This machine might quietly change how small crews pour concrete

Not sure how many people here have looked into the Carmix ONE 4x4 self-loading mixer, but it’s an interesting setup. One machine that loads, mixes and moves concrete on its own, no separate mixer or loader needed. For tight job sites or smaller crews, that could be a big shift. What is surprising is you do not really see them out in the field much. Curious if anyone here has actually used one.

Old Machine, Still Rolling Strong in Texas

This John Deere round baler in Texas still looks ready to work. It takes messy hay and turns it into clean, tight rolls. Simple and powerful. Some machines just do not quit. Anyone still running older balers like this?

On the way to my lunch break I saw a new type of equipment I never saw before. What was it? It has a big circle digger on a tracked machine.

I couldn't get a picture because I was driving but it looked like a digging circle like on the steam bucket diggers but it was on a tracked machine. it looked like a normal sized catapiller

Finding a replacement track for my mini excavator

She's a 1.8 tonne mini ex. 7"wide rubber treads. About 124" around. Are treads all standard sizes? Can I just buy one off of Amazon?

Knuckle boom cranes in tight spaces - what do you prefer?

I’ve been doing small lifts in tight residential and commercial areas, and I’m curious what other operators prefer when space is limited. Knuckle booms seem to work better for me in alleys, fenced yards, and downtown spots. What’s your experience?
