hey guys my name is Jason with Mount Baker Mining and metals and on today's video we're
back at the gold mine I'm gonna try and get this pile of Rock through that Crusher right
there put it back on the truck and then we're gonna try and get it up this road all the way
up to my gold mine back over here because I got to get it inside level out the drift so we can
start working there I've got lumber on the truck I've got to get that up to the mine portal and
unloaded and to do that I gotta turn the truck around and I gotta back all the way up that road
now comes the real fun part this is the new section of road we put in this year
and that's about flat right there more or less so it goes up real real steep
real steep grade there let's see if I can make it with all this stuff on
everyone
oh my God what what and what over here over the bank I just barely have enough
room to get a truck in here and I've got more or less a cliff on that side
and a cliff on that side and I got the truck turned around there in that wide spot
probably the sketchiest 12 point turn I've ever done and I've milled up all this wood actually
this is all off my property down in Skagit County I've got another Channel if you want to see where
all this wood came from and how we got it milled up I'll put in the description below
but hey we're crushing Rock today so let's go get set up this is one of Mount Baker Mining and
metals 8 by 12 gas powered jaw Crushers here's the feed Inlet so I'm just gonna hook rocks in here
they're gonna fall down in here and through the Jaws once they get through the Jaws they'll come
down this Little Chute here I'm going to try and catch them in a in a sandbag there the
whole unit's run by this Honda gx690 great little motor and just Powers right through pretty much
anything I can throw in there this is a little demo unit as well so if you're interested in
picking this unit up give us a call or send us an email but now let's see how it works
foreign
thank you

well I don't know if you'd call that fun but I got 20 bags crushed and some of you are probably
thinking what in the world is this guy doing this is ridiculous just buy gravel and bring it up here
but there's no fun in that this is way more fun I learned a couple things one I spent more time
fiddle farting around with those sandbags at the bottom of the Chute than I did actually crushing
so I I don't know if the sandbags are the best way to go but then also it's way less work to
take two 20 or 30 pound rocks put them right through the crusher and then you got a sandbag
full rather than picking up you know the two dozen little tiny rocks those are the couple
things I learned but now what I'm gonna do let's see if I show you here I got the truck pulled out
I'm gonna just Crush three or four big piles here so that I'll have gravel if I ever need
more and I got this mountain of stuff behind me that's going to make real real nice Crush
there it is I estimate that things three feet in diameter two and a half feet tall and a pretty
much a cone so if someone out there can figure out the volume of that pile let me know it took me 400
seconds to run that which I think is about eight minutes or something like that and uh I could not
keep up with it there the hopper was never full there was all the Rocks were always going in the
jaw and as soon as I threw one in it it always went down into the jaw that thing is a beast one
person can't keep up with it two guys maybe um but it worked it made a fantastic pile of gravel
thank you
[Music]
foreign
there's our first two piles there's a little third one
and that's all she wrote for me today well I've decided what I really need there's an excavator
a little mini excavator because if I had a little excavator up here I could just scoop that pile up
run it through the jaw Crusher and I could take that whole pile as six inch minus bring it down
a nice gravel I can really use an excavator up here for uh road work lifting up stuff moving
stuff around and I was thinking I want to try something with you guys this little experiment
so what I want you to do is I want you to leave me a comment down below and hashtag or mention
your favorite Construction Company caterpillar Kubota John Deere Yanmar whatever help me out
get sponsored by an excavator company also you guys can tag them on your other social media
accounts let's get Jason an excavator so I ran this machine for about two hours today it didn't
even use a gallon of gas not even close and the jaw dies are still in perfect condition and again
this is a demo unit it's got about 22 hours on the motor and it's up for sale so if you're interested
check out our contact information it's down below or I'll put it here in the corner of the screen
give us a call shoot us an email these things go quick when we have these used and lightly demoed
pieces of equipment so if you're interested call us right away and don't miss out we also have
our smaller size available as well it's a 6x10 gasoline motor Honda and it's ready to go as well
so if you're interested let us know but now let's get these bags up to the mine look at them spread
out along the floor make it real nice and smooth for us okay now I got to get these bags up there
foreign
wanted to test out I figure I've got 20 bags there each way about 50 pounds a piece
so I've got a thousand pounds up there and I wanted to make sure my deck could hold that much
so when we wheeled out a wheelbarrow full of muck or something and a couple guys are standing on it
it can support that without just giving away so I'm gonna go up there and jump around a little bit
hopefully it doesn't collapse and then we'll get it spread out inside now comes the fun part we're
going to spread our gravel and I've got our first little section the drift cleaned out a little bit
still got some more to do but I wanted to show you what I'm dealing with I've got all this
Mucky wet soggy stuff and I want to get a pretty firm base that I can run the wheelbarrow down and
it's not like this for very far there's a really nasty smoogy spot here so let me get it raked out
a little bit get some of these bigger rocks out of here some of those old boards and junk
and then we'll get it spread and make a super free way for my wheelbarrow
all right here comes the fun part
foreign
[Music]
thank you oh there we go spread 19 bags
I'm Gonna Keep one bag for if the spot gets a little monkey I ended up going about 55 feet
and it actually did really good I thought I was gonna need more bass there was so much mock that
I thought I was going to lose it and just have all the gravel go into the muck the ground was held up
pretty good so here's my here's my plan I've got about 10 percent of one there thanks for watching
our video and if you'd like any more information on our jaw Crushers or any of our other mining
equipment you can check out our website I've got a link in the description below or I'll also put
a link right up here as an end screen so thanks again for watching and we'll see on the next video
