Nice work. For what you're doing a track loader is hard to beat on a dig and carry project. I've got some pics but there all on my old computer and I haven't gotten them transferred yet.

Hi there
You seem pretty good at cable locating
What is it that you are actually installing?
Or are you resurfacing ?
Hard to make out not being an operator

Those phone wires are big sheckles around this part of the country and you can NEVER trust CBYD for accurate location,even they have an error margin for their own protection.I take pics if I question anything they mark out for me.Nice work and good equipment there.Ron G

Our 953c loader and 307 excavator are the two main workhorses of our fleet. For the size of the 953 it is absolutely mind blowing how nimble and stable they are. I can't imagine doing half the jobs we do without them.

I can see track loaders making a come back if the building industry picks up. That's the thing , the say it has picked up. Not to my knowledge has it picked up. The rental property industry has picked up because people can't get 125% home loans anymore. Back on topic , a skilled track loader operator seems to be few and far these days. My hopes are to own a 53 in a couple of years or sooner since we had " a boom in building".
