SKILLS

Extensive training on mining roadheaders with varying weights from 22 to 85 tons. These machine would have to be stripped down to smaller pieces, be transported in or out of the mine and then reassembled. Many of the machines I would have to refit after heavy use and abuse underground. The mining machines have given me experience with a wide range of types of machinery as they come from all over the world.
