The Iron Heart Forum Triangle of Terror Type III Trucker Tour 2018 - Updates thread

great fireworks @scooter .Is that a new furnace? I see the new water cooled ductwork- They chose a hell of a time to build-US Steel just idled a third blast furnace-
I'm a steamfitter, employed by an outside contractor. I've spent a total of 24 days, over the past two summers, at this facility. So, I'm by no means an expert, when it comes to their operations. From what I was told, they've had an issue with winter ice accumulation in the scrap coming from the yard. What they have built is being used to remove the ice/water prior to melting. The company is Charter Steel. They specialize in bar, rod, and wire. They have rolling facilities on site, as well. My primary duties have been replacing/rerouting lime line, and installing new stainless steel oxygen lines. With the money they are throwing around, I assume they are doing alright.

My apologies, everyone. Work, personal commitments, excessive heat, and a PC that became non-compliant some weeks ago, have all put a damper on my leg of the tour. I have managed to take pics, in the meantime, though. I am picking my PC up from the shop, this afternoon. I will try to have an update (big photo dump), by the end of the weekend. I'm also planning for a visit to the Harley-Davidson Museum with it, before the Labor Day weekend. I plan to have it in the mail to @DrBabyhorse, by next Saturday. Hopefully, September weather will bode better, for him.

What happens to this jacket at the end of the list? Another go
Around?? -
I have not. But, today was the first time I tagged him.
I’m still around. I have a little baby keeping me busy but I do my best to keep up. It’s still summer here so if anybody wants to swap turns that would be better, but if not I’m ready to go. [emoji1417]

Excellent. @DK is next on the list after you. Maybe work it out between yourselves and lets keep this going.

PM sent. Let’s just assume it’s still my turn unless you hear anything different from me or @dk.

I got the jacket in the mail last week. I haven’t had a chance to wear it out because it’s been too hot. I’m getting a bit anxious because it really is a great jacket and it fits me perfectly. It’s incredibly soft and has aged spectacularly (makes me think I need to wear my type III more). Here are some pictures… hopefully I’ll be wearing it in the next ones.
Good chocolate and some cool tunes. This tour is pretty rad.

Looks spectacular, not least in the sunshine. Seeing this I felt a pang of nostalgia for the jacket. Looking forward to my next leg, despite it being over a year away.
I can only imagine what it will look like by then!
