A neat video

[UGLY OLDS]

How many guys besides me remember watching this in High School or as an apprentice   :?:

Some things NEVER change ....

Visually illustrated fundamentals, I can dig it. I do not remember the vid but did enjoy watching it today. Cartoons never fail!

I still use that video in my welding classes ! There is no better  way to concentrate a kids attention on a particular event  than using illustrations to exaggerate the effect . I played that video last Friday . Mr. Shrink , not a name any man would want to be known by .

You notice who produced that film?

 I think it was Walt Disney.... Didn't they produce a lot of instructional films early on   :?:  :?:

It was. When I heard the sound effects, I went back to look.

I will be playing that video again in class in about 2 weeks time. What year was it produced ?

 The copyright date is too fuzzy for my old peepers . ( Prolly flashed one too many times .. )

One of the responses on the original U-Tube copy shows :

"" the release date for this video was 12 april
1945 ""

Given the music & the repeated reminder that "ARC welding is the procedure of the future ", I would suspect that this is correct ...

 Many of today's automotive "Techs" don't realize that learning to weld was a part of reaching "Journeyman" mechanic status back in the day ....  
I'm sure that Frank can agree with this ...

 Oops ..My age is showing ...  :oops:

You mean when you were expected to "fix" things, rather than just change parts?

I  need to watch it carefully and some of the videos on the right side of the page. I thought I could stick things together but trying the other day my ability has diminished. Lack of coordination, poor hearing and no depth perception because I only see with one eye seems to keep me from making a bead. GPster

 Stick with it Joe ... That's the way that I weld NORMALLY  :!:  

The one eye thing has been there since I was a kid .. The tinnitus in the ears makes it hard to hear the "Bacon Sizzle" while laying a bead ...What is REALLY starting to concern me is the loss of feeling in my fingers.. :?  Hard to play "nuts & bolts, pick anything up,do the normal stuff your fingers are responsible for .... :oops:

I just hope that my fingers are not going the same way my legs & feet are ....  ( Nurapathy )..  

That's at the top of the list for this months Doctor visit .. Him & me gotta talk...
