Very good video, Justin!

Nice video. Can you get a video of this machine working? Those Koehrings were amazing machines for their time.

Thanks. Its hard to catch this one working, and l"m rarely around this jobsite. But if I get a chance I will gladly get an action video.

Great vid. Very informative and well done.

Can you do one on a 1266?

I worked a job about 10 years ago where we used a custom built 1266 (that had come from a strip mine) to put a slurry cut off wall down the middle of a dam that had been leaking for decades.

It was an amazing machine. With the boom and stick that was on it, we were digging at a max depth of 98 feet.

It had two 650hp (ea) 12 cyl Detroits and weighed 450,000 lbs.

I would love to see a vid about one. There are none on here! :(

Thank you. Absolutly! If I locate a 1266, I will be sure to do a video. Koehrings are hard to come by anymore

6.5yd bucket? looks more like a 3yd or so

[PAmining]

No it's 6. You've obviously never seen how big an 1166 is. This machine is compatible with a Cat 365
