We are beuro Veritas and the last few years they have been hit and miss with their inspections. One guy actually said he couldn't pass our new loadall because their procedure for checking the Safe Load Indicator was to pick something up and boom out horizontal until all lights came on with buzzer with rear wheels still on ground, the new loadall has extra safety measure which won't let you boom out to the point of full buzzer. I had to set it up and boom out as far as it would go and stand on the forks myself to get the buzzer on before he was satisfied

Our loadall is the same, but it just seems stupid to go to them lengths when the system is clearly working anyway?!

Exactly, it's doing it's thing making operation safe, he was just a bit out of touch imho . Other inspectors we've had have been spot on.Our loadall is the same, but it just seems stupid to go to them lengths when the system is clearly working anyway?!

they have to see the max. safe load light and alarm operate AND the overload alarm too .... same with cranes ... both must work as it's usually a fine line between each (and often takes some setting up accurately)

I guess the fine line on weight is Quattromike after a bacon cob then?

Today’s creation needed a bog roll holder for the yard (mrs mogman) wasn’t too impressed with my brothers attempt
A 6” long screw in the wall
So came up with a twin holder
hope it’ll stand the weight off both rolls (they are quilted)

Had a few days on my boat job managed to seal off the sea chest with the help of a double mattress and a piece of tauliner sheet 
took the cylinder heads off (6 separate ones) but did 3 at a time
held down with four 80mm nuts each
that’s one of my gloves between cylinders 2 and 3 on the right

All one piece now
will try to pull the pistons and rods, just trying to get the boat a bit higher in the water so we can tow it into a ‘lagoon’ that has a slip way

Had a good day on the ‘boat’ today managed to strip both sides of the engine cut the drive shaft (8” solid bar) and pull all the pistons out
this is the last one reaching for the sky
they are 12.5 inches diameter just for comparison here are three pistons and con rods can you guess which one is from a land rover
so now to get the con rod off had to carry it over to the press on the handler
and used a stack of old Land Rover pistons to push the ‘little’ ends out
this is what’s stamped on one of them
