In the photo above, about 30 of us were on the roof and some, (myself) were further up on a huge window wash track, big ole t-storm rolled in out of nowhere, you can't imagine the fire drill that ensued, lightning hitting all around, 30 guys trying to scramble down 1 ladder one at a time with a 25 story drop behind it, to get to a common floor, darned engineer on the elevator inside was goofing off, I went down a stairwell that was unmarked, got to the ground floor, doors locked up tight, stairs and floors are supposed to be marked, I raised hell with the GC, I mean real hard too, they did not appreciate it, boy was I ticked off, not long after the WTC which I saw first hand, now I'm trying to get out of a building with a bunch of other guys and had to go back up 10 stories to find another way out, I shoulda had D.O.B. nail em for this, all it took was that storm, a good soaking and 20 stories of stairs, a man does have a breaking point, they saw mine briefly that day, none had anything to say when I was done, having been on that galvanized steel window wash track with lightning is enough to motivate anyone to give an academy award winning performance, I sure did that day ! LOL ! ps I knew these folks from other jobs we did, they were a little shocked when I lit a fire under their behinds about this clear safety violation.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
