One of the cable racks leading to the firing/detonation area, these cables all seem to come from the old Coastguard's hut where I found the boxes on the wall labeled "Cliff Top Firing Cables" and "Beach Firing Cables".

The Half Dome Cable Route in Yosemite National Park, California, is an exhilarating and iconic hiking adventure. This trail leads intrepid hikers up the sheer granite face of Half Dome, utilizing a series of cables and wooden planks to navigate the final ascent. Known for its challenging terrain and breathtaking views, the Half Dome Cable Route offers a thrilling experience that rewards those who reach the summit with sweeping vistas of Yosemite Valley and beyond. This unique trek has become a bucket-list adventure for outdoor enthusiasts seeking an unforgettable challenge in one of America's most beloved national parks.
Powell-Hyde cars 1 and 28 meet at the north end of the line. 28 is sitting with two other cable cars waiting to be turned on the turntable.
Cable spinners are also know as cable lashers. A device which secures a cable (telephone, data, fiber optic, etc.) to a supporting steel cable on a utility pole (or telephone pole) by wrapping a steel wire or a plastic cord in spiral around the cable. I'll provide more details at a later date.

After I noticed the internet wasn't working and the blinky lights on the modem looked wrong, verified it wasn't the wireless router, and spent 22 minutes on the phone with customer service, we verified that there was no signal coming into the house. At this point I noticed a Comcast truck in the lot of our townhouse complex. I moseyed (mosied?) on over and found out that this here inch-thick-cable had been chopped off.
There was some construction work going on today, repaving the path that links our group of townhomes to the next one over. Looks like the result of a careless construction worker.
I was reassured that Comcast was on sight at the time. Missy said the internet had been working all afternoon, so it had to have just happened. All in all it took them about four hours to get it fixed.
Instrument changes at CFHT typically involve swapping out the top end of the telescope. In this case the f/8 secondary upper end has already been removed, and the Megacam prime focus camera upper end has been installed.
Once the upper end is installed on the telescope it must be cabled and plumbed, powered up, and checked out for use on the sky. Here two of my co-workers are installing the final cables before moving raound to the other side to install the helium and glycol lines.
Driving crane is one of my favorite jobs at work. We use a 1-ton hoist to move our man baskets, but the crane also has two 6-ton hoists that are used in tandem to lift loads up to 12 tons.
We routinely use the cranes at work to do heavy lifting and man basket work, and at times we use them for more delicate tasks, such as assembling instruments. In the case of Megacam, the parts are all pinned, which ensures alignment to better than 0.001". With a crane. Now THAT's just plain fun.
You'll never see a sysadmin more at home than when he's digging through a tangled briar patch of network cable, and this data center has more than enough CAT5 (or "funny thread", as it's called in the biz) to keep even the most enthusiastic cable-arranger entertained for hours.
On its last visit to Antwerp, the MOL Beyond is loading, amongst others, these 20ft flatracks with 25 ton cable reels, destined for South East Asia.
The MOL Beyond came in from Laem Chabang, Vung Tau, Singapore Colombo to Rotterdam, Hamburg, Antwerp, London Gateway and will sail out to Jeddah, Colombo, Singapore, Laem Chabang and Vung Tau. It will then change serciices and call on Keelung, Hong Kong, Yantian, Shanghai, Ningbo, Busan, Manzanillo, Lazaro Cardenas, Callao, Iquiqe, Antofagasta, San Antonio, Coronel, Valparaiso and back to Keelung. It will therefore not return to Antwerp

Ngong Ping Cable Car is a 25 minute, 5.7km bi-cable ropeway beginning at Tung Chung, crossing Tung Chung Bay to reach the angle station on Airport Island and turning about 60 degrees in the air towards North Lantau. Visitors will enjoy some of the best views: vistas of the South China Sea, the rolling grassland slopes of North Lantau Country Park, a panorama of Hong Kong International Airport, view of the mountainous terrain of Lantau Island, Tian Tan Buddha (Big Buddha) and the 360-degree view of the Ngong Ping Plateau.
The Ngoong Ping Cable Car is how most people get to Po Lin Monastery and Big Buddha. At the end of the ride is Ngong Ping Village, built as a receiving point for the cable cars. It is not an authentic village, but an outdoor shopping area especially for tourists who come to Lantau Island to see the Big Buddha and the Po Lin Monastery.
The other way to get to the top is the Ngong Ping Trail connecting Tung Chung and Ngong Ping. The trail is used as the access for maintenance and rescue, with much of it directly under the path of the cable cars. After visiting Tian Tan Buddha and Po Lin Monastery some visitors like to do the 3-hour hike downhill towards Tung Chung.
This is not only the museum, but also one end of the line for all four lines and the place where the machinery to pull the cables is housed. Unfortunately: the line we needed to take was broken and it took a while to get here. Fortunately: the line we needed to take was broken and once we arrived, we could watch them fixing it! It looked like the cable had frayed, so they were twisting a new piece of wire into place around the cable and pounding it down flat with mallets. You can see them working on it and you can also see that the Mason wheels are stopped and the cable is slack. We watched them stretch out the cable and repair it, then lift it back into place on the wheels, draw it tight, and get it running again. :-)
Machinery is not reeeally my thing - only a little - but the cable car system is SO COOL. Because I am NOT an engineer I didn't really get it just by reading the info in the museum and looking at the pieces, but it was interesting enough that now I kind of want to read a book about it. Down below this work floor is yet another level, with more wheels set at angles and cables that ultimately run out in four different directions. Some of the lines turn corners...it's all pretty incredible.
