Nesssaintee's World

Is there a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow?

Mondays :-( why?
Shouldn't say that really, early start and it's not finished yet, have much more to do before I can rest for the evening.
But everything went ok, until I got here. I had to laugh, tying knots in fibre optic cores, is not the way to splice them.
This, by the way, is part of the pipe handling system I have been working on. The top track is brought down and gently (45 bar of pressure is gentle as far as this baby is concerned) squeezes the pipe, the pipe can then be driven forward or back if required.
Pipes come coated and in 15m lengths, further down stream from here, they are end bevelled, dressed, lined up and welded together (in some cases 8 different welding and inspections)
From here the pipe joins go through a non destructive testing routine, are coated and painted,they are laid out in 1km (pm indeed spelling corrector on iPad) lengths called stalks in readiness for spooling onto the pipe laying boat.
Today was wet and grey, mostly grey. Did see a cracking rainbow on my way back from here earlier on.

By my reckoning, it is in Munlochy Bay :-/
