All three of these vendors do mostly custom and semi-custom builds so if you have the money to spend you can get your truck and RV body configured any way you want, the only limits are the size of your wallet and 80,000 GCVW.
I recently saw a couple of these with matching trailers! Renegades, I think. They looked really really expensive.

They only cost 6 dollars.

Bobcat uses the same key for everything they build, you can go down to the bobcat dealer and buy a key for 6 dollars, and then go find one of your own.

I will adopt a stray Bobcat and dig trenches in my neighbors' backyards while they shower me in cash.

Trimming is disposable but the pressure vessel remains and is the soul of what folks would call "the boiler"

We mostly started making steam pressure vessels hold up to dumb poo poo like running creek water into your feed because you never know so short of sending water into a dry hot boiler the pressure vessels probably going to outlive anybody working on it.

Powershift posted:

If boilers turned all the water that went into them to steam, it would constantly build up minerals boiled out of it on the inside of the boiler.

They dump a portion of it as extremely hot water to flush the water impurities out. that water is so hot, it almost instantly turns to steam.

It's basically, don't hang around the death tube if you don't have to. make sure nobody is around the death tube when you open it.

The water in the oilfield is usually just sucked straight out of rivers or creeks, so often has a bunch of bonus goo in it.

modern boilers have cooldown tanks and everything so people don't loose like, skin and flesh and stuff.

The first apartment my wife and I lived in had steam heat, and we (I) was required to do basic upkeep for a much cheaper rent (fixing switches, outlets, etc.). One of the tasks was blowing down the boiler once a week. It was 3 floors down in the basement, and if you forgot, it would gently remind you at 3am on a Sunday morning (usually after a Saturday night of partying) by causing the radiators in our apartment to erupt in song. We're talking the "anvil chorus" here. I'd haul my hungover butt down to the basement (half dressed usually) and drain about 5 gallons of rusty, sulphur-y crap water into the floor drain and verify by the water glass that it had auto-refilled. The system would finally shut up at that point, and then I could grab another couple hours of sleep. At least it was a smart boiler, it wouldn't allow a blowdown if it was currently firing.

I've always wondered how a steel mill or similar facility cleans up a spill like that. How do you get hardened steel puddles off the floor and ceiling once they've cooled to room temperature?

Well, either heat them up and scrape them off..or dump more hot steel on the floor and make it level thus creating a new floor.

I saw a documentary on a chocolate factory once, and let me tell you this, their safety standards are almost criminally substandard.

Their labor policies leave something to be desired as well.
