Gerardo Ruano
Colonial Heights,VA
Summary
Capable of a handful of skills mainly in machine operations like drilling holes in different types of metals ranging from steel to aluminum bronze castings.
Sandblasting was needed most times since most parts were so big we could only work like four 2 ton pieces at a time so anything else was left to the elements.
Crane lifts and fork truck usage was needed to flip parts onto there side for either cleaning or assembly of all parts over 80 pounds
