    That's the nicest it'll ever look lol.

    I just went out and set auxillary pressures and flows on a new 330 like that the other day. The new monitor threw me for a loop, still used to the F series machines. Cat makes it so simple to program work tools, which is really nice.

    Helping out a fella who will forget more than I ever hope to learn… Had to unload the whole thing and send it back across the street due to a hydraulic leak. Will repeat it all tomorrow morning, hopefully.

    They are a young man’s game. Many of our beam drivers are not young. I offer my labor free of charge.

    That might take some fabrication, but could be done! Problem with pin grabbers is they require pressure on them all the time - I think.

    No, I dislike them, especially with a thumb, because the thumb can hit the boom, and the teeth of the bucket can as well, not to mention the cab. Plus, they unbalance to hoe by themselves, and then stick the weight in the bucket that much farther out.

    As soon as they can get the proper thumb built this quick coupler is going back to the Cat house.

    They make sense for a lot of contractors, just not us.
