Welcome to TCG!
This thread you stumbled across….it didn’t happen to be about a Russian Lathe Accident….did it?
I don’t drive anything cool. 2006 vw Jetta tdi. The only cool thing is how long the tank stays full. And by heavy iron I mean heavy equipment. Construction, industrial, mining etc.What do you drive.
What is 'heavy iron"?
It didn’t actually haha. But a coworker did show me that one and I haven’t used the lathe since...Welcome to TCG!

We’ll see if I post these pictures right... Pulling pumps on a trackhoe, a 50 tonner with a cracked boom, undercarriage work, and a mini ex that had a run in with a bridgeWelcome, should post up some of that heavy equipment!
Yeah I get that for sure, different stuff for different people man. I used to do automotive work and just never got passionate about it and wasn’t happy with the money where I was at.Good stuff. For real love seeing it.
I just have no interest in that stuff.
Will do man. I need to be better about taking pictures of stuff at work ?I have lots of interest in all that so please keep posting it up.
I LOVE seeing it tooI have lots of interest in all that so please keep posting it up.
