Pakistani machine shop videos... thoughts?

I'm not sure this was a safe repair and it doesn't look very straight, but the concept i thought was pretty clever.

As previously mentioned, in those places it's not about absolute accuracy, it's about getting whatever it is running again by whatever means possible. If it breaks again in a month or two, it gets repaired again.

We often forget in NA that much of the rest of the world doesn't always have the privilege/luxury of living at our standards. I'm grateful every day I was born where i was born....

Did you see one of the bushing mounts had been rewelded also?
It appears this part goes to a vehicle that may be overloaded or just fatigued beyond it's usable life.
I wouldn't want to go very fast in this vehicle as the part could cause catastrophic failure ending in loss of life or limb.
I must give the lathe operator 10 points for the creative way he was able to mount the part to the four jaw.
