NewHolland2 Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 looks a intresing varied day of late for you mart, the local docks down here use a bunch of old volvo artic dump rigs for the same job , they have extended sides on them to take a tad more than designed for, marcus will have seen them for sure Indeed Sean a fair number of different things been on the go will be back to getting the cattle home at the end of the month too. The fertiliser is a totally different side of things to get into but quite well paying and a fine job when there's not much else going on Lovely photographs Mart, always nice to catch up with what you get up to. The 8080 looks in fine fettle and that Sennebogen handler looks like a very impressive machine Thanks David, the 8080 is a well looked after old girl and still does a great bit of work. The Sennebogen is quite a thing to listen to working, quite an engine note it has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdc Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 There's always a bit of a spill from the grab but it's all cleaned up with the bobcat in the end and just gets added to the last load I'm sure that's the stuff they bag up for me. Good photos - especially the old 8080 still going strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
