Great to watch, thanks for the pointer!
Notice all the ear and eye protection? They didn't even wear gloves! I'll bet thousands and thousands of tubes were made and I'll bet these men didn't complain about the hard work but rather took pride in their quality of work.
In my post high school years, I working in a large forge shop (Pittsburgh Forge) and can't imagine myself working with hot, rough metal without, at the very least, gloves. A good pair of gloves would last me, on average, two days. I can't imagine how those men worked like that without gloves to protect themselves from cuts, blisters and mostly burns?
