Any Apprentice Or Recently Qualified Boilermakers On Here?


Recommended Posts

i love that this thread has had some new life injected into it... by a fitter! :P

i do almost zero welding at work, and when i do its only ever arc. i have never touched a mig or a tig at work... i do muck about with them at home though :ninja:

im thinking about buying a unimig procraft 240... any of you guys used one?

btw, good luck with the new job blaqqy, most rods are a work of art- so now your an artist :P

Thanks guys, im f**king pumped to start the new job! rapt as!

daleo - yes pride definatley has something to do with it, if your company does anything for CSL or is in the dairy industry then theres a high possibility.... although we were a new zealand owned company (spew)

No CSL, but I used to work for Dairy Farmers, we installed $42 million in upgraded plant 2 years ago.

16x 11000 litre batching & pre filler storage tanks and about 11tybillion metres of stainless pipework, That was a fun job...:whistling:

just wondering how many boiler makers do we have on here???

Ok i'll admit it, I'm a boiler maker/welder lol....Still haven't met one who drives a GTR, feel like I'm one out in a crowd when I pull up on site.

    • Thanks guys! Some pics attached 😋
    • Big enough for you, Jackie, and some puppers mate! I vote some GSDs, but I am biased   How big of a block is it on?
    • Well, fun day was had, I finally found a house that will do me just fine, 1980's brick build, but with full fresh renovations, plus new colour bond fencing all round so puppies are incoming 🐕, and water tanks for the garden, and it's located in West Goulburn..... @Duncan 🫡, so day trips to Wakie to watch cars going Zoom will be on the cards In the end it cost well under my budget and was actually better than alot of the more expensive joints I was looking at, it is in a good area, close enough to the shops, public transport, and the Wollondilly River Weir,  and the great walking paths along the river, but far enough away from town to see minimal traffic The deposit is dropped, the conveyancer is conveyancing and I should get the keys in a week or 2 as the property is currently unoccupied  As with everything I own, I'm doing up a modifications list, as it doesn't have solar, that is first up on the big list, all of the panels and enough batteries to keep the joint warm, or cool, followed by a largish carport out the front, the small list, which will start as soon as I have keys, is some security stuff, like cameras, screens, and the usual "crazy prepper" additions that weird old people like (mouse holes to stick shot guns out of, and the usual man traps that the average person installs for the unsuspecting and unwanted guests 🤣) The gardens front and back are OK, but, not to my standards or liking, so landscaping will be a fun job to start getting into, so when spring is sprung I'll do a heap of planting, lots of natives and vegetables is the plan, the old owners were more "Old English Garden" type, so basically Roses and other weird looking things that are destined for the green waste bin One thing that is staying garden wise is a nice established hedge out the front, it is about 5 foot tall and covers the whole front of the property from prying eyes As for the car hoist, the roof in the garage has some height to it, but, I'll need to get an installer out to see what can be done, width wise may be a issue, but my building inspector will be getting back to me over the next week with his recommendations  Small, but cosy
