Hi,
Amazing stuff.
Cheers
Reminds me of when I was a 'lad' back in the '70's. The 6 storey building I worked in had diesel generators in the basement with heat exchanger cooling systems feeding radiators on the roof with electric fans. The generators were test run monthly and one of the jobs for the 'young bloke' was to go to the roof and clamber along the pigeon **** encrusted parapet (no guard rails) to access the fans/radiators and check the coolant level and fan operation. One slip and a 6 floor drop to the cobblestone lane below. Certainly a sphincter tightening experience. :o

Not a single pair of safety glasses in sight - or any CNC machines!Quote:

Thanks for this. As a person of non heights images that this invokes are enough to cause vertigo. Similar to those taken of the high steel workers of the depression era. Scuse me as I pray to the porcelain throne !Quote:
