Denise’s handiwork attaching and securing all the hydraulic lines in the equipment room. That is a bit of an art in itself.
I dubbed this contraption the “octopus “. 😄😄
These are LED light bar driver modules to run all of the large LED light bars that are out in the tunnel.
Denise tidying up the octopus and letting us know that we are number one! Or is that number two because there’s two finger fingers?
You can see me in the background in my five dollar Walmart Hawaiian shirt.😄😄
The octopus once it was all tamed.
Finally, Friday morning at about 1030 things were put together enough to start bringing systems online and testing. And, as always, there ends up being 100 little details that need attended to. Airlines that somehow got crossed up, regulators that don’t work, Motors that run backwards, logic that doesn’t work and needs reprogrammed. … restart day is always a mad frenzy to try and fix problems on the fly and get things up and going. Then you start running cars through and finding more issues with timing or chemical applicators or similar things. This restart was no different and we would be on site testing and tuning until well after dark. We finally left Bullhead and headed for home at close to 7 PM exhausted.
Oh yeah – a couple of more things to show you! First, here is the MCC with the new VFD drives installed and tidied up as much as possible. It turned out pretty good for what I had to work with.
I told you this job ran on caffeine. I was no exception to that rule!😄😄😬
This job also ran on the homemade sourdough cookies from our neighbor at Canyon Creek Farm stand! 😋
Those pants are on day three in this picture and at that point they were, shall we say, well seasoned?😄😄😬
