Boiler sounds so old fashioned.
We just call our boiler shop 'The weld shop' real original, haha.
Do you guys do underground mining overhauls?
Are those the only three departments you have?

We have:
-Stores.
-Heavy plant (Split, underground/overground).
-Small plant.
-Weld.
-Road trucks.
-Machine shop.
-Hydraulics.

We hire equipment out so we over haul what ever the bosses buy
we work in a giant shed 120 m wide 150 m long 40 m tall
Split into 9 bays

The fitter workshop handles stripping rebuilds and components
Our line bougher operates in our shop
as do the auto sparkys
We dont do service calls so we have no service vehicles
And we call in a contractor to make our hoses

We do a lot of saftey fitting as the indo and USA stuff have very low standards

We do mostly 789 cat trucks d10 dozers and PC1200 series excavators

Westrac is only 2 km down the road so making our own parts is not needed

Not here, it ain't! Boilermaker (beer cocktail)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A boilermaker is a beer cocktail consisting of a glass of beer and a shot of whisky,[1] tequila, or vodka. The beer is either served as a chaser or is mixed with the liquor. When the beer is served as a chaser, the drink is often called simply a shot and a beer or a beer and a bump.
In the United Kingdom, a boilermaker is a shot of bourbon or rye whiskey dropped into a glass of English pale ale.[2]

Drinking

There are a number of ways to drink a boilermaker:
Traditionally, the liquor is imbibed in a single gulp and is chased by the beer, which is sipped or imbibed normally.[3][4]
The liquor and beer may be mixed by pouring or dropping the shot into the beer. The mixture may be stirred, if desired.[3] If the shot is dropped in, the drink is known as a depth charge.
The liquor may be poured directly into an open beer bottle or can after removing some of the beer.

Wikipedia:-
'A boilermaker is a trained craftsman who produces steel fabrications from plates and sections. The name originated from craftsmen who would fabricate boilers, but they may work on projects as diverse as bridges to blast furnaces to the construction of mining equipment.'
