we got rid of our hammer mill because the power station here is'nt big enough to handle the powere consuption of it lol so we cube the lite iron and chop the heavy metal into 5foot chunks and send 1000 tons of it away at a time in scrap boats to places like china ect,
we have 2 crushers, an antient copex and a new lefort (french peice of crap). we work with leiber scrap handlers (912, 932, 2x934 and a 954). its amazing how much scrap a small island an produce lol
Thats a badass Terex 35 ton rock truck. Is that a 12V71 or a 8V71? I can't tell. Solid tires on the back for scrap work. Reminds me of Amix Salvage yard in Vancouver Canada.
And it all goes to Communist China
