Funny story about this picture. I was working at this house and as you can see my truck and trailer were parked in the cul-de-sac. Well the school bus ended up coming down the street and honked at me. So I went down to see what the matter was, and the driver said was blocking the cul-de-sec and that I needed to move my truck so she could turn around. So I was a little puzzled as to why she couldn’t turn around so I told her she had plenty of room and I would help her back up if she wanted. She said no and that if I didn’t move the truck she would call the police!:Banghead So I offered to turn the bus around for her haha. That didn’t go over well. So a cruiser shows up and he looks at the cul-de-sac and literally says “Ser you’re doing nothing wrong you can go back to work” and he made the driver turn the bus around. And after all this happened the homeowner came out and said she had parked her SUV on the side of the cul-de-sac before and she got reported by the bus driver for blocking the road. So here is my point about all this… I would have had no problem moving my truck if it was actually stopping her from being able to turn around, or if she didn’t threaten to have the police come out. People who can’t operate a motor vehicle or a piece of machinery properly should not be driving or running a machine at all. Hopefully the bus driver gets fired for not being able to drive her bus. I’m just doing my part to help get all the stupid people off the road:usa

Ripping out a tar walkway and prepping for a new walk and wall.

Saw this while driving home from a job one day. No idea how this happened or if anyone was injured. (I hope not) Strange thing was there was no other vehicle involved with the accident. If i had to guess i would say the person was going way to fast around the corner and flipped. Maybe it was one of those stupid drivers i was ranting about earlier. :beatsme

Quick little half day project. Removing and hauling away of an old cement wall and steps. Installed new granite steps and graded the yard so it wasn't as steep.

the 50

my dealer cannot even get those tractors. i tried the 60 but if i am cottect the 60 and 80 are doosans and the 50 is still a real bobcat. nice pics. sometimes those rocks are impossible to break. i pretty much use my 980 breaker on concrete flatwork and walls if i hit something big i call the drillers and they come crack it for me. keep the updates coming on that track hoe. i am in the market bit may buy a used 435 duy to market price issues. do you have a head shaker for that hoe? they work great.

The tilt is the best thing we have ever purchased for one of our mini's. Its an expensive attachment but its worth every penny. You can do tasks way faster, its a real time and money saver.

Yea the 60 and 80 are Doosans, DONT buy a 60, just go to Bobcat's website and compare the 50 and the 60 and you will see why. My local dealership ended up canceling all there orders for 60's once the 50's came out. You might have already checked this out but if you haven't take a look at my other thread on the E50. https://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/showthread.php?t=19789. And what is a head shaker? If you don't mind me asking, I have never herd of that.

head shaker

head shakers are big plate compacter mounted on the end of the stick. looks like you guys have s few stones, so maybe don't even need to think about one. you use them all the time. but it is a different line of work.
