I drop a lot of stuff when working up high :-\

I'd be dropping my LUNCH if I had to work up high!  :happypuke:

 Not that high my feet are just over eight feet off the ground standing on top of this.  Sorry it's from my cell phone and not that good.  I built the platform on top this morning


It's actually a very good picture. Eight feet off the ground would be more than enough to unnerve me!  :zombiefuck:

Anyone remember the song from the early seventies ... ?




And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.












It has not happened.
 :'(



I feel that I have invested too much of my life listening for and seeking out  "The Piper."


I am beginning to feel that it is my time to just give him up and learn to play the pipe myself. If there is reason in my tune, I invite you NOT to follow my rhythm, but to pick up your own pipe.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

I have not seen or heard of Fatty McBlob in way too long.

Anyone in contact with her?

I think almost everyone is prone to that, I know I am.

You should place a tiny trampoline underneath the scaffolding!
That way the stuff you drop will land there and bounce back up to you!  :idea:

When items are dropped while working from scaffolding they usually hit the deck of the scaffold. What concerns me is dropping when on a beam 15' or much higher. That can hurt someone real bad.

Yes, a 14" pipe wrench hitting a hard hat from high up will probably cause serious neck and back pain, without the hard hat it could more easily cause paralysis or death.  :zombiefuck:

Yeah, perhaps it's not for you. I have spent a lot of my work time in or on flightlines, Naval Shipyards and Refineries or other heavy industrial.
