Well, I’ve bought a clamp that lets me film from my driving position in one of the Sennebogens or the Case loading shovel so some of these clips are a bit experimental. You’ll see me doing a tour of the yard in the Case, early morning and, needless to say, in the rain, then something similar in the Sennebogen 835. I then set it up to film me balding a load in the Copex with our John operating the shear, you can get an impression of the reach from the operators point of view, also, how restrictive the view is through the security guard. Unfortunately I can only film in wide angle as the camera focuses on the guard at any other focal length, we have the same problem behind the grill in the shear cabin.
As usual you’ll see our wagons and various tractor and trailers tipping etc. There’s a tour of the shear installation, I think most people will agree that it’s a pretty tidy setup. For the people who want to see the older stuff the Jones crane and Foden dumptruck were working a couple of days this week. You’ll see a quick clip of my 835 with a Caffe Nero sign in the grab, that’s because I like a coffee in Caffe Nero early on a Sunday and I posted something related to this on Instagram. I’ll see how I get on with the new clamp, it opens up new filmmaking possibilities for future posts. I don’t have the time for elaborate editing so it is what it is.
