Thats pretty cool. My uncle pretty much runs reichdrill. He kept the company a float for many years when the original owner had it. He was a drunk and he didn't really do much. When they sold it to the new company they offered him a job an he has 10 percent of the company.

I used to drill water wells running an old Jaswell rig (actually working for the Jaswell family) and I WISH our rig was that smooth....

Nice video, is it unusual to use road type rigs like this one. Many years ago I worked for the Ingersoll Rand company in the UK, we built quite a few blast hole rigs similar to this one but they were on tracked chassis. IR ended up selling the whole rock drill division to Atlas Copco. The rest, as they say, is history. Thanks again for this video its great to see kit like this operating.

I ran a drill, all the time I was working... good job.. No reason to let the mask down in a place like that.. they'll go about anywhere with it up.. I ran the one on tracks or built on Crane carriers.

blinko656 I'm not really sure, probably around 25 feet with a 3 foot sub-drill

if this truck's purpose is to drill then surely the weight should stay the same on each journey, so why does it have a tag axel?
@lordadamthird10 жыл бұрын
why is the tag axel raised is what i mean, surely if it needs them extra wheels it should be perminantly fixed down?

That rig makes a T-4 look bad, and 10X faster than a Gefco/ Speedstar.
