Brunel Swivel Bridge Project Photos March 2022

We got our seasonal bridge-painting off to a good start when John removed a heavy encrustation of rust from the long angle iron riveted on to strengthen the Bridge after a ship damaged it.
He then painted it with a special yellow metal primer and we'll continue this work in April.

Our 'gardening guru' Chris worked wonders with his petrol strimmer, so that the east end of the Tongue (Island) is now neater than it has ever been!.
The 'greasy gang' continued to wrestle with the misalignments of the southern hydraulic ram. whilst Peter videoed all our activities.

We welcomed Charlie back from university where he is doing well on his Navigation & Maritime Science degree.
In this photo he is not laying down on the job, but trying to move a piece of equipment from an impossible location
