Thanks. I enjoy making them. Gives me a excuse to get out. So that piece by the ford industrial tractor I believe is a air powered drill for use in under ground mining where they drill holes for dyno mite. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Amazing old iron to be seen there, Gary! Good way to work on your condition 😅💪🏻

Haha I just watched your frame lengthening video last night. Looks like your moving right along with that project. I really don’t know what I would do if moved to a area like you. I just so used to seeing clean metal. Thanks as always for watching and commenting.

Nice pieces of kit there..... no good to me the steering wheel is on the wrong side. Thanks for sharing

Haha, I can’t imagine driving with the wheel on the other side. One day I want to try to see how it is.

My first Richie Bros. experience was pretty cool. It was at their Perris, California location and I got to get up close and personal with about 7 and a half Caterpillar 660B scrapers.

Yea, pretty magical place with all that iron right there in one spot. Last auction they had a couple d10 and they were neat to climb around. Thanks as always

Well, they have a great deal of things there, but most of it is probably not very useful. When looking for those smaller trailers, pay close attention to the suspension. Many of them have poorly built suspensions. Especially the newer ones. Take care.

Yes! And always wonder why the stuff is at a auction. So, I really want a torsion beam suspension set up but it is not very common in the 7k axle setups. Thanks

Would that big aluminium dump carry cereal products? big volume but not a lot of weight. Like micronised corn, that sort of thing.

I’m sure it would do that well. When lived in Montana all the grain trucks to bring off the field were wooden sided. I also, noticed that allot of the semi truck end dump trailers are aluminum so not to sure that limits you like I thought. Thanks as always

That looked like a coal box on that truck. Of course, not a lot of need for coal trucks in Texas.
