Leading his team of warehouse crew, Willie has extensive knowledge of every single piece of equipment Tri-Point owns in it’s exceptionally large inventory of stock.

The Jonesys are on a mission to walk through the centre of Australia, on foot, off track, with their one year old daughter in tow. Together as a family, they attempt to cross some of Australia’s most extreme terrain and conditions in the hopes to live more consciously, forging a deeper connection to the Australian country, people and each other. Their mission is also helping to support the Western Desert Nganampa Walytja Palyantjaku Tjutaku, providing dialysis for Indigenous Australians.
Tri-Point Rigging Services, in collaboration with our in-house welder Tony Geros, sponsored the construction of the outback hauling cart for the family.
The Jonesys wrote a full blog post about the construction of the cart at Tri-Point. Read more about it here.
We love keeping up to date with the Jonesy’s journey through their website and social media channels. Check out www.thejonesys.com for more information or follow their instagram handle @followthejonesys

Job Title: 3D CAD Draftsman
My role at Tri-Point Rigging Services is…
Creating 3D Renders and Technical Drawings of Truss, Rigging, Scaffolding and Staging Systems.
When I was a kid I wanted to be…
I didn’t have big dreams when I was a kid but in the 90s I came across a video tape of a futuristic looking drawing program that could produce 3D images from green lines at the local library. It looked so cool I had to give it a shot.
The best advice I have ever been given is…
Don’t make decisions without eating first.
People often describe me as…
Well-read and really obnoxious about it.
My favourite movie of all time is…
Probably the Grand Budapest Hotel, or maybe Blade Runner 1982.

The Memphis Group, they invented the 80s.

I write a lot and I make a pretty mean calzone.
The three things I can’t live without are…
My wife, my whiteboard and the internet.
The strangest thing to happen on one of my projects…
I did some structural work on the elevator cores for Sydney Uni. A crane collapsed and fell right on top of our formwork! Luckily no one was around when it fell but there is a nice picture somewhere of a crane sticking though something I designed.
The worst thing to happen on one of my projects was…
I guess it was the time I was working in a team producing 20 tonnes of steel for a structural platform on an oil rig. It needed to be helicoptered in from shore. The steel didn’t meet their requirements so they dumped the entire load into the sea. Eek! They said it was cheaper to remake it than to helicopter it back… I would love to see there calculation on that one.
Sean has joined Tri-Point Rigging Services in our Drafting & Design Department, producing stunning 3D renders for our clients as well as technical construction drawings for engineering and construction. Sean brings a wealth of design and drafting experience to the company and we would like to take this opportunity to welcome him into the Tri-Point family!
