That's interesting to me, I've never seen a steel septic tank before. Just concrete one's in my local area. Thank's for sharing.
Cheer's, Neil.

Re: My Dads 1:1 Equipment
 
Maybe steel was cheaper? All i know is its 50ish years old. No problem. Thanks for commenting.

The motel was built in the center of Nebraska, Most of the time my dad lives in the NW corner of Nebraska. Was working there and got a video. We are shaping up this pile to drive over. I was able to get a video.

You got yourself a Polaris product :cool:... a fine tool for the farm, I've been using Sportsmans for yrs just b/c they're so heavy & oodles of reliable power!

We have had the sportsman for a while. the trailer is what we got. I would rather pull the trailer with my Rancher 420 (more power and faster).

Re: My Dads 1:1 Equipment
 
It sorta looks like you pulled that crusher to the jobsite with that lil Ford trk?

Looks like a great summer job for you to work at. A new property your family bought or improving one that you already had?

RCTech9 10-05-2012 11:47 PM

Re: My Dads 1:1 Equipment
 
We bought the property, demolished the motel and were selling it to JD next door. Yeah we towed the crusher with my Dads Ford.:eek: We only moved the crusher down the road .5 of a mile with it though. we moved it from where it was (70 Miles) away with a 8 wheel JD.

Re: My Dads 1:1 Equipment
 
It has been a while since i have updated the thread, about two weeks ago my dad purchased a John Deere 690-A. it is probably 30 years old, half the windows were broken out when he purchased it. I will try getting photos soon. we have been digging stumps out and changing the shape of a creek with it then one of our hired hands blew the cylinders that raise the boom. Also the controls are different than the 312BL.
Thanks for looking.

I forgot about that scissor lift. we have that one and one other indoor one. we also have a outdoor scissor lift. The Bobcat on the back is the T250 we still own that. We also have a HYDRO-AX.
