I spent most of my apprenticeship as an Ironworker (local 736 of course!) working there. My highlight there was definitely building the newest ore bridge with Canron in 1999….💪🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I appreciate your comments concerning safety! Fabricators should do everything they can to prevent fume inhalation, yet I see hood after hood enveloped in fumes. Why can't they just use NIOSH masks?
Because most of the Machine Operators, oversee 99% of the Steel Fabrication inside of filtered air Control Booths. I worked ~ 15 years in the Cold Mill, and there was NEVER an accident, on my Shift. All employees (and especially visitors) were mandated to follow safety. Hard Hats, never by-passing Yellow Safety Tape, cert work boots, proper clothing, no jewelry, and (in some cases) Chemical and Gas sensors.
Those coil carriers don`t exist anymore, I used to drive them steady and they retired them and cut them into pieces, now they use tractors with rams equipped and carry one at a time.
***** Well that sounds like a normal day in Material Handling to me LOL glad I don't work in that god forsaken death/cancer trap anymore!. I bet I even know where it happened too. Perimeter road most likely that was Todd Abbotts stupid idea the way it`s set up now.

The Caster that you are seeing at 2:43 is number 2 Caster which is part of the EAF stream. #1 Caster is a two strand Caster

***** In Cleveland we use the large tractors with the big boom on the front. We call them "Big Dik's"
Actually they are Palings now, Kress made the C-techs, and I was talking about servicing the ramps at no2 Hotmill.

***** Simply called tractors a glorified forklift with a ram I drove em the whole time I worked there when I was not on the crane.
