Tunnel

Guest
This is a building sewer that runs through a tunnel for 16'. At the other end it is 7' below grade. They did it with a pail and a rope. When I asked them if they were worried about a cave-in they said they tied a rope around the man digging the tunnel. I made them fill it in with slurry.

I was expecting to see some dude's head peeking out from the hole with a callout reading "¿Estados Unidos?".

tigerloose - You're having a hell of a week, aren't you? The rope was to ensure a humane and timely end in the event of a collapse... :shock:
