I'm checking that one out(BoulderImages) and thinking they were at MNLA years ago?

If you can think of other boulder guys to check let me know.

I'll do it. There's no way they aren't overweight unless they have a permit.

I'd name the companies that do it but that doesn't seem like the best idea.

Couple pictures from the fair:






mmmmmmmmm



I want one of these bad boys



Nice tow rig I saw



Onto todays pictures:

Finshed up some walls.









One little wall I'll be doing tomorrow morning:



Ended up looking kinda cool. It always looks better sodded though.





And one of the Doosan just sitting.

It's a Doosan DL6 motor.

Today I put it in power mode to sort some boulders and I couldn't believe how fast the machine was.

Some from today. SHould finish up on this site tomorrow or early Thursday then its a quick jump to another site 10 minutes away to the north.

Mornin'





Last little wall before jumping across the street



The sun was messing with my camera yesterday so here's a slightly better one



Across the road and trying to make grade work with a side-entry garage and 8' worth of drop and a house close by. I think it should work out fine though









Above shot



Claiming my work area for tomorrow. Real estate is tight especially when they are building 3 houses right by me, a siding crew and the concrete guys are right there as well



I broke down and washed my truck tonight, windshield was so dirty this morning I had a hard time seeing driving east into the sunrise.



My wheels are being dropped off by UPS on Thursday so I'm sure I'll have those puppies mounted asap and pictures WILL be taken

I bet it gets real crowded with everyone working. Do you have a plan or more just make it work?

Those Kubota's look good. Wonder how the 080 would compare to the CX75? But either one(057 or 080) would be nice(droolie smilie).

Bet you will be happy to have good wheels for the chariot again.

Ohhh I can't wait.

As for the 080 I liked it a lot and had a Kubota key on me at the fair so I could unlock and sit in them both The 057 was awesome too. I love the angling blade on it.

The CX75 is a perfect niche machine for us minus the damn knuckle boom. The Zero swing comes in handy on sites like these where we are cramped for space.

As for the walls ....the site superviser just calls me and tells me where they need walls and I do what I think is best while not crossing property lines for the future homeowners sake. They never know what they need because of which lot, housing plan, walkout or not, which way the garage is facing, conservation areas, etc. Too many factors. I'll have 10 walls in this place by the end of the week and I'm sure I'll be back at least once more considering there are still 10 lots left of the 27 total.

Jumping to these little walls that take an hour or two is a nice change from the big ones that take a week or more.

All the big walls have plans and engineered drawings though.

Two walls from today.

Didn't have much room to work with the second one. Placing and backfilling as I went.







Pictures from the main floor.























All done

Someone is laying down some nice stripes on this lawn IMO














Grade changed



















And what I've been waiting for 5 months for











Have a nice long weekend everyone! I'm headed to the cabin for some fun and fishing!
