That's an interesting video.My ears popped watching it(yes,I watched it till the end
)Not a guard in site and its like clockwork. Makes you wonder why we don't have industries like this anymore.

That factory would have been shut down in a heart beat by UK Factory Inspectors. So many dodgy issues to list, no wonder we can't compete with companies abroad!

Re: how disc rotors are made
We do still have the same companies like this, but with H&S and supply costs, they can't compete with China or indian. UK companies have so much red tape to get through. It is a shame, as we were the manufacturer that ran the world.burridge01 wrote: Wed Dec 10, 2025 4:27 pm That's an interesting video.My ears popped watching it(yes,I watched it till the end)Not a guard in site and its like clockwork.
