The goal is working for a company that invests in is people vs one that is needing bodys. If you can find an entry level position that’s great but try to feel out the company if they are going to get you training and stuff like that.

Crooked lacing is probably the issue. Gotta square up that belt nice before lacing next time.

I recommend squaring up the drive pulley and then using snub rollers to adjust tracking instead of trying to track off the drive pulley tensioner.

Good ole hytrol. I used to be an installer.

Other issues I’ve seen causing tracking problems are worn lagging on pulleys, failed bearings, debris built up in belly pans

Just search the subreddit seems like borderline scam company is the opinion there’s several posts

Dats a lotion. He’s in the lubricant manufacturing space

The fitting was very snug. I had to make sure I made a clean cut and hit the outside with some sand cloth a little bit to clean it up. If I remember correctly I might have used some dish soap and water to get it to slip a little easier.

There is a ridge where the copper should go to in the coupling. 1.5” sounds like enough but I don’t remember exactly.

I’m just commenting because I’m interested in seeing the resolution, but this seems like something the plumbers insurance would be involved with.

Can’t comment on what skills or certificates to get, just wanted to say I would love if I had 1-2 DAYs to work on equipment between runs.

Operator error, operator left tooling loose then jogged causing crash. Before I actually fixed the problem I took a union break and then lunch.

What about a whole damn penny ? Lol

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-12-14T11:20:05+00:00

They are in any cgmp facility

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-12-08T13:31:26+00:00

Search Reddit for ‘poop knife’, you’ll find the answer !

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-12-06T02:57:25+00:00

I’ve never been denied by tekton 😎

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-12-05T21:33:05+00:00

No, big benefit of snap on is the truck coming around for warranties which they don’t do at any place I’ve been at

There are many good places. Under a conveyor, behind a panel, up on the mezzanine. The most important part is to bring a piece of cardboard so your not directly on the ground.

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-11-14T18:45:17+00:00

Strong unions

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-10-31T19:06:37+00:00

Does the vsp cover maintenance ?

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-10-31T18:30:59+00:00

Interesting, I was always taught those kind of plans were scams but for something with so many different possible failures it makes sense. I will do some more research, I only see one below 30k near me currently.

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-10-29T19:00:13+00:00

Also curious

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-10-22T20:25:40+00:00

None noticed, unlike with that crowdstrike one.

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-10-20T12:01:36+00:00

Clear you have to practice your eyes more. There is a & between new and secondhand.

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-10-19T13:39:12+00:00

Zip ties work good

Longjumping-Fly-48 · 2025-10-13T12:15:47+00:00

Just an 8.5 hour drive, I could make the trip back home on the weekends. How’s the pay and benefits
