I use a 07 JD 644J to make sand/wash stone. We use this sand and stone for concrete, pipe bedding and much more. This is a screening plant we use where I feed and take away. It separates the stone into 2 different sizes, and the sand drops down into the water where the screw spits it out. The pit is down below me, I'm right on top of everything.

I'll be in the same category as Pete.:cool:
Got a lisence for nearly everything, and drives what needs to be driven.
Here's some pics.
And its me on the paver too.(A bet with the paving team!)
Check out our website www.mktef.info
And my youtube user mktef shows some videos when i drive the Volvo G976.
Is also a short clip while i drilled a waterwell with the Nemek.
The G976 is my favorite, and i try to spend as much time as possible in it.:)
Click on my avatar and choose previous posts, i have posted lots of pics here.
And we are a bigger entrepreneur than u can imagine....

That was a couple years ago, I'm sure he's out of the ditch by now. :angel Seriously, that was probably the most dangerous site I've ever worked, and the closest I've ever come to blowing the whistle on a contractor. Arrogance and incompetence don't mix well, and these guys had heapin' helpin's of both. The stories I could tell...:Banghead

We were building dikes for dredge spoil disposal areas. 3:1 inside slope, 2:1 outside slope. The first set of pics were of a baffle dike, on these we sometimes cheat a bit and go steeper than 2:1 if there's not enough material.
