Hell no, lol... iunno roughly up to 17's haven't tested on bigger rim/tire set, not sure if handles/material will hold the weight, and most ppl won't carry 18's with just a handle.

Sorry, so yea, for passenger car tires and non custom sizes, for now.

[uptown.]

anyone working on that new building on SAIT campus has my vote

oh they are for transfering tires ok i didnt know that i thought it was just for storage. my "tractor red neck rims" are sitting in my garage out in the open all winter long if you can make some bigger ones for storage id buy a set neat idea, kinda like a car cover

I'd enter (as a land surveyor) but I know some oil patch dude from Fort MacKay will win this.

I'll submit a few photos..working for Cord WorleyParsons as a welding
apprentice//helper...on Devon Jackfish II in Conklin, Alberta!!

wtf is that hls.. never heard of one?

[Ymerej472008]

Its a Hot Lime Softener...Im not 100% on how it works "exactly" but
its similar to what the city would use to "soften" water..this one is the
biggest design, another contractor (TIW) built it on site and we did all
the tie-ins into it..ranging from 2" Sch.40 to 24" Sch.40. When it got
hydro-tested pressure at the top of the vessel was atmospheric and
pressure at the "cone" was only 19psi!!! iirc it held over 2million L of glycol!!

I make trips up to the North Slope, no pics though

It's honestly the worst cold I have ever felt in my life; a 100 foot walk from the camp to the rig feels like miles and the wind rips right through anything you wear.

The average temp while I was on location last winter was around -55 to -60...it's not right, not right at all haha.

I also have a fantastic story about trying to escape Alaska while Mt. Redoubt was erupting, but I will save that for another time.

No kidding. While I was a land surveyor I worked a few days up north. When you are outside for a constant 12 hours, holding onto a metal pole, Unable to wear gloves because then you can't write legibly. That sucks. And the best part, no hills, no trees in sight for cover.. Just open fields... Pure northern arctic windchill. I don't think I've ever been so cold in my life.

Ouch, feel for you man... I'd say you're up there... Unless we get some ice truckers, seal clubbers, etc... I wanna see someone working up top at the BOW, with windchill.

- And your job don't have to be in Calgary... just trying to keep it a local contest, so as long as you're a Calgary RESIDENT (or have family here, or some sort of ties in Calgary)

Yep, just submit some pics, describe the job you do (that makes your job the COLDEST), etc... If people "feel" for you, they'll vote.
