Before and after continued. Nothing like a good end to a project. Now on to the next land clearing project!

Really nice project and real nice work. i do have a question though and i'm not questioning your work but i just don't know.being from Louisiana and looking at the picture where the drive way slops down to the garage door what keeps water out of the garage when it rains? We don't have basements here and if my drive way sloped down like that to my garage i would have 2' of water in it in about an hrs time.
again nice project,
Thanks

Thanks guys! Big Bri- no worries, it is very hard to see in the picture but there is a drain in the driveway just before the garage door. It spans the driveway and will handle large amounts of water draining down to the bottom of the driveway. So far, we have not had water in the basement in the 40+ years the house has been built.

Thanks jayste! I'm glad you all enjoy the pics.

Next up is a pipeline job that I completed last Sept and Oct. I had to mow 40 mi of a pipeline up near the Canadian border in NH and VT.

First up, the 1st day on the job:

So as you can tell, the first 3 days of the job did not go well. After trying various ways for a few days to get the machine out, including renting a 50D to try to pull the machine out, I found a local contractor to bring out a 322 excavator and lift the T320 out. Such is the life of a land clearer :confused2:.

After that "great" beginning, the rest of the job went pretty smoothly. Here are the rest of the pictures from that job. Sure was nice to work amidst some great scenery!

Here are a couple more pics towards the end of the project:

Maybe I missed this part, but . . . . which cutting width mulcher do you have: 50 or 60?

Either way, do you ever have problems since the cut width isn't as wide as your machine?

 

[ARPlante]

RAW- I have a 60" cutting width head. And no, I don't have any issues yet with the cutting width being less than the width of the machine.
