1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

They made me do multiple tests though - one on galvanized thin steel (MIG) and another on small steel pipe (TIG)

I remember the text and email follow ups and I ultimately declined cause it's like 30mins each way which ain't too bad, but they run 24/7 and being a new hire would've put me on the night shift so I was like fuuuuuuuuck that

I was only gonna work as a welder for experience lol nothing more

 

That particular one in the photo was a ammonia condenser. Thats why it was all welded pipe. Ammonia eat copper and brass so everything has to be steel.

 

Makes sense why they needed welders for welding together steel pipe

When I first mentioned the galvanized, they said they'd cover costs for a PAPR

I still want one

 

They do alot of stainless too. I get some big towers is all stainless like this one

 

The facility is HUGE, and it's full blown manufacturing all done in-house so yeah stainless was part of the weld test too.

All thin material too except the steel pipe.

The way it's run is like full blown corporate though - I remember filling out and signing this whole checklist just when I got there, along with putting on a hard hat just walking through the door leaving the front entrance/office. If I recall, earpro was also required.

 

Yeah i wouldn’t doubt it. They been around along time and are atleast nation wide if not world wide. And probably 8/10 towers i see are a BAC.

 

Why is Zane banned?

Oh... politics meh

Fucking meat bees I imagine this is what Ryan meant when he mentioned them last time

 

They are the worst!

 

Yeah I could use that after putting this together for River this morning, all hunched over now like Quasimodo

 

All that work and he’s afraid of getting in it lol

 

Fuck I know that feeling

Go grab a pull up bar or something and hang from it; stretching that back helps a shit ton

 

Have you guys thought about an inversion table. They do help.

 

Table or those platforms you lay on?

I had one, new in box, and never used it so I gave it away.

VA paid like $800+ for it.

 

Man, meeting my niece for the first time ever

Gonna be interesting to see if she looks more like my brother or his fiancé

 

Take her for a rip in one of them quick vettes around the block

 

She's like 3 months old

We're heading out to my cousin's baby shower hence why I'll be able to see some family I haven't seen in a minute

Me being the oldest, my brother never really settled down until recently - I've got no other nephews or nieces

 

Thats because he knows it doesn’t have tons and 40s
