Looking good. Is there still a lot of work left? Any major issues?

Looking good. Is there still a lot of work left? Any major issues?

Yes, there is.  We have a list of specifics for each machine as well as regular oil changes, full wheel bearing service /  replacement as necessary.  If you look in the pictures, you will see how many wheels there are on each set of tracks.  Quite a few bearings to do.  Each set has to be removed, cleaned, inspected, repacked and reinstalled.

As well, there are some major projects to be done on the groomers.

 

One drag is in the process of being repaired, another has a number of welded areas that have cracks that need to be cleaned, rewelded, and gussets installed to strengthen them.

 

We have some talented volunteers for the 'specialty' work but more hands are always welcome to share the load.  We had a good time last night and made some real progress.

 

Hope to see more people out next week.

You guys are very fortunate to have a facility like this 

Yes, we are.  We get a very reasonable rent from the township and have a good working relationship with them.

Didn't realize until I googled it but Lamtrac are made in New Brunswick.

That's pretty cool.

We will be back at it tomorrow night.  More volunteers are always welcome.

 

Also, a few of us also get together all day most Fridays to accomplish a few more tasks.  The club buys lunch, usually pizza or bbq something or other on a bun.  Anyone who has a Friday free is more than welcome.

 

Hope to see some new faces.
