Today at work I.....

[Tim.243]

Interesting thread and for some reason one i've just delved into.

My effort,finished this slap today to a school refurb increasing the opening size from roughly a metre to just shy of 7m.Steel was just over a half ton and everything straight forward although the propping system is a far amount of work for the time it's up.View attachment 448479

lovely, just wish back in the day when I helped dad we had taken pictures of stuff he did...just memory's but good one.

Aye,some jobs deserve more than just being a memory up top and only started taking the odd pic post covid.

Get asked by folk looking for work done for a portfolio now and again but it's not someone i've ever done.Lucky to subby to the same 2 firms for near 16 years but might come a time when i regret not keeping one.
Most stuff is granite work which i love although winter is becoming a chore these days but really enjoy the job.

x2 swivel draw bars came in oversize, back order only .060" to come off, light cuts so I had no problem holding them on the thread, nuts ran down just fine afterwards.
Made a supporting clamp so the live centre could do it's job

You say winter is becoming a chore these days, but keep at it and don’t forget…there’s loads of people on benefits that are relying on you working and paying your taxes so they can stay home….

Nice design with the profile cut plates @Smellydog

Today I did some concepts for using rock bags to protect subsea gas export pipelines from damage by fishing trawlers.

Now for fun I'm going to turn and mill an aluminium Sako 85 recoil lug/pillar.

We should stop bottom trawling. Then you can mill stalking kit everyday!
