Paying for my education!

Work today:
We switched things up from the trailer and continued working on the Vicwest panels. It's been months of work for the company (good news for me!) These panels are made to be a seamless wall... Finished product will be pretty sweet looking! Constructing involves bending the panels, cutting the extrusion to length, and aluminum welding. Hope it's counting for hours ;)

LAST 2 WEEKS

Having been very busy the past 2 weeks i have neglected to blog everything i have done. In class I have bee working on alighnments and as of recently looking to the stearing gear. I also did a flow test on the freightliner which i will put pictures up for.

I have been able to tie in some hours at work this weekend building a trap shooting trailer for a customer. It consisted of lots of different things. Sheet metal, welding, electrical, ect... PRETTY SWEET! I learned something somewhat valuable in building this trailer. WE have two 6 volt batteries we are going to run the thing off of rather then a 12 volt. For some reason its better because having two 6 volts, the batteries recover faster, stay maintained, and hold a charge better? or so i was told from a guy at the battery store.

hmmm...

Class hours in 2 weeks: 62
Work hours: 8
