Still & Box at 12300 S. Michigan Ave. 2-21-2013

This message is from Dennis McGuire, Jr.

This afternoon, Engine Co. 62 responded to a one-story auto repair shop on fire with flames coming through the roof. Once crews entered the building, the 22nd Battalion requested a Still and Box alarm. The fire was quickly brought under control, but there was a significant amount of overhaul and salvage work needed after the flames were extinguished.

More from Dan McInerney:

Here are some pictures from the still and box at 12300 S. Michigan Thursday afternoon. They had a fire in a one-story vacant autobody shop. It looks like it may have started in the garage and then spread into the cockloft, eventually going through the roof. Squad 5 was on a still in the high rise on 41st St., and the 22nd wanted an elevated stream, which he didn’t have on the still, so he boxed it to get a tower ladder. E115 and E75 each had a 2.5-inch line and made quick work of the fire. Neither TL34 nor Squad 5 (who eventually arrived from 41st St.) used their platforms. There was a lot of overhaul afterward, and the 22nd Battalion asked for an EFAO to notify the Building Department that this was a vacant and open building.

Custom Rapid Prototyping

Product modeling and design ability has been greatly improved, but after the completion of product design, before mass production, we must make samples to express the design idea, quickly obtain the feedback information of product design, and evaluate and demonstrate the feasibility of product design. In today's increasingly fierce market competition, time is benefit. In order to improve the competitiveness of the product market, the whole process from product development to mass production is urgently required to reduce the cost and improve the speed. The emergence of rapid prototyping technology provides an effective way to solve this problem, and has attracted much attention at home and abroad
