    Belting that you were in on the action with Daniel’s loading shovel. Been watching Ashville channel since just after its inception 4 years ago during Covid that lead me to Welderfabber then yourself all good hardworking honest men producing good content in its own right. Good luck to ya ✌️

      Thank you Todd, I was a bit worried that Daniel might turn out to different from his UA-cam character, I’m pleased to report he’s just as positive and warm in real life 👍
      As for Welderfabber, I wouldn’t have a channel without his constant encouragement (and nagging 😉) and I was honestly happy to see him in the tipping rain last Thursday
      Truth is we’re just people who care about the things we do and in the end your true character shows through, good or bad
      Thanks again, Al

    Hi Alex good job I noticed that you keep your feet on the front of the pedals on the digger's that's what I used to do not good on the full pedal when loading and unloading. Or on the leaver's, great watching brings back good memories. Take care.👍

      Yes John,
      I move so many different machines with so many different power outputs, I can’t get the precision I need by resting my whole foot on each pedal, that’s why I reverse with my right hand too (never both hands)
      I’ve come across many machines with the levers removed so it’s pretty important to be able to load & unload with the pedals
      I’m glad you’re enjoying the films, thank you 🤟

    Great video as always Alex, love the variation of machines, nice to see a track loader on the truck, remember driving one 40 years ago, have a good Bank Holiday pal.👍

    Another great video. But as a fellow class 1 driver & Scania driver (walking floors. Tippers. Wet tanker. Roro. Etc) if you have time can you do a video on your trailer?

      Thank you Mark, I did a little bit of an explainer when the R590 arrived but I could do a stand alone film about it, watch this space…

    Hi Alex how far a field do u deliver u seem to be every where having nights in your truck😊

      Normally, we remain within the North West and go home each night, we might get two or three long distance jobs a month
      We’re too busy to do haulage for other companies normally (but we can) this job for Welderfabber and Ashville was done because we have a long term relationship with both, as is the case with LiuGong Sales jobs 🤟

    Hi Alex can I ask why you put track motors to the front of the trailer when loading pls?

    • @Stillgotallmyfingers
      @Stillgotallmyfingers  Місяць тому +1

      Hi Liam, thank you for watching 🙏
      It’s an Industry standard to load excavators with the track motors towards the front of the trailer
      If the machine is parked on the trailer with the spring loaded idler sprocket against the neck or dunnage, the spring could allow enough movement in the load to work the securing chains loose
      The second reason, that I can personally attest to, is that excavators climb low-loader ramps better with the motors first 🤟

    Your very modest Alex, did you need an escort vehicle to go to Ashvilles !

    • @Stillgotallmyfingers
      @Stillgotallmyfingers  Місяць тому

      Thank you 🙏
      No, it was a fairly heavy (and high) combination but not as wide as a thirty tonne digger (3.5m) so it was just me on my own 🤟
