love watching these get disassembled is the same reason I love vintage MRE/Rations
Workshop Wednesday is the highlight of my week! Absolutely love it!
It's Great to see the team start a new project. I first got interested in your channel when they were restoring the Grant. It was the same tank Humphrey Bogart was commanding in the 1943 WWII movie Sahara. Really excited to be following this new project.
I'm absolutely enamored by this program and the work you fellas do! I may be a bit nerdy, but this is my new favorite TH-cam channel! You guys Rock! Thank you for what you do! 💥💨😎🤟👍
It`s soooo impressiv still finding something related to the Pz 1. Tiger or Panther parts are not easy to find too, but Pz1 come on, maybe somewhere in a desert in spain or so.....
I'm terrified of flying. But I think with the help of some bourbon I can muster up the courage to see your wonderful collection. Coming from Kentucky and a former US Army Abrams gunner. Thanks for your hard work and excellent videos.
Fun & Games! Back in the day, I would have leapt at the chance of a job like yours! Lots of old, heavy gear & lots of head scratchin! A couple of workshop tips, if I may, from a retired dozer / heavy vehicle engineer (you might already know them). The single best bearing drift I've ever used - still using one now - a length of 1/2" key steel. I never found anything that worked better. Eucalyptus oil works well on seized parts, especially on Morse Tapers. The latest inclusion in my workshop is cheap shop tyre shine. Brilliant stuff for most tight fitting rubbers & plastics I've encountered, when you need to fit or remove them without damage. Keep up the great work, lads. Next time I'm up that way I'll be popping in to see what you're up to.
How close is the running gear of the and the Carden-LLoyd-derived, "Universal Carrier" from Britain?
It's a great day workshop Wednesday is here...
That hull seems so tiny, I want one to run around in the back yard. :D
Have a look at the fiat tankette
Even smaller!!
I love tankettes
@@joey243win
Love the " extra " tank in the background.... LOL..... A dream garage/shop.....
Just finished watching every single video you have made and i am hooked , best part is you are in my state so one day i could make a trip up north to see the museum ......................... Thumbs Up
Awesome just awesome! Always working on something different. 👍
This is Panzer 1A(4 wheel on the side, the 1B has 5 wheel on the side), there is an accurate 1:16 kit from Takom
Thanks from America, good video experience of restoration and friendly commentary.
So basically a scratch built with original parts mixed in. That's cool
I stumbled across this channel. What a great find. I'm hooked.
These episodes are never long enough.
300k subs for you guys!!💥💪🙌
I am so pleased I 'stumbled' across this channel. I love The Tank Museum also for its history content. Sadly, they devote little time to their Workshop Diaries content, which is always fascinating. I love seeing the back stories of the vehicle restorations, especially the technical aspects.
So, very well done guys. You have an avid fan hers, and I lap it all up.
As a model maker of 30+ years, this would be a dream come true. Fairly certain continental on the rollers is correct. Rings a bell for some reason.
That's a big project, but I'm sure you'll all rise to the challenge and get it knocked out!
People underestimate the skill level needed to know how to take apart things that were assembled decades ago.
These lads are top of the class in getting things in bits without damaging them. Well except for nuts and bolts!
i don`t know why but "four...four..." made me leave a like
G'day Boys what a jigsaw puzzle but when it's all done what a fantastic new Tank to display and drive, cheers mates, keep safe, cheers, Neil 🤠.
I am confident you will get a II someday.
Until.then having a I,III,IV,V and VI is brilliant.
Amazing work.
I think I could do with a couple of Workshop updates each week 😮. Just saying
i love seeing old serial numbers and markings on these parts
I have been a Raiders fan since inception. You are the man!
She's going to be a beauty! Great history, there. Thanks
Best Armour Museum content in youtube , so many details on the construction of these machines, like I've never heard before that the roadwheels were made of cast aluminium. It really tells apart from other channels that just repeat the same vehicle stats we all heard a million times before. Great work!!
Amazing to see this engineering surviving for so long - Looking forwards to seeing this beauty running.
Amazing jobs the guys are doing on these smashed armoured vehicles remains. Watched some of their work already, sometimes hard to believe what they’re doing. Keep on!
Love Daz' accent:.."WE'll cut these bolts off with the Oxy, ....and take the sprocket apaht!"
You’ve certainly got a lot of skill in that workshop. It’s a joy to watch!
24:00 i have pressed that kind of steel thickness into a dish for my brother's farm machines in the past. It's not that difficult. A 90 ton hydraulic hollow ram would do short work of that kind of steel. You just need to manufacture the parts where the metal doesn't need to bend. When i talked with a fellow that worked in the industry for advice, he called them the "pinch points" (might be lost in translation). In simple terms, you need to have the surfaces that become the flat flanges where you bolt things pinched by two pieces of tightly bolted material that become both form and holder for the part. Once you have those, you can push them out as fast as your hands can work them. In my specific case, i only needed the outer segment to be a controlled surface, the inner one could have any shape, as it was to be welded, but it works out really easy. Truncated cones like that don't offer much drama at all.
So looking forward to this series, I love early war tanks.
Wouw this is nice, there are not much running panzer 1's!
I thought only one in Germany, again, a verry nice job guys!
It's great that you show it.
Earliest German tank in the collection! Would be incredible to see it as a runner.
Thanks as always, I am so excited about this new project. My partner and I are discussing our trip to Cairns in 2024. She is leaving at the gate each morning with a cut lunch and will collect me at the end of the day. Thank you again for another brilliant episdode, Cheers.
19:15 I’ve had brand new bearings rattle more than that when I’ve cleaned the grease out of them before use.
I am looking forward to this project, I have always had a soft spot for the pz mk 1
Very nice , heavy duty spanner 🛠️ you improvised , worked very well ! Will be very interesting to follow this build ! 😎
Kolejny bardzo ciekawy projekt, wspaniali fachowcy, mam nadzieję że czołg odrestaurujecie z naszym udziałem jako widzowie,pozdrawiam.
this was a really nice suprise this morning.
This is going to be a great series , the quality here is outstanding
🎖️🏆⭐🤗🙏🇺🇲
Thank you for sharing
25 seconds in and I'm stoked :)
It's amazing how much rubber and grease is used, given Germany;s severe shortages of both.. --Bob Bailey in Maine, USA
That drive hub part could be hydroformed over a mandrel, and there'd be a nice explosion to boot.
Wonderful video, as always. You're a special group of folks. Visiting Aus Armour is on my bucket list. That and Mt. Rushmore.
Love the music! Couldn’t be better chosen!
A new project? Just great. Thanks.
I remember Bruce Crompton saying he'd been tracking down Pz1 parts for a resto for 10 years.......
Great new/old project! Looking forward to seeing it progress towards being a runner. Well done! Great content as always!
That dished centre of the sprocket looks ideal for easy casting. My brother did some work on heat-treating cast iron and found that it gave a lot more strength to an iron casting. It is definitely worth looking into as casting is so easy.
Panzer 1 is one of my favorite light tanks
Wow! Panzer 1?? This is going to be a great series!
Hopefully it will be up and running for when I come back in 25 so I can have a ride n it 👍👍
I reckon reaching out to the model companies, would be worth a shot. They would have lots of information. When they take measurements etc for their kits
Nice... This is going to be a good series.👍 I love early war tanks.
Kurt, you have the best job watching these guys rebuilding these tanks, everyday is a school day.
He’s learning this stuff a bit himself
Sound like an interesting project to look back at how one of the first "modern"/post WW1 tanks were constructed.
This is going to be awesome to watch.
One of my favorite things is seeing what new piece of history you fellas are about to restore. Thank you for your dedication and hard work in bringing these beauties back from the heap!
I love when you start a new project almost from scratch 👍
I love watching your videos, but I am especially excited about this project!!! The Panzer I and all the variations the Germans made using it's chassis has always been one of my favorite tanks -- A training tank that got pressed into full service because the Germans couldn't stand to stick to their own build up timeline and Invaded Poland before all their service tanks were finished.
What an awesome project 😅
