First Time On A DOZER I Need Practice!!! - Digger Girl Diaries Week 23 

Reminds me of building the footbridge for Hailes Castle. The access on the south side was a footpath - so I sat a couple of blokes with chainsaws on the bonnet of an airmobile landrover, Repeated with a four-tonner. Finished with four on a ten-tonner. Thank you Isambard Kingdom Brunel.

I was feeling quite proud of what I've achieved this week, however after watching you I feel slightly disappointed. 🤣😂 I'm going to have to go for a rest now, I'm worn out just watching you. 👍🤗

Note to oneself…. Small leckky chainsaw 🤔 great video again 👌🏻😎

Fantastic video Amy. Maximum effort as always and more power to you! Keep up the good work and looking forward to the next one! 👍💪✌️

Great video Amy I’ve been struggling with my mental health lately and your videos and sandy’s have helped a lot love how you never give up and always tackle everything head on and always keep going your a credit to your industry well done for making your own pathway in the digger world 👍💪♥️💙

brilliant video as always can’t wait for the next one ❤❤❤❤❤😊👍

Great video as always, i see the electric digger being a huge faff having to take it off site to charge every day for you in the middle of nowhere

Hi Amy another enjoyable vid again, that trip to Bristol for the Molsons Event was very interesting, and I bet you are glad to be nearing the finish line with the water pipe dig.

Brilliant video Amy it was great to see dipper doing his bit to help you went to molsom,s l only live 1/2 an hour from Bristol l wished l could have come to meet you it is great when the summer is here but not so good when the trees are in full leaf when you have to transport a machine on a low loader though you did have co driver dipper to help 😅 l liked seeing round Scaina very good garage 😀 looking forward to seeing what your week is like next Sunday 😊😊

Great video Amy. It’s unbelievable that people / councils don’t keep the roadside clear of branches!! U should keep a cheap chainsaw in the lorry somewhere. Keep up the great work!!

Interesting video, especially with the battery powered excavators. Thank you. Thermal runaway is, however, a significant issue with lithium battery packs, in electric and hybrid vehicles. I have seen the RU-vid video where a city bus catches on fire. I have repeatedly driven past the spot at our local airport-Wellington, NZ- where a Prius taxi collided with a concrete pillar, with resultant thermal runaway; and one vehicle has already burnt out on the Auckland Harbour Bridge, due to thermal runaway. The Boeing 787, if I recall correctly, had significant safety issues with lithium batteries and we need to see a rigorous safety certification procedure in place, for heavy machinery powered by lithium battery packs. I very much doubt that such machines are suitable for work in forestry OR any high fire risk areas, at this time. Amy, if you can get a manufacturer to talk to you about the safety design and the testing protocols involved with lithium battery powered excavators; that might alleviate obvious safety concerns, in regard to this innovative kit.

The Digger Girl was amazing u going threw tight narrow road with truck.

awesome Amy another great video nice learning and seeing different machines

A very good Sunday morning to you all from Wellington Somerset

Fantastic video Amy.

Hi Amy awesome video again thanks, hope all those branches didn't scratch that beautiful new wrap?.What a fantastic opportunity for you to try all those new machines. Electric diggers that do the same as diesel amazing technology as certainly moved on. Would you consider getting one when it's time to upgrade?.Nice to see your dad you can see where you get your skills from!.Thanks again Amy take care out there and stay safe 👍 😊.

Great video again. I do wonder how an electric machine would work in remote locations with no mains electricity for recharge. Stay safe looking forward to next video thanks again 👍😀

Think it might be a good idea to get a cordless pole cutter to trim some of those branches when accessing those tight sites, save damage to your truck and machine. Feel your pain my ocd level would be in melt down!lol

You never stop I watch all your videos your always on the go well in till you jib out of pt 😆 another good video 😊

Gorgeous and a skilled operator! Quite the package.

Aaah Tervine. Really badly built road by the forestry. Mad to think Wood Lorries have been up there.

I remember when I got a low coolant warning on a Scania, told Office, weren't bothered. I topped it up and set off. Topped it up again a bit later on that morning. Couldn't top it up on the side of the M23 near Gatwick. It came back (eventually) on the back of a wrecker, that was one late night!

I get the idea of electric diggers but can’t see them being anymore environmentally friendly if you’ve got to stick it on the back of a truck and take back to the yard every night to a charge point. Can see a few being charged from a diesel generator on site 🤔 I think dipper has been watching you and Sandy load trailers and was trying to see you on straight 😉 the clever pup Serious question now, how safe from electrocution in the cab if you did put the bucket through a mains electric cable?

Great video Amy. Nothing worse than possible mouse in the cab damage can cause should get yourself a mouse trap.🤣

Another great video 👍

@diggergirl keep up with the good jobs that you are doing. I enjoy watching your video I am also thinking of doing my excavator operation training & also looking into becoming a heavy good vehicle mechanic so I can fix big plant machines.

I seen they had an open day as I drove past..,. and I wondered if you would be there!

good job Digger Girl another busy week interesting to see the new electric stuff coming was wondering how the heaters will work come winter but obviously they've got it covered... I bet you'll be glad to see the end of the pipeline from hell 🤣🤣

Watch they branches Amy when they whip I the window very thing happened to me peirced my eye with a pine needle near lost my sight, top job though 🤙

Electric machines won't replace diesel this year or next but they have advantages particularly when working in areas where fuel or oil spills would be troublesome.

❤

You need one of them unimogs with a hedge trimmer on it to deliver your equipment 😂as it is you need a constant order of mirrors or a chainsaw in one hand and one more thing remember shot for the moon even if you miss you will fall amoung the stars ❤

I carried I battery powered pruning saw it was a god send

I love your videos

Hi Amy...i think you need to buy a hedge cutter for your digger...now there's a new job for ya. we could call you the TREE BARBER.... those branches would really piss me off...scraping off everything and wrecking your mirrors...Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr....Have a great week...

Good work and looking lovely girl

Omg you must be an expert planner between trying to organise the kids childcare your dad's business your own business going away to plant shows events. I take my hat off to you it can't be easy juggling everything but you do it I've said once I'll say it again no wonder your knackered 😂 it's good to see you your kept busy lol what's your take on the electric excavator am not taken with electric just yet ??. Another good vlog by the way 🙂👍

Good video digger girl xxx❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

That house plot had a great view of presumably cruachan dam.

Them hedgers are a piss take, run a hedge cutter down there once a year and job done great video roll on next week 👌👌. I'm like you can't operate a dirty machine 😂 got to be clean

As nice as the idea of an electric digger is, if you’re on site for a few days, how do they think you can recharge the machine over night. It wouldn’t be practical to take it home every day after work. I’ve got an electric car which I love, so I like the idea, but unless I’m missing something, not practical for a working machine.

Enjoy watching what you get up to! I thaught i had a few plates spinning but you seem to have more! Did you make the pipe unroller? I keep toying with the idea of one to fit onto the diggers boom or maybe pallet tines.

You'd need a long charging cable if you're working up in the wood!

❤

Clearing for a house build

U need to get some Makita battery chainsaw and bush cutter for those situations.

Another good video 👍 Ever though of getting a fastrac/Unimog for moving the diggers ?

😍😍😍❤👍👍👍

If you had to take that new truck along the road, you were travelling on before you came down to the show, you'd been crying. Dad would have been chasing ya for damagingi's New lorry😂😂😂😂❤😢😢😢

Hello there. It's a bit different for me. I drive a tractor and plant trailer.

Your HGV did you learn to drive stick or orto btw i think you are amazing

so with the electric machines and looking at the remote places you work its going to mean you having to take machines on and off site every day to get them charged, whats your thoughts on that?

Paulscott ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Just wondering when r u going to finish the water pipe job u were doing a week or two ago

You need one from Trucker Tim

Its made by fellow Dutchies. 😏😏

Deare diger girl i would love to see you doing a diger training course for all the people like me that's thinking a2doing a diger ticket

do you have to pay customs to ship to ireland

Amy where do you get your skins from??

Hey Amy, if you wer gona start up your own business landscaping and agri work, and you had no machinery yet, what would u wreck amend to start with size digger, lorry or tractor/trailer, or do u think I be mad start up atal price of machinery. Try figure all out. 🤔

So electric diggers, your recent jobs where you have left the machine on site, no charging facilities or the site won’t allow charging, buggered. Also specialist maintenance, where as diesel engines etc can be done by local or self

Ah lassie you should be called bizzie digger girl the rapp on new digger is the dogs u no what ye branches nightmare again well dun you ❤😅❤

I was dying to hear how quiet the electric digger was at about 19 mins,but you had some loud background music playing so that went out the window.!!🤷

Put the electric machine out on utility work with a hamer on how long will it last in the real world

Hi there digger girl ,great video though unfortunately you may as well have been talking Chinese cos I couldn't understand a word ,sorry ! 😢

Rather have a jcb hydrogen powered these milk floats on there way out already
