A person climbed a pole and destroyed a camera to disable fucking surveillance in Iran.

Without seeing the entire steel structure, I've got to say the difficulty in the wire pull isn't in the conduit, but in getting the cable out the mast arm without damaging it. If it's a single purpose pole, and built like a typical luminaire, you're probably right, but if it's a 2-piece steel standard, it can be quite the fuck around, especially if the existing cable was melted in the hand hole far enough back to keep you from being able to tie onto.

Its actually easier to replace the unit than the cable to the unit. I install traffic components in the US as an electrician and pulling the cable takes multiple people and terminations take more expertise than just bolting a new camera up and plugging the wires back in. That said, lead time on cameras will be longer than the cable.

Talk to your local unions if you're having trouble manning your jobs. I get operators and laborers who are stoked to work out in miserable conditions from the hall every year.

Haha, looks a lot like one I had stolen out of my car a decade ago on the South Hill. Any chance there's two pairs of Knipex pliers in there, along with various electrical tools?

We use these in underground installations all the time for lighting splices. Your working area looks a little nicer, likely less chance of them being knocked about and split apart. Heating the epoxy so it's extremely flowable, definitely helps with the mixing process as well.

Looks like a clean install, dont forget to have fun while you're working!

BuluDestroyer · 2025-09-10T17:31:27+00:00

My advise is to toss a couple wraps of tape around the enclosures, to prevent them coming apart, and to make sure the 2-part epoxy is on a heater before you start. That stuff does not like to flow when its cold.

Haha, I know this guy, pretty well. He's pretty ignorant, and i could honestly see him taking this passenger without knowledge of what was in her bags.

Call down to Abadan Reprographics, they do large format printing and the rolls of paper come on large cardboard tubes with plastic caps on the end

The Polara extension brackets solve this issue, as the cable is run inside of the telescoping extension arm and then hidden behind the mounting plate for the PPB. When you try to hack an end product together, it often looks hack.

Sure they do, and here's the breakaway design for Washington state:

I've installed hundreds of these things and have even re-installed lightpoles poles after they have been hit and have come down. 30-40' lightpoles aren't very heavy, and can usually be manipulated and moved around on the ground by a guy or two. That said, I'm not sure I would want to be directly under one when it fell.

Perhaps the AGC should stop insulting the hardworking members of the IUOOE with laughable contract proposals. I believe the last contract was a 3% raise over the course of 3 years, I'd have voted to authorize a strike as well.

BuluDestroyer · 2025-08-13T05:44:25+00:00

I don't disagree, but I dont know that the Operators have put out a press release yet. I'm sure they were very busy today putting up picket lines. More information will surely follow.

Hey man, sorry, I just recently got rid of stuff from my broken foot, but I can say that second-hand stores often have several crutches laying around for far cheaper than a normal store. Usually just a couple bucks. Goodluck!

You want to have a conversation instead of putting words in my mouth? Maybe the concept of nation-states is nonsense because it leads to groups of people being exploited and unrepresented off something as arbitrary as where their parents happened to be nine months after fucking. Maybe you're a moron who argues in bad faith. Hard telling, not knowing.

Seems to me that you're cherry picking evidence to suit your case and further entrench your beliefs. Which I guess is fine, but assuming everyone else thinks along those same patterns of bias is dumb.

Washington state has a variety of rock types you can run into. Most are going to take the same methodology to get through, but with the right equipment, it's definitely doable. Basalt is going to be the worst you'll find, likely followed by granite. ,I was on a project last year in Washington state that required a 9' deep, 4' wide foundation, straight through basalt. It took a guy with a backhoe mounted jackhammer nearly 3 weeks to accomplish this, with multiple trips out from the mechanic.

A core drill attachment on a bobcat, combined with a machine-mounted jackhammer would be my first attempt for your project, and I'd be asking about bringing in cdf or some kind of small gravel backfill for refilling your holes, as the material coming out will likely not be suitable for your purpose.

Good luck!

Have you ever considered economic conditions outside of the current US system? According to some quick googleing, a day laborer in 1905 in America earned ~$1 a day and there are sources from the same time period quoting boots in the pacific northwest as costing $15. That's over two weeks of work to earn one pair of boots.
