What are some of your most challenging installations you've been on?

Being in the industry for nearly 20 years, I have no doubt in my mind this is an impossible installation. Nonetheless, it is a cool rendering. Keep an eye out for more.

a couple pilings drivin into the riverbed and you can mount that. Nothing is impossible if you have deep pockets

How true...

As it's shown, it's a Jesus installation.

When I was working for an organization in Orlando, FL back in 1999 or 2000, I recall doing an installation that was half in a retention pond. What a muddy mess. My coworker got the bob-cat stuck, a sub we used to do the footing in the pond fell in, and I lost 2 Klein screwdrivers. Also dropped my 14.4 Dewalt hammer drill twice, fully submerged, killing two batteries. Not the best drill motor, but at the time it was versatile enough to do a lot of things.

Still got that old dewalt on the far right of the shelf. Older unbalanced grip ... rarely ever use it these days along with the 2 other dewalts up there. Ryobi and Rigid took the role my Dewalt gear held about 2 years ago.

Not sure if that's the most challenging install I've been on, but ranks high in the most frustrating. Stepping in a fire ant pile wasn't too pleasant either.

How about you? What's the most challenging installation you've been on.

Plan plan plan and plan for the hard ones is all I can say. One day I want to put my own sign right out there on beach front property! :sprt (41): One can dream.

Haven't had any real difficult installations, but I do HATE installing on corrugated sheet metal.
