Got some work done on the "tender" flat. Started routing the "plumbing", added safety rails on top of the oil tank, and "handgrabs" for ladder access to the top.
I still haven't figured out exactly how I will do the hoses, and support structure for them. I have to consider what would be the most logical (and safe) way of actually transferring fuel and water, from the "tender" to the crane. I'm currently thinking of a tilt down platform, that the crew can work from. Whatever, there will be some angle iron cutting and welding that will have to be done.
Camera batteries died while trying to shoot pics of the details......they're on charge now........"photos at eleven"

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
