Two thumbs up 👍👍 for crawler operators of times passed. And this young fellow has got it down pat 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@HansOvervoorde 2 года назад

This is machinery at its purest. Every single detail of it steals my heart. That low RPM sound is so very sweet to my ears. I'd love to smell the grease, oil and fumes. I must be careful now, the wife may become suspicious. After a couple of hours, that operators back must hurt crazy. Wonderful video, very appreciated.

@thomaslemay8817 2 года назад

Nearly as difficult as driving a team of draft horses trained for logging operations. Big powerful and when they go they go at a run from a standing start. You must keep up and avoid having a log dragged over you .you can be on either side of the log or if you're crazy you can stand on top.

@imapaine-diaz4451 2 года назад

Here we see the origins of the continuous tracked vehicle which Ben Holt of Stockton Ca. later named the "caterpillar" tractor. Holt was in mostly continuous competition with CL Best tractor company until their merger in 1925 to create the Caterpillar Tractor Company, now one of the largest heavy equipment manufacturing corporations in the world.

I really impressed how well and quick he slewing clutches work,I do'nt know why I thought early machines suffered from poor steering, Probably my vague understanding of WW1 British tanks which was very crude in that department. Best and Holt had a head start and considersble expertise. Brilliant video

@pacificcoastpiper3949 2 года назад

Early caterpillar crawlers were pretty snappy too

@pvtimberfaller 2 года назад

If I recall correctly tanks had two steermen and had to change gears to turn. Look up the tank chats/British tank museum channel.

@DARANGULAFILM 2 года назад

@@pvtimberfaller Steering with braking each side of a differential subtracts power because the stalled driver causes increase in the rotational speed of the opposite free driver. In effect you change up to a higher speed but less powerful gear to the free driver. The secret is to allow momentum, then snatch on the brake lever in several short stops rather than just drag on it and rely on the engine alone to power the free driver around. External brake bands are a little self-energising in forward direction. They tend to be less efficient in reverse. Modern machines with hydraulic motors add power to the free driver in a turn. It is indeed wonderful stuff. It is terrifying to imagine what that machine would do to a driver going over a crest then dropping down on the other side. Sitting so far rearwards of the centre of pitch motion, the driver would be launched. There is a lot of exposed mechanism just waiting to embrace him on landing.

@simonworman7898 2 года назад

Yeah I do know a wee bit driven D8's of most vintages day after day to earn me corn !together with Fiat's, Trak marshalls and Landini/MF on the farm, In fact early British Tanks had 2 bokes each with a spanner in hand nick named "lefty and righty"

I lived and worked on a ranch in south Texas 40 years ago or so with the nearest neighbors 5 miles up the road. Many was the night I went sleep to the sound of a hit-and-miss engine at night that was miles away but carried many miles on the dead still air! Not shure what it powered but I figured it had to do with oil wells. Occasionally I would here something that sounded like a massive jet taking off on the middle of nowhere and later found out that they were bleeding air from a natural gas pipe line! Great excitement when you go for weeks with absolute quite, except for the coyotes at night. Well also those nap of the earth flying airplanes going to and from old Mexico!!!
