I think toward the end is the best...when they're peening the pin in the giant shackle. Have your timing down or crack your coworkers head... :-)

absolutely brilliant - the timing of all those hammers - started to look like ants or something. cant imagine the work of a lifetime of making anchors....! fantastic footage thanks for putting it in!:)

And the workmanship. At the end they seem to be using hand hammers to clean up the appearance of the head of the pin.
