I think I know why you speak of.(the welder) I always enjoyed his videos. I had followed him since he was still at home I think. His videos were always good to watch. I have searched around much for him.I did start to follow his best friends videos but slowly those drifted off my radar.

Some of Stretch's old welding videos, the kind I liked, were up again under different name. Either they were taken down or i couldn't find them again shortly after.

Mechanic Steve taught me some things and I miss him. Last month I believe it was, he posted some new content. I hope he'll soon be back to his normal schedule of posting.

Watch the last two minutes of his latest. I was laughing.

Link to his latest

When he 'parked' the new machine I saw a crane next to it. Them I do remember a pettibone crane he had who his friend has now. (jesse) So At this point I am not going to try to keep track of his machines. LOL It was nice on a previous post to see his old small green and black excavator and also the Ford tractor. This latest dozer video has a surprise end as Carver has said. I think much of it is all about content.

I also saw a glimpse of another large excavator that was near the crane. His large Hitachi was still on top of the cliff, & different colors. You can also see the tracked dump truck in primer without the man lift in the bed, so that will be a nice overhaul video when he's done with that. And yes, he needs some guardrails!

I'm wondering what he did with the rock and lightpost from the previous video, it looks like he had to take it out for this new work.

I think this is probably my favorite episode thus far. I almost died laughing when he drove the Toyota up the hill and then it tumbled over the edge! I really enjoy the drone footage! Can't wait to see the refurbishing videos on this one.

The Toyota rolling off the cut bank had me rolling off the chair laughing. I did notice it came close to the post of his building though.

Another dry humor quote he said was "might as well have two D7's". Lol

Something about, "good things come in pairs, yeah you're right!"

Or the time he bought the TL12 skid steer and the TL10 skid steer “because he didn’t want to let his buddy down and not buy the 10 but he didn’t want to let that stop his dream of owning a 12” IMO a TL12 skid steer is too big. If you need that much muscle you should use a dozer instead. Andrew has likely came to the same conclusion considering he rarely uses the TL12 vs how much he uses the smaller ones.

He’s had a Hitachi 100 excavator for a long time. I think that’s his biggest excavator. That was probably the first piece of equipment he bought that wasn’t ready for the metal recycler.

I think he uses all his equipment in this one and for what I think is the first time he has a helper running equipment next to him.
He is very good with that big excavator.
And for sure, his next video will be showing off his new bulldozer he said he was looking at. Will make this one look small.

I think he should worry more about that big boulder sitting not far above his yellow equipment trailer.
Have to wonder what happens when he gets two or three inches of rain on that exposed hill now.

That’s not even close to all his equipment.

It’s a 988 wheel loader. He already has it but I haven’t seen it in use in a video yet. I doubt rain water erosion on the solid rock hill is much of a problem. I don’t know why he wouldn’t drill and blast that rock vs beating up equipment chipping away at it.

He showed the D7. He just got a 988 cat loader. It was seen in a video but no video yet specifically about it.

I know but I’m fairly sure the “will make this one look small” was referring to the 988 not the pair of d7s.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Either way, he's amassing quite a collection of old equipment. He has probably raised the value on used equipment in his area.
