Olivetroad Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I went to a farm auction today with daughter #1 and son #2 to try and buy a tractor - came home with a nice hay trailer, but no tractorBut on the way home we saw this on the side of the road and we stopped to take some pics:Look at the size of the chain - that is a size 12 muck boot on top of ONE chain linkWe were having a good time until I tried to crawl through the clevis and got my head stuck: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucerne tractor Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Flip it over on a slab, it would make an awsum garage. Except maybe in a thunder storm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slpwlker Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Took one out of Co to Fl forgot the weight but it was pretty aerodynamic and was easy to see around on the trailer. Thats a whole lot of scarp metal there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olivetroad Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 I had a friend that used to work on the dragline that used that bucket tell me last night that the bucket we stood in has a 90 yard capacity and was the known as the small one - they also used a larger one! He said they dismantled the drag line and now it is in Wyoming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 It is amazing what those 4 legged 4 stomach critters can accomplish. They've done there share of deeds here. One is ripping the steering wheel off the gator and it ended up 30 feet from the machine. I've changed beams in the barn they have almost licked through.

Popular Post other dog Posted March 10, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted March 10, 2012 Great picture takin' job. I was looking for a picture of the "Big Musky" bucket I had, but I must have deleted it. It's in Ohio and the bucket is all that's left of what was once the world's largest dragline.I did find this one though... 3 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

randyp Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I was on the cat 992 one day in mines and was called on radio to come to shop to do a lil job. It turned out the lil job was take loader and turn a 120 yard dragline bucket upside down so they could do some weldiing on it. I did manage to get tooth tips under it without breaking any off, but you shoulda seen the dirt fly and heard the noise when I finally got that rascal up on its side, got it overbalanced and watched it flip. man, what a trip! Thas fore I knew Other Dog, so i dint have camera,,,,randyp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
