Look at this 15' monster they harvested in Okeechobee Florida. It was eating cattle and had to be hunted.

So today i had to make saw cuts for an opening in a block wall. Wet cutting. Next to this. I side the cage. WET cutting. The electrician just kinda chuckled when i asked about it before we went in. He said it won't hurt. Be dead before i feel it.
Reassuring. ..
 
Does 4150 volts only merit a CAUTION sign? Oddly specific, and scary, signage!
 
And there wasn't just one transformer... the whole room was transformers on the other side of that wall!
They make glass bottles and I believe they need the high voltage to melt and form the components to make the glass.
Either way... if I don't post after today at 3 oclock you know why!

Yeah, you probably wouldn't feel it. This is my favorite sign at work.

Glad to see you have a pro handling the fireworks @Speedling?

That's Braxton. He's awesome. We call him "baby B" and he probably doesn't know his name. I cut a piece of fuse he says "Cut it?" I ask him for a zip tie he says " ip tie?"
As my youngest, he's allowed to get away with things..... like not wearing shoes in the garage. He's one of those types of people that's about as chill and relaxed as you can imagine, and yet has a great personality that gets excited about anything!
In any case, the fireworks are for a wedding shoot this weekend for a friend of mine. If I can, I"ll get a video of it for you guys too, but I only wire a few things together and manually start each one so that there is NO ERRORS.
Everything glued together and down onto the plywood so it can't tip. Artillery tubes screwed down to the board with plywood stabalizers screwed in.
I take the safety seriously!

Awesome!
Nothing more precious in the world than that. I think most guys could care less about their weddings compared to spending time with their own kids. Maybe not baby stage but by the time they are two it's like game on for fun! Many blessings to you 3!
