This is a model for a pick show before the actual pick. There are several steps to do before you can begin. First we must know the physical weight of the object we are trying to pick. This model was about 300 lbs. The next step is to measure the radius to the center of where we are going to place the pick.

We must then calculate if we are able to make the pick. Reading the label on the rig strap will tell us another important calculation which we must factor in.

After the calculation, we can make the pick by far. So we attach the tag line to the bottom. Greg and Rusty are overseeing that this process is being done correctly.

Using the OSHA list of hand signals, we are able to hoist the object and begin to place it in the right position. This hand signal is "boom out".

Spectra I.S. "The Future"

With this new equipment, the past days of staking points and point generation are long gone. Now drawings will be sent straight to the site and the owner instantly. Not only that, but graders will be able to automatically adjust to the exact grading needed on a specific area of soil. Less work for the grader and just as accurate. Spectra I.S. is the future.
