I agree, we could see several drivers, one in the volumetric, one in a tipper etc...

Pleasure to work on the Ashville site, providing such a bespoke Mansafe solution for Daniel and the team.

[@BenO1211]

Hey Daniel, You would be better off getting a Dell Thunderbolt dock, this will allow you to display to both your monitors and charge it all at the same time. While only connecting one lead to your laptop. The monitors would be connected to your dock etc.

[@ghulambashir341]

I literally have no idea , why this was recommended to me by KZbin! But I've been on the Ashiville weekly binge since Episode 33.. took me 20 weeks to make my first comment! Great content, keep it up guys!! 😁

[@TheNaijaboy007]

I must have to commend the videographers on Asheville weekly. They make construction business video more interesting. I am in the building industry yet haven't seen such videos with that fun. Keep it up!

[@3535gt]

I like the changing content. Nothing against the day to day operations. As a businessman myself it’s great to see another business growing and thriving. Keep it up. Be blessed! From Texas

You should get a Dell docking station for the laptop. You can hook the screens, headphones, networking, printer etc into the dock and then just whack one cable into the laptop when you plonk it down on the desk.

[@owencrouch3899]

You say that and he’s sat there using a Apple Mac 😂

[@davebetney]

Hey Daniel, there's a company up North that specialises in building Unimog's to customer specifications...I picked one up from there ages ago going to America. They put ramps down and literally drove it into the back of the shipping container on my lorry lol they will literally build anything on the back for you...

Put a FLASHING orange beacon on top of the stripey post, you "may" think it's overkill, but it's similar to motorcyclists who wear the fluroscent jacket, you see them and remember where they are. Simples

[@callumlucas4444]

Wouldn’t be useful anyway as whoever is reversing up to it won’t be looking for the top of the pole

[@t5jerry]

@@callumlucas4444 BUT, you wouldn`t have to have it on the top of the pole, you could place 4 small beacons in a circle JUST above or at the height of the lorry mirrors, so as the driver reverses, the beacons will be constantly in view. simples.

[@DaanM96NL]

Have you thought about getting one of those magnetic signs? You can just slap it onto the midland concrete logo temporarily until that gets sprayed. And suppose you could reuse it for any other truck that you might have to use before it gets properly sprayed.

Big up all ashville crew working hard

[@bernardgarrett3897]

Benz cars were right hand drive up until 1924. Although in Germany they drove on the right. The steering wheel was on the right so the chauffeur could get out quickly to open the door for the rear passengers. Only in 1924 was it decided that the driver should face oncoming traffic

[@diamondperidot]

Impressive you have an employee who would jump into their personal vehicle to go get a part his work vehicle needed. This kind of professionalism, work ethic starts from the top down. Well done.

Paint fat a yellow stripe down the middle of the roll on roll off trays/bins so that it covers the hook eye. Makes lining the wagon hook to centre of bin/tray easier.

[@ScandiSledder8000]

When you pull it on, put the truck in N and take the p-brake off and let the truck roll under the bin

[@jamiewall2536]

Different content maybe show us where you are working or the jobs where your materials are going to if allowed, also the stuff collected in the skips is this sent to land fill or sorted and recycled? Could be interesting to see how the industry deals with its own and collected waste responsibly , just a thought. Keep the videos coming

[@examinerian]

We use harnesses on our MEWP kit, but have the combination descent arrest lines - they're part 'bungie' and part packed strap that slowly unravels under load. Different strokes, and all that - I only work in a Foodbank warehouse, but the need for safety is the same everywhere! Love the Unimog idea - just get one!

[@Phantomdirt]

Just to confirm, not when using scissors though, right?

[@examinerian]

@@Phantomdirt No running!

[@marksaddler]

Doing the work to your VOLumetric VOLvos one at a time would let you do a sort of side by side/before and after comparison. Make yourself some magnetic Ashville signs for the meantime - they will be useful for hired or demonstrator trucks in the future.

Hi Daniel I thought the idea of doing cube testing is so that when you mix your concrete up and get on site you'll take a sample and get that sample tested so you know that the mix is correct as well as sample testing the various Aggregates
