Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
Spring/ Summer is here, Looks like your having fun Mario. Cooper brought up a good question, roads, are you going to use your shingles again or just dirt?

Going to stay with shingles again this year. It was just today I moved the road again in a few places as I figure out where stuff will go. Eventually I want something more permanent and solid. Maybe cold patch asphalt or crusher fines and concrete powder next year. |

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
I must start this post with an apology to RCP57.
I'm sorry Reg, I will never bust your chops about using big equipment when you could do it RC size in your compound. I am now guilty of the same. It's time to start changing the screener area layout and had a lot of dirt to move. Could've been done with rc but would have taken all summer just to move the dirt! So i broke out the shovel and wheelbarrow once again. . Like Flatdeck said , sometimes a job calls for a big shovel. Not complete yet, still have to make a retaining wall for where the screener will go but you'll get the idea. And the flat bar is an approx location and angle of the conveyors. A 4ft at the dump zone and a 6ft from the screener to a storage hopper. Also got the fencing up around the pit and added some new rocks for berms. The rocks I'm using are unique themselves. I've collected them found in the belly pans and boxes of underground equipment. So these rocks are from over 2,000 ft underground, solid rock that's been blasted and mined...... Kinda cool I think. |

Hey Mario, no hard feelings!lol The way I see it some things just aren't realistically accomplished by the RC stuff. If someone wants to take years to move some dirt or have it done in a week by using life size equipment that's OK either way. We all have different ideas on what is fun and how to have it. I still used toys to build my play area, they just happened to be life size. For me I am more interested in getting my main area established and then fine tuning it with the toys. I think that is what you are tying to accomplish too! I like what you are doing so far! Once the sort area is finished there will be a lot going on there to keep you busy! I like the rocks too! I have a big rock on our front steps that we caught on our longline gear years ago. We hauled it up out of 100+ fathoms of water in Barkley Canyon off the coast here. I figured if it made it to the surface from that depth while only being held by one little fish hook it must be worth keeping!
