Dos and Donts
--Many moons ago I remember something my old boss said about things
he refused to work on. They included rotorcraft and some other stuff that were just too liability-prone for a small shop to attempt. There was maybe a 'big four' to be avoided. Can any of you lot remember the other three? --Reason for asking: insurance company wants it displayed on my website, sigh... -- "Steamboat Ed" Haas : Blue Cross socks us Hacking the Trailing Edge! : $23,000/yr!! ... www.nmpproducts.com ---Decks a-wash in a sea of words--- |

Well, the insurance company should know what bothers THEM, shouldn't they? Make them tell you...of course they might start with boilers and kinda run your boating. Perhaps: Medical devices. Submarines with people in them. Killing cameras is OK. -- Cats, coffee, chocolate...vices to live by |

Submarines with people in them. Killing cameras is OK. A friend of mine worked on subs for the Navy in New London, CT. He said there were two rules: 1) Keep the water out of the people tank. 2) What goes down must come up. Doug White |

Can any of you lot remember the other three? --Reason for asking: insurance company wants it displayed on my website I had a guy show up one day with a part from a medium size Ferris wheel (about 20' he said "kiddy size"). It was a previously welded cast aluminum hub assembly that had fractured again. I said no, he offered to make it worth my time, I said no again, he got upset, I said no again and chased him away. I think about this every time I go to the fair and see the carney run rides. I don't know if amusement rides or roller coasters is on the list but I would add them. Andrew |
