Butch is carefully guiding the balanced beam as Doug shuffles it into the building with the forks. Careful to watch your toes Butch!
 
 
The other day Doug called and asked if Trevor and I could stop by and help move some ladders with he and Butch. We stopped by and found a pile of goodies that Doug had collected during a whirlwind trading tour that resulted with a new pile of wood for an upcoming project.

The pile consisted of ground ladders and 2 timbers that will be used to re-construct the main aerial ladder of the Sacramento tiller truck.

You don't see one piece of wood this size, anywhere, ever any more. Doug has a knack for finding just what we need, just when we need it. It's who you know!

 

...the beams will live here, next to the Wassau truck until we begin refining them for their new role in Sacramento, CA on the tiller ladder truck.
