Default All in a days work...

Just some fun pics of what I do each day.
Was reading up on doing spindle bearings and steering knuckles, and thought I'd share the ones I just did at work.

The second pic is of the inside of a 750 gallon tank after I drained the gycol from it for repairs.

View from my shop on any given day. Second pic is after 3 hours of fishing.

Do you work on planes or on the other machinery used on the airport? Those brakes are enormous.

I can't wait to go fishing, my trip is planned for the first June weekend.

I'm the Ground Support Equipment(GSE) and Facilities mechanic. I touch everything but the aircraft(I do harass the aircraft mechanic, however).

Those pics are for a pushback tug(pushes the Boeing 737s around). Had to replace the axle, spindle and hub seals.
Planetary gear axles.

Have fun fishing!
