This week, we're following Steve as he removes the engine from our Flakpanzer Gepard!
But if you were hoping to see him finishing off the StuG III G Differential, fear not! Stay tuned for a video of him finishing that one off THIS FRIDAY.
Hope you're all having a terrific week 😊

Hi All!
Apologies for the shorter episode this week.
At the moment, Daryl and Jesse are on leave and Beau and Glen are working on things that, while extremely important, are a bit tedious to film.
Luckily Steve has caught some footage from a little while back to keep that weekly tank restoration fix coming your way!
We should have a Workshop Wednesday more in line with what you're used to next week.
Thanks for the patience and we hope you enjoy!

Today is Remembrance Day here in Australia. In commemoration of the sacrifice our brave soldiers made during World War I, this week's Workshop Wednesday will be a supercut of Al's extraordinary restoration of the FK96 "Hamel Gun".
Lest we Forget 🕊️

Hi everyone!
Right when I was finishing my voice over and sound mix for the video, the power went out! 🔌❌
I stuck around for a few hours until it got dark but still no luck. 🙄
I'm so sorry but this week's episode is delayed until tomorrow. 🥺
Thanks for understanding 🙏

🚨⚠PANZER I UPDATE⚠🚨
At long last we have the suspension and wheels fitted!🔥😮
Getting these leaf springs re-created was a real challenge but luckily we found a blacksmith and springworks in the region that was up to the task and they did a fantastic job! 🔥🛠
Be sure to catch the process of fitting it all together next week on WORKSHOP WEDNESDAYYYY 😁

Hi Everyone!
It's been a while since we've had a StuG III G update but we have some very exciting content planned 😊
Beau has been continuing his incredible work on the project and has just test fit a few things. After all these years of work, it's just wonderful to start seeing it all come together like this. Don't worry though - It all has to come back out again and there's still lots of really interesting things to make and fit.
We have some very special guests coming from abroad to give us a hand with stripping down and cleaning up the transmission. So be sure to stay tuned and have a fantastic weekend!

The Australian Armour and Artillery Museum opened to the public on Saturday the 6th September 2014.
The museum is privately owned and is the largest museum of its kind in the southern hemisphere.
We are located next door to Tjapukai and Skyrail on Skyrail Drive, Smithfield, a suburb of Cairns, North Queensland.
We are dedicated to the collection, preservation, restoration and display of Armoured Vehicles and Artillery from the 1800’s to the present day. Our collection includes armoured vehicles and artillery from both world wars with a particular focus on WWII.
Currently our collection consists of over 200 armoured vehicles and artillery pieces, many of which will not be found anywhere else in Australia. We are constantly on the lookout for additional pieces of equipment that will make our museum a richer experience for those visiting.
