JCB BLOKE Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Damian that is massive, a 100t one must me colossal!!! What type of rock is it? Its sandstone block Tris, and it goes for upto £70 per tonne if its any good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 no bill , when the quarry was in full swing we had one at 100 ton . it took a 75 ton komatsu pulling and 2 330's pushing . we know it was 100 ton because we drilled and popped it in to 4 and weighed each piece That is mighty heavy Damian. Looking back in time it amazes me how the Egyptians built those pyramids with no powered machines to help. Rollers and block and tackles and a of of blood sweat and tears I presume \ \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tractor Twitcher Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 After been put on red alert to come into work today following one of the most insane days at the "office" yesterday, I've just had the phonecall to say I can go back to enjoying my Sunday off. So i'ts a hearty cooked breakfast for me first followed by a catch up on here and then a little later maybe a hike outside with the camera.

CMB Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 taking Harry out to some playgroup thing near Linton, and to see his little friend!....well it is his 1st birthday!!! ;D ;D ;D Dipping into this topic a while ago I thought "Harry" was a pet name for your tractor, and you would occasionally take him on an 'outing', but something seemed amiss when you tried teaching Harry to say his first words..

CMB Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Besides the usual cow feed/muck, I helped gather up two sheep to take to slaughter. This required taking the livestock trailer across snow fields '& down (frozen) tracks and inevitably the series 3 landrover found itself almost 'hull down' in a giant puddle. we needed 2 chains, 2 shackles, 1 David Brown and 20 minutes of idiocy t pull it out. All good experience tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
