Ironworking: From Rivet Gangs to Rebar Crews
Ironworking isn't one job — it's a family of trades stretching back to 1896, before the skyscraper boom made it famous. This episode traces the arc from shipyards and bridges to rivet gangs throwing glowing steel forty feet through the air, and the Mohawk crews from Kahnawake and Akwesasne who became synonymous with high-steel work. Then it asks the blunt question: how many people still do this, where do they work, and why do Israel's tower cranes show so few vests up on the steel? The answer isn't automation — it's a different way of building. Episode 5344 — myweirdprompts.com/n/5344…
