Some hobbyists restore cars, some restore airplanes. But for the past 30 years, Fred Bieser has been obsessed with restoring the gun turrets that were mounted onto World War II bombers. We visit his workshop in Georgia to learn about how he converts crumpled balls of rusted metal into beautiful working mechanical turrets that you can actually operate.
