#3 Note that the video states "1960".
I hate to tell you guys, but a lot of the operations shown are common practice in shops in the US right now.
In the tapping shot, there's a radial drill in the background. They probably used it to start the tap and make sure it was straight. The reason you don't use it to run the tap is, if you run into problems (chipped tooth, chip pack, etc) you really don't want to have 10hp driving that tap. (taps break)

In the shot where he bangs on the box with the crane (a double gantry power crane, BTW), there's a maybe 20 ton hydraulic press in the back off to the left.
None of it's anything I haven't seen in repair shops here.
