(ok - figured out where to post my intro.) Hi Folks ! Looks like a great site you all have here. digger242j pointed me in this direction, so I wanted to introduce myself. Another guy from Pittsburgh area. I am currently running a small excavating operation (Mostly bobcat services), and plowing/de-icing in the winter months. Grew up in Western New York where I first plowed snow during the Blizzard of 77'. This was while I was in highschool, working as a mechanic for an excavating company. After a couple of years, I went back to school and went into the electronic/computer field. After 20 years, decided I was real tired of working for a corporation, so I am trying to break out. And since you can never get the dirt digging out of your blood, I only had one place to run. I still doing computer/network consulting while I get my excavating biz into high gear. Not a lot of snow pushing this season in South Western PA, but I am tossing a lot of salt to pay the bills. My small operation can bee seen at my web site Hope I can contribute to the discussion. Thanks ! Brent
Hello Brent, welcome to HEF. Looks like you have roughly the same operation as I do, mini-x and skidsteer etc. Hope we can learn from each other. :waving
Thanks for stopping in!!!:drinkup I'm interested in hearing about your hammer and grader. There's a thread running somewhere on hammers, how about giving your input? Feel free to start one on the grader in Compact Equipment Attachments!
Welcome to the forum Brent. That digger242j guy got myself, as well, involved with this forum. good to see another Pennsylvanian on board!
