Pine Hill Vat - Henricks Two of the pictures are of plywood lathe installations or retrofits, one at our Foster, Oregon facility and the other at our Wright City, Oklahoma facility. These lathes are leveled to plus or minus 0.005" of an inch and aligned with the flow to Plus or minus 0.010" of an inch. We use a Leica T2002 electronic theomat, Wild NA2 level with GPM3 parallel plate micrometer, lateral adjusting blocks, and Starrett Machinist rules w/attachments. (see picture right) The uneasy part of this type of work is the lathe will not be completely put together and running for another 6 months. Right now you can see the lathe clearly. It will be buried, like a car engine, with steel components and look totally different when operating. When you walk away from this job it is a wait and see if all goes well. The old saying no news is good news applies with this type of work.- Henricks
The picture was taken on the sawmill roof at Dallas, Oregon while we were doing a DEQ title 5 air emission survey of all discharge points from the mill buildings. This included all stacks, blowers, cupolas, and in general any vent to atmosphere where process air could vent to the outside. We took advantage of setting up on a stable building to see on top of the various roofs and structures. Note we had on fall protection to use as needed. The data gathered was used to create 3D models of the air once it left the building and traveled away from the facility under different atmospheric weather conditions.-Henricks Brooks Brooks
