Nice job. Haven't heard them call thank-you-maams before, in Australia we call them woo-boys

why did you go with the Cat 242b?

Thats one expensive georgia buggy

Sweet little machine congrats

Thank you !!!! Just got a new 304 and could not figure it out

Nice track loader

Great video, love the commentary on tips for doing it right! I have my first job digging footings for a house addition in a few weeks and want to do the best possible job. I was wondering if you're responsible for typically determining the precise depth or is this provided to you by the architect or someone else? The "blueprints" have the min depth below grade but obviously with an addition we want the top row of block to be level with the existing house. It seems like somewhat straight forward math but just not something the excavator would be responsible for.

Why did you cut out the video of the lift? Did you drop it? I notice the lifting holes were bent, is there a better attachment than a shackle?

Say if you were trading in an mini excavator on a larger one where none of the attachments would fit the new machine. Would you trade in all the attachments at the dealership Or would they rob me and not give me what the attachments are worth? Better to trade in or sell privately?

"Wow" looks like quite the job:) cheers 🍻 guys 😎

Super helpful, as a new operator on a 305.5 i appreciate the tips and tricks

The full, Full Tilt crew plus one !! Worked on jobs similar to this, plenty to do and keep an eye on for sure !! I did set myself on fire on a job like this, back in the early 1990s..... I was cutting rebar out of the underside of the deck using a Stihl saw. I was using the saw upside down, unknown to me it was leaking petrol..... and yes, the sparks did ignite the petrol on my jacket.... there I was, a human torch 😮 Saw stopped, I stopped and looked down to see flames coming up to my face..... only thing to do was to throw myself into the water and cool off...... and it was the middle of winter just for good measure!! After an investigation, the hire company knew about the saw leaking petrol, and sent someone to exchange it.... only they exchanged the wrong one.... 🤦‍♂️ I did get a replacement jacket and padded shirt too 😁

Keep the videos coming 👍🏻

Now that is a pretty cool job. Enjoyed that…😀

Ed… That was an interestingly repurposed railroad bridge. Much better than the old foot bridge our county road crew poured a few years back. It had originally been built with old utility poles as both pillars and road bed support stringers. The walking path was made of railroad ties bolted across the pole stringers. They were rotten and it was feared that ATV’s would break through. To repair it, they removed the ties. Then, they nailed corrugated roofing across the stringer poles. A concrete floor was poured on top of that. What they didn’t plan on was the corrugate bowing under the weight of the concrete. Shortly after beginning to pour, the error in their calculations began to surface…. The more they poured, the more it sunk. Who knew that a 6” thick slab of wet cement couldn’t be supported by a four foot span of recycled barn roof? I mean, the county road commissioner had picked it up from his brother-in-law’s construction company…. Even though it cost a bit more (double) than the cost of new metal! Its use did help the county meet the recycling goals of their “Green Agenda”. In the end… they brought in another batch of the BIL’s recycled corrugate to double up the floor support. So, at double the price per piece they spent four times as much as originally planned. After construction, ATV’s, dirt bikes and horses were banned from using it because it rattled too much from vibrations. In the end, a plaque was installed that proudly listed the commissioners name, his brother-in-law’s company, the fact that it was built with recycled materials… and a completion date that is seven months earlier than its actual date. (The plaque had been ordered before the project began… and it was the only one they had available on dedication day!) I wonder if that bridge you were working on might have a few political skeletons in its closet? PS: Did the original county commission have any ties to a plywood supplier?

Morning Boys 👍🤠

That looks like a fun one, Johnny thinks you probably need him to come help you.

That was brutal, wonder how many years of life that job took out of the 304? Good advice about the thickness of concrete clause in the contract.

I have tried to get this done. Would you be willing to share info or number to who did it?

Good day, they're Ed Nice to see you guys back at it. Looks like you guys have great weather. Play Safe Cheers.🍻😎

That was a good size job for you, Ed..... about two weeks work ? Still not good for suppliers for organising deliveries, someone will always mess up your schedule 😬 Rebar tier is a timesaver for you, fairly sure it will pay for itself time and time again 💷💷💷

Great to see you guys back on TH-cam 😁😁

I haven't seen you guys in a while nice to get some content from you guys again👍👍

That max twin tier tool is cool. Thanks for the video 👍🏻

Great job on that concrete pad . Good to see you guys again!

Did you have your fingers crossed when the crane lifted that transformer over your truck? It’s great to watch you and Ray back on the mountain again. It brought back memories… Keep ‘em coming!

Where you guys been at , mis the vids

Droppin vids HARD

Y'all up early this morning 🌞🤠👍

I always wondered how they replaced those utility poles in the sidewalk. Now…. I know. Ed lifts out the concrete chunks and the crew plugs the hole. Fellers, you keep this city work up and you may never see the mountains again!

The Pennsy boy’s are back…you’s don’t look amish!…they let you’s live out there with them….just kidding…you guy’s are great, missed seeing your videos…what’s up you get rid of all the other mini’s….don’t tell me you got rid of the 13 304?

Great video! Thank you for uploading again. You guys are awesome

Back in the city...... close to the ferral animals that roam the streets 🤨😂🤦‍♂️ Three little jobs that were the same but different..... all turned out champion !! 😃💪

Here we go!! Here we go 👍🤠

Bravo on your purchase, we all are getting older and this is one of the those benefits. Liked when you said being there makes you smile. Thanks for sharing the pay offs for hard work and honesty. Thumbs up 👍 to your Mom and Dad. Would love to be part of the paving crew when you decide to lay down some asphalt. 🇺🇸

Great video and content! Thanks for sharing. Love your channel!

Good to see everyone is doing fine

Full Tilt doing what you do best...... going at it full tilt 💪😂 Great to see you all back and in good health, apart from Half Tilt and his dodgy eye...... has Full Tilt been picking on you ??? 😮😂 Pleased you took Mike's advice, getting back in the saddle, will be good for you to keep a record of what you have done there.... He is a great motivator ! And I can see why you can't stop smiling, Ed !! 😁

Good to see the A team back!

Really glad to see you're back!!

Welcome back guys we missed you all

Dirt Boss is the reason I’m subscribed here. 👍🏻

Congratulations on the new property!! Glad to see a video!

Great to see you all back in action BTW, outhouse looks pretty close to a water well, in our area, needs to be 100 ft of separation to avoid the possibility of contamination.

Good to see y'all back at it
