The new 250G lined up at the shop with a few of the other excavators.

Blading at the beginning of last summer. Beans under about 6 feet of water on either side of the road. Eventually the water came up and over the road.

New 279C with the old 279C

Traded off our last 2 Gehl 5640Es for 2 new Cat 246Cs. This was the first one.

You should be proud of a well turned out fleet like that!, hope the work keeps coming in for you and your family business

Thank you very much! If the snow would stop, we have a few solid months of work lined up already. The frost went out partially, and then it started snowing again and everything is just a mess now. We haven't been able to use the 980G for snow removal this past month because the parking lots can barely handle the 950s and 624s

Sure I can do that sometime soon! In the mean time you can look at this.

Very nice looking business you have there. That garage looks sweet, and huge. Guess its required with your long, cold winters to have a nice place to work on equipment.

Well I suppose I better update this thread since I have been saving up pictures. I'm just going to post a lot of random ones I have on my phone. Some of them are projects I worked on this summer, and some are pictures of our equipment.

Okay this is a job where we were hired to dig the footings and then back fill them. How do these walls look to you guys?

Driveway that a guy wanted widened about 2 feet on either side, but didn't want to pay for any gravel to be brought in.

There was only a driveway up to this house, so I cut out the sod and black dirt and put in some gravel.

I had to replace this culvert at my grandparent's place with our 302.5C

Customers machine shed. I built up the gravel about 6 inches.

Stripping a lot for a new hotel.

Building up the roads and parking lot at a fertilizer plant.

Used the 700H to build a haul road across a wet spot.
IMG_1646.jpg

This job was way too wet for our 627Bs. Believe it or not, it took our D6H XL and D6R XL to pull/ push me out of this one.

My dad wanted to try out my old John Deere 450. We cleaned out some trees at my place.

After we were done.

Another customer who wanted something done as cheaply as possible. He just didn't want his loading dock to turn to slop, so I cut out the clay about 8 inches down from the concrete and sloped it about 6 inches out at 100' or so. Put down some filter cloth, covered it with crushed concrete and packed it.

Some more work I did at my house with our tractor hoe and my John Deere 450.
IMG_2165.jpg

The sales man told us to try this out, and I was lucky enough to get to put 15 hours on it. One sweet machine if you ask me!

Parking lot I was working on for a company to park their truck fleet on. It was crushed concrete, and the dark spots are just where I had watered it, packed it, and bladed it again. The stuff was so hard it didn't want to saturate.
