2479 Progress Update - September 23, 2006 |
Completed gouging out of cracks around number 2 driver pedestal liners. Each liner, on the shoe and wedge side, had extensive cracks.
Removed two rigid staybolts on fireman's side of firebox in area to be pad welded. Threads on the wrapper sheet were slightly damaged during process.
Wednesday crew continued to rearrange pallets of bricks. About 45 pallets of brick have now been repositioned to allow easier grass (weed) cutting. Some pallets have rotted away. As these pallets are encountered bricks are being transferred to new pallets.
Preventative maintenance performed on forklift and lawn tractor. Small cracks were found on a part of the lawn tractor. Part has been removed for welding.
Attempted to perform final cut on a wedge. Found during cutting process that out Bridgeport would not perform a flat cut. The mill does not seem to like heavy loads on the table. Next attempt will be on the shaper planner in the outside machine shop.
Biggest news was the "disappearance" of about 2/3 of the huge pile of dirt.
