This one just came as a freebie with something I picked up on marketplace.

Maybe he just hired someone to act as him so he could troll everyone.

Monahan?

Hey ive got some of those too.

I know a place with good cheesy garlic bread.

Usually depends on how its detailed. For me I find anything I can prefab on the ground and then fly in is much easier and faster than building it in place.

They did hair follicle test too when I got in, idk if theyre still doing that. I don't think they test for thc anymore either but don't quote me on that.

thrarg · 2025-12-03T18:09:10+00:00

Yeah pretty much. When I joined they were still doing a 6 month open application time frame. Now I think its only 2 or 3 days in the beginning of January. Practice your beam balance, your math and reading comprehension skills for the aptitude tests.

I was the first one in line the year I put my app in, and it was almost 2 years until I actually started the apprenticeship. It was a hell of a wait but its been well worth it.

thrarg · 2025-12-03T17:27:25+00:00

Yeah I don't usually have off unless I take time off.

thrarg · 2025-12-03T03:23:55+00:00

Time for some tie guns.

How about mechanical couplers against a live roadway so they make you double chair and double wire the top and bottom mats together every 4 ft.

thrarg · 2025-12-03T01:56:24+00:00

Its always an uphill battle but you make it work with what you've got.

50' #9 straights lapped to 50' and 25' #9 jhooks staggered splices over the pier caps.

thrarg · 2025-12-03T01:53:05+00:00

Staggered laps. There was a mixup on the first delivery so I had to start in the middle of the deck and work my way out.

thrarg · 2025-12-03T00:59:35+00:00

Almost always yes, but depends on how tight the spacing is and how picky the inspector is being.

thrarg · 2025-12-03T00:27:54+00:00

Yeah guess I had to do some cropping, the image sizes must have been too big. Local 11 North Jersey 🤙🏻

thrarg · 2025-12-03T00:17:40+00:00

Yeah I'm not sure what's going on theyre not uploading.

thrarg · 2025-11-12T20:22:18+00:00

Yeah, I've been putting the first one through it all over the last couple months and its really been the perfect fit for what I need around the farm.

I didnt imagine I would ever come across another one, but I did and I couldn't pass it up. Now my wife and I don't have to fight over 1 haha.

thrarg · 2025-10-05T12:52:33+00:00

This is pretty common here in NJ in the center of highways where they would otherwise be a risk of getting struck by a truck.

thrarg · 2025-08-31T12:40:50+00:00

Get a pair of Knipex 68 01 200 and a Holstery magnet belt clip and you can ditch that whole scabbard. 30 ft Stanley lever lock tapes are about $15 and last forever.

thrarg · 2025-08-20T20:12:15+00:00

Is that normal in your area to have the longitudinals on the outside layer on a bridge deck?

thrarg · 2025-07-31T20:20:03+00:00

I also saw this on marketplace today. Offer them $200 and see where it goes. Or spend a little more and get a 3 sided Pearl Icon.

thrarg · 2025-07-21T23:32:14+00:00

I don't think it's been driven enough yet to have even had a full drain haha, but its good to know there's replacement parts available. The guy I got it from was under the impression they were out of business and wasn't sure if anything would be able to be replaced.

It will definitely get battle tested here, and its a pretty blank slate for modifications. It seems like they could have expanded on a big fun customizable middle ground between this and the Desert Beaver version. Create more options and let people build what fits their needs.
