The picture of that machine is something out of a nightmare. What is it? Where is it? I’d like to know more about it.
Needs to keep that plane serviced. How far between maintenance?
This is the largest earth mover in the world..... built by the German company, Krupp, and seen here crossing a federal highway in Germany en route to its destination (an open-pit coal mine). It is cheaper to move the thing like this, than to construct or reassemble onsite.
Specifications:
The mover stands 311 feet tall and 705 feet long.
It weighs over 45,500 tons
Cost $100 million to build
Took 5 years to design and manufacture
5 years to assemble.
Requires 5 people to operate it.
The Bucket Wheel is over 70 feet in diameter with 20 buckets, each of which can hold over 530 cubic feet of material.
A 6-foot man can stand up inside one of the buckets.
It moves on 12 crawlers (each is 12 feet wide, 8’ high and 46 feet long).
There are 8 crawlers in front and 4 in back. It has a maximum speed of 1 mile in 3 hours (1/3 mile/hour).
It can remove over 76,455 cubic meters each day. (100,000 large dump trucks at 40yds. each)

Happy to help.
Yes, it is wonderful. I went to You Tube to view it....want to drive up the traffic there ;)
Here are the quotes from Donald Trump:

That may answer some questions.
Man, I LOVE meatloaf sandwiches too! Being originally from the South, meatloaf, tuna fish salad, fried balanoy, fried livermush, and fried egg sandwiches were staples for lunch and sometimes for dinner. My favorite though was cold meatloaf sandwiches!
Y’know, I was thinking about these rude protestors.
Folks get to see and gear rude, hating, bullies, thuggish, boors disrupting a campaign speech.
Who are the normal people who really want to identify and be lumped in with these horrible angry Democrats????
“We probably won’t go to our local precinct to vote though. It might take 10 to 20 minutes and I doubt we will be able to find a convenient time during all of the early voting period to make the trip.”
Besides, I imagine ya’ll just went there to buy the hat and t-shirt anyway because you couldn’t figure out how to buy ‘em online, and now that you’ve got the hat and t-shirt it’s not really necessary to do much of anything else to get Trump elected. OTHER people will take care of that, right?
Good reports from everyone. GO TRUMP GO
My father also needed only 4 hours of sleep. Not sure if that is even relevant, but he was also partly of German descent. LOL
Looking at the diversity in the crowd, that’s what the RINOs said they wanted!
Trump’s got it.
They hate him.
Go figure.

I LOVE fried bologna sandwiches to and I’m a New Yorker. :-)
yep...just not "good enough" for the crazy GOPEers; go figure.
MANY people who have never voted at all will turn out to vote for Trump.
He’s delivering to the GOP exactly the demographic they say they want. He’s not even ‘ultra conservative.’ He’s moderate on most social issues.
They just want a guy they can control. Open borders, cheap labor, sell out the country. Trump won’t let them do it.
Actually, Trump is a lot more Conservative than most people claim....very pro the first two Amendments, anti-drugs, anti-government waste and fraud, is a free trader, for low taxes, the rule of law, pro-[military and the police, build up our military, and pro-family.
But yes, he can't be "CONTROLLED" and he isn't a damned ELITIST !
Trump’s doing two Iowa rallies tomorrow. One at 1 pm in Clear Lake and the other at 4 pm in Ottumwa.
Oops, flip the start times around above. Ottumwa is the first rally.
I know I promised a full report, but it’s after 1:30 AM, and I’m beat. So this will be short. And I’m too tired to know who to ping.
I couldn’t see or hear the obnoxious Muslim protester from our seats, but Hubby had gone to the men’s room, and saw her being hauled out. It was NOT a silent protest, as the enemedia claims. She was verbally lashing out at everyone. I’m not sure, but I think this applause is for her being escorted out. It’s the same video I posted earlier. http://vid1078.photobucket.com/albums/w494/BykrBayb/Mobile%20Uploads/capturedvideo_zps08iutxto.mp4
Sorry I can’t tell more. I’m falling azzzleep
Well you certainly wouldn’t make sure family, neighbors and friends got to the polls.
