Bet this guy could weld with his eyes closed.

yes! this is beautiful. oxyacetylene welding is very very hot, and slow. much respect for to the subject, that must have taken forever!

Cool i like this cool...did i say cool?

Great picture.

Excellent shot, Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums=)))

It proves that the yards were very much up to date with equipment and skills at the time. A unique picture this and one I've not seen before. It reminds me of the photo series of Doxford Engines before closure. If you'd like I could link directly to here??

Hi Paul, yes please do feel free to include a link to the Doxford Engines photos. Glad you like the image, there are some more great Readhead's shots to come.

Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums Good stuff! OK now I do not own these images nor claim the rights to them. They were linked onto a ships enthusiasts website and took the world by storm when folk saw them. They show British engineering at its best. They're also taken before health and safety became a thing! Enjoy :) www.shipsnostalgia.com/guides/William_Doxford_and_Sons

Warship

best shot

Anyone know the name of the vessel?

A huge flight of my imagination or another coincidence?: Tom Roberts "Coming South" 1886 www.ngv.vic.gov.au/exilesandemigrants/ed_journey_04.html Including the 'tilt' !

heritage!!
