Hi, Folks.
Jeez, it's quiet in here. Have all the grader operators/blade hands retired? Or are they just 'snoozing' on the job?

Not many of them about mate .In our country we firmly believe that all scrapers and dumptrucks should have to put up with rough haulroads where you can't get out of 2nd gear and overloading them so they can't work for more than a week without burning a diff out or frying a tranny or engine.Apparently,this is more cost effective than a hiring a grader...................what a load of sh*te

grader dont use that swear word if most firms down here seen one they would think aliens had landed

Hi, Go Back.
Funny thing that. I have been the 'Phantom' on a few jobs now, boundary riding for scrapers mostly but occasionally for ADT's or ordinary road-going tippers hauling on site. I've done it in W.A. and in Qld but I can't remember ever doing it in N.S.W., and I had a few grader operating jobs there from time to time. STRANGE!
