The going gets good after the 0:40 mark.

Snowmayne · 03-17-2011, 12:01 PM

are you in love with tractors bro?

**SageTree** · 03-17-2011, 12:02 PM

By only in England, I assume you're telling me that is the only place gravity kicks people's ass?

?????

I've run small Caterpillar excavators. It takes a few tries to get the foot and hand controls no doubt.

I'm very impressed when I can watch someone grade dead on with the laser level's depths.

Good shit. Saved a lot of shoveling by hand.

What kind of machine/industry you running on for?

But seriosly, tractors are cool as shit aswell. I've driven a Ford, Case, John Deere, and a Masey Ferguson.

Heavy machinery is pretty dope man.

Sage, this one is for you:

Guy has skills.

I've operated Hydrema Dumpers, the biggest one being the 922c. Also a few excavators, Hitachi, Volvo, Takeuchi, the biggest being around.. 8 tonnes..? So small time.. Also a ton of front loaders, and whatchamacallit, steam rollers? Not on steam.. I Dunno what they are called in english. I am from Denmark you know.

Snowmayne · 03-17-2011, 12:15 PM

oh i agree its cool i just dont understand the reaccuring theme here

**SageTree** · 03-17-2011, 12:33 PM

Wathing this vid.... why do I assume there is some Noah shit gonna happen?

**SageTree** · 03-17-2011, 12:36 PM

Nice.....

While I think it's bunk to tear apart a dam... or try to with the war with a beaver's will to dam things.... I think that turned out better than I expected.

The Don · 03-17-2011, 12:46 PM

I'm not exactly zealous about the enviroment, but I think about it. These machines run on diesel, and they just gulp like i dunno what. I dunno if there's a theme. In my time absent I've developed a healthy admireation for this type of equipment..

Flamingnun · 03-17-2011, 12:50 PM

Needs moar Bagger 288.

The Don · 03-17-2011, 12:53 PM

Dude nun don't get me started. No homo.

I don't know the english word for what I think about that machine. I guess awe comes close enough.

Mikey · 03-17-2011, 01:04 PM

i got hit in the head with an excavator bucket a long time ago because of an incompetent stupid fuck, had a major concussion i always keep track of there the bucket or any machinery is now

oh and they shouldnt make excavators so small that two people can flip it back up thats just plain fucking stupid.

Awe/boner comes close dude. 13,500 tonnes of power. Im a sucker for big machines, and the B288 is king.

It's hard to even find a photo that puts its scale into perspective properly.

**SageTree** · 03-17-2011, 01:15 PM

Fossil fuels to do a days work in an hour...?
Or
Fossil fuels to run a tractor and the works that grows and delivers the food for a crew of hard working people to dig the same hole or the like...?

I support the workers, which means some days it's just easier and quicker to use the macheen.

Second question, for bonus points:

"What kind of big jobs?"

(REALLY is not an acceptable answer)
