2:32 pm
cathedral the third largest church in russia finally reopened in two thousand and knowing after eleven years of rebuilding with a brand new six ton bell calling the city to worship and that was a pretty good advertisement for one local company. and oh really the. reason to go to the good see what you make here yeah yeah so we have our own as well. and so let's go i will show you that system. and belief there will certainly made a name for itself i will foundry was found in one thousand nine hundred ninety one my father you see this family room a business. and they our web biggest but really nothing russian and so in the world we produce every about four hundred two hundred tons but this global domination has come on the back of entirely traditional bell making techniques.
2:33 pm
now this is our watches so. this all step of making bells i hear will make a difference. i can see this creep and them pull them off on the fourth but this is no value. if i feel we make promises we only your own plans. when it seems again i am sad that's me gaps and real reality value yeah. i need some heavy g.t. safety gear because that furnace has been a little one thousand so serious one of the two thousand five. there's some recycling mixed info in. the current here of old soviet copper copecks and there
2:34 pm
are cells made to make a little kids abusive to the filmmaking process. this is the most spectacular and certainly the most dangerous part of the whole process this regular crucible is filled with most and groans as you can see. it's still going to hear. them in their case it's done well but. once it's funny and position the finer the liquid is ready to fly. you can see the soup of copper and skin all this most in bronze being poured into this huge cost it is going to take around about a week to cool down before the whole thing can be taken outside and the next stage of the process begins.
2:35 pm
but most of the work is really get to shake things up because. we've been based. this particular scene i think they. keep the peace. process is still full from over a newborn bell needs to be washed to remove any traces of clay and is then sand blasted and polished to give it a match surface. finish the other finished products ready to begin their journeys to churches and temples across the globe including one six hundred fifty kilos monster. case right there can leave russia's biggest foundry that seeing what its biggest bell sounds right here again.
2:36 pm
leave your is ringing true. were after all the fire and brimstone it seemed like a good time to clear my head so i ventured down to the riverside to meet another group of local craftsman girlishness historically famous as the ship building city in fact it's where emperor peter the first built the country's very first navy now those days may be long gone but burnish his love of pope's is still alive and well . even if these drone to ship builders are working on a slightly smaller scale. eagle has run the city's model post club for more than fifteen years teaching the next generation to take to the waterways from submarines to walsh it has a huge number of models for the children to work on and with the championship winning replica proudly on display plenty to aspire to as well. this model
2:37 pm
is taken part in a national championship is won the cup that you can see over there this model of a cannon boat has taken part in two world championships and the european competition. comes luckily for me i don't mind the big kids having a go to. coming. up says blessed since. the books are all remote controls and after a quick lesson from eagle we were out on the open water full steam ahead. for i guess it's not exactly sailing before but they also allow for is negotiating the risk now with christmas jumper deficiency. because it's never good to get too complacent about these things i was about to find out. trauma here was the also low
2:38 pm
but as well its difficulties on the move may have something to rescue mission but thankfully even here in the middle of russia the u.s. navy is on hand to save the day go boys. get no say. through little ineffectual nudging it became clear that more drastic measures will require. so sometimes even the minds of america is not enough and. ok boys. stranded ship back to school but understandably eagle and co workers let me loose with any more of their precious books so i went off in search of some of the robust handy work and the owner's business will secure. live is
2:39 pm
a sculptor and caught himself and the project is too big or too strange to take home but. apart from the old fantasy forest creature flat has a workshop full of beautifully crafted pieces from a wild boar tablecloth to an eagle embossed copra. so one month to. his written. but of course each piece has to start somewhere. something like this excellent perfect play with power tools i love it. when i was going to give me a quick course in woodwork one a warm and that meant getting hold of the chisel. and play with it.
2:40 pm
i was wiggling away on glass mirror i couldn't help thinking back to the piece i'd seen out on the street if we might be able to do something similar. to rejoin haven't you want to figure sculpture. let's go show you your. plant told me to meet him out in the woods but when i arrived he was nowhere to be seen. by leaps and legs for seemed like hours my mind started playing tricks on me. why couldn't the i build beautiful never risen cutbacks why should other people be able to scull to not me it was unfair.
2:41 pm
and now somebody was going to pay. that. james. let me show you how to do it. it seems lot of narrowly avoided the road a shame so massacre. the an ashtray and so on festival was just about to begin. with some long run. there's nothing subtle about this form of sculpture and that suited me down to the grounds and once i sliced off a bit here and glanced off to work on freeing the statue from the tree trunk and it was long before something with a wintry feel to it against take should. sort of cool coffee at five and hopefully
2:42 pm
you can make out a beautiful family penguin portrait here. funny or lessons without know. with most of us. leaving glad to put the finishing touches to our on topic friends i headed back into the city to visit some more crossman working on a slightly larger scale. one company bigger is better but the longest employer in the city the territory is boss and the point they make just about fits. in that. this is the cross production association surface. and inside this triangle six brand new i am one forty eighth's of a line for space. there ukrainian jet plane that's been around since two thousand
2:43 pm
and seven each one is worth around twenty five million dollars and muscle is aiming to produce fifty of them by two thousand and thirteen. bucks to france they're going to have to considerably speed up production and that's where these cars come and. each of these programs are helping to develop a new made money fracturing system more than fifteen thousand different items need to go into the system the most information goes straight to the production plant. each employee looks off to one station but the new multi-million dollar equipment means they have less to do than ever before. still idea about sexuality is changing this was a few years ago i'm out of a scene right that's would have taken around a hundred hours to make this beautiful piece of plane. but nowadays i've got these big also make the drills. and they can do them it's what.
2:44 pm
i never saw it i got to take a look at the finished school. this is what a brand new plane looks like the seats for business clothes and then sixty in a color me. i feel like i should be in the case in the exit saw him come here. but of course the really impressive stuff is in the cockpits right on his traces in the captain's chair here. feel very important the controls but hopefully look and feel a bit they said liked everything yeah great. the planes have only been in service since two thousand and nine but moving two hundred dollars worldwide people across a busy few years ahead of them. so that's what six weeks work for ten
2:45 pm
thousand people that's like. maybe coming to an airstrip the you. may already be flowing around russia but i wasn't ready to catch a lift back to moscow just yet there was plenty more i wanted to see in the road before i hope it's the. touches the so much to me is going to make a lot of. japan's agony in the world when a disaster hits a major economic and trading power the forces of globalization punish the. world. bringing you the latest in science and technology from around russia. we. covered. you know just quickly about his household the people i met artists and just
2:46 pm
realists and taking a look at both large and small businesses and there's a real energy that everyone seems to share so i was wondering how do people blow off steam here but it seems quite a few take a trip to their local schools for. whites just because i'm going to have a go at the game of parenting it requires playing speed listening flexes the nerves of steel. and it helps if you can catch bits of. left turn as normally play outside on a huge pitch but this version unfortunately for me is apparently a great deal for. my. point no serious. game is played in joules various me looked at first and if the russian game is way out this one is more dynamic and interesting than one played out dualistic washout because. it seemed like
2:47 pm
a cross between facebook crickets and. there were plenty of things i have to remember. the purpose of the game is to score as many points as possible as a supposed to get to the audience or the beyond it on and come back and do that only if they don't he. is not supposed to be on the sidelines. steam gets six shots. through seems simple enough now i just time to learn what makes a great lots of pinch hitter. in this position you hit it as you say on this ok this is very technical i think i may just go pretty good to. bust through points but i think i'm more about how. little blinding speed desists me a few years back. sidesteps know what it was. i wasn't exactly sure what the final score was but the ghost
2:48 pm
certainly seems happy. but. most of the globe victories are i decided it wouldn't hurt to get in a little more practice i'm trying to get to know my teammates a little better too. money was mixing up was good it was you i studied architecture and this is interesting it's very interesting i can take you on an excursion if you like yeah that would be great. bruce has an excellent reputation in russia as a university city and the next day i met up with max outside of the architectural faculty. and it sounds like studying here is no picnic. well james this is my university this is actually. the first year was the most difficult one with many subjects that we had to know we studied professional stuff everything related to
2:49 pm
construction. pretty intense stuff this is a six year course and students can choose whole swathe through three want to specialize in architecture or construction. process from around twenty people taking lessons and basics but also getting a chance to put their imagination into action. just think about this beauty james. because the city is yeah it's were all asian i'm buzzing builders have a chance to examine materials they might use and down in the department labs you can do just that. so if you're involved in construction it is vitally important to know how strong the material you know using oh so in the name of science we must sacrifice this block of concrete. and that. comes around a minute later the results were in. wait for. the
2:50 pm
love experiments so you go reading here of four hundred one killer newton so that means that all concrete can take forty tons worth of weight discovering russia does six schools out for the day i'm all much went for a lotsa rematch with a slightly unusual appointment to keep from cheating so vernice obviously seems to be him some very clever people but i've been of the it's me this one guy who says he's working on something really special gordon is why he wants me here in the middle of the night. you know. anybody. constantine.
2:51 pm
was the super no i think that's the kid stuff yeah we got the real magic to say you know i'll show you. and apparently it's all based around this mysterious black box in the middle of the room. that's enough. once it's reached its limits. and we're ready to go. press the. james. magic check this out. this comes from scenes police these are going to three g.'s holographic projection . these accusers of us racing just get excited. creating
2:52 pm
a missed them special fans and pipes directly upwards. into the water. but i wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be constantine's to get to the peaks . so you put together a mist make a. little bit of logic and this is what you get i think. it's going to. i was running. and there was one other place i still needed to check out but luckily for me doing things quickly is no problem for these guys. as one of those reassuringly
2:53 pm
unchanging thing is about russia but decades it's been chugging down the nation's roads doing nothing very spectacular but that's not particularly exciting so here in the road as a group of people who like to take their lot. in . takes a fair bit of tinkering that's where eagle comes. we are training for competition. here you can see our professional racing. but i think we'd better start with the. shall we go. in his friends the serious rally drivers and to be competitive need a complete overhaul. it will bring in the cars of a different class. it has a very good performance in terms of speed he should pull them over the books and the wheel can be removed in no time. but if the car has an all wheel drive and
2:54 pm
these thousand five hundred fifty horsepower. even if we take it to two european championships and the rover will miss is the steering column in case of an accident the wheel touches which helps keep the pilot saying. those reassuring safety features surely even a novice racer counselor. most though i have a dr who kind of course you can before that you will need to go through a break training exercise ok lesson thought. so this looks like your average lot of evil you fall in trotting around most good for instance the difference is that one will take you about eight seconds to get to know sixty i just want to do it in three point eight. probably do disappear if the system is a little silly. and once i was securely buckled him it was time for
2:55 pm
2:56 pm
sensible sunsets. to bowl technology issues. but then finally a long straights loomed ahead of me. ok so i did well never look at a low point the same way again. it would be. but no girl. that really got into. or got back to the last go. visit my lot again. it's difficult to feel inspired after spending some time in verona sure this is
