I was Part of the team that built this drill at Cubex Winnipeg. It was built for Cat Finning in BC. Was built to build roads going to remote places that's why no drill pipe on board.. Must have done its job more than once if it sold twice. Had a great time building and testing this drill.

The first logging company I went to work for had a 3800c log loader. It was a good machine. I believe about 10 years ago it went to Alaska. It had a pierce grapple on it.

Complete and restorable. Look at some of the junk machines that Lakeside Sand + Gravel in Ohio turned into showpieces Many were that bad. Example 1926 P+H 206 Crane, came in looking like that Ruston.

Looks far better than it probably did new. Always wonder if there’s a method to load a logging trailer like that without using a crane? Could they somehow self load by backing the truck under…? Way too heavy to ever lift by hand?

As a “ Young up and coming “ as the truck bay mechanics would refer to us apprentices back in the early 70’s at Cummins Ontario I entered the program about 1971. At 14 my first summer job was as a parts runner ( a job they created for me ) at Harper Detroit Diesel. Saying that my time was taken up around engines. All my close friends were into music, listening, and playing it. Other kids in our circle, the ones more free spirited all made the pilgrimage out west “ Going to thumb a ride to Van man “. I was signed up for 4800 hours so nose to the grindstone. As soon as I could get it together, the west beckoned and in a previously 1966 Chrysler 300 myself and a friend who soon after became best man at my wedding set off to do what every Canadian should do. go on a road trip. With a tent trailer in tow, we followed the sun. When we where kicking around the lower mainland one camp we set was up near Hainey on the old Dewdney Truck Road. One day out on an adventure I noticed there was some logging activity going on at Stave Lake just above the dam. There was boom storage there, and where doing a log sort. I got up early one morning, leaving Jim to slumber and headed over there to observe. The logging outfit was Simpson Brothers. I got talking to a driver who was picking up there and taking them to a mill in Whonnock where they had a log dump. He brought me down there to meet up with another truck driver Bill Eaton who drove a 66 KW LW-924 or the likes with water cooled brakes. Bill drove up the mountain to the steel spar where they where actively logging. Bill didn’t say much, but he was popular with the ladies along the route, they’d be out in the yard tending the garden, or hanging the laundry, old Bill came trundling along, give then a short toot, and tip his hand as a wave in truck driver fashion. When we left the road, it was straight up, and up. The only time Bill ever broke character is when one of the boxes jumped out of gear ! Bill didn’t expect that. The higher we got there were traces of snow in the draws, this was mid July. When we got to the summit it was a brilliant day, lots of patches of snow around, and wondrous scenery, mountain ranges, and lakes, in typical BC fashion. There was a problem however that couldn’t be ignored. Black Flies. Between your swarm, and the other guys swarm, we were lunch. The steel spar was brand new, still had all it’s windows, nice and shiny. In short order we were loaded and down we went. That Cummins 335, with a T-590 turbo, me with my feet half way up the fire wall to stop from sliding forward of the seat, it was a long trip down to study the rawness of the road build, with switchbacks, and log bridges, and me wondering how much water was left in that tank mounted across the frame rails. I didn’t know much about Jake Brakes when we left to go on that trip, but I knew the A to Z by the time I got back. Back down to Whannock, said goodbye to Bill, waited for my connection ride in the new 74 Western Star, back up to my car at Stave Lake, and the camp site, let’s say Jim could have been happier to see me that afternoon. He had thought of reporting me missing. RIP Jim. Soon after I got my ticket at Cummins I left. Drove for a couple of years, then bought a Cabover Kenworth, drove )that for a few years, then in 82 bought a new KW 100 VIT. Hauled meat and produce all over the continent. I was born in Scotland, dad drove his whole life there starting with horses. By the time he was 16 he had his heavy goods license, but found other work when we settled here in the closing days of 65. I was fairly steady hauling pork skins to the Mexican border at various location, and there was a bad freeze one year, that killed everything in “ The Valley “ I snagged a load of frozen orange juice concentrate in 45 gallon drums. Dad was with me on that trip, and we headed up to Vancouver with the load, and took a couple of days off while I got my feelers out for a reload. One of the days, I took my dad up there to Stave Lake. I just felt I wanted to stand on the dam, and take in the memory of my trip up the hill. Just to the west of the dam, is where Simpson Brothers had there shop. It was disheartening to see the equipment sitting there along the roadside, that new 74 Star, it had that west coast patina that comes with Mother Nature adoring everything with green moss. I hadn’t expected to see that outcome, but it’s a hard life for logging equipment, and the men who age with it. While I stood on that dam, I could hear men working with power tools somewhere in the woods, and I noticed a bloody great church ! It looked very old. I thought “ WTF “ I don’t remember seeing that before ? I went to take a look, when I could see in it, the floor was dirt ! Asked one of the worker in my disbelief of what I was looking at, he said it was a set from the remake movie We’re No Angels staring Robert Dinero, Shawn Penn, and Hoyt Axton, Hoyts mom wrote Heart Brake Hotel I heard. I think Bogart was in the original. They set the dam up as a State Line Border Crossing in the remake. The carpenters told me the church structure was sold, and was being moved somewhere up near 100 Mile House to a ski resort to be made into a restaurant/ bar. Thanks for your time, I still live back east, I worked out of Vancouver (Annisis. Island ) for 15 years, drove that 82 KW for 26 years, I’m 71 this week, and still drive ( part time ). Let’s do it all again ! Thanks Skadill ! I know where that comes from.

Thanks for the writing!!! Your a Historian and an author. Happy Birthday too! I know the area completely, I live right there. I have a book that was made about the Simpson families rich history and logging the area.. The Simpson shop was torn down few years ago, it is now a 6 lot subdivison waiting for the lots to sell.

@@skadill it was a pleasure revisiting my memory of the time and place, inspired by your passion for old logging equipment. About 20 years ago I was back at the sawmill in Whannock where the log dump was, it had been closed up for some time. You might not be old enough but do you recall an old woman I think by the name of Mrs Stewart who ran an old two story grocery store that was located on the south side of the road between the dam and Simpson Brothers? She was Scottish. Just curious, I stoped in to see her on a subsequent visit, but there where some sketchy people who where not keen on me having a conversation with her. Enough said. Thank you sir !

@@skadill maybe the name was Clarke ? The young driver of the 74 Star had red hair, and had recently moved west from the Ottawa Valley. About 10 years back I picked up a load of cedar shake to take U.S. side. The young guy who was running around getting everything done went by the handle of Happy. Always had a smile. Fire department showed up, as I guess the Mills fire detection system was triggered by the maintenance guy doing hot work on the log ladder bearing.
