360 Hours Summer Quarter

Compressor was a 16" diameter will be a 18". Ingersell Rand came in Oklahoma to bore out and complete. I have been working with them and also working on a Ingersell Rand engine which had problems with the bearings and we had to tear out the compressor rod. We ran into trouble trying to find the right bearings for it because of the age of the engine (1966). I have also been working on the gas pipping system to prepare for Dunkin and Busch to paint. Also, I worked on the coolers for the Mars Turbins which had vibrations and squeling which we changed. Previously we had Solar come in and try to analyze more vibrations in a turbine. I helped them align the shafts. In my spare time my son and I are tearing apart a 1989 Ford Ranger. All in all this summer has flown by and been very educational. I owe so much to Williams for all they have invested in me and taught me. I possibly will be able to return to Williams after my trip to Denmark. Hope everyone is having a wonderful, learning and enjoyable summer. ~Soto
