Well as can be expected sir.....So when are you going to have a need for a side kick and under study.... I have laid some serious pipe in my day and the whole idea of funneling the bodies down the shitter has my interest piqued

You won't leave Arizona!............ I could use you right now! I'm thinking about adding a machinist in the shop, and an outside technical sales rep. (except everybody keeps telling me the economy is bad):dontknow:

Your just a laugh a minute Scotty!..... Hey Prof, I can call in a favor here. But, who gets his truck?

 

[TREKER]

Rosie O'Gradys or Delfrisco's are both great steak houses. Ruth Chris always an option. Bargin basement steaks Tad's broiled steaks $2.99 special uke:
Or in honor of Mags, we can go to Sparks on 3rd ave. (Joey, you remember Frankie C gettin whacked there a few years ago)

All good options. I'm up for it. Would love to break bread with you boys.

 

[Prof]

PS. John, I have a confession,......... I have cursed to high Heaven, many an engineer. I'm truely sorry. But,....... it ALWAYS looks GREAT on PAPER.

If it makes you feel any better, I have done the same thing at times.

Maybe sometime I will go into how I feel my profession has degraded over the years with the advent of computer aided drafting. To me it's sad.

I'm really hoping that they will be announcing sometime this Summer what I have been working on for the last 3+ years. It will be nice to talk about it.

Heyyy...I think CAD is great for visualization, and alot faster than hand drawing shit...I know..People end up becoming computer stupid, so I get your drift there. In the right hands though you can do some pretty cool stuff with some of the programs out there. Add in programs like MatLab, or Labview, and and others,and theres not a whole lot you cant model, and simulate before you start cutting metal..Without CAD, I dont think we would have come as far as we have in developing new stuff..just a design pukes opinion..If you ask me, I think the enginnering curriculum these days is where some of the problem lies.
While my classes to this point have been basic in nature, they sure arent teaching me much of what I dont already know..But give me a computer over a slide rule any day..lol

I Thought I would share a couple of pics. A quick peek into my life, and how I earn my living. This is a 48" forcemain (pipe for sewage under pressure) headed to the nearest treatment center in Brooklyn. The bridge in the background is the Verrazano and the roadway is the Belt Parkway. The tee is a 48" x 30", (discount if you mention the VTCoA) cut in after the pipe had been buried, eventually for air release. Air is not good when pumping liquids. There is much I could add, but I figured most of you would be asleep by now anyway.

kick ass Job bo:rock: :rock:

I used to haul alot of those from company called redvalve in nc

I know Red Valve very well. I have sold their rubber check valves and knife gates into the City. Small world, huh?

 

[Black1]

Damn shitty job you got there! :rock:

.... You should give Mike Rowe a call.

yessir, used to uh, hootchie the secretary there

I didnt live far from there, its a small place , but right off interstate 85

 

[nycstev]

Ok Joe let me see if I understand this. You are installing tees the purpose of which would be to install high pressure blow off valves right? So my question is which way are you aiming them? Not at the parkway I hope! Alsois this method approved by the DEP?

This will eventually become an "air release" manhole, not blow off. I'll try and get more pics as the structure is finished. The real innovation here is the fact that, the contractor didnot want to stop installing the pipe while the City decided to add more manholes. We offered this innovative product that could be "cut in" after the fact, to make the tee flanged connections, thereby not stopping the jobs progress. (Time is money). PS, nothing gets installed UNTIL it's approved by the DEP. It took almost 6 months for an answer on our suggested method and equipment. (I just hope it passes the pressure test) That is why we visited the jobsite. We wanted to be sure this was installed correctly.
