I’d also like to see it work sometime, LOL we’ve been so slow around here lately. It’s a ship unloader for dry bulk cement, on a good day it pumps 500 tons per hour into a 20 inch pipeline into our silos that hold up to 27,000 tons of cement, it’s portable and all functions are operated by remote control.

It’s the economy that’s killing us; nobody wants to build anything right now.

Sometimes I’ll operate if one of the guys needs a break. I could train a 10 year old to run it; it’s just like a big video game with two joysticks. I have to keep it running so I stay onboard resetting alarms, watching gauges, and repairing anything that fails.

Airjack, there's nothing wrong with our economy if the press would shut the hell up! Interest rates are near an all-time low, but the Liberal press is doing everything they can to make it sound like we're drowning.
