Had a great time digging in my dirt pile this past weekend at the Brownsville,PA show with perfect weather. No problems, only production. Digging in for a healthy bucket full.    A couple helpers who I trained to operate the dragline.  A nice pile from about 6-7hrs of steady digging.   One of my Old Caterpillar tractors we fool around with. This is a 1934 model Twenty - Eight with a very rare side seat arrangement pulling a Fifteen Trailer Patrol grader.

Nice boom! That looks like a show I'll have to get out to sometime...

Always enjoy seeing your dragline in operation. Are you pretty much complete with construction or do you plan to add the siding at some future point? There is something to be said for leaving the inner works visible. As always, wonderful craftsmanship!

I watched you move a few buckets of "overburden" Saturday while I was at the show. I have watched your build progress here on the forum over the years and it always amazes me seeing it in person. Would have liked to seen the C6 in action though.

The control station for the dragline looks like fun. Thanks for sharing.
