    Nice T800. Don't see them with the external air cleaners in south Alabama.

    Years ago when the money was stupid I pulled hundreds of them. Those are probably 57-60 meter blades. They will be anywheres from 200-220ft long. I quit pulling blades because they began to pay the same as the windmill hubs. I began pulling hubs, and would see some of the guys I ran with before. Would you believe the SEHCTIB wouldn’t speak to me? And I was the one that showed them how to do number one standing up.

    Those guys are pulling 60m blades for less than what we pulled 39m blades.

    “But Six, it’s blades!”

    Sorry, I’m here for the money. No finance, no romance.

    He posted he has 4 of them attached together with angle iron.

    "Since l do so many coil loads l have 4 coil racks fastened together with 2 4' pieces of 1x1 angle"

    Yup. One of those times I loaded a page and didn't get around to reading it until later I guess, then responded without realizing more had been said...

    Second time tarping a load. 26ft steel circular bars. My 26ft tarp fit perfectly. Also first time I used rubber rope. 3/8 solid core off Amazon. Must say I'm very happy with it. Quicker than bungies, maybe.
