NEW Custom Fire Service Tool's
Tim_w:
Hello All
Here are a few pictures of some more custom fire fighting equipment. Most of the tools shown here are geared towards non fire related rescues and are part of the large selection of equipment on my custom built Rescue Tender http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=694.0.
Here is the first picture which shows the new vibrating saw. In real life it would most probably be powered by battery or a generator, but could also be powered by air. The blade vibrates quite fast in a backwards and forwards motion cutting out the hard work of sawing as all the operator has to do is hold it in place and guide its progress.

Here is a picture showing the improved hand pump. This peice of equipment is used to raise or lower bottle jacks or operate small cutting tools. The advantage of a hand pump is that you can carefully control its operation.
This next picture shows a set of pedal cutters which are operated using of the hand pump. They are mainly used to remove the pedals from cars if they are trapping a persons feet. They are compact and can be used in confined spaces.

This picture shows a set of blocks which are used as packing to fill in spaces whilst lifting or jacking heavy items.

This is a specialist peice of equipment which is used for water rescues called a hose air inflation kit. It allows a length of fire fighting hose to be filled with air from a standard BA (Breathing Apperatus) cylinder. Once it has been inflated it can be put into the water to form a float to help a person back to dry land.
The second picture shows the plug which firts into the end to stop the air escaping.

This picture shows the special supports which have been designed to stabilise a car when it is resting on its side. They come in two parts, the first part slides underneath the car to stabilise it whilst the support stops it falling over.
