Had this nice little ship in port for off load

Wow, dropping 20T is no joke any time any where. I'll bet that made quite the racket. Even if no one had been around, it would have made a sound!

That would squish you like a little tiny bug!
Glad no one was injured.

Will the repairs take place in your port?
That would be good for the economy.
Hmmm, I seem to be hatching a plan here.....

Bet you were really glad they were doing the move themselves.

How many HotRod fabricators can you lower down the hold.

I see you took down the op, are we supposed to not talk about it?

Cheers Richard

Dang! I always miss the good posts!

What did we miss?

Hatch recovery
 

well, I thought maybe it wasn't fair of me to post pics of the damage that happened when a hatch cover dropped to the floor of N02 hatch.

This morning we were assigned the job to try and lift the cover out. It went well and now it's on the pier deck.

So perhaps a few pics, although it's an ongoing investigation so not getting too detailed.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1524662277.jpg

Two things: No one injured and our crew not involved in mishap.

Good that no one was injured, and that you didn't get any on you.

Is the hatch cover bent or just an optical illusion?
Maybe they are made that way?

Nice work by the riggers.

Looks bent to me. Will there be engineers involved in the investigation or will it be 'all good, nothing to see here'?

It is bent, in fact buckled in the middle. There will be (is) a bunch of people investigating. This ship could be here for awhile.

Wow.

I have a bunch of questions but I know it is too early!

So is the hatch cover going to be scrap now or would that be repaired?

This accompanies duct tape for repairs:

Don't know yet, let you know if and when. Guessing can be fixed. Little out of our league but we'll see.

How will it ever seal again with that much curvature?

How thick is that floor decking it cut through? It there concern about damage to the beams below that deck?

Good questions, can't answer that.

Flip it upside down and drop it again. Should bend it back.

ding, ding, ding. We have a winner.

That's good outside the box thinking right there! :D

Maybe this time it will cut all the way through the floor...

OK, Mr "My cup's half empty"

;)

:D

Will it fit on a celette bench?

:)

My dad can fix that. He's got an awesome set of tools.

Drop it a couple more times and sell it to X-Games.

good stuff
