Thanks

Ha ha cranes are gay. Yeah i can see what you’re saying. Not all operators are into cranes that for sure. I can’t run anything but a crane. Was a professional mechanic my entire career before getting pushed into the seat of a crane so that may explain why i like cranes. If you have experience with other equipment cranes may seem boring. There is an ego aspect to cranes. When we show up most other trades must get out of our way. They are at the job for months or years we show up periodically and because of the overhead hazards they clear out our work area. That in turn lets us feel important and can get our ego pumped. You should post some videos of your experience. I would check it out

@@ryanburbridge hahaha i DEFINITELY know what you mean about the ego thing. Every operator I’ve ever oiled for thinks they’re the shit 😂😂. The other reason I don’t want to get my crane license is because once I do and add it to my card then that’s all I’ll ever get called out for. I’d rather be on a dozer or excavator!

I’m honestly not sure why they used that particular attachment. That was the first time i had done that. Set a few tanks before but they customer always used their own equipment to fill. I scanned through the video looking for the part where the crane went down. You may have to time stamp it. Crane theory sounds fun. Devore? Is that the Local 12 training site?

@@ryanburbridge Devore is an OETT Training Site. Local 12, Yes.

Oh yeah this one sucked This was on the 10 fwy. From what i understand the operator was using a vibrator to pull soldier beams. Traditionally you would loosen as many as you can reach then set the vibrator down as it weighs 20/25k then pull the beam and trip them from far radius to close. Looks like this operator decided to try to trip a beam with the extra weight of the vibrator starting at the closest radius then just sent it till she flipped. If i had to keep the vibrator i would have laid the beam down on the swing but they may not have wanted the operator to swing towards traffic. Companies will ask for the impossible then blame the guy that gives it to them.

Yeah? What about it?

Don’t see any content on your channel. I think there are things that you do that others would find helpful. Try it out.

Oh man umm

I imagine the leaf spring on the back may be in the wrong spot. That flat spring resets the trigger and the disconnecter

Thanks. After 4 years of religiously charging my batteries while parked. This week i destroyed one of them with a loose connection 🤦🏼‍♂️

Ha ha yeah the only issue i would like to solve is finding a watering jug that fits in the holes and brings the water level up to the correct level. Like an actual maintenance battery.

@@ryanburbridge I keep a Basting Syringe for this reason. Has worked for years on car and boat batteries. Works on these tiny holes as well.

Ha ha right on! Yeah it is frustrating that they call them maintenance free. Glad it helped

Ha ha yeah the guy i made the video for years ago never did respond. Glad it helped. Obviously not a polished video like we have now days. Thanks!

Good catch. It definitely gets nasty. These have a pretty positive spring pressure they have to overcome when connecting and a good wiggle also helps scrape through the crud. Also i live in SoCal so perfect weather for exposed metal. Definitely recommend a cover for those that live in real weather country.

On a job at moment. I’ll hit you back with info later. Where are you working at the moment?

A first step apprentice earns 60% of our journeyman rate. So starting pay would be $45.39 or $45.40 I recommend you search Operating Engineers Training Trust local 12 and fill out the application as soon as it opens. Oett dot net

Good to know! Would be interesting to see the two side by side. Or inside by inside lol. I’m not Pakistani though

They can rebuild things. We can purchase things. @@ryanburbridge

What’s up buddy. You getting last minute preparations done for your big day?

Been 2 years since your last upload. Let’s go!

All my hobbies upset various 3 letter government agencies so I cannot film them@@ryanburbridge

Ha ha thanks. I watched a video this morning of some guy filming at one of the tank manufacturers yards. Then got a dispatch to head out and set these today. Figured I’d make a quick video. Tanks came in at 11 thousand pounds and crane was good for about 20 at 50 feet radius. Easy to throw them around at half chart lol

Should have stopped and said like subscribe and comment lol

Ha ha busted

Yeah bro BHC fired me back in 2020 over covid bullshit. The hook is to attach the rigging directly to the boom and set k-rail under bridges power lines or low signs. No fun lol. Where are you at nowadays?

@@ryanburbridge yeah I kinda thought that's what it is for, just wasn't sure. I am unemployed right now.

Well i kinda feel bad now lol. My video was Soo poorly done that entire generations will miss out on the beauty of a true masterpiece. Their is a major difference between paper plates and fine china. A classic mechanical watch and a quartz. Should everyone carry a 1911? No. Are there those that understand all the details and are willing to put the time and effort into a 1911? Yes. Oh by the way. I now carry a custom 320 lol but yeah i get what your saying.

Gracias por el comentario. Este kimber es ligero y patea como una mula.

Absolutely! www.oett.net/dispatch-hall-locations With the link above you will find a list of all the local 12 dispatch offices. At each office they maintain a list of out of work workmen. You can go in person to a hall and pay about $25.00 a month to maintain your name on their list. Each hall charges a fee so i recommend one that covers either the most available work (Pasadena or Anaheim) or one near where you live. You must pay in person every month to maintain your position. Also to be on the list you should have your skills listed. Example: “CCO certified operator with Class A CDL TWIC card”

Good idea lol i was sitting down to dinner tonight and just told my wife i need to send one of my pairs in for resole. Think I’ll post a video before and after. Although i decided to send them to JK this time… keep you posted

Thanks for the tip. I have since switched to the 320 in 9mm. 17+1 gun 21 spare vs 7+1 gun 10 spare But man are all these new 2011 guns making me drool

What holster? I had a crossbreed super tuck and loved it. Have broken two full kydex holsters in 9 months for the 320

@@ryanburbridge I use a Urban carry lock leather OTW holster. I love it! Very comfortable even in the car.

In Whittier or city of industry . One of those cities

Umm not sure your question. The video is from the “twin” ports Long Beach and Los Angeles. Specifically 2500 navy way. The old APM side. Definitely not the training trust. I am in local 12 though

@@ryanburbridge yeah that’s what I meant 😂 my bad if your in the OETT local 12

Well let’s hear more! Did you work at the manufacturing plant or the install at the port? Let’s see some content!

@@ryanburbridge It's classified. I can't tell you anything. I like my job ;)

I have never looked myself. Just spent a few minutes and didn’t see any company marketing the exact plug. I will definitely be looking into this further. A couple of suggestions: First i would find a local battery recycler and see if they would be willing to let you have as many as you want. I’m in SoCal and can find these places anywhere. Second i would look for a plug that can fit. Possibly threaded. I’ll pull my plugs and get some measurements. Keep you posted.

Any luck?

It’s old and filled on a potato but I’m glad it helped

Hey, nothing wrong with that. It’s informative and to the point 👌🏻

Definitely depends on the use. I work where i don’t have to crawl around or put a lot of wear on my boots. Definitely would recommend extra protection if your job is go to be hard on toes

No apply ASAP!

If you have a class A you are ahead of most applicants. I recommend if your able to afford it to look at getting your swing cab and fixed cab NCCCO crane cert. if you get that you would be even further ahead. If you have both you can apply at any non union crane outfit and get some practice while you wait on the “out of work” list at your local union hall. The demand is high at the moment.

@@ryanburbridge thanks will do too bad they aren’t accepting anymore applications Will definitely keep my eyes peeled . In the mean time I’ll get my cert thanks a lot !!

Yeah yeah man networking works. Shoot me a text.

@@ryanburbridge man thanks bro I am texting you now. You can delete your info if you’d like. Thank you !

Kinda.

Just got my pair back from JK. Very nice

Save up and order a pair. Worth it. Check in on the other two hand made boots. Franks and JK

I buy used work boots

Good luck!

Any updates?

Appreciate the comment! My first thought is that you are the one that determines what you want to do lol. That being said. Congrats on landing a good job to start. Are you local 12? You have a CDL. What class? Do you have an operating cert? If they allow it show us your rock spread. Keep in touch.

Happy to help

Ha ha well said. Enjoy
