[quote="RichardJW~"]I bet you must get an amount of satisfaction seeing it roll out of the yard! :thumbs_up:
Yes Richard i did,but the biggest satisfaction i got was a phone call from the chap
who stripped the tranmision that we pulled from this tractor on account of having
done over 9000hrs,he said it was about to have bearing failure because of a worn
out shaft,that then made it all worth while :thumbs_up:

Great pictures Paul :thumbs_up:
Jack,no were not reopening the open cast,but compacting it down with a
100,000cu mtr heap of clay, that were moving ten times around the site,
the soil under the weight of this heap is sinking down over a metre and half
which can then be developed on, its right next to the land fill.
