Nothing to it..... there they were making up a joint. 30' drill pipe in mouse hole. Pull up the string, set the slips, break off the kelly, swing it over to the joint in the mouse hole. The chain is wrapped clockwise if you pull from the bottom. Pulled chain to screw pipe in mouse hole onto kelly and torque with tongs. Take lead tongs and put on tool joint of string, wrap chain counter clockwise, stab the joint you just made up, throw chain up on top, that will make up the pipe, torque with tongs, pull slips. Wash floor and get ready to do it again.

This is what it looks like when you trip pipe back into the hole....
