DOUBLE DUCK 634 WORLD TOUR
-
So the jeans showed up about a week ago! So far I've worn them while doing some renovations to the house I bought a few months ago as well as at work. I didn't get any picture while doing the renos but I did manage to get some pictures at work. I'm an electrician in the truck shop at an open pit mine. I usually work on 200-300 ton trucks and some times the front end loaders used to load them. I'll try and post again in a few weeks!
-
Fucking hell - you work on some serious machinery!.. Can't wait for more pics!..
Yeah I've only been working this job for about 5 months now so I'm still in awe with it all myself! Im hoping to get into the field sometime this month so I can get some pictures of the mine itself.

That would be mental. I’d love to see it.

Is that the engine out of the truck?

Yup! Most of them run Cummins V16 ~2400hp diesel engines driving generators which power electric wheel motors.

My work week is almost over (work Wednesday to Tuesday) so I decided I'd post the pictures I've taken since my last post.
Had to replace a burned up wire harness for the fuel injectors.
Relaxing on the truck frame with the double ducks poking out.
This is a grid box we rebuilt, it is basically 4 banks of resistors that are used in the braking of the trucks.
The summer before last a haul truck ran over a pickup truck. The person in the truck was was less than a couple feet from the tire crushing them.
I did manage to get into the field but didn't make it into any of the pits. In the background you can see a waste dump.
I'll try and get some pictures of home renos in the next week, maybe try to get a fit picture which I've been putting off because I find them awkward haha

This is so good. It all looks like something out of a 70’s sci-fi movie. That crushed truck is mental. Keep it coming @_streetshark [emoji1434]

Started the day by painting some trim
Managed to get a walk in with the dogs
I little shot of the double ducks ft. my buffalo check UHF
Put down the trim after the walk
Now it's time to relax with a glass of whiskey (and water)

@_streetshark any news on the jeans?
-
I have tried emailing @_streetshark a couple of times but nothing back.
Anyone got any other contact details for him?
-
Absolutely @Adman103
Watched @DanielAFC 's Sports, Meat, and Denim Leg once again. Gorgeous!

As much as don't want to believe it. I have to admit that this tour is over. I have tried countless times to contact @_streetshark by email and phone. I actually spoke to him once and asked where the jeans were to which he replied he still had them but hadn't seen them in a while! I asked him to send them to me so we could get it moving again. I have heard nothing and certainly not received the jeans. He no longer answers the phone and doesn't get back to my messages.
@Giles I am sorry this has happened you let me start these tours and put up the jeans for nothing. I wanted to let non regulars get involved to help people try the brand or the denim and then hopefully make a purchase. Maybe we should of just stuck to forum regulars I don't know.

Ahh man, that sucks. I've idly thought it'd be fun to be a part of one of these clothing tours someday. I've enjoyed keeping up with a couple of the threads, even though I rarely post anything in 'em. Would be a shame if newbs no longer get the chance, but I could certainly understand it if more established members decided to go that route. Just kind of a weird deal, here, it would seem.

I have someone that wants one of my 440s and I will pay them to take it to Word Finals from Charlotte, NC area. Please let me know, thanks Jack.
