    The shot with the crusher and both excavators going is just art. To think that just two guys with those machines can turn literally tons of useless concrete into tons of useful gravel in just a few hours is phenomenal.

    One of the first things I did getting out of the Navy was work in a rock quarry
    Oiling on a dragline, Then I ran the Rock Crusher and welded up the hammers in the
    Hammer mill on Saturdays. 😳😱. Then I ran the Dragline 😎👍✅

      in my late teens i got a job working for a farmer, that owned a quarry, i looked after the cattle and moved the pasture fences as the quarry grabbed up grass land turning it into a hole they turned into a big lake, then the farmer sold the big lake to the county for a landfill where trash is dumped today,working around that loud machinery ruined my hearing, but i loved it!

    Runned that setup to , with the pressure system that if the crusher can't crush something it opens hydraulically. But when the jaw is full and it opens..... and you've got some big chunks in it is all lying in no time on the conveyor. And the space between the frame and belt gets narrower, So you have to try and pull it out from the belt to the side. And the pullout conveyor motor lacks a few hp... that's my opinion.

      Not sure if you saw the conveyor standing straight up at the intake side of the crusher, but when it's in use the dirt and very small stuff falls through a grate at the bottom of the intake which vibrates to feed the crusher and drops onto that conveyor and out the side, much like the metal pickup conveyor.
