Pictures??

I have a lot of personal pictures, but we sign some pretty specific confidentiality agreements on what the client allows for distribution. Unfortunately I can't show too much because of that. The best place I can point you is to our website - has a fair amount of detail on what we've done. For the Alberta folk, we completed a project for Husky last fall that was fairly interesting and unique. We sunk a small diameter shaft running along a casing. The well sheared below surface and the only way to repair these is to physically be there. Ground water is usually a problem so we typically freeze a barrel around the shaft for ground stabilization and water tightness. Pretty cool little job. We seem to do one of those every 3-4 years.

Gotta respect anything that might drive the bunny huggers and climate activists nuttier while getting something useful out of the ground.

Started a career as a piping designer for 7 years then moved into marketing as a graphic/multimedia artist for an engineering firm. Just over 27 years with the same company and easily have the best job there.

Strain gage based stress analysis. Anything from weighing an egg to a 250k load cells for NASA. A lot of automotive and agricultural parts for testing.

Soon to be retired industrial electrician/engineering technician/supervisor. 37 years in the trade, 48 years on sleds, 1 year on a snow bike and feeling like a kid again. Soooooo much fun! :D

Electrician for 14 years now I've decided to give turnaround management a try for the last couple.
