No problems Jim. Glad you like it. I'll be finalising a series of video tutorials in the next little while which will showcase all of the abilities of the machine control from the seat. Let me know if you're interested and I'll keep you informed.
Love the videos mate thank you very helpful! Can you please make more videos? How do I create a horizontal offset? Like if I have to box a road out at 1m behind back of kerb how would I go about that?
Hi Nate. That's no problems. It combines steering horizontally to a line (to outer edge bucket) by 1m.....then using surface to grab height off inner edge of bucket. 2 assumptions: 1) whoever has put your file together has strung the lip or back kerb line you are steering to. 2) your bucket is wider than 1m
Stegg how do you get the machine to dig to a line like that? does it still need a surface loading for the trench? or can you do it by just loading up a 3d polyline ?
Hi Anthony. Digging to polylines (or creating your own to dig to) is not covered in this video. You can certainly create your own 3d polyline in the file or even create from the digger. Ideal for sewer or stormwater installation on line and grade!!!
@@anthonydowd8180 No mate. Surface excavation is used to dig out roads, wetlands or to dig utilities below a finished height (minimum requirements). Digging to a line is different and also necessary in some applications like stormwater and sewer digging where the trench (ie pipe) needs to be on grade and not relative to the surface at all.
Awesome!! Thanks for teaching!!
Very informative thank you

@@steggcivil that's great goes that negate the need for a surface ?

Cheers stegg much appreciated
@@anthonydowd8180 No worries mate. Mark.
