Our Trip To Sydney! | Manufacturing Week & National Maritime Museum

We’re taking a quick trip to Sydney for the Australian Manufacturing Week expo and we also check out the Sydney harbour bridge, opera house and tour the National Maritime Museum! The Australian Manufacturing week is once a year and is a great opportunity to see the latest innovations in tooling and machinery for metal work and manufacturing. We had some spare time so decided to do a bit of sight seeing and walked to see the Sydney harbour bridge and opera house at night. The next day we decided to visit the National Maritime Museum which has a lot of historical displays and galleries. We got to go on board and explore the HMAS Vampire gun ship, HMAS Onslow submarine and the replica of Captain Cook’s HMB Endeavour ship. We hope you enjoy this travel vlog of our trip to Sydney!

Well, well, well. Becoming influencers, ain't we...
Karen is great at doing voice over. She could definitely comment on some of your videos.

One of my favorites so far I love how Karen narrates more please

[dimov]

It is so nice to see Kurtis in different light, besides workshop life.

[coorskid]

Thank you Karen for sharing your trip with us, it felt like I was there seeing all the awesomeness of the Maritime Museum and the Ships! Kurtis was a little fast walking ahead but Karen did an awesome job of filming and voice over work, maybe we might hear her in an animated film in the future or even a documentary of the Australian outback and animals? hehehe Great video and again thank you for sharing ya'lls trip.

Karen, you might not know it, but you just made the best Video for this trade show on your own, your voicover voice is calm, clear, and as a bonus, it's not the first time you use those technical terms.
I also enjoyed the touristy part of the video, nice filming and nice information.
You could absolutely make more voiceovers professionally, especially in this field, but in general too, but someone needs to film Kurtis, edit out his blunders, and most importantly play with homeless, so you might not have time for that

Thanks for taking us along and thanks to Karen for her narration

[robsmith]

No robot will EVER replace Homeless
I hope you managed to find some good digs for him while you were away in the big city.

Kurtis can make most of those new machines in his shop. The food looks so good. Your camera skills are wonderful.

[uriahotten]

Never would have guessed Kurtis would be rocking a pair of Etnies when not in the shop! Appreciate you all taking us along with you on your trip. 😎

The Sydney Harbor Bridge that Paul Hogan painted while doing his comedy show in the mid -'80's .My great grand father built a steam engine in the late 1800's in New Haven, Conn . It still operates today at a museum there .Loved the tour, the harbor, the show, I noticed a cockatoo while on the 'ships' tour, you could hear 'em in the background too . Thanks again .

I have visited Hobart, Sydney and Perth while in the US Navy. All were amazing and friendly places to see. I thoroughly enjoyed my times there.

It was great seeing you both in Sydney. Happy to see you both take some time out of your busy schedule to relax and take a breather. Karen, excellent voice over and narration. You need to do more of this, we could listen to you all day. Fun facts, the Haas machines shown at 4:39 and 8:34 are our machines going to Melbourne Polytechnic. We are also getting one of those robot arms and VF2 VMC 8:40 that young Travis from Haas was demonstrating. Funny to note that he was one of my high school engineering students back in 2012 LOL. Shame I didn't see you guys at the Sutton wine mixer on Wednesday night. Don't worry, I suffered the next day with a hangover for that 😂 Look forward to seeing you both in Melbourne next year. Cheers, Aaron.

That was a fun surprise! I loved the tour through the museum. Naval history is so fascinating. I'm from the US but have sailed a tall ship out of Fremantle so it's really cool to see other big sailing ships that still go out!

[rhipp]

Karen a great voice over during this trip and thank you both for taking us along, Sidney is indeed a very pretty city.

[jackreed]

Thank you for an interesting trip.
Sad to see that Karen is still so camera shy and I think I only heard one giggle.
Great voice overs explaining what we were looking at.
And, no out takes required!

Wow, this brought memories BIG time! I was a student when I visited Australia back in 2008... Trip from Estonia to Cairns was 46 hours and 5 different flights. Then drove a camper van with my sister all the way down through Brisbane and ultimately to Sydney. Loved it!!! Thanks for sharing!

[johncarroll]

Kurtis! Love the bit where you nearly forgot to hold the door open, and nearly jumped back to hold it. The respect ye have for each other is so evident. Cheers for the bonus vid. Fantastic job,

Another great video ..I'm from Sydney and my father was a highly skilled welding supervisor if he was still alive he would have loved your channel. As a apprentice and young boilermaker tradesman he worked on a couple of Daring class destroyers during their manufacture, they where fully welded construction much of it by hand. Years later in the mid to late seventies he was chosen to be welding supervisor on the on-site fabrication needed to assemble the Sydney Tower. You showed it in the video it was cutting edge metallurgy for it's time . The steel was a special alloy that's oxide was weatherproof requiring no painting for its entire lifetime. Most of the fabrication was done off site but he was involved in fitting and welding the individual barrel sections on site . Alll welds where 100% xray checked and he received a bonus on the end of the job as welding flaws where much less than they expected using new techniques and equipment. He also did alot of water board tanks and oil refinery tanks fully welded the horizontal welds where done both sides simulataously using a automatic welding device and submerged arc technology. All the vertical welds where done by hand stick welding the welding machines where Lincoln bullets 400amp for stick 800 amp for the submerged arc auto machines. I'm a sparky and as a young guy worked on some of the big Lincoln welding machines old but proven reliable for on site jobs. Anyway thanks for the video good to see you and your lady out of the workshop and enjoying Sydney.

That was cool, thanks for bringing me and the rest of us along for the experience!!!
