After a final check on the levels and a scrape about and a bash down with rolly... The answer to the question about getting the pipe under the road,.....Dwayne was right about the first item..... Then these three were pulled through in order of size.... 1.....A small emergency oxygen tank from an aeroplane 2.....An old accumulator from the smoothride system of an early Scorpion 3....An old cast iron 28 pound weight,...the weight went thru first but was exactly the same size as the 6"pipe so I cut a scrap Bauer 6" coupling up and the collar fit perfectly over the weight.....,took a bit more pulling through with this on..... Having two weeks off now,....down Cornwall. I have a secret spy to keep an eye on things if this huge erection starts while I am away....... :of :of .. : Will post more when things start to happen...... ;) -
After 25 years of loyal service old "Wesley",...(our pressure washer/steam cleaner[the steamer packed up years ago]) finally got retired.. It was so bloody heavy that you either wheeled it around or moved it on the pallet forks.No one in their right mind would want to nick it. Its replacement however, needed a tad more security,..... Made use of an old 300 gallon tank,..and an hour with the disc cutter and welder. Took just as long to anchor it to the floor as it did to make it.....
