    It paid well. I wasn't thrilled when the driller would say "we're working another shift" and he was my ride home.

    Hello MrAllen421:
    So basically, looks like tongs = winch cable driven pipe wrenches?

    The should put first the lower tong and then the upper to avoid finger injuries.

    These guys are so bad at this, so unsafe. The guy who walks behind the spinner! No idea that if the snub line fails, he gets a spinner in the face

    What's the device called that they put around the pipe on floor level right before they start to add a section of pipe? Also, are the ends of the pipe section threaded? I assume they are the way they turn to remove and add a section of pipe. If they are threaded, how often do you cross thread? Seems like it'd be a risk.

    • @dallastymkiw1613

      That device is the pipe slips. It bites onto the pipe so when you unlatch the elevators the pipe doesnt go all the way down hole and get lost on ya

    • @bigbenorr

      The drill pipe is threaded on both ends, the threads are tapered and designed to start pretty easy, also they use dope (lubricant) so the threads make up smoothly. I have hardly ever seen a drill pipe connection cross thread.
