    It is a ME dipper. (Mass Excavation in Caterpillar machines) A short dipper gives more power than a long one, and is all that is needed if the digger is on the bench loading below, also gives faster cycle times.

    Great review, everyone loves big machines! If I may, a couple of tips for your drone pilot/operator.... no need to fly solo with something so big and so slow ( you came close to losing the drone on one occasion, but that was because you were screen flying). You could have just set the drone up to orbit at a set distance and altitude, that way all you had to do was move the camera or adjust the height, direction and speed as it did the orbit...makes for a much smoother shot, especially when you have the time and space to do it. 👏👍

    We use Lime Powder at Nissan Sunderland in the new Emissions compliant Paint Shop! A series of 56 rotary lime drums underneath the primer, basecoat and clearcoat booths catch all the overspray via a negative pressure down draft and the dirty lime gets evacuated into big a 70 tonne silo (Mounted on a mezzanine floor, 6-7m up outside. The top of the 70 tonne silo is 17.9m from ground level!) This replaces a traditional Wet Floor system commonly found in spraying plants/booths!

I hope someday any excavation organisation from commonwealth countries will establish one commonwealth excavator operators association and together we exchange ideas on how to work in construction site using excavators!

Last 10 years i've been working on cranes, they are fun to work on too...

    biggest machine ive ever driven is an L190 volvo shovel. i could easily get 10 tonne of sand in the bucket and load a 4 wheeler in one scoop. we used to get bomb disposal sometimes turn up to destroy old ww2 ordinance that would turn up in ocean dredged material we were grading. it was fun helping them by dropping a few tonnes of sand on top of an old missile and watching them blow it sky high. i miss them days.
