RRP said:Thanks Scottie! BTW I started to defend your honor today by addressing the use of "pigs" in pipelines. I think some here assume you were hired to butcher those "pigs"...oh never mind! I'm glad you are back employed!

For the record, I just realized that this was a Ozark Oak thread. Sorry for hijacking.

Good lump manufacturer: Makes charcoal from wood.
Bad lump manufacturer: Makes charcoal from wood (and depleted uranium oxide pellets, infectious hospital waste, and especially, ordinary rocks).

Ron, here is a Cat just about to flip over. Wish I could have got a better pic but I was worried about getting to close in case it flipped over forward. Tap the pic to enlarge it and you will get a good idea how forward it is leaning.

@SGH ... Pipeline operators are fearless ... crazy, but fearless. I've seen sideboom pipelayers standing on their back sprockets while the operator is calmly talking to the laborers. An excavator is an inherently stable machine ... on level ground like that, it would have had to be tipped at a much larger angle before it was in danger of going over center. Plus, you simply have to catch it with the boom/stick and push it back over center ... might rattle the operators teeth when it comes back down, but it won't flip.

I agree about the machine. What I was worried about is if it flipped the stalk coming out of the roller box. That stalk is 1 mile long and under tension. If it pops out of the roller box it will wipe out whatever is around it. I have saw stalks that jumped out of the roller box take out F-350 trucks before. It's the stalk that worries me.Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

Ron's been into the hookers lately. Keeps checking the yellville thing, expert on the offerings in Peoria, strikes up conversations with the police chief...about hookers. Lots of hobbies.

Here is something that may be of interest to you if you are a Yeti or rotomolded cooler fan. We coat our welds with the same thing that rotomolded coolers are made of. Here is a bare joint and one coated with IMPP (injection molded polypropylene). I have actually been considering making a red or green Yeti when time allows.
Before IMPP.
After IMPP:

Just curious, Scottie...why are those guys wearing those "suits"? Protection from WHAT? Are those silver strips reflective at night? Looks like they have common work boots on.Re-gasketing America one yard at a time.

And yes, those are highly reflective stripes. Due to the long hours that we work each day, it's dark when we start and sometimes it's after dark when we finish. As such, reflective clothing is required.Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.
