Had an opportunity to go to work a bit late today, so I unloaded all that concrete. This is Moonshine towing my M101A3 with my fat ass in the driver's seat.
How did you unload the trailer?

it didn't take me too many loads like that before I bought a dump trailer
Wao, $44.50 a ton we pay here $5.5 a ton.
Yeah, it's super expensive. Next time I'm just going to get a dumpster.

Crew?!? Lol
It's me my shovel and a mini excavator. Luckily with operator today. Quite the chore spreading a 200lb 10x25 50mil Epdm liner by ones self
Although it was much more fun the days i was piloting that beast from the air conditioned cab.

Been there done that many many many times.
I have a 6x12 Bobcat trailer that I added 2' sides to haul trash and construction debris. One day at the dump a red neck looking fellow next to me dropped this knowledge on me, "Get a chain and tie it to an old tire and put it at the front of the trailer, then hook it to the dozer to pull the trash out". I thought he was nuts, and the tire would slip past the trash, but I decided to give it a try anyway. The night before was restless (like the night before a concrete pour). I was worried about the tire slipping, and would the equipment operator at the fill participate in this idea. When I backed up to the spot where the dozers were working, one operator made a hand signal for pulling. He drove right up to the back of the trailer and I hitched on with a clevis. Then the dozer backed up and my trailer was empty. I don't mean to get sappy but this is true, watching the trash come off the trailer ranks up there with the birth of my daughter and wedding day. I can remember standing there in complete shock and bliss wanting to hug the dozer operator.
You're right ... using a dozer during the birth of our son would have been much easier.

Should wrap up tomorrow. Who's next ?
Found an alternate use for the lift, blades sharpened with having to take them off!!
Good call on the safety strap.
That looks awesome. Salute. Must be a good client. Any guy that builds a house with duel exhaust is cool with me.
