The other kind of construction

I still consider myself a construction pro but my new job is putting my abilities to the test. I am working on a mechanical crew. Unlike housing or commercial construction evrything here does something, We are currently building a big conveyor system. This isn't like tiling a bathroom or reroofing a building, its a very complicated assembly. I am following along quite well but thank god I am not in charge. I need to learn some basic skills to make myself more valuable, certified welder and pipefitter seem to be important so I'll start there. My good neighbor is giving me something of the runaround but I will resolve that soon then its off to my barn project. Have fun as you gather in SF.
