Hello Jim;My god I never realized you were from N.S.,I've been looking at your videos for some time now.Only realized that your from N.S. when I saw the plates on your truck.WOW,that T190 is quite the machine,and sure looks like you like running it,LOL.I sure hope your having a great Christmas and good New Year...Cliff another Nova Scotian,up in the Valley

[JimHowDigsDirt]

@crippledrider Thank you...glad you enjoy my videos. They're a lot of fun to make. Best wishes to you and yours in the new year.

[MegaBOBCATMAN]

How much money do you make per year from foing that? Because I'm thinking of starting my own business like that

[kamikenzie]

Hey Jim , nice video . Glad to see you are staying busy , Don't forget to keep me in mind if you ever sell that truck eh , you're old buddy down in Cape Breton that went with your old blue Dodge remember .

[JimHowDigsDirt]

@kamikenzie Hey thanks. I'm not thinking of selling it any time soon but will let you know if I ever do. Hope the old Dodge treated you well.

[kamikenzie]

@JimHowDigsDirt Yes sir it did , hopefully doing the same for the current owner now . You have alot of viewing material here , A1 . I'm a little surprised at just how versatile the track loader is , doing jobs I would expect to see from a mini excavator . Have you ever looked into the mini excavators or is there anything you would need one for that you can't handle with the loader ?

[JimHowDigsDirt]

@kamikenzie I thought about getting a mini. Right now I just rent my friend's machine when I need one. In fact I had it all day today building a french drain. I think I will invest in more attachments rather then a mini excavator.

i want your skid steer!

[C11376]

how did you get stuck

[JimHowDigsDirt]

@C11376 It was nothing but slop and I slipped into a rut made by a 214S JCB backhoe that had gotten stuck there before I had arrived.

[diggerdave51]

I've got one of those tilt tach attachments too, what a chore work was before buying one!

[JimHowDigsDirt]

If I could only have one attachment...this is it. I put it on when the machine was new and never take it off unless I'm running a different attachment. I would be lost without it and think that it should be stock equipment on all skidsteers.

[69rd96]

Even better yet, build the tilt mechanism into the quick attach itself, and use a pin to lock it when not in use.

The Aussies have a 4-in-1 combo bucket with a built in tilter, imagine the possibilites?

But they are darn heavy!

[JimHowDigsDirt]

Yeah ...way too heavy. I think mine is around 300lbs. Wish it was built right on to the machine. Do you have a link to that 4-in-1 Aussie bucket? I'd like to see that one.

[Slimdor]

great job man!!!! you have quit a few attachments on there! ide love to have a skid steer like that and have my own buisness! and youve also been on quit a few jobs! is it expensive to run?

[JimHowDigsDirt]

Thanks Slim...Go see your local Bobcat dealer...theyll set you up fairly easy. They are pretty good on fuel...I only burn about 5 gallon a day on average. Depends what your doing.

[Slimdor]

thanks! Im only 13 but thats a good idea! Was the truck and trailor much? And would you recomend cat or bobcat better? I personaly think cats better but what do I know....! ANd thats pretty good fuel econamy! how often do you fill up? thanks again!

[JimHowDigsDirt]

The truck is a 92 and the trailer was new last year...I have about $20,000K tied up there. I am a Cat man myself but I would take the Bobcat skidsteer over a Cat any day...I ran a 247B for about four years and like my T190 much better.

[Slimdor]

thanks! ill send you a message!

[maalketh34]

@Slimdor hey dude. im only 15 and i have a little piece of shit ford one. but it works great for not beind a diesel. and if your going to get one get bobcat. much better!
