CD Sure enjoyed the pictures of your work. Glad the white stuff is out there, it looks much better on the mountains than it would here.

Here are a few fotos from this week.

These crane guys are really good. Very fast and accurate. This is a little project in Basalt, Co we have been doing. Started off doing all the dirt and ended up doing the landscaping as well.

That is one way of moving things from one side of the place to another. Did you get snowed on again this week?

We went from 84 to 44 degrees, just 100 miles away 10" of snow. What a crazy spring.

Love that bridge over the pond. Nice work. I would love a rock wall like that, but there ain't a rocks like that with in 300miles of me.

Thanks DB, I have been so busy have not had much time to follow the forums. the other problem is my old laptop took a dump on me about 5 weeks ago and I am on a whole new system. Windows 8 with Outlook 13 on a Dell Tablet and a Dell Insipiron with a
17" moniter. To say the least i am goinf through some major mid life problems re-adjusting to the technology. I have had a hell of a time transfering all my contacts out of Windows Live into Skype. Whatever... Life is good we are working like dogs and have more coming.


I am so over this B.S. The only computer I can run is my antique in the office and they keep updating it. Now i can't even load pictures

Demoing a komatsu? What ever happened with the yanmar?

 

[Colorado Digger]

The Yanmar went back quite awhile ago, The Komatsu 88 was just a 1 day rental. Pretty nice hoe though.

 

[AlloaExcavating]

Where you not happy with the yanmar or just didnt have the workload for it?

 

[Colorado Digger]

It was a combination of the two. We were not all that busy and the machine was slow, it was an R.P. so I just gave it back.

 

[Colorado Digger]

Here we are doing P.M.







My New Tractor

 

[Fastdirt]

Great shots. Such an amazing background. Around here we all dream of heading out West and riding dirt bikes across Colorado. I'd love to sit in a machine in that environment. Like the new KW. I just bought a similar road tractor. That one looks to be about 240". Are you going to fix her up or just run it? Lot's of potential there.

 

[Colorado Digger]

We are working on her slowly. Lot's of small stuff, just did the rear drums and shoes and fixing little things. I would like to have her in service in a few months. I had found a nice end dump but it got sold out from under me. I have located a lowboy so things are coming around. We have been in a slight lull but things picked back up
.





We are on a big maintenance kick because things are starting to get real busy.

 

[nedly05]

Sweet tractor, tell us a little more about it. Year specs etc. that red crew cab Chevy is pretty sharp too.

 

[Colorado Digger]

It's an 85 Kenworth w900 with a cat 425b in it. It has a 13 speed Hendriksen and is on bags. It is a very long truck and should be great for hauling lowboy and end dump. I am fixing it as we go, so I don't spend a ton of money on it. I hope to have it running in a few months.

Regards, CD

You will be spoiled having a semi to move your equipment. Bet you wonder how you ever got by with out it, after you have had it a while.
