It appears that voragh believes that the poster shows a crane-line  
device and gives us the term {tep jolpat} and assumes that the term  
refers to the crane-like device. ghunchu'wI' feels uncomfortable  
making that assumption, since the term could well refer to a  
transporter pad near the crane-like device. He points out that the  
crane-like device doesn't have any arrows pointing to it labeling it  
as {tep jolpat}.

Am I depicting correctly what each of you is trying to tell the other?
