Rigging and Lifting

I'm a little behind in my blog posts, this is from a few weeks ago.

I learned how to safely rig and lifts loads of various weights and sizes, and how to place rigging so load is balanced. I also learned how to find weights of materials, how to closely calculate weights of unusually shaped objects, and specific weights of engines. As a group we rigged and lifted 2 engines, a forklift mast w/forks attached, a concrete block, and a partial semi tractor.
