    I gotta say Chris, I've been watching you for a long time and never seen someone so much on the same page as your uncle John, you guys don't even have to speak and still know what needs to be done next, you work awesome together even without speaking or direction, , thought I should mention it and give credit where its due.

      operators destroy machines because they dont own them. when you spend $100k plus you tend to take care of your machines

      Operators who don't foot the repair bill I'm guessing..

    • @george8873
      @george8873 2 роки тому +1

      Dunno if you follow C&C Equipment on here, but they've been repairing a dozer where the operator was pulling logs at a 90 degree angle to the winch and ended up destroying the winch, causing 10s of thousands of dollars worth of damage. There was so much torque/pressure that it practically ripped the winch housing off the back of the dozer and made the drive shaft look like corkscrew pasta. Also messed up other stuff. It's a mess and was all because of operator error.

    Hey letsdig18, from a fellow dirt contractor its nice to see another contractor always giving their customers top notch work. I've been doing this since 1991 and not many make their jobs look like yours (and mine). Excellent work my friend your attention to detail is fabulous.
    For those who are not familiar with dirt work, not every customer wants this high quality work, so they choose the lowest bidder.............. we love those customers too, because we get to make more money fixing those errors at a later date.
