I'm hoping with the added hopper that a full trl load will drop & go, it can hammer away while I'm reloading. :)

Hi Joe

Looking good :jaw:cannot wait to see it all in action.

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

Me too Mark... almost there

Went to town early this morning to use a welding shop's hyd roller bender to curve 1" square tube

Over did the back side a lil bit :eek: :D

A couple of empty test runs with the 4206 & trl, a lil hairy going off the back side... some asphalt shingles might suffice.

Just gotta wire up the crusher, but 1st I need a nap! :)

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

Just like the roads in Western Norway ;) Looking forward to some clips of this beast in action.

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

That's coming together fast. Can't wait to see video.

The back side looks kinda sketchy, but your drivers have had it too easy since you stopped using the basement ramps up the walls and out the window.

I wish you had better weather for the farm, but i'm glad we can see this sooner.

I've been working on site prep

Might get a video uploading tonite with the jaw crusher

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

I like the space saving parking technique in the first pic !

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

Church Crunch Film-time Popcorn ready..........Good job on the plant Joe :)

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

I like the nice fine material he's got down!!!

Nice work joe!!

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

HaH! :D I stand it up like that to fish the battery out.

Here you go Bo, crunch away :p

I don't know why there is no sound, 4 quick vids & not a peep in any of them... :rolleyes:

That fine dirt RW is like beach sand, you can drive flat on it, but you can't climb it, & stay away from the edges, it'll suck you in like quicksand! :D

The 850 caught fire tonite, the 2x25 Sabertooth for the tracks blew up, it was flash fire!!! :eek: I could smell that "magic smoke", so I lift the hood off & was feeling around to see what was hot, then POOF!!! Luckily one big breathe blew it out. That 2x25 would've been 6yrs old this July.

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

Good thing you caught it before it got into the Hydro oil. Have you thought about adding a grizzly to cut down on the fines going into the crusher?

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

Better invest in a fire truck as well :eek: Strange how these things work and work, until suddenly "pooofh".

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

What I'm crushing is what I've already screened earlier... though some of the dirt is not dried yet, the rocks going through will help keep the plates clean. ;)

The 2x12 Sabertooths just up & quit sometimes with no drama, but this was 1st 2x25 that smoked. I ordered a couple 2x25's a few weeks ago for something else, I got them from the mail today, so 850 will be running again today. :)

I was gonna start seeding today, but rain started about 7am :rolleyes:

Took two hands to connect a battery to finish 'er off, by the time I grabbed camera the fireworks were over with

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...psnkemdjke.jpg

Using the B50 to fill crusher, hauls twice what the bellydump does... need to go find some damp dirt to build up exit ramp... entry is 18 degrees - exit 32 degrees :eek:

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

Wow, atleast the 850 is ok. That's a pretty good run, i'm sure it's done a lot of yards.

The crusher video had sound for me.

Gonna need a sprayer truck now for settling and compacting all the fines.

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

keeps getting better joe!! You got me motivated to make some sort of screening plant. I like the shaker table idea.

Is that fine sand stuff you are talking about just the dirt that's been processed? Or is it actual sand material. Around here we have decent soil but on the sandy side. Good for the plows but not good in between rains, drys out too quick. But this year it's been a swamp everywhere. Fields still have standing water, starting to kill off vegetation. Bee good for finding a bunch of baby snapping turtles this year :). ,,, perfect match for my wife's new little doggie!!! ;).

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

also need to replace the jerry can with a feul truck lol all these projects to do hehe :eek: :lol:

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

The vid didn't play sound on laptop, but I hear it on youtube... made another vid with B50 dumping in crusher & same thing with no sound till uploaded to youtube. :thinking:

All that screened & crushed dirt is going outside... another build project after seeding, a set of bellydump cross dumps. ;)

RW, all that fine material is pure clay. Pour a glass of water on it & it would turn to snott in an instant! After it dried it'd be a brick! Vibra screening it when it's damp it balls up a lil bit & is kinda like grainy sand.

Shaker table... as in what I showed on my farmer thread? The problem with that idea is small rocks & wet dirt will block off the holes. Vibrator screen at a slight angle keeps that from happening. ;)

Yes Jack, lots of ideas, just not always lots of ambition to get 'er done :o

Using the B50 to dump into crusher working a lot better, haul more dirt per trip, dump & go. ;)

That pile is about 25 B50 loads

Made a good size dent in the lumpy pile

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

A propper trailer for that beast :)

Re: LilGiantsConstrCo
 

That looks like a fun project Joe. How much bigger is it then the belly dump?
