I agree with you this is the best video Scott's made of everything that he's videotaped I appreciate all the rest of the videos but this one was awesome this tops this tops the top this tops the top I think this is the best video thank you Scott for you and your brother and everybody doing what they do up there and video making help make this video it was awesome
@@robertaustin-y7j Always appreciate your comments Robert 🙏🙏🙏 As we approach the 10K subscriber milestone, I’m thinking of putting together a top 5 favourite videos montage to celebrate 😁😁😁
I think it's awesome that they did this video. I think it was just fantastic that Jeff even went up there and took the time away from his company and and to show people how we do things up there and it worked with their mud up there that's pretty cool hopefully Scott and Ian will come down here and hang out in Texas with Jeff and bill for the weekend or something
Just today I booked my flights to fly down and hangout with Jeff for a few days in October. Super excited to see first hand how they do things in Texas!!!
If you think 3 inch is to heavy you should try use 4 inch Line like we have to use here in Dublin IRELAND we only put 3 inch flexible hose on in the pour area but our Mix's have gotten so much better in the past year since they started using Sand from a different Pit I think that we chould pump it Tru 2 inch or 2.5 inch
I let the chute bounce and slap the safety lever too! He’s right though 1 out of 75-100 drivers is going to get mad because you chipped his paint. That prime was so satisfying to see. I didn’t have a doubt in the world 🇺🇸😂
So no. That is the way I used to do it and was better advised to pound the hopper down until getting some air through the end of the hose. I found doing so makes it much easier to get the ball back. The odd thing in this day (and it’s not shown in the video) is that we had the pump hammering away for a good 5 minutes and still no air out the end of the hose. Took a good bit of messing around to get the ball back. That was always my thinking as well, don’t pump down below the cylinders to maintain vacuum, but the pumping a bit of air through the system seems to work better with our sticky mixes.
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 ok so pump down till it’s spitting air at the end of the hose. Then you fill the hopper with water just above the cylinders so you get vacuum to suck the ball through.
Umm it is definitely something you would want where they are. They use smaller hose so the rock is smaller. But definitely not many tricks to get it to pump.
If you have to use water put the paper bag into the line between the water and the Mud so that they can't Mix together but make sure that the bag is not Tight in the Hose make it Lose in the line just enough so the rocks can't pass it
50 mm hose, Jeff ??? 🤔 Anyone would think you are on holiday 🤣 The slurry prime worked a treat, reckon they will run with that now 🤓 How did you manage using the metric system ? 🤔😬😂
Jeff you all time making fun of us 2 inch hose guys haha. I will use a 2-1/2” hose anytime these contractors will let me but if it’s them on the hose they only want 2 inch. I have absolutely no use for anything bigger than 2.5” we have creamy 4000psi small rock mixes. Heck I’ve even attached 75 feet of 1.5” hose on the end of a long stretch for a sea wall and it pumped that aggregated mix right on through it lol. Felt like I was holding a garden hose squirting concrete in that wall lol. It was cute they said! I don’t even remember where I got them dang hoses but they came in handy that day. By the way you do make that Crappin prime out look easy with that Portland. I’ll stick to my liquid primer and use that if I need to in the future. Thanks for the videos guys yall make it entertaining for sure! Chris
Hey Chris, which brand/type of liquid primer do you normally use? I swear we’ve tried most every one of them and just can’t find positive results priming through rubber line with our mixes up here. The slick-prime seems to just pulls the fines from the first bit of mud and causes a tighter than know what sand plug at the head of the prime. Any tips/tricks for priming out hose with the liquid stuff?
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 I use a product called super primer. I mix it really potent to almost a gooey texture. I literally just primed 275 feet of 2”, and I’m on the river so it’s all downhill, with about a gallon and a half. I always add a half gallon of water ahead of it as well. I get two primes with one bottle. Cost roughly two US dollars per job and not near the workout. Portland is my number 2 though
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 our mix looks almost identical to yours based on what I see in your videos. I just checked with my hands and it looks like some 5/8-3/4 stone in this mix. When I get a little better with this RUclips stuff I’ll do a video of my routine or something and send it to ya.
Many many moons ago all there ever was You used a bag of Portland mixed it up and tet it rip we didn’t have this fancy slick shit. Just a simple bag of Portland and depending how far out maybe 2 bags on real far out or up just a couple yards of grout on first truck. No fancy slick stuff
@@sirmister4411 I remember being trained 25 years ago (when our mixes were even more forgiving) and the old man would make me lay out 50' of 4" steel pipe off the back end of the pump, then taper down to 50' of 3" rubber, followed by a 25' length of 2.5" hose, and finally a 50' run of 2' line into the pour area. That entire "yard sale" of gear for a single load of 1.5" radiant heat topping slabs.... Back then, if it was more difficult it was better 🤣🤣🤣
That mix looks rocky. I am kind of surprised it will run though 2 inch line. How many lbs of 3/8 rock and how many sacks or lbs (94 lbs per sack) of cement are in the mixes you generally run though your 2 inch line?
It’s actually 1/2” stone (not sure of the exact proportions as our local suppliers don’t divulge such information). It’s a 4600 psi mix with 5-7 percent air.
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 Here in Texas I've run 1500 lb 3/8 rock mix with 517 lb of cement/ash mix (A 3000 PSI Mix) though 2 inch line it jams in the reducer frequently. It'll go through 2.5 all day. 4600 PSI with 1/2 inch rock must have at least 611-658 lbs of cement/ash and I don't imagine its more then 1600 lb of rock per cubic yard. Perhaps that is why your mixes are more sticky and they actually run though your 2 inch line. Pretty cool. I thought it would plug because the amount of rock falling out that chute. Impressed! Keep up this fun. Both fun channels to watch.
@@johnathanperez3639 it’s pretty rare here for us to see a mix under 3500 psi. Typically the leanest we’ll see is a 3500 for spec home foundation walls/footings, and minimum 4000 for most custom home builds. The air entrainment required for our free/thaw conditions also makes the mud act a lot “fatter” as well. I’m excited to get down to Texas in October and hangout with Jeff. Will be cool to see in person the mixes which you guys deal with on the daily. I have a feeling I’ll be returning home with a newfound appreciation for our local materials here 😁😁😁
2.5” is the “big hose” out here (or at least when using this specific supplier it is). Checkout the link below to a video of us pumping through 250’ of all 2” rubber: ruclips.net/video/tt4DcHZ50gs/видео.htmlsi=RGsFyClVkW75G1Zg
Jeff is up there showing the Canadians how it's done! Good job you all!
It was a harder task than it looked. Lol
You guys are having way too much fun! A bunch of good-natured guys doing the real work! Power on!
Definitely will be looking forward to October when Scott comes to Texas

Thank you Robert!
it’s nice watching someone with a trailer pump my dad has a 2013 schwing pump and he runs his own pumping business down in Maryland, United States
Very cool. Thanks for watching!
I will say Canada has us beat on the formwork. You don’t see stuff that tight around here!
Those guys do a really nice job
Great video guys! Hi from San Angelo Tx Triple 3C Concrete Pumping!
Thanks for watching! How far are you from Coleman Texas
@@MuddyfeetConcretePumping yes sir I’m about 1hr ! How can I help you?
Watching this again.... I still think that grout was too wet 🤣🤣🤣
That’s how we do it in red deer Alberta. Expect we run 3 inch hose. Easy peasy
Ol scott was a little salty at first when it primed 😂😂 good stuff fellas
👍👊
Great video!! .. we will start priming like that .. instructional video for trainee..
Works for us.
Good trailer guy Portland the way go good job Jeff
👍👊
Great Video !!!
Thanks man!👍👊
You guys are awesome! I'm pumping out of Austin tx, Is that a AARCOM trident remote on a putz????
That’s a question for Scott it is the Aarcomm. But I’m not sure which model

Only one way to find out Johnny! I’ll be on the next direct flight with my 3”-2.5” reducer!!! (and accompanying mini-sledge) 😂😂😂

They’ll get over it. Lol
So are you pumping the hopper down just above the cylinders before stopping to reverse so you can maintain the suction in the line
So no. That is the way I used to do it and was better advised to pound the hopper down until getting some air through the end of the hose. I found doing so makes it much easier to get the ball back. The odd thing in this day (and it’s not shown in the video) is that we had the pump hammering away for a good 5 minutes and still no air out the end of the hose.

Wow, how often do you guys get beautiful days like this?👍
3-4 months out of the year. The other 8-9 it’s raining sideways and miserable.
The bag grout in a line pump is the same concept as a yard of grout in a boom pump for system
Probably so
Did you like the truck mounted pump? How was the mix to Texas mix?
Umm it is definitely something you would want where they are. They use smaller hose so the rock is smaller. But definitely not many tricks to get it to pump.
