It’s actually a 2007 peterbilt with a cat c16, 18spd, and 625hp. It’s a monster! I would love a rear mount swing cab next but the crane company we rent from has such good rates and awesome operators it’s going to be hard for us to spend that kind of money to upgrade. Our crane in the grand...
We just got the log truck a couple months ago but it’s really nice having both. I haul for a couple other companies around us so it’s a pretty good money maker. The crane is great too, it’s always nice being able to use it whenever possible. I honestly don’t think i could give up either one...
It is really cool in the crane seat, a lot going on though. This crane was a manitex 40124shl. I want to try his new national nbt50 next he was telling me how impressive it is to operate that crane.
Here are some pics from Thursday. We did 4 pretty big removals here but only managed to get pictures of the first tree. Best part of the day was the crane operator/owner let me try running it. Really enjoyed it.
That chipper will fill that truck FAST! We usually only chip into it when we are using our kboom. With the lid on the kboom holds about 25 yards so that is our main chipper truck.
Haven't posted any pics in a while, finally starting to get back into the swing of things. We did this today, it was stone dead and had some nasty rotten spots.
Had a nice crane day yesterday. 6 white pines all right next to a brand new house on the mainline in Newtown Square. I actually got to meet Chris's uncle yesterday, what a great guy. Lots of chips came out of this job, little over 60 yards.
Haven't posted many pics lately but only have one from today. Did 5 Willow removals, rained pretty good most of the time but managed to get it done. Started at 9 and we were done by 2. Did about 60 yards of chips as well. I am not a fan of working in the rain!
Here are some pictures from this week. The first is a pin Oak removal, the other side tore out from the ice storm we had back in February.
Second set are from a White Pine Removal. This tree got hammered in the ice storm as well.
Last couple are from a white Pine removal in a...
Here is a quick video of us chipping some Spruce at our local country club. This chipper is a beast and it is so nice to be able to process larger wood right on site.
