  • We got contacted by a manufacturer to go out on Lockhart Basin and get one of their over landing trailers that had snapped a spindle. They had a new spindle for us to install but with it having already snapped one we didn't want to chance pulling it out and having another issue. So we went in with the recovery trailer and hauled it back out. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

    Mike, please ask more of the "What's going through your mind when..." type questions, giving Rory the chance to explain what must seem mundane to him but counts as revelation for some of us.
