Default Re: Cable excavators of the 1940's and 50's

Between Rustybucket, modelman, and 9W's work I am beginning to get cold feet about my little 3/4 yd dragline project! Just kidding, what wonderful craftsmanship guys! I agree, the cable machines from the US built a lot of miles of interstate, autoban, and countless other highways around the world. They required great skills to build and to operate them.....we sort of lost out to joysticks and hydraulics along the way!!
