New toys on the way

[bryan1]

G'day Guy's,
Well went down the coast today to look at this backhoe I want to buy and I found the big problem with the hoe. The shaft that is welded to the body was shonky and had broken so it will be an easy fix. Anyway for 6K it is a cheap buy.



While I was the the yard I went for a wander and found a remote rock screening plant sitting there rusting away.






On the way home I rang the guy who owns the yard and asked him about the rock screening plant, I near fell out of the car when he said $1,500 for both the vibrating screen setup and the conveyor that attaches to it ( not shown). All I need now is to get started on the small rock crusher I'm designing then all that road base I need to make the 1.5k road from front to the back of the farm and another K for internal roads can be made on the farm for little cost.

Cheers Bryan

The tires on that thing look almost brand new! Looks like you got yourself a good deal!

Get yourself a powerful sandblaster as well to get rid of the rust prior the paint job.

Wow, I wish I could find a deal like that. I don't have much use for a back hoe, but if I had one, I'd sure find something
