@@ConstructionMachineryChannel no problem they have a 12 foot head for that machine too. Up to 16 feet wide in airport runway removal. Imagine how much material comes off that belt!
A question for you: Do you know why the road milling machines in the United States are not covered? I see a lot of them in Europe that almost always have a cab for the operator that is covered. It seems like the ones here, in the United States, should also cover their operators from the sun and rain. What do you think?
@@ConstructionMachineryChannel it's funny that you say that I know some American companies are now ordering machines with covers and canopy it looks wild but as far as I know it's definitely a European thing. :) keep up the great footage.
Could also a job for the smaller W 150 CFi shown in my last videos. Not easy to mill that curve. Holy...! Great catch and nice video my friend. What's about the protests around your destrict?
Thanks Benjamin, that means a lot coming from you! My son and I had a great time watching and recording it. The protests/riots were bad about a week ago, lot's of people breaking into businesses and stealing stuff. There was also police cars set on fire and destruction to property. Time for me to get a gun (legally).
@@ConstructionMachineryChannel Fuck. I wish we could legally buy here. However, German law prohibits these weapons with the exception of members of shooting clubs and athletes.
@@BeytekinConstructionMachinery That isn't good. Getting a gun in the USA is easy. Just have to fill out the correct papers and not be a criminal. Each state is different though which is confusing.
I seen a couple of hole that got dug because of that operator, there’s a time an place to be fast. When the track is going up or down a pile, is not the time. Been operating for 5 years.
2 potential reasons for that 1) A lot of this was filmed on a section of the street where a tight radius was cut. These machines can only cut so far without offloading the material in the drum housing/conveyor belt. The deeper the cut, the less material you can drag without offloading (looks like they're at 4"-5"). So in spots where it isnt physically possible to get a truck under the belt, the machine has to open the back moldboard, pulverize, and leave the milled material in place until it maneuvers to a position where it's able to conveyor the material out of the drum housing. 2) Looks like they're mostly breaking through the asphalt to open grade which easily gets torn up by the equipment, also the clean up crew are moving around a lot of the material that the milling machine wasn't able to get.
I agree, it seems like the right way to do it but I have no experience with milling or paving. I just recorded a CAT paver yesterday that was nice, I hope to publish it soon.
I saw your comment on Andrew Camarata's latest video so I came here to see what is that you're doing in this corner of the internet :D I am no professional but I see some great potential here. I don't know how are you related to the workers you film, but if your time allows it, you could leave the camera fixed in place sometimes and use a bit of fast-forward to capture the whole scene. Why I say that? Because some shots are too short (due to angle and what's happening there I guess) and you could focus on some details. I have seen long shots on other channels and it may become boring to watch the same thing for 30-40 minutes in normal speed. You have a good start in this regard with shorter takes. And maybe you could try to say a few words if you want/can/are not afraid :)) Hopefully you'll find these inputs useful because as I said there is potential here. Keep up the good work (a bit cliche, yeah) but I'm honest. All the best from Romania, where as a fun fact for example, I have never ever seen an excavator with a finger and I don't know why on earth nobody uses it. I try to promote these kind of time saving ideas to every contractor I meet but for you guys it's the norm.
First of all thank you for leaving a comment, I appreciate you taking the time to do that. I like when I have a chance to interact with viewers. I'm going to try your idea to record for some longer frames and fast forward through some parts of the video. I'm also going to try and talk a little more in the videos, especially in the beginning of a video. Hopefully it will lead to more views and subscribers, it's worth trying for a few videos. Anytime you want to leave me some feedback on a video please do, I like to hear different ideas. My question to you: What is an excavator with a finger?
@@ConstructionMachineryChannel there is that thing on the arm which you can grab things with when you close the bucket. Maybe it's called a thumb? Yes, I think this is the term.
@@Sindarul Yes, it's called a thumb here. They work well, maybe you can show them some videos of an operator using the thumb so they can see how well it works?
Watch some of my other road milling machine videos right here: ruclips.net/p/PL2F0w612kyBMIYBiVIpl6dql1cUcbKZBD
Nice large mill a nice 250i great footage!
Yeah, it sure is a cool machine to see up close. I bet a lot of people have no idea how old asphalt is removed. Thanks for watching gtpmike2000!

Wow, that thing must throw some serious material! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. I appreciate it, take care.

That vacuum hose works better when it's hooked up. I run a 220i here in New Brunswick, Canada.
That makes sense Mark.
so for how many year repaving happens ?
It depends on the traffic that the road has. A residential street like this one may be repaved every 15 to 25 years.
Wow😱😱😱
It's incredible.
Really cool video!
Thanks, these road milling machines are one of my favorites to watch and record.
Good job
Thanks, it was an awesome machine to watch!
Waawww moderen canggih bos
It is a modern machine and very nice too!
I know they should have done they should mill it again so they remove all the dirt that’s my opinion
that dirt was always under the road. its supposed to be there.

Nice!
Thanks Steven, I didn't forget about you. Hopefully I can give your channel a shout out in the next video.
Construction Trucks no worries at all, bud. Just figured I should actually show your channel more support since you’ve been showing mine!
Thanks man, appreciate the support!
Nice video
I'm glad you like it! Hopefully the next one will be just as good!
Road Milling machine... Is ok...
It really is a nice machine, I like recording them for you all!
Amazing thanks for sharing work experience
No problem, I'm glad you like the video. Thanks for watching and be sure to come back again 👍🏻
Great video. Like 27
Thanks, I was hoping people would like it as much as I did.
Good machineri...
I agree, a good machine. Thanks for watching the video and taking a look at the channel Yudi!
I seen a couple of hole that got dug because of that operator, there’s a time an place to be fast. When the track is going up or down a pile, is not the time. Been operating for 5 years.
wow if i said that they would get all types of offended and...hahaha you know it Hunter...best comment iv ever seen
How’s that pay ?
Not sure, hopefully someone that does this kind of work can let us know. I imagine the mill operator makes some good money though.
I hope that the planings were recycled
They sure were recycled.
TOP.👍👍
Sergio, it was a great machine to find and record for you all to watch. See you again soon with a new video.
So difficult this work here I am to support you good luck and stay safe.
Thanks for your support!
Most milling machines don’t leave that much of a mess behind them
2 potential reasons for that

👍👍
Glad you liked it, the milling machine was awesome to watch!
That's the proper way to repave a road is to mill the whole thing first
I agree, it seems like the right way to do it but I have no experience with milling or paving. I just recorded a CAT paver yesterday that was nice, I hope to publish it soon.
@@ConstructionMachineryChannel Because it ain't been long ago they redone a road near me and done little spots here and there
