Thanks for caring! You are absolutely right. I’ve learned a lot since then, and Bear stays home now. That being said, do know that he is well trained and we are both very sensitive to safety.

I've seen this mine before. I think that the machine you saw was an air chugger. In the mine I worked at would mount them to the floor and drag materials with it. It ran off of compressed air so we would run pipe and hose to the air chugger.

If you measure the width of the drill hole will give you an idea on the age of the mine. 7/8 to 1" would mean that they hand drilled the holes.

It’s not bad man. But you gotta work on keeping the light in the middle of the screen and keeping the filming wherever the light goes. On several occasions you’re filming without a light and the viewer just sees blackness in the middle of the screen.
