    OT Quiz - Guess what we are building.

    Got a new very cool job. I am doing mostly electronics with some fab. OK 10 points to anyone who can guess what this monster is and what it is designed to do.

            On second look!!! Is that a gas turbine for a power unit? Defiantly points for that.

              Wow Duffy that was fast and right on. Rebuilt and converted turbine 3500+HP on diesel.

              Got a few other toys get built around the shop.

                  Are those the pumps used to pump our own oil so we can tell the mid east to piss up a rope?

                      hydraulic pump used in the oil industry. That is a very expensive pump sitting there. Either a frac or cement pump.

                          Looks like a drilling mud pump for remote locations.
