"What's That?" Contest 7/6/13

[Go Go Diablo]

Summer is always such a slow time of year for people to be posting things on the forum. However, I see you all looking everyday, so even though you are not posting, thanks for visiting.

I have a little contest for you during these hot summer days.

Below is a tool I am making to help with restorations. The contest is to tell me what it is for. Send your guesses to bruce@gogodiablo.com and at the end of July, I'll pick a name from those who guessed right and send them a little prize. Multiple guesses is acceptable.

Thanks in advance for playing.

Based on a few of the guesses I have received, it seems it is time for a hint.

The tool relates to a previous post I made within the last month.

Hope that helps

Hi Bruce, I showed it to Sherry and asked her if she noticed it being used for something when we were at your place picking up the Diablo. She said she didn't but she thinks it is "Go Go Diablo" art.

Art it might be Andy, but it's certainly not "state of the art".

Contest runs till the end of the month. Get your guesses in before then!

Good job all. We have a handful of correct guesses so far. Any body else want to chime in? Shoot me an email.

The end of July has come and gone and we have a winner. Bobby W from Morewood, Ontario won the contest. In addition to Bobby, there were four others that managed to guess correct. They were Mike L from Milford - New Hampshire, Dan K from Houghton - Michigan, Roy T from Gatineau - Quebec, and Andy D from Markdale - Ontario. Good job ya all.

The correct answer was a rotisserie for cleaning Diablo tanks. One of the hardest parts of installing protective liners in tanks is to get them clean. In the past, I put rocks and chains in the tanks with detergent and shake, shake and shake till my arms are ready to fall off. This rotisserie allows setting two tanks in one direction and two more tanks in the opposite direction. Rotating a tank in different positions ensures all the internals of the tank get plenty of cleaning action.

Sealing 13 tanks at once. Half way done. I seal the inside and then the outside.

I'd have to say that Bruce has become quite the engineer since taking up this passion for the Diablo. Thats "Thinking smarter, not harder!"
