So the background do you know where Im coming from...
Being a paramedic in my "real" job, I have a general knowledge of medicine... I also do not work 911- I started there many years ago... but evolved into an interfacility transport guy (Im the dude who picks up from the ICU or Cath Lab at small hospitals and takes you to the big hospitals). So I am exposed to a large number of hospitals and other specialty care medicine centers.
I have been engaged by a friend in a local facility to come up with a solution for a problem their hyperbaric chamber has- replacing a plastic pin for IV lines that goes through the chamber wall.
I have the idea- I have a wooden proof of concept, I have the specs and even the materials.... BUT- I lack the machining equipment to make this happen.
It is a tight tolerance , involves O-ring seals, and a wierd 6% (not 6 deg) taper...
Anyone have a few minutes to chat and get a chuckle out of the naieve chutzpah of the dreamer?
Thanks for reading and I hope all are enjoying the weekend!
