Marc, too bad that you can't make it. This workshop was fantastic last year and I'm sure that this year's will be even better...and you can't beat the price.

Hey Pete, just curious. What time are we supposed to show up at St. Charles for the workshop on Thurs?

 

[TheCraneManInc]

Good question Chris. The class starts at 8am. So everyone should show up a little before that. See you next week!

Awesome job by everyone there, from the instructors and the participants. I highly recommend anyone who is remotely thinking about getting into crane work, taking a workshop like this.

I have a lot of pics from the last day that my wife Heide took in the morning that I’ll get posted this week.

Thanks again everyone.

Piece being lowered. I can’t say enough good things about the crane operators that we had. They were great.

 

[chris_girard]

Discussions with the instructors and participants. This was so much help to everyone to better understand how each pick was set up and how it reacted after it was cut.
