Destruction Day
June 3rd, 2005Even though my job is boring and sux balls twice a year its the most fun you can have. Destruction day!!!
Everything that I make has a destruction point, and it has to be tested. Thats where the fun begins.
Now some things arnt much of a challenge. Some parts just require putting in the press and applying force. Some more than others. But the most fun of all are the tow balls. Our tow balls have a 3500kg rating. This means that they have to withstand double that for 2 seconds to pass. That means that i get to apply at least 7000kg of pressure to the poor little tow ball. It normally takes around the 100000kg to get them to break. And when it happens you know about it.
So that was my night at work. Throwing things, smashing stuff with hammers, and generally breaking stuff.
