Conveyors where built by the owner of the gravel pit about 30yrs ago for his son. It's been featured in some trade magazines dealing in the gravel business. He takes it to all of our HCEA events for the kids to play with. My kids played with it when they were little too. I didn't get a good shot of the Sauerman dragline part but it can be seen. That part takes some skill using both hands and you have to turn the cranks in opposite directions to work it. Sort of like rubbing your stomach and patting your head jumping on one leg.
I think Larry used to sell the conveyors and the shaker when he had time to make them up. They were 1/16th scale and matched the Smith Miller Trucks from the 50's.
