Awesome video!!! 👍

Never seen using a 2' level to plumb a pile we always used 4' on pipe pile H beams concrete piles.

Don't get between pile and leads!

@@scottied67 Seriously, just saw this video come up again, and come on, have some sense, people. You have a steel pile that weighs what, 4,000 pounds (my guesstimate)? And then the leads are essentially immovable while you're loading, so your first impulse is to get between the two ton swinging dick and the giant stack of immovable steel tubing? Get the fuck out of there, literally. Guide that shit in if you have to, but do it from outside, mind your hands, and don't do this stupid shit on camera, ffs.

Long hours in the heat can make you forget things. If you've put in work under those circumstances I'm sure you could understand. GETTIN IT!!!

I just start pile driving, but with a boom truck and it’s so hard for me to do it also my truck is 4 ton max capacity and the hammer we are using it’s 4,000 pounds and boss wants me to pile it my self I don’t think that’ll be possible I’m trying to do that today with no guides and no leads sounds like a crazy idea 💡 can anybody give me any advice on n this one please
