TANKS EXCAVATORS TRUCKS & COWBOYS

[@whizzbang1000]

God I love this channel! It's got everything....tanks, trucks, diggers, great banter, a sprinkling of sexual innuendo and the occasional no shits given to jobs that just need doing. I really don't think I've seen a harder working bunch of people on KZbin.....or anywhere for that matter. I could watch all day long. It sure beats the spoon fed bullshit that the BBC and other media channels slingshot at us! Keep it up guys and girls...it's brilliant!

[@MercuryGremlin]

@KM-wl1tp They’re quite often the ones behind the phone doing great filming. Or in front of camera getting stuck in. Or driving bulldozers. Or stopping Ted from eating poo. Generally making the world and this channel a better place…

I've actually stopped watching the mainstream brainwashing propaganda hate and fear spreading agendas being pushed by tv. Won't catch me getting conned into going to war for the so called future of are kids in Britain like my grandad did. Only to be blamed for global warming then to feed the war mongers pockets while are kids have ther future wrote for them. 👍

[@oWAR1OCKo]

Brothers, let me just tell you, as a Texan, dont let ANYBODY ever convince you that being called a cowboy is a bad thing when they have no idea what kinds of things actual cowboys do. You all fit right in, we would be glad to count yall as friends and family.

[@akefayamenay104]

As another Texan, Can Confirm. These guys get down in the muck and the mud to get the job done just like any good ranch hand would. Ya'll would fit right in.

[@SteveDonaldson-r5k]

The phrase comes from 'cowboy builders ', meaning farmhands trying to construct anything more complicated than a shed, or fly by night chancers riding into town and shooting up the sheriff, i.e. doing a terrible job of fixing your house and disappearing as soon as they get paid. It's a throwback to the Hollywood westerns shown in British cinema and not meant to be disrespectful to Americans or real cowboys, but has spread from building to mean any amateurish bodge job.

[@philipB31]

Excellent driving there by Adam, presumably the tree sprang back to its former glory. I see Poonie was supervising, yet again, probably on the look out for some ‘munchies’. Great work everyone.

[@darrenbrown3362]

I notice that supervisor Ted was conspicuous by his absence when all the 'sketchiness' was going on with the sleepers. No wonder he doesn't let you guys out unsupervised that often.😂😂 Another great video guys. Keep it up.👍🏻👍🏻

[@drones7838]

Nice observation❤😂

I’m 55 years old and I’ve been a class A diesel mechanic since 1986. I love watching your channel cause I’ve always been fascinated with tanks. I feel that I could work tanks like I’ve been doing it forever. Because of you. I love watching your videos because of the way you explain shit, sometimes in a very, very funny way. But the thing I like the most is you got your mates there with you. Mine have unfortunately passed away and those days you’re living now are 30 years in my past. Enjoy these times, be smart, don’t screw up and most importantly don’t drink and drive. Please keep making the fantastic videos. Cheers ! P.S. your nasal whining impression of an old British guy that knows everything sounds incredibly like Jeremy Clarkson‘s same impression.

[@blxtothis]

My dear old Pop used to,say “Old Uncle Jack was told not to smoke as a young man as he’d die young. Sure enough, he dropped down dead with a ciggy in his mouth aged 97”. BTW, I very much admired the REO Cancer Smoke completing the theme!

[@cumbrian8552]

HSE "How sketchy was the task?"........"the giggling was constant sir!" 😅

[@depleteduraniumcowboy3516]

The way we used to mount road wheels is you would be facing away from the tank as you lift it up, more or less aligned, and your buddy would then guide it onto the studs. That recovery vehicle hanger queen just doesn't want to go.... I was totally sure, the tree was gonna get hit. Nice recovery.

[@Bob-kb5pv]

We used to do similar but the chap holding the wheel didn't lift. Two chaps, one either side of the wheel used shovels as a leaver against the tracks to take the weight.

[@depleteduraniumcowboy3516]

@@Bob-kb5pv oh, now that you mention it, I remember that sometimes we would have a third with a tanker's bar to leaver up the wheel. The challenge was that we were supporting officer training, so each of us was individually responsible for several tanks so we didn't have a crew.

[@thechrisgregory]

Lead pipes are eventually coated by the calcium in the water they carry, thereby protecting the water from being directly exposed to the lead.

[@slacko1971]

I used to love the weekly snoop around the Snap On van when I was in the motor trade, Mac stuff always looked great on the van and shit in your tool box after a month.

[@steven.ghodgson765]

Lead pipes are not a problem, unless they are in the House of Lords. The pipes corroded as the sinks were being used as urinals due to the poor and distant provision of toilets (at least that was the excuse at the time). There was a time when tomatoes were suspected of being poisonous. What was actually happening was the lead in pewter kitchen vessels was being dissolved by the acidic toms, and getting into the food.

[@jamesbull890]

Love the videos. On the subject of lead pipes if you're in a hard water area there's not such a problem because the calcium in the water is constantly forming and breaking down lead calcite which stops the lead getting into the water, in soft water areas the water is slightly acidic which dissolves small amounts of lead into the water which your body then absorbs.

[@willwade1101]

Glad you stopped that recovery vehicle where you did, I had my doubts that it would easily fit through that tiny door.

Morning Ted, their fitting flat tyres !..... Just saying..... Amazing finding the "Lesser rusted digger bucket" thanks to a Farmer it was saved from the scrap man.

[@FrederickHopkins-xb6me]

Always looked forwards to the Snap Off van tuning up.

[@Ihasanart]

Methinks a 2nd Foden and an expansion of the concrete pad might be worthwhile investments going by how simple and easy getting the AVRE off those chocks was. Hopefully the channel and rest of the business grows and helps that become a reality.

[@baeruuttehei1393]

[@dickdegraaff5452]

Dear Joe, First of all I wanna thank you for helping out Emile Luijben, alias Master Milo, with his missing exhaust manifolds for his T69 tank because together with an almost brand new engine his Chinese tank will run better than ever before. Your restored Centurion is almost finished and looks great so it can be shipped to her new owner in the USA pretty soon. Your USA M936 crane is a light weight crane but is a good fighter in muddy roads so with all the rain over the past months the bucket was not too difficult to rescue. I look forward to your next vlog and send you love from the Netherlands

[@clivehibburt]

Great video look like a lot of fun 👍😊

[@alanbeckett4]

Considering how that Cat Digger was when first we saw it, it's nothing short of miraculous!

[@ianb6595]

Good as ever mr.Hewes, recovering the shovel from the boggy ground, mint ! I can see the next venture, metal flooring on the roller what the engineers use, this could be be game changer especially on a chieftain mount, the dead duck suspicious don’t give it to ted

What I don't understand is why this channel doesn't have at least a million subscribers, c'mon my fellow Americans help the war effort like our fathers and grandfather's did, both my parents served in ww2 in army and my mothers father in ww1, I still have moms army trunk, it's marked second lieutenant with her name because all army nurses were officers right from the start.
