Getting
to Work
early helps me get relaxed. I sip my morning Coffee as well as
looking around to see what I can start working on before anyone tells
me to. I had made certain when I worked on the Cooler
yesterday that everything was clean and dry at the end of the shift.
This morning I noticed Water on the floor by my Workbench
right below where the TIG Torch was hanging. This is the same
Torch that was on the Welding Machine the day I started
and it had been wrapped with an Insulated Cover that was taped
in place.
When
I checked the Cover was soaking Wet so I started
cutting the Tape off. What I found were Three Bare Spots
where there was no insulation around the Conductor Cable. It
was those Bare Spots that was causing the other Welder
and myself to be jolted not the Pump.
How
a TIG Torch works is the Conductor Cable is inside a
Liquid Cooled Hose. The Liquid is then
returned by another smaller Hose to the Cooler. A Third
Hose carries the Inert Gas that shields the weld. It was
strange seeing the Owner on the shop floor right at 7:00 this
morning. When I showed him the problem he suggested I try to repair
it because a Torch like that was worth nearly a Thousand Dollars.
Luckily someone had salvage just such a Conductor Cable so I
was able to swap it out.
The
Second Aluminium Project was finally shipped out Twelve
Days after it was completed. I finished today modifying another
Welding Jig and as well as the Hydraulic Frame Cart.
Kathy
had an appointment with our Family Doctor this morning. He
noticed an improvement in her Rosacea since changing her
medication. He was also happy to see her hand was doing much better.
Kathy then stopped at Wendy’s for
lunch off the Value Menu.

It
felt good getting Home before 4:00 especially since I didn’t
get a chance to talk to Kathy at lunchtime. She needed a Prescription
filled but had to come Home
after getting the Mail at Guardian
Storage because she was expecting a call.
We
headed off to Pharma Choice in
Amherstburg and only had to wait
a few minutes for them to have the Prescription filled.
We
stopped at Subway where we shared
a Turkey Sub for supper. By having it cut in half before they
start we are both able to have the vegetables we like.
We
walked around the Dollarama for a
while picking up a few things that we needed. It was mostly to walk
off a bit of supper and for me to see more then the Workplace.
Like the light coloured treetops. |
Tomorrow
Kathy has more appointments so we’ll see how they go. Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.

Good thing you have perseverance. I would have refused to touch that thing if I got shocked even once!! LOL
ReplyDeleteSeems there's always something at that shop! Good you know how to fix those things! A little running around after work, you do have the energy!
ReplyDeleteI think YOU should be the surpervisor at the shop you work at.
ReplyDeleteI know I have said it before but I worry that you being a "big guy" are undernourished!
I was about to ask abut Kathy's hand. So glad that is it coming along.
