We still have some open wire around and old lead cable. Wiping lead was an art. It's amazing how far the tech has advanced since I hired.

There very little open wire left here.
Removing lead cable now is a "Dangerous Goods" item, must wear disposable covederalls and mask and spray the cable down so there is no lead dust. also alot of people dont realize lead cable with paper insulation contains arsenic to stop rodents.

Always thought it would be fun to learn to climb.

I enjoyed it, in BC we havee nice cedar poles , nice to climb. They let me take my gear when I retired. 80ft stick is the biggest I went up.

Never ran a Man Roland. Heidelberg, Komori, and Mitsubishi here. The speedmasters will always be my favorite. It's funny, as much as I hated the trade while I was in it, sometimes I miss it. I don't miss working second or third shift though that's for sure.
