Hi guys just thought I would share this. I went to a site today and I couldn't believe my eyes when The scaffold that need to be stripped was put up with swivelles not doubles. Hahaha I had to laugh, some Bristol fella put it up.
What's the world coming to.

You may laugh but harsco are just doing a hanger that follows the curve of the roof. Apparently a one in twelve gradient. They would have to put the ledgers on swivels or else have the droppers out of plumb.

You just cant please some folk , lads unloaded the lorry for you as well :rolleyes:
 
Reminds of a time I had to strike a really sh!t job, to my horror all the ledgers were on swivels rather than doubles. So being very careful I undid the swivels, keeping hold of the ledger so it didn't come out, and as I undid the last swivel, rather than the ledger going, the fecking puncheon did! He hadn't bothered to do the thing up! The puncheon was held up by a ledger on a swivel! And I got in trouble for that......
