Good video of the diesel engine alignment and installation, including
a brief look at the fantastically large crank shaft.

Check out the propeller and propeller shaft. You can see the prop
shaft was turned between centers on what must be and absolutely
GIGANTIC ship yard lathe.

Worth the ten minute view time if this sort of thing remotely gets
your metal working juices flowing.

Have a link to the rest of them?



Never mind. I found it on Youtube
