    As others have commented, this is a lot of heavy, physical work, and mental work, also, not to mention the responsibility for the super expensive equipment and his own safety. If this fellow did the camera work, too, this had to take a lot more than 37 and 1/2 minutes. Dude did a great job. I will be 72 next week, and arthritic, to some degree. Just dragging the heavy chains around, and rigging, would get me in 10 minutes. I thought, the whole time, he needs some, even semi-competent, help. One man, driving the truck, operating the loader, doing all of the logistics and physicals of loading and securing, un securing and unloading, almost all heavy work, blows my mind, a little. I also think,. as others, that he is truly, maybe more than, earning whatever he is being paid.

      @wmden1...i concur with your comment. Arthritis has also got me to stop driving (the legs/knees ain't cooperating ...can't climb into trucks anymore}, but after 2.5 mio kms (*) since 1986 of flat-deck & vans for Kleysen Transport cross Canada; tri-axle van LTL loads ON to Maritimes for U-Can/Universal, both as O/O, 2,5 yrs of city P&D in the GTHA, followed by 18 yrs of part-time drive-away/tow-away deliveries, incl. piggy-back combos and over-dimensional mobile cranes US & Canada, I've done my share of CMV-driving (I do miss it, though)...and, Happy Birthday...I beat you by a year, though....LOL. (*) = self-taught, accident & claims-free!
      @luckybananaheavyhaul340.7...My compliments, Duke, for all your videos, but this particular one was especially interesting, as i often wondered how the unloading (& loading, yet to be watched) process works and, also how the boosters are hooked-up or -off.
      I also wonder how/when you find the time to edit the videos.....or do you do that for an hour here and there in the sleeper while on the road? No matter, which way, can you elaborate a) what kind of cameras you use (go_pro or Insta360) and how much time it takes to edit an average (length) video?

I never met him personally, but at least got a quote from his company for either gravel building a driveway, or hard pack topping it, or gravel to level an area of yard , or bringing/placing some boulders for a retaining wall around that. Not positive I used him for any of it, but I think I did, for at least one of those 4 things in the 1986-88 timeframe. I remember finding out that he was an Indy Car driver among other things.

    The loader in the Background is an International Harvester 560 Wheel Loader, noted by the white cab assembly and engine covering. Prior to International, this loader was known as Hough Loaders, then International bought Hough, then Dresser Industries bought the remaining pieces of International after Komatsu destroyed what was left of International Harvester.

      @luckybananaheavyhaul3407 I bet they do on a new machine. Both the ones I moved had almost 20,000 hrs on them and the centering springs had gone soft. I noticed the stick was drifting ever so slightly without me touching it. I did like the ergonomics of it don't get be wrong, but definitely something to keep a close eye on for those of us that move rentals and well-worn machines regularly.

    Um you took the back dolley off why not stack the front jeep (or whatever its called) on as well. Interesting getting trl out from under. How you load it though special area or just back it on with wood the entire way?

    • @luckybananaheavyhaul3407
      @luckybananaheavyhaul3407  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Loading we usually get another loader or forklift to push the trailer under. Those 12 x 12 hardwood blocks are heavy and it’s a lot of work to put wood all the way.
      I only removed the back dolley because my annual permit allows me up to 30 meters long in Quebec. By only removing the back dolley I’m short enough to move legally without additional permit and escorts.
