It's been awhile since I did any digging in the pit so I went out last night with the excavator.
It's time to try and open up the south end of the pit but it's hard digging compared to the north end. I have a planned shape of how I want the pit to look but as in real scale the pit goes where the material is and you have no choice
Getting more comfy with the controls at times. Really have to concentrate and as soon as I lose focus a bit, movements are sloppy.

I have to apologize to all the operators I complained about for the last 20 yrs about not running the equipment properly or abusing the machine. In this video i have one of my moments of let's see what we can do. Last time did that, I snapped the boom on the loader!
In real scale I'd be fired for doing this for sure!
No more, it can't be good for the swing bearing and final drives!
