Crazy thing is-this pump would still run for a few seconds even full of water in the motor!
Some of you may have seen where @monkeyswrench was working on our Freightshaker crane awhile back-here’s some random pictures of some of the work I was doing on it at the same time.
Mag base drill to punch out a seized pin. It’s crazy how many chips this made!
Here’s the pin once we got it out.
It was in beyond poor shape!😬😬
Replacement pin I built with an upgraded retaining tab.
Some shiny new hoses I made for the crane before showing Kevin how to make them and turning that operation over to him.
A destroyed piston retaining nut from the main boom hydraulic ram that gave us no end of trouble. Plus a major delay, because neither myself nor anyone around stocks a grade 8 inch and a half -12 pitch thin nut. 🙄
Needed some hi-viz shirts for an upcoming job and found some that I think look pretty nice, considering.
Delivered about 6 thousand pounds of steel pipe, conduit and strut to said job for inspection to verify it’s made in USA prior to commencing construction.
Some equipment layout design work I’ve been doing for that job.
And that brings us almost up to date!
