Looks flimsy but then again iron usually is.
Just started new one out at Wild horse pass

Impressive indeed.

Are there still a lot of Mohawks in the high steel trade, Philbie?

Not in this part of the world. Back east in your neck of the woods, yeah. Mostly Navajos as far as the Natives go here.

Jim, I was worried about it not staying rigid also but we added just a few pieces of bracing (8) and the bottom cord bracing and it fit like a glove.

And believe it or not, the GC STILL doesn't have a fully operational man lift. That shit wouldn't fly in Vegas, Cali, or back east.

Their evacuation plan if someone gets hurt? Call the Fire Department. We walked our crane out today so it's up to them now.

Yup, the the bitch GC tries to exploit it. It's gotten to the point where I called our head safety guy to put some heat on them. He's created some waves. Like I told my boss, I may need a bigger pot to stir.

[quote=Philbie;3824228]We've still got iron to set but nothing "Officially" higher than that bent. It was just a show for the tribe and the GC. We've actually got some picks coming up that are way more impressive IMO if the wind settles.

I'd rather take an ass kicking than try and work cranes in the winds we've been getting out by firebird the last few days
