I just had a look at your fb page very nice work
I was really impressed with the Lincoln welder at the coal plant, there were sets offshore many years ago on hook up and sometime there would be none starters due to flat battery the welders were amazed when I hooked the weld cables of the machines together the non start wind the current full up the other right down and start the good machine and slowly wind the current up and the engine started turning over and started good old days before to much HSE was involved lol

Hi, the Lincoln is about late 1960's, I've had it for 26 years. It's always been reliable. I started a refurb a couple of years ago which is still a work in progress. I know it doesn't comply with modern regulations but most of the sites I'm on they're just happy that the welding is getting done. Gary

I had a look at your front bollards I thought they were quite a good idea with the high rail at the back for support I quite fancy having a go at building one with a bracket on the top for a light over the bow

If it's the ones I'm thinking of I made them for the ASIS RIBs. You can send me a pic to confirm.
