Fascinating to see (as far one can tell) the quality of the resulting tank from such crude looking equipment.
I guess many have seen it but if not, here's the equally skilful guy at Royal Enfield painting the tank lining on.

From what I could glean from the internet, it appears these tanks are being made for a Sohrab 70cc motorcycle mass produced in Pakistan..hence the high volume production.
