I always enjoy seeing Steve doing repairs, so a mix of running repairs and restoration would be a good thing in my opinion 👍

[nickraschke]

Steve is a fantastic presenter, yes. Got a great presence.

It was a pleasure to watch Doc Steve perform surgery on the T55. Great job. I have also added, "fiddle farting around, " to my list of phrases to use when dealing with my kids.

Stevo and Silvio killed it. Great job.

[plkangus]

Nice shout out to Mr. Hewes. Great video!

[hubble]

I think having Steve on your show is a real benefit as it explains the drive mechanisms of the tanks in your collection and what it takes to keep the runners working for your shows! Good stuff!

[gerardhogan]

Welcome Silvio. I hope you enjoy your stay. Steve has done a great job. Nice and neat and good clean work.

For a tank repair genius Steve did a great job filming

[kenkersaitis]

Great show, yes I would like to see more of the maintenance.

Well done, waiting for the engine-drivetrain restoration vid...

[markedwards]

I love the intro apologising because of the unplanned video. As it turns out it was one if the best. Trouble shooting soviet armour without a Haines Manual takes real skill and you boys have it in spades. On the plus side you now do working holidays at Aus Armour, nice Keep up the good work, cant wait until next week

You could have Mechanic’s Monday 😂, I would watch it

[mzimmerman]

I like the addition of filming some stationary shots where the camera is positioned to show the work being done.

Another great video! Steve and Silvio also are doing a wonderful job. I definitely would like to see more of that.

Nice video and very enjoyable!! Steve solves some serious problems and I enjoy watching his work and learning some techniques!! Silvio is going to be a good help as he learns the ropes from Steve. I think these maintenance and repair videos are a strong addition to the restoration work being done!! That T-55 is a brute to work on I think - the cam cover fitting under the turret looks like a lot of good luck on the Russian's part - too close to call 😂

Steve's cool. Enjoying his servicing video's. Learning alot about Soviet equipment. Keep more of these video's coming. Thanks

Great job Steve and Silvio . Steve you explain the problems and fixes with the T55 Really well top notch mate .

[schwabrichard]

Great job Steve! You and Silvio attacked the monster and won. Soviet tank design was make it simple and build a lot. They expected any major repairs to be done in a depot. You are doing repairs never dreamed of by the designers!That 70+ year old tank was designed with a battle life of days and weeks in mind. Not an old age retirement in a world class museum!

[Szlejer]

Excellent camerawork by Steve! Thanks!

I am a member of the ONTAR museum in Oshawa Ontario. And I leave all the Russian equipment work to those with a higher patience level. American made for this Mechanic. Good job you guys. Russian tech starts every time love the noise and smoke you always know they are running no need for smoke grenades. LOL
