So cool to see what an ordinary day is like for a millwright from start to finish. Most videos you see on YT are so heavily edited you don't get a sense for it. Appreciate the time you put into getting this all filmed and edited nicely. Also good on you for showing your nephews the trade - they'll no doubt have an abundance of opportunities moving ahead.
I'm a millwright in a glass factory were getting ready for a rebuild for the melter I should record that wonder how many people would like to see what we do from tear down to steel work to placing the block and firing it back up
New follower here. Just started my millwright apprenticeship with the union and your video Made me realize that there were future self/team employed options. How did land this job?
@@wildcatwillyhi I spoke to my local union in North Carolina and was told the hours in this industry are rarely 8-9 hours day, it can be 90 days for 12 hours and it usually 50-70why is this?
When you have equipment in the are you can't knock off at 5:00 it's the line of work where you have to stay until you reach a good stopping point. Things rarely go according to plan so you have to be able to adapt to the situation

Love those warn pullzalls but never had good luck with the 24v ones switched to the 120v plug in and they seem to hold up better

Something I was born into. Dad and Charlie always did it so I would go along on jobs that were possible. I started my "apprenticeship" when I was 12.

Bad ass
Thanks
Trying to find a company that will hire me as an apprentice. Any advice?
Find a crane company they're always looking for Hired hands. Then you'll get some on the ground experience and meet people.
I find your lack of eye protection disturbing. Not to mention just standing around an open hole without fall protection.
Holy crap, the longer I watch the worse it gets.
Haha
