This is "fireplace TV" for construction guys. It's very relaxing to watch other folks do the work... 😁😇🤟

That’s crazy every 5 scoops of that bucket those trucks are moving over 30 yards of material in every truck load, That is a lot of earth moving. It’s crazy how the excavator operators precise movements can make or break the day in terms of efficiency. He has to be going towards the ground as he swings out and then wants to be above the bed side but not so far up that he’s wasting time.

Grt video operator is doing a superb job 👏🏽 👌🏾 👍🏽 ..of course the machine is fantastic!!🎉

Great video as always I have been waiting a long time for one of these videos! I love the watch me work series! But this video is just great I love this excavator, I’m only in 10th grade right now but when o get older I want to own a large earth moving company and I plan on having a few of these 349’S. By making these videos you teach me and motivate me to do what I want to do when I get older and to work hard so that I can own a few of those excavators! I will stay with you along your whole journey and I will always be here to support you on your videos and hey maybe one day you will be coming out to my site! Have a good rest of your week and catch you on the next one!

The only advice I want to give you is go work in this industry for a few years before trying to run a company. Even tho it looks somewhat simple and straightforward, it’s very complex. Everyone big earthmoving company I know started out as an operator. And it’s essential too

[@avenheavner108]

@@austint7533 Yes I totally 100% agree with you and I already have company’s that said that they want me and that I can work with them for a few years as a operator and get experience.

I could watch this all day and night

[@tannerbaker9609]

Good operator on the 349 🤙🏼

[@VernonChitlen]

Not really, he should load out the slot the first truck left into second to keep the trucks close on having to reach so far in loading. And vise versa next round.

@@VernonChitlen if u want to get technical but he is good period. Smooooooth bubba

[@VernonChitlen]

@@tannerbaker9609 I've loaded 4-5 million yards of shot rock and mass ex in quarry stripping. Mini excavators to a 1200 Hitachi. That operator had trucks waiting, he could have shortened his swing and cycled quicker.

[@tannerbaker9609]

@@VernonChitlen eh he’s fine bubba but good for you man that’s neat

[@StixxonRdy]

I’m in the same area. You should stop by and see what we got going on.

Construction Simulator 3 lol

[@TheAcadianHoeman]

That's an operator!👌

[@robbyrigoni2940]

Use scrappers. Its faster

[@DC180]

Constructor Simulator brought me here... after using it in the game haha

[@johnnymurff4137]

Good work.

[@shawnfox445]

Why am I entertained watching this if I was there I'd be complaining about wanting to go home.

[@ernierundall1336]

Thanks for the video

[@mcspikesky]

I say, oo baby I like it raw.

[@jesselockett735]

Currently at the mine I work at we are renting a 374, it’s a really cool excavator

[@AaronWitt]

awesome

[@doolittlegeorge]

That's really nice dirt. Tesla had to build out their own Martin Marietta aggregate complex on site because of the amount of sand and gravel in their truly massive and still expanding and getting even larger Giga Austin Texas project.
Apparently a build out of a Super Tall in Austin Texas has now been confirmed if you want to up your Construction presentation game.
Near one Century on and still no one has come even close to equalling the Empire State Building in correct type build at least on that scale.
Funny to hear people complain about heat and humidity issues in their builds as such in point of fact this being a *HUGE* problem (mold) in particular in the State of Florida.

[@chuyserna7133]

Do they use grade assist??

[@AaronWitt]

not here

[@ryanhempel5214]

Gravy duty….apprentice work

[@gradeywarey4448]

349 to small . Trucks waiting … money /time wasted need a 352 at least

[@kelbycoon3281]

Ay number fifteen🙂

[@markymarc136]
