Impressed by a Use That Goes Beyond My Expectations | Slope Specialists

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

I saw this on Twitter the other day!

Drilling for Drainage

Use of bolt scales in dewatering drilling.

I'm really happy to see everyone using it in such creative and innovative ways.

Thank you.

 

And since you’ve gone to the trouble of showing me how to use it this way, I’m thinking of making a scale for drainage drilling too, lol.

 

It seems people are using it in all sorts of ways—more than I expected—and I think that's really interesting.

Furthermore, they are often used for purposes other than rock bolts and appear to be used at construction sites and in the railway industry as well.

 

It was originally developed as a jig for measuring placement errors in rock bolting (rebar insertion work), but I can’t believe it’s being used for something else (off-label use!!?)

It's great, isn't it? As a developer.

 

I want to keep creating products like this—the kind that make people ask, “Why didn’t this exist before?”

Making things is really fun.

All my wisdom, ideas, and insights come from the field, lol.

Being on set really is the best.

 

But lately, I’ve been getting called out to job sites unexpectedly from my desk job a lot, so my daily step count suddenly jumps from about 500 to around 10,000, which is really tough lol.

This pain lasts for about a week, and just when I'm getting used to it, it's time to switch with someone else lol.

There seems to be a trend of people just pushing themselves too hard.

 

It’s gradually getting colder, so let’s all be careful.

 

See you later
