THE CREW STARTED REPAIRING THE DRUM, BURNING ALL THE FILTES OFF, THEN STARTED TO CUT BOLTS OFF OF THE ANGLES THAT HOLD DOWN THE FLOOR PLATES. THEY DISCOVERED THAT THEY WERE LOOSE AND ONE CAME OUT, SO THEY LEFT THAT ONE OUT WHILE THEY WERE INSTALLING NEW ANGLES AS THEY ROTATED THE DRUM. THE LEFT TOW LOOSE ENDS OF FLOOR PLATE. THEY MUST HAVE LOST TRACK OF THEM AS THEY CAME AROUND IN
