Given that this is an Australian forum, and people might have some equipment, https://slashdot.org/story/23/01/28/0123235/missing-radioactive-capsule-sparks-urgent-health-alert-in-western-australia Never thought I would see ROTLD 2 come to life |

:-DD :-DD The article has a bit of a Simpsons vibe. A 6mm x 8mm capsule falling of a truck through a bolt hole. :palm: |

needs lockwire, or a cotter pin. Why do I have a feeling the wheels of trolly cart are better secured then radioactive material? they should also put a flange on it, so its not tiny. IDK What they were thinking. A square flange would prevent it from rolling. And it should be placed so that if a bolt falls out, it would need to over come gravity. Why is it capable of falling out? I guess messing with the shape makes it easier to breach or misuse/pry/force. But seriously, cotter pin, lock wire, gravity. Radioactive materials are a dismal problem. Transport fixture where its upside down during transport. |
