Andrew and I are going to make a couple of stands for lights to attach to Toro 648 aerators
My students helping out with the design and doing all the welding.
Nice lights from Princess Auto on sale
Cutting out the uprights
Moved both aerators in from cold storage
Quickest way was to weld it to this framing and it's handy to the power source.
finishing up one of the stands
While waiting for paint to dry He might as well learn a new skill.
We cut up brake line stock to use in practicing making double flares
Excellent first try . Perfect dimple . First step in double flaring lines
After attachment was removed use just the tool to finish the job . Handy skill to know !
Back to lighting up 648's
Removed battery and loosened of control panel to get a good weld
Trying it out with gator clips direct to battery . Waiting for switches and inline fuses to show up .
Guys using them can make the final adjustments next time they go out . Lights up a pretty big area . We wanted the lights elevated because some areas drop off fairly steep
Wiring up the second set while paints drying .He's getting pretty good .
Welding up the second one just in time before end of shift. Andrew accepted a position on the crew and will be a good fit . Will be nice to have a helper when I need one or a second set of eyes that can do some repairs . May be train him up to service and repair carts as needed .Small stuff like repairing bent up front ends ...adjusting brakes ect .
