grease this loader up put fuel in it clean the air cleaner out did a couple
maintenance things to it and i think it's ready to go over and
start moving some old bin pads get that area cleaned up a little bit more
i had to put a new start button in this thing because it wouldn't start very well
yeah i didn't go with the chrome it with a little rubber plastic whatever you want to call it
it's pretty
i parked the loader just because i need more muscle either a jackhammer on a skid steer
i'll probably have to bring the back over here or maybe i can convince my buddy to bring his
excavator because it's over at my place and he can come over here with his thumb and he
can pick up all these little pieces here and throw it in a dump truck and haul it out of here
but here's the thing i dug this hole out as you can tell this wall to this old compressor
plant that was right behind these bins is so rebarred and there's so much concrete in it
that it's it's a beast so i thought well just maybe if i dug down deep enough the loader i might
be able to pry on this wall and it'll be able to break it off no no it didn't even touch it so
we'll have to do something else but maybe his big excavator that might be the thing to do but i'm
guessing we'll probably have to get a jackhammer and chisel that down but this eyesore will be
will be gone eventually and then you can drive semis and your augers across here
and it'll be very very convenient but uh kind of making a mess of things huh
so
truck's back in the building ben sheets are out and it's supposed to be like 70 degrees today
i figured it's about time to wear some summer gear so if you guys haven't checked out uh
our merchandise you're more than welcome to pick out one of these for well summer because it's
going to get nice and hot but anyways ben's just waiting on bin sheets so when he gets here we'll
load him and unload him and away we go so the bin guys had some time on their hands and we started
talking to him get out of the wind it's a little windy here and we're thinking you know what you
guys got some time do you want to patch that bin we got the bench sheets this is not a priority for
us we probably won't get at it for another couple years just because it's not a priority they said
sure we could do that so we're going to have them patch up this bin fix those holes and they're kind
of waiting on those bin sheets too so kind of a waiting game anyways they're making it happen
it's looking good you don't see a big hole in the side and the reason why there's a hole
those doors on this building ripped off and decided to punch a hole in it so yeah there's that
so
got him all loaded up he's ready to go we got our sheets that's awesome now we can get a bin put up
and he is heading to idaho so good luck buddy
safe travels oh it is windy ah that's normal in this country
so
when we bought this ford backhoe the guy actually had a couple jackhammers and he's like you know
what i don't know if these work but i'll let you have two of those and you can get them to work
awesome you can use them so we modified this one to fit on the backhoe because
the pins were not the right size for what the bushing size was on this uh bracket
so now we got it mounted on there let's go try this one out and see if we can get uh
get some concrete chiseled apart looks pretty gnarly if you uh if you ask me but
pretty sweet i think we're gonna have some fun and if this doesn't work we have another one to
try out so we'll see what happens but so far this backhoe has been a little beast runs good love it
so
well it works i mean it's not like hitting super super hard but it works it's gonna take a while
to chisel this thing down this old compressor plant type i mean this it's huge that's all
i have to say they poured so much concrete in making this pad for these big huge compressors
i dug down another two feet didn't even touch the bottom so i don't even know how
far down this thing goes there's no point for me to dig as far as i can because we
can't remove that so if we can just chisel these tops off we'll bury the rest of it and
you'll never know it's there and the trucks drive across it so it's not like we're gonna
it's not gonna hurt enough but we gotta chisel these things off because it's it's
kind of a pain in the butt to a workaround so yeah it's working i think he's having fun
you
