Title: Trump Tower pics taken by the crane operator
Post by: NvrSummer on December 17, 2008, 08:33:39 AM
I'm in construction, so I thought these were pretty cool.  Definitely some amazing pics, even if you aren't partial to the construction portion..

Enjoy...

Some pretty fantastic shots in there.  The shots in /above the clouds give a new perspective on things.

Watch out for #85 though... Crack kills.

Cool pics. That dude has too much free time though...like most crane operators.  ;)

Someone should start a construction porn thread. I have a bunch of cool pics.  [thumbsup]

Most of my pictures would be in basements. If I get some decent ones from up high, I'll toss them up here.

Man, they're really moving on that tower!  I was out there a year ago today with Mrs. TJR178 and those pics make me miss Chicago.  I love that town.

Putting aside that the guy craps in a bucket when he has to go, he's took some very cool pics!

Not at all.  I've had several tower cranes on my job sites and every operator I've had has sat in the cab of the crane and watched DVD porn all day when he wasn't making picks (no joke).  OK, I take that back, I did have one that when he would take his breaks would go and sun tan in his underwear on top of the counter weights.  So I give kudos to the guy for having an artistic eye!  My point, while not very clear, was most of those operators are a bit different.....

I think you'd have to be to take on sitting that high up looking down all the time to do your job.  Granted I love being in high places, and have often entertained how much fun it would be to be one of those folks that worked way up high on cell towers and such ~

Oh. Sorry to misunderstand.

Yeah...

you'd have to be a  'little different' to do that.

Ditto for all of my jobsites.  I still think it'd be fun to be an operator for a little while though.  They also usually have a great selection of car/moto/pron mags in there as well, you know, in case you need a little reading material for the blue room.
