Hva denne videoen dekker
To complete the davit system on the 10-year rebuild of the fishing trawler Brupeg, the crew fabricates stainless steel bracing and installs custom lifting points on the dinghy.0:10 To prevent structural twisting, they weld 25mm by 3mm 304 stainless flat bar as tension-based gussets between the davit beam and the vessel's roof.2:24 The team also welds four aluminum lifting tags to the dinghy’s hull, using an AC TIG welder with a 2.4mm electrode to ensure a secure, self-leveling lift.11:05 After addressing a loose five-pin plug in the TIG torch, the crew splices Dyneema lines to connect the dinghy to the davit pulleys, using a custom fid to create a secure, knotless connection finished with UV-resistant covers and industrial stitching.5:15 The project concludes with the identification of coolant leaks in the generator’s piping, which show signs of corrosion after 260 hours of operation.29:06 Proper tension-based bracing and precise aluminum welding are essential for creating a stable, self-leveling dinghy lifting system.
