Re: Few snaps of D11R - Matilda

Yuck. Had to put a track back on an old 11R the other night.

Still, can't complain. Sounded sweet. Last of the V8's!

Re: CMN Photo Competition September 2013

Might try my luck. Can only get about 2 mins out of my old I6. Very special shovel. http://www.classicmachinery.net/forum/images/post_img/1158124473524c5d88c1b85.jpg URL of the original image: http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p124/rosspec/Trucks%20And%20Shovels/SSL25729_zps95dbb701.jpg

Re: CMN Photo Competition June 2013

Thanks allot. It was a rare time when this shovel had 'Hang time'

By the time the camera was set up that 930 was already backing under the hanging bucket.

Pure luck but am real happy with the results.

That's the newest machine and has a $60k LED panel light package.

4th from bottom. :wtf: :doh: Public right of way just lends to the rising costs of running these operations. Yes, but i bet if they did not comply with this they would not have got the operational approvals they needed. It,s all about working with local communities to be a "good neighbor"...

Re: CMN Photo Competition June 2013

Nice effects with that shot Ross :thumbup: Jeremy Thanks. Pure luck, no effects applied. Night settings with a 10 second exposure. The shovel just dropped its first 120 ton into that 930E when the camera exposure ended. You can tell by the trailers that he just lifted the bucket and started to swing.
