Like an older gentleman told me one time”the harder I worked in life the luckier I got” Congratulations Chris you deserve it!

That is the biggest part of luck . The trick is making sure that hard work is deliberate and not just a symptom . I know plenty of folks who would own every thing if the only grade they got was for effort .

But wouldn't it be a simple thing to have a shelf that comes out from beneath the door whenever the door is openned? That way you could wipe your boots before you step into the cab. Some of these operators don't stay on the path when they're walking around.

@martymartin2894 7 ай бұрын

KZfaq pays very well if u have a half million subscribers or more, fair play to him I only discovered his channel recently but I see his videos go back years so he's worked his way up with subscribers and stuck with it. KZfaq money alone would pay for these machines every month and then he gets paid for his contracts. So it's win win for him.

To keep scratches on the downlow, you might want to look into a clear mask film to apply over the sides. It's effectively like a thick bonded Saran wrap made to reflect chips and scratches. Either way, quite nice to see a new whip.

I'm still a pilot controls man myself, I can just feel what I'm doing through the controls better and you don't have to worry about electrical problems.

@NFSGamerful Жыл бұрын

Hey Chris, love the new machine, i do have a question or maybe a tip (even for you). Why arent you pushing the back of the bucket into the ground as a pendulum sort of to pull out stumps instead of just raising the boom? If you push out the stick and curl in your bucket, you use the back of the bucket for leverage and you're a lot stronger that way. I use it in demolition to break out reinforced concrete foundations so should also be applicable in your field
