Koehring 1066E Video- Here is a picture i took last fall of the Koehring I got to dig dirt with in one of my videos. It was my first time ever in a excavator as you could tell by the video , ha,ha.
The machine was near Grand Haven at the time but now it sits in Ohio in it’s final resting place before it eventually goes to the scrap yard.
So many good old machines turned into scrap .
These are the machines that really did build this great country of ours and built by Americans , not other countries. Now days America makes very little steel as we continue to be totally dependent on offshore companies. In fact we don’t even make our own lightbulbs anymore and starting next year be buying 100% of them overseas. Very scary to think about.
Cat D-11R – I am busy working on the cab interior , got most of the side and rear panels mounted, got the seat built and mounted and the pedals. It’s just starting to look like a interior.
Northern Michigan Hail and Severe Thunderstorms – It was 75 degrees this morning and we got Hail, and possible Tornados in the forecast for today .
Have a great Tues. !!
