A couple of stories from my past Employers that required either steel toed shoes OR Fiberglass / steel toe caps be worn at all times in the shop..... We had one assembler that habitually left his work boots at the GF's place, and he would come to work in sneakers. He always got caught early by the boss and told to put those bright yellow toe caps on for the day. He would adjust the retainer straps loose; the bottom corners of the caps would spank the concrete floor at every step. Sounded like a tap dancer on the old Ted Mack Amateur Hour show!!! Last job had a similar rule when an Employee at a Sister Plant got a foot injury while not wearing protective shoes...... We had a Design Engineer, wearing dress shoes, that had to answer a question in the Machine Shop. First, he had to don a pair of those toe caps. There was no place to sit to put them on; while doing so, he slipped while on one foot, fell and threw out his back! He left on a stretcher; he got injured on the job while putting on mandated PPE!!!! Next day, there was a small bench added - or you could trip over it !! 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tractorhead 9,064 #37 Posted March 6 I like it. It is a great decoration in the Shop - what maybe nobody others have. I see lot‘s of cutted cars outside a shop mounted, that looked it crashed through the Wall outside but i never see somwhere else any Tractor on the Ceiling. A perfect fit would be a paint spurs of the rear tyres thru the Horsie..... - just an idea 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
