Keep your ears open and learn. That banter between Chris and Charlie has taught me more about this business than anything... hauling costs, expenses, load limits, and the reasons how, and why, they do what they do. I'd classify this as an educational opportunity! Thanks guys!
Why? You know all the concrete's components (gravel, sand, water, cement) originated FROM the earth, right? After using them for 50 or so years, why not return everything back to the earth? In fact, by using as a roadbed, you are essentially filling the land. This was an smart economic decision, not an ecological one.
@@kellerrobert80 does it offend you that it's ecologically sound as well. At least putting this back in the ground as base means you're not digging more rock out. On the cost side its marginal at best. When you add in the extra time/labour cost it works out about the same.
As others have said, it was great hearing Charlie tell the history of the machine and how it works. AND the money side hauling to dump vs crushing, etc.
@@strokiinyourmom But he says he shares it with his best friend with his own screening machine. Scratch my back, I'll scratch yours ! A win/win situation here ! $$$ Brilliant !
when we tore out old concrete at the mulch yard we brought in a crusher and used the crushed concrete to build the base for the asphalt that got laid. it saves a ton of money to repurpose that concrete like this.
This is so cool, I just started watching your channel a few weeks ago, and now you're using a piece of equipment that was built where I work. I started a new job with Terex (who build the Evoquip brand equipment) last year. That machine was built right here in Northern Ireland!
@@loskop100 no amego it's not built in the old car works that's long long long gone. Terex have plants all over Northern Ireland there's one where I live in Omagh.
Gave you more abc than I thought it might. Saves having to pay to truck it in. Loved the camera angle on the dozer where you had the camera on the cage outside. Was able to see well.
That crusher was super cool! It ripped through all of that concrete with little effort. That really gives you an idea on how well the crusher was built. The manufacturer really knew what they were doing when they built this machine. That crushed concrete is a beautiful material and it will look really nice all spread out at the end of this job!! Great work Chris! 👍
Recycling concrete is as good as it gets in construction. A fantastic resource, does good, performs as good as or better than stone and the obvious environmental benefit. I only use stone when I cannot get RCP. I love the way the fines compact.
Great Job Chris. Great Video, this answers some of my previous questions. Figure approx 250 ton of gravel @ $25.00 a ton ,probably 16 truckloads delivered. plus deducting in excess of 20 trucks of hauling out the bulk concrete + dumping charges then bringing in new rock.. Great business decision. love to see final breakdown of the reclamation project. Thanks again
Chris, I appreciate all your videos and the time you spend editing them. A lot of individuals rush to post. You take the time to prepare them. Thank you again my friend. :-)
@letsdig18 Thanks for the videos im not an operator but do have some equipment on the farm. I have watched and listened to your helpful hints over the years and tried to put the instruction to use. today i needed to knock down some piles with the dozer when i got done and turned to look at it . it actually looked good . I am sure the farm will start looking better and better thanks for the helpful advice
it was quite relaxing to watch you crush concrete and to see charlie with another toy roll up into that jobsite. cant wait to see the progression of this job and all the stone that will have to be put down and spread. youll really get to break in your new to you dozer. looking forward to the next all new exciting video youll be putting out.
The one draw back on re-using the material is keeping it CLEAN! If a bunch of dirt and plastic gets in the product most municipalities won’t accept it except for sub-grade fill
I think this will be one of your most watched videos. We all have watch the building pad you carved out of near solid rock. So after that we are all enjoying this. Thanks for sharing with us.
This video brought back memories. I worked in a rock quarry in the early eighties. Only our crusher was powered by a BIG supercharged V-12. In SE Kansas we called ours "road rock" and it was 1 1/4" down. I really enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!
That is one awesome machine that eats slabs of concrete like it is candy, the out put is even more amazing by the way it sorts out the different size materials you want and the stuff you don't want into other piles, even the way it sorts out the metal into another pile. WOW, what a machine.
Yeah, we got all the basic food groups in this video. Excavator, skid-steer, Dozer, wide load semi-truck and even a Bonus Guest Crusher - the only thing missin' was the big yellow dumptruck. btw, I have a life behind a desk so this is my 1 hour a day where I get to nerd out and get obsessive about heavy equipment. Let the dreamers dream, bud - geez.
@@jonschneck4559 they showed the amount of wire that came out after the first pass... I think they will use it to top stone where they are..but a shame really...
@@SBEARD12345 Chris said he is top coating it with clean rock. I use it for driveways and parking lots, some plants leave more wire some produce a very clean product
@@jonschneck4559 okay.. just thinking we have seen him get free sand, now free rock, free wood for a fire in his house... All he needs is a wood chipper and he would get free weed suppression too. Though cost might be prohibitive, unless pre used And I don't think I know somebody else that does a video a day. Thank you Chris
In our area of Ohio that’s called black jack wax your pushing. At times it’s so sticky it’s about impossible to move. Sets up like concrete until it’s wet then it turns into a mess. Never seen it mixed with so much other material. No wonder it’s about impossible to move. Driving over it when it’s damp like that sure does make it tough to move. Great 👍 content a pleasure to watch. Looks like Charlie was set up and ready for you 👍 🇺🇸🦅🌏⚓️🇺🇸
Love the twisted-heavy-haul-logic lol... All joking aside, I enjoyed his quick walk-around on the crusher. I hauled plenty of screens and padding machines for the last job but only on six axles. Now that I do mostly wind and oilfield stuff, I don't get to play with the equipment these days, unless it's simply big pieces of a large machine. Always enjoy seeing what kind of projects you've gotten into from back east. By the way, I enjoyed the various views, from afar (showing how it sorted) and from the claw... The advantage of running all this through the crusher is obviously better than adding to the demo pile at a landfill. Very interesting stuff...
Loved the video..... I've been watching the channel for about two months now and this is about the time most viewers become "experts" at your craft. I will confine my suggestions to those I make to you while watching your videos. You will be happy to know you almost always follow my advice. :) Amazing machine, thanks for taking the time to show it. Not sure if this or the screen is my favorite though.
Charlie's screener was an impressive machine. This one's even more. Awesome ! Both Charlie and his buddy, sharing each's awesome money making machine is brilliant ! Thanks Chris for showing us this !
I'l turn 60 this summer. Used a lot of power tools in my youth without hearing protection and shot a lot of waterfowl on the Eastern shore of Maryland (ducks and geese) in the fall and winter, also without hearing protection. Have pretty significant hearing loss now. You all might want to be a bit more serious about wearing some hearing protection. Once it's gone, it's gone.
You are getting some pretty good tonnage p/h yield, steady gets it done. Nice set up, the way you have it. Thanks for the update sir, enjoying the crushing series of videos.
10 views, 6 comments and 110 likes. TH-cam again. 😁😂 Helloooo! 😎 A lot of work, Chris. Top video! 👍 Have a great weekend. 😊🌅 22:30 Chris: "Grandma here!" 😂
Chris, you should look at the severe duty root grapple for the skid steer. We used to load 8'x8' sections of floor slab into dumps with an RC-100. Also used it for moving brush and logs for the excavator, so you're not having to transfer multiple times. Awesome work brother, wish I was closer, I'd enjoy working with you.
Bought a property to build our camp on. It was a great deal but covered in trash. We raked everything up that was on top and hauled it to the dump. Dug a lot of the property up sorted through it. Once I was down to just about nothing left we leveled off the property with fill. Well worth it for the property we got though.
That's pretty amazing, certainly went faster than I thought it would. Buddy of mine gets ground up asphalt on occasion. When he first started getting it, they had it completely crushed to ABC size, guess that was costing them too much time and money so now you get some ABC size, but the bulk of it is chunks ranging from 2-3" up to 18" chunks. Makes using it for roads way more difficult.
i thought he seed 11/2 bits rest goes back to hopper to be crushed again and if you look at it working this sounds right and looks right not sure where you got the 3 to 18 inch lumps from
Nice work Chris. Friend loaned me a compact excavator couple weeks ago, watching you payed off digging stumps and trees up. Had to dig 180 feet for new water line.😉
Yay ive been waiting to see the crusher. I looked up a crusher video last night and watched one crush all kinds of stuff like big rocks and metal containers. It was badas

Yep, little bit of effort and knowing the right things saves you a crapton of money.
way better than learning from 1puglife

I TOTALLY ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO CHR I S 😊
It’s good to see Charlie again. I miss seeing him and hearing his stories.
He does have a way of phrasing a sentence.
He does have great stories
He comments on ever video.
I like that you're keeping the concrete out of the landfill and it's making usable material for the job.
Why? You know all the concrete's components (gravel, sand, water, cement) originated FROM the earth, right? After using them for 50 or so years, why not return everything back to the earth?

Those concrete crushers are beasts!
We use the crushed concrete as base for our concrete😂. Its the best base material out there. Absolutely perfect in muddy areas
Recycling at its very best. Turning something that costs money into something worth money!
If only we could do this with plastic...
Something therapeutic about seeing concrete being crushed, thanks for sharing all your great work Chris! 👍
I think it's unanimous... everyone loves to see Charlie.
What an amazing friend, Chris you are so very lucky, and blessed.
A moment of silence for pins and bushings please!
If the animal hospital job didn’t hurt the pins and bushings nothing would
This is so cool, I just started watching your channel a few weeks ago, and now you're using a piece of equipment that was built where I work. I started a new job with Terex (who build the Evoquip brand equipment) last year. That machine was built right here in Northern Ireland!
Just curious, was it built in the old Delorean plant?
@@loskop100 no amego it's not built in the old car works that's long long long gone.

I was looking forward to seeing how this machine removed the rebar and wire. That's cool!
That thing is awesome! Road base made right on the site automatically, the things they make nowadays!
That bucket view was legit
"Thumb-view"...
Love to see things cleaned up and looking good. Thanks CHris
I was thinking that Charlie should have ear plugs, but then I remembered he's married. lol
The crusher moved more material than I thought it would.
Its always awesome when Charlie shows up with another piece of equipment to entertain us. Thanks Chris
Can't believe how fast that processed that concrete..
Wow, that went quickly! Nice looking end product.
That crusher was super cool! It ripped through all of that concrete with little effort. That really gives you an idea on how well the crusher was built.

WOW!! Can you imagine how much more you'd have if you hadn't buried the rest of it? That machine is awesome!! Great video Chris!
That crusher was shakin so hard that my eye drops on the table fell over.
I couldn't stop thinking about that ball of keys wearing the switch with all the vibrations, great to see Charlie with his skills working with you
Loved this video. So well put together with valuable time taken for different camera angles etc. One of the best so far.
Recycling concrete is as good as it gets in construction. A fantastic resource, does good, performs as good as or better than stone and the obvious environmental benefit. I only use stone when I cannot get RCP. I love the way the fines compact.
That exterior-mounted bulldozer footage was viscerally satisfying.
Love watching you working
Glad you had the wind in your favor that day. That crusher is amazing. Awesome being able to see it operate up close and personal.
Great Job Chris. Great Video, this answers some of my previous questions.

Would enjoy watching Chris,Charlie and Justin work a large job together.
More recyleing is what we need more of . Great video .
That black soil's definitely worth screening, even if it's just to use on the farm.
Chris, I appreciate all your videos and the time you spend editing them. A lot of individuals rush to post. You take the time to prepare them. Thank you again my friend. :-)
Always good to see ole Charlie.
That is really cool. I heard of those. Never seen one work before. Sweet machine

Some LARGE machines in his episode for sure. That bucket is enormous! lol Solid stuff bud! Great work!
Enjoyed all of the different camera angles and periodic walk-arounds.
The one draw back on re-using the material is keeping it CLEAN! If a bunch of dirt and plastic gets in the product most municipalities won’t accept it except for sub-grade fill
You can always tell an old rock crusher operator, but you can't tell them much. They can't hear you.

Rocks, tree, cars..
I wouldn’t have it on my driveway, we’ve used it for pipe begging and construction entrances and it is full of wire normally.

Absolutely amazing!!! Love the concrete eater!!!!
I enjoy how you finish a project as you say "pretty".
I really enjoy your videos, very informative and you dont talk nonstop.
Different camera angles and location are great!
That concrete crusher is awesome! I've seen them but never had the chance to watch one work. Definitely a savings on having crush and run trucked in.
Wow what a nice crusher super to see it working well
That's some really good looking materials.
Thanks Chris. That was cool.
Awesome camera placement in front of the dozer and bucket view!!
That was very interesting to watch & learn 👍
Excavator and dozer and crusher oh my! Wow, what an awesome episode!
Cool to see the crusher in action. Made short work of that. Was surprised how quick it reduced into size.
That's a cool piece of equipment
I was riding the thumb! That was cool!
Wow that was awesome. Awesome machine😀
