Cosa tratta questo video
Damien and the crew of the former fishing trawler *Brupeg* cut a 1.4-meter by 0.75-meter hole in the deck to install a new generator in the engine room.5:24 To prepare the space, they relocated a heavy "get home" motor using chain blocks and custom-fabricated lifting hooks made with a plasma cutter.6:18 They used a Unimig plasma cutter to slice through the 6mm steel deck, employing a plywood straight edge secured by heavy starter motors as a guide.14:55 To minimize debris in the engine room, they placed a water-filled bucket beneath the cut to catch sparks and molten metal.13:49 During the process, the deck sagged after a structural member was removed, requiring the crew to weld a lifting point to the panel to pry it free.17:14 The team plans to lower the generator to fabricate custom mounts before removing it again for final painting and installation.25:54 A donated welding rotator will assist with subsequent exhaust and water pipe fabrication.10:44
