admin

not actualy sure what they are using this for, but its for kewit on the new portman bridge in the lowermainland bc.i didnt have much time to snap pics, but the weld closeup is one i did in the flat before the whole thing was assembled.oh and all the tacks in the first pic were to clean up someone elses horizontal that had to be ground down for a plate to sit flush on.

Reply:If I had to guess safety people would raise and eyebrow at:The blue tarps. - probably should be fire rated blankets insteadThe welding shield- holes/tears defeats the intended purposeThe boxes/lights on your oxy bottles- might want to see the bottle in a container or something... without a potential ignition source laying against the bottle.I rehab stuff, make stuff faster, and make stuff that never was.'99 VW Jetta TDI'73 Sears ST/12, '66 Sears Custom 6, Bar Stool Gokart
