I've been in the crane industry for about 12 years now, now a Cal OSHA Mobile Crane Surveyor. My father was a crane inspector himself for about 20 years and I have always been intrigued into the crane industry for as long as i can remember. Have a number of years operating Derrick type well pump rigs to pulling apart mobile truck crane booms apart to repack cylinders and or replace extension/retract cables.
