    Mike, There is nothing like having that one good friend, the kind that you can be trusted to be there for you, and it looks like Aaron is that man. Just talking with someone like that helps order your tasks as well as your mind, and keeping it light is a great part of that and makes the work a lot easier. Your badinage during the closeout of a video is damn precious, and I treasure that portion as much as the operating. Finally, as I've said before, love your Hyundai's, both units seem to be as capable as any other machine out there. Take care Mike (and Aaron), stay safe!!!

    Many years ago, I think it was 1980, I was digging for a emergency generator diesel tank at Elderton high school, Elderton Pa.
    The boss told me to take one more bucket out of the bottom, I broke a 4” line that nobody knew was there, no idea where to shut it off and it drained the water tank very quickly! That hole I dig for a thousand gallon tank filled in seconds. Seeing how close you are to the water tower reminded me of that! Lol

      😂 I question ED The actual shape of The tilt Bucket when it was setting on the pallet, However when I seen you load the first load of dirt into a truck it soon became clear that it is custom Manufactured to use on an excavator with your thumb on it I approve It fit like a glove curled up

    This job's so very nicely done. 👍 especially with the first developments that "turned into a messy gumbo."
    From my farm days back in the 50s n other job site experience I get nervous seein a open door on a standing truck especially with operating equipment nearby.
    Once a contractor customer had a brand new panel van parked too close on a storage facility build site... side door was open. I'm a NCCO Operator on a 2592 Manitex Boom Truck and asked him to move his van. It was parked inside the operating radius he was working from it.... he hooked me up to relocate a large bundle of roof trusses. I asked him twice again to move his truck, he declined, said it'd be alright. My load line was plumb. A Straight lift, he said to get up on it. As one end of the bundle left the ground it whipped around and smacked his door 90° back around into the side panel of the truck.... Of course it was ultimately my fault. I shouldn't have picked up until he moved the truck. The buck stops at the operator. Broke my heart they never called asking for me after that when previously they'd call n wait to schedule me on their job.
    That 2592S was a stout little machine. 92' of main 18' jib plus a stinger in that configuration. Don't like them open doors. 🤔
