[@danagrey3534]

Okay so I am 6 months behind commenting here but Sam I did watch it when you posted the video shortly there after. I have to laugh and as things have unfolded between you and A.C., I have tostill giggle at this because Andrew did a video of how he got into excavating and in that video, he said he had one of these Terramite backhoes and in his true fashion said they were junk, complete garbage! LOL If that is or were the case, I wouldn't have owned 8 of them! I had 3 T7 4WD and 5 T9 4WD with all the rear bucket sizes they offered! I hate to put Andrew down as he is very skilled and talented and many ways, but super hard on equipment. When he said that in the vidoe I busted out laughing as it showed at the time his experience. But what is also interesting is, Andrew has always been keen and smart enought to heed good advice from others. Most of my comments he highlighted and/or pinned to the top, especially the one where he questioned if he was pricing his jobs right. So I used to posts maxing out the allowed characters to break it down in an easy to understand way using the same formula that I used to use. I got tons and tons of comments on that and glad I could help other other and pass along my knowledge that made me a muti-millionaire in the feild in 5 years. So I have often wondered what Andrew though of this video or Sam you working for an outfit that has and uses one of these Terrmites? Hmm??? Back in the late 80s early 90s compact equipment was just becoming popular and I had a goal to become a sucessful millionaire with this compact equipment. Back then we were still beating pins when you wanted to change bucket and thumbs weren't even a thought yet! lol There were basically 3 brands of commercial heavy duty compact backhoes... Terramite, Allmand Bros. and Dig-It. The thing with Terramite was with a T7 or a T9 4WD, it could be easily towed behind a pickup, or 1 ton dump. You were at 10,000# or less and no CDL required! I graduated in 1990 and worked for a local heavy highway / civil contractor for 6 years learning all I could and studying the market. Then I went to college for a 4 yr degree in business from OSU (ATI). I bought a 1 ton dump, a skid steer trailer and my first piece was Terramite T7 and then a Case 1845C skid steer. I was charging $75 to $100 an hor for the machine and $50 for the operator. Everyone was doing "big" jobs back then with their overhead, it was profitable for them to do smaller jobs like remove a tree stump, grade a drive way, cut in a patio, install, fix, or repair water, sewer, downspout lines, etc. So basically I could name my price! As work grew I would get anotherTerramite, Then we had a Bobcat dealer come to town in the second year things exploded! I bought a Bobcat 773 skid steer and a Bobcat 334 mini excavator. Then a Komatsu D21P dozer, then Komatus D21S track loader, and a Leeboy 635B motor grader. Aside from the Bobcat 773 which was rated at about 75 hp, the rest was between 30-50 hp with the Leeboy motor grader being like 45-48 hp. We also bought some old Steiner 425 dual wheel lawn tractors and took a few heavy duty lawn rollers and a ton of railroad spikes, where we cut off the tips, and welded them to the drum with the spike heads up to make compact sheep's foot rollers. Also we took a few 5 & 8 foot trator box blades and made into drag boxes. At the same time we buying, leasing, renting the larger equipment and doing smaller civil projects for the city county and state under Cutting Edge Construction. With the compact division Compact Excavating Company we were out pacing Cutting Edge Const with 8one ton dumps, 6 Komatsu D21 (A&P) dozers, 4 Komatsu D21P track loaders, 6 Bobcat 773 and 2 Case 1845C skid steers, 4 Bobcat 334 , 2 Bobcat 337 and 2 Bobcat 341 excavators, 8 Terramite backhoes (T7 & T9), 2 Leeboy 635B motor graders and 4 Steiner 425 tractors. So when you break down hourly operating costs, repairs, maintence, verse billable hours, the compact division was killing it! We had a mid sized resturant called "The Hard Hat" were all the local contractor would come and eat breakfast in the mornings and they would all say "Here comes Tinker Toy Construction" and laugh and make jokes. But that was okay as on rain days while they were all shut down, not making money, my guys and a few gals were out working making money... digging out stumps, stoning driveways, hauling firewood or saw dust to horse barns, doing water and sewer taps for $2500 per tap, digging water, storm, and down spout lines for building contractors and much more! We had less fuel consumption, faster paid invoices that kept the larger equipment side going and you could get in places where the larger equipment couldn't. When I sold the entire operation in the spring of 2008 before the economy tanked, I gave each of my original employess $125K, which I paid the taxes on and I still had a few million left for me. So Sam if you take the time to read the above, I sold that business after issues with my ex. If she would have been more like you, I 'm sure it would still be going! But I also had a so-called best friend from second grade who was trying to split us up and going behind my back to try to take over my business, telling my developers, customers were were partners and I didn't know what I was doing. His hope was to split us up, leave his wife for my ex and take over the business I created. In 5 short years we were doing projects from $500 to $5 million! So to hear Andrew say those Terramites were junk, and complete garbage is laughable! By the way, my so-called friend didn't end up with my ex! She left with our boxer-lab dog (Chevy), her 6 horses, her 4 horse goose neck slant with living quarters, her Chevy 1 ton 4 door, 4x4 dually long bed truck she bought through my business and basically the clothes on her back and what she started with. She had a rought go the next 5 years until she became a nurse. My friend, his wife divorsed him after finding out what he planned to do and took him to the cleaners! Last i knew, in 2018 he has stage 4 cancer. Karma is a bitch! Today compact equipment is far more powerful and the options along with attachment are endless! I didn't share all of this to impress anyone. But more to impress upon others of what you can achieve starting small and filling a need! Since then Sam I have stuck to my integrity and keep your eyes open as Fate has led me to the right people at just the right time to help me with whatever! Keep rocking Sam and you will do great things!
