IMPROVED VERSION OF SETTING MATS

PLACEMENT OF 18 INCH MATS

[@michaelsmith-wv3ee]

The Silver Spade Giant Power Shovel The Silver Spade was a giant power shovel used for strip mining in southeastern Ohio. Manufactured by Bucyrus-Erie, South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the model 1950-B was one of two of this model built, the other being the GEM of Egypt. Its sole function was to remove the earth and rock overburden from the coal seam. Attempts to purchase and preserve the shovel from Consol to make it the centerpiece of a mining museum exhibit for $2.6 million fell short, and the shovel was dismantled in February 2007. RIP

[@hemiv8949]

thanks for the info. a true giant of giants.

[@robertlollathin8373]

I live in Southeastern Ohio and I used to watch it work in Belmont County Ohio I drove coal bucket and it had to cross interstate 70 we got to remove all the dirt it put on the highway in order to cross just West of Belmont County in Ohio right around Cambridge Ohio. The bucket is steel in around Pope County South on I-77, between Ohio river, Marietta and Cambridge Ohio. Just the bucket you could park about 12 cars and 4 semis in it. And there was still Room To run around.

[@SarahAParis]

It even has stairs and gantrys on it..look at the size of the scoop next to the workers! My eyes are going to melt.. Geeking out here!😍😍😍😍

[@stnicholas54]

It's only when you get something comparable in the frame such as these guys that you realize how big this silver spade really is. It's intimidating.

[@SarahAParis]

Yeah it is.. I have never seen such a huge shovel before!😲the people on the ground are like ants next to it. If I got a chance to stand next to it and look at it and touch it, I wouldn't pass it up. Is it still around or did they do something horrible like break it up? I hope it's not the latter.. I would be extremely sad.

[@stnicholas54]

@@SarahAParis I believe it's since been scrapped. Running costs were too much.

Back in 1936 the largest shovel of its kind ( Ransomes & Rapier 5360 ) worked in the quarries at Corby UK then in 1950 the largest dragline to be built was the Ransomes & Rapier W1400 again constructed on site to work at the Priors Haw Quarry at Corby UK. Largest machines in the world at the time and British !

[@ivandraga6887]

Эти ковшовые экскаваторы строила американская фирма "Бицирус Ири", начиная годов с 50-х прошлого века. Для вскрытия угольных пластов, работ в карьерах и т.п. Этот "Сильвер Спэдж", серебрянный ковш - последний из могикан, последний из рода этих великанов)) Он следует к месту демонтажа, в последний путь, так сказать. Деревянный настил укладывают, чтобы не повредить дорогу - вес экскаватора более 6000 тонн. Объеи ковша около 70 кубометров. Но это не самый большой )) Строили и с ковшами по 80-90 кубов, каждый имел свое "имя", можете поискать в интернете. Ну, а самый монстр - рядом с которым этот экскаватор показался бы не таким уж огромным, назывался Марион 6360, или Капитан. Он является самой тяжелой машиной, построенной человеком - весил около... 15 000 тонн и имел ковш около 150 кубометров объемом. ТО есть в 2 раза больше, чем у экскаватора в этом ролике. Высота его гусениц составляла 5 метров 10 сантиметров, в интернете есть фото. С ним произошла авария - внутренний пожар в машинном отделении и он был разобран где-то в середине 90-х, проработав около 20 лет.

What's it cost to operate this behemoth per hour? Couldn't they use 2 front-end dozers and drag the mats around from the other side? or is this a government job where 5 guys watch as the other guys screws in the light bulb atop a ladder?
