Sketchy??

Whole thing is sketchy. "Precision" seems to be reliant on a scale and dividers with occasional use of a dial caliper... and using the caliper for indexing the cuts? Wonder how long said compressor runs. And that forge? Wow. :(

No wonder some of the aftermarket bits we get for LBC's ~almost~ fit and sometimes work.
 
do love the videos form that part of the world though - the ingenuity is amazing but the lateral thinking is pretty cool also.

For sure.

I've somewhere got a photo of a young Asian guy with a stick welder in one hand, holding a welder's mask to his head with the other, squatting down and in sandals, using one foot to hold a couple pieces of wrought-iron together close enough for welding into a fence gate... on the city sidewalk in front of a shop.
