I stumbled across this show accidentally as I was flicking channels on the DSTB. It's on the ABC 2 channel at around 6.40pm
Great show. Highly recommended. How can a show like this go by totally un-noticed for the last 8 years!
Every episode two teams each have 10 hours to buid a machine that accomplishes some predetermined task.
Episodes so far have been....
-building an amphibious vehicle
-building a tractor pulling machine
-building an excavator
-building a tug-boat
Great to see that shows such as this continue on in the tradition of "The secret life of machines" , mythbusters, etc...
Which made me wonder if there are any "real" scrap heaps in Melbourne where one could find a range of mechanical bits and pieces. I'm guessing not, as a lot of stuff is recycled and melted down rather quickly?
