    She's a beaut. The 120 is the machine I learned to run an excavator on too. Took a heavy equipment course with 7 other guys (and 5 other machines) and those memories will last the rest of my life. Almost shed a tear watching it leave the shop too, lol.

    You are right to thank the hard work of Aaron, Jason and Todd too, without them I think it would take you a lot longer as you would only have very limited time to work on her.
    You are right not to splash out on paint as she is an oldie, maybe if she earns her keep in a couple of years or so, then it may be worth looking into.
    In time, Macy and Gunner may learn to operate this too !!!

  • @ronaldheit196
    @ronaldheit196 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    My take on the paint covers new clients.
    If your equipment looks beat up it can reflect on the reliability of you to being able to complete the job.
    That piece of equipment is in no way a bad reflection on your company.
    Paint and the labor to put it on costs $$$$ that may go elsewhere where it's needed more importantly in the end.
    In the end, I'm willing to bet you get most of your new clients from positive word of mouth recommendations from those you already have.
    That's normal in small town life.
    I grew up in a farm town so I know all about that subject.

    I had to laugh at the safety chain preventing counterweight from tipping over. the forklift might have been needed to level out and help support the weight of the thing hen bringing it down. I don’t know what the weight of the counterweight is but Aaron better have some heavy duty steel toed boots in the event that God for bid that chain broke when you were maneuvering it to the side of the excavator. Aaron would have been been nicknamed. NTA (no toes Aaron). I glad the leak was fixed, great job and a lil luck and intuition on that lose bolt. Was it a screw driver only bolt?
