Old + Weird Stuff at Lakeside Sand + Gravel - May-July 2016

- The Lakeside collection differs from many others, in that it focuses on very early machines. Many of these are a bit weird, as designers tried to figure out how they should work, or had to work around existing patents.
The HD-7 was restored in 2015. It had been hoped to find some better tracks for it, but eventually the tired old ones went back on. See "Mounting Tracks on an HD-7" and "HD7 Track + Blade Installation - Part 2". Like all early hydraulic machines, the blade is very slow.
The tracked bottom dump wagon was built by Euclid Road Machinery, later Terex. The loose track design was common at the time, notice the very deep guide teeth. A similar competitor was Athey, who also made loose tracked logging arches. Imagine operating it for a 12 hour shift.
Isn't that a nice Cat 50!
The little half swing Bear-Cat shovel was built by Byers, of Ravenna Ohio. It is the little brother of the pinkish-orange half swing hoe at Brownsville. Somewhat odd to operate, for example, the swing lever operates backward for a left side machine. All of the machinery is densely crammed under the high deck. I have looked in there, and still have no idea which gear or clutch does what. This is an expert level operator, struggling to get it to do anything. "Does this beat that horse and slip scraper we were using!"
The Moore Speedcrane is the first Manitowoc, built in 1930. The design details of it look like a miniature 3900. Note that it has power boom lowering, via the swing/travel clutches, and the big lever you pull up on to engage the boom hoist. The swing / travel shift lever has a neutral position for boom operation. The boom was being lowered to install cable guides on the boom point, to allow faster swinging in bucket work.

It is nice to see these old equipment reborn and used to show them off great video
Some really good stuff
This guy is my new CZcams hero. Guys got enof stuff to put on he's own show. Well done.
Then I remember how my dad used all this stuff to build roads and quarry back in the day no wonder he was give out when he got home beautiful thanks fellows
Old skool from the past ....I love it.
THNXS for the upload.
That Bear Cat Jr is really something! I'd like to have a 'mini' face shovel like that.
It really is. That thing is friggin cool.
I would love to find one like that as well. Maybe I will build one..
That bloke in that little green shovel sure can run it
Yes, he's the pit owner, but an active daily operator, grew up running machines. He doesn't sit in the office all day. That was one of the first machines the pit had, and was restored in time for his father to see it.
Wow ! That Northwest dragline probably didn't have that nice of a paint job when it was new.
I wonder if all the dirt on the earth was loose when these machines were developed LOL!
Just pissing in the Wind on that orange AC Dozer for the first 5:30 of the video..!!
wow, a full set of adjustables !
Nice collection
why does it come ot mind that the guy on the dozer only uses it for transportation
Buck Wheat seeing how he’s the owner of the whole company😂 I’m sure he can do what he wants with it
Colombia Bucaramanga lo mejor para hoy los operadores como yo
Are they just playing around for fun? Or restoring stuff for others
Pure fun. Nothing is more fun than solving problems.
do you know what the bearcat jr weights?
I have a toy model of that orange colored articulated dump truck. I forget what the name of it is but i believe it was made by Nylint.
Nylint brought out their orange Tournarocker No.1300 in 1951. The open cab was fitted with a white plastic driver and a complete toy is almost impossible to find today. In 1953 Nylint brought out a revised yellow Tournarocker with an enclosed cab and larger wheels. This later version also came out in orange up until it was discontinued in 1957. In 1961 Nylint released their orange "Hydraulic Dump, No.4600 which isn't a true replica of any machine but it does somewhat resemble Lakeside Sand and Gravel's Allis-Chalmers rocker.
Allis with the 2 way blade. Push some pans
is this a museum? or just some guys that hate changing hydraulic hoses?

EVERY YEAR AS AN OPEN HOUSE
You got it. Hydraulic hoses are a pain.
I'm glad there is someone keeping history alive. And not scrapping all of the treasures that built america
@@highdesertstudios1901 Very glad!
