It's a rarity when the rig crew builds a crane and we are there to listen to the talk

[@grasub1]

Excellent team work and super communication- precise and exact no shouting or sledging. Great team.

[@johnfnielsen5068]

I will be waiting for part 2

[@gragor11]

Me too. Subbed so I would get the notice.

[@jdhinckley1954]

Absolutely terrific "You are there" video. The viewer can see, and hear the process. Keep it up! Thanks for sharing.

[@wyowes6090]

I love how the boss talks to crew. He's not condescending. I bet that crew LOVES working for him.

[@colinjones5100]

A bit of banter is great on site. If any crew can't take a bit then they are not part of a team.

[@wmbomb1079]

I must say it was a 'RIOT' watching this video, between the Shot Caller and Jack in the crane working together in total harmony made it a HOOT listening in especially when the "Sandbagging Me'' started. : ))))

[@2009deerejohn]

Good stuff, I love the format and can’t wait for more content, don’t change a thing because some guy doesn’t want to hear how guys talk to each other at work, getting to see the ins and out of a crane being assembled for a pick is cooler then the pick itself, I come from an excavation background and very much appreciate the forward planning and logistics behind it because I would walk my hoe off the trailer and go to work, I didn’t have to have a crane to build my crane, nor worrying about getting all the pieces from A to B in the right order and the same condition that they were in on the last job 😂 I thought it was great to hear the guy in the Sany talk about how the machine felt going down hill or doing the heavy pics, knowing your machine is very much a sign of a good operator

[@tblake191]

Great video!!!! Finally a detail packed high quality crane assembly video!! The different perspectives and communication… awesome! I’ll be watching as long as you keep the good stuff coming.

[@CraneCrewUSA]

Thanks! We'll keep the videos coming.

[@gragor11]

Got to hand it to you, excellent communication between you and the crane operator. No question what is being requested. I too am looking forward to the follow on videos. Have a safe set up, installation and demob.

[@Baja4Autism]

Right up to the point where ‘Jack’ says he could hardly hear any of the radio communications! Quite a bit of unnecessary melodramatic commentary. ‘Oh, that’s gonna be heavy’. You haven’t seen anything heavy until you’ve worked offshore where they routinely make pics that are well over 10,000+ tons while setting entire oil & gas platforms. This is nothing more than building a temporary bridge with tinker toys.

[@gragor11]

@@Baja4Autism Ahh but offshore workers always have bigger dicks. Kinda spoils them for normal people.

[@user-oi8tg3dq7t]

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

[@joedoe6444]

i haven't driven down into the valley since just after the bridge washed away. nice to see they are getting around to replacing it now.

[@i.u.o.e8326]

JMS has some great Assembly director's worked with Moody and Ben on a wind farm company as a whole has some good people

[@gwharton68]

Great video. Can't beat the beautiful country to work in.

[@CraneCrewUSA]

Thanks! Can't beat that backdrop.

Was in big construction for several years if the dainty people have a problem with language 🤔 apparently they don't understand reality 😅😊

[@rockofagesusa7942]

Exactly, I was in structural ironwork for over 25 years and that’s the language we all spoke.. Straight to the point and no bull $hit

[@lancewilson457]

It takes an extreme amount of skill to get that crane put together safely

[@projectcontractors]

My kinda people!

I hear ya I miss Big work ....At the end of the day Beer tastes so much better ....66 retired now Love to go back

[@jeanmi974caterpillar3]

super video,bravo a toute l 'équipe salutation France..

[@CraneCrewUSA]

Thank you!

[@USMC1984]

How many times have you rigged that crane? Not sure I would remember all the steps. Also… how many trucks does it take to transport all the pieces?

[@CraneCrewUSA]

Billy from JMS Crane says there were 24 total trucks and he's rigged that crane countless times.

[@tomkallen]

Real Professional Teamwork.

[@stevetrowbridge7101]

Enjoy watching your videos please not so much cussing be safe God bless.

[@MattyDardani]

Shoot you can see one of my projects in that opening shot.

[@stevencaskey8502]

If the fluid needs to warm up then they need Amsoil.

[@johncollinson196]

just curious why you didnt use the self assembly cylinder to install the tracks? To me its.much easier on the mlcs to do it that way.

[@CraneCrewUSA]

JMS said they didn't use it due to only being able to swing 30 degrees with the tracks hanging from the assembly ram. There was also no way to get the trucks backed in sideways to use the assembly ram. Lastly, they found it easier to use an assist crane since there was no real estate to work and they were on a steep grade trying to put it together, which made it tricky.

[@Ivansgarage]

Where the hell is part two, or are you guys still playing with each other?

[@CraneCrewUSA]

Coming out this week!

[@JDX123]

Safety professional here. Some pretty serious safety issues.

[@isaachillstrom]

Safety is not a profession. What you're watching is professionals at work.

[@jongrossardt7542]

Is this a new bridge/crossing at Emigrant or replacing the old one?

[@CraneCrewUSA]

Yep. The last one washed away in the flood a few years back.

[@Gwen-x6d]

Can't find Part 2 of this series.

[@CraneCrewUSA]

Coming out this week!

[@koenvangeleuken6544]

the steel bridge is not painted??? maybe they dont expect it to last too long there???

[@skitzochik]

I COULD NEVER do this kind of work with people I didn't already know & trust. It seems really haphazard doing such a dangerous job with guys you don't even know.

[@user-fl3yi5rq8b]

Why do they always have sunglasses if there is no sun? to look cool?

[@fireguymel]

They are safety glasses

[@wyrdlg]

Last time I heard the F-word so often when I was a teen driving to the pool billiard with my mums partner. Going down the f-cking road past the f-cking tree on the f-cking pavement round the f-cking corner... 😁 Cool vid! Smoked an engine? RTFM? Or don't they document such negligible stuff...

[@prinzeugenvansovoyen732]

why didnt they ramp upß the approaches to make the bridge higher over the water- make it flood safe ?

Im lost here guys. All day to put the house and tracks on???. No tray, no weights, not even a heel??? What gives? Not enough trucks?

This video was about half of day one. Counterweights and boom assembly will be part two, which was still day one.

Swearing? You should watch 'Bob Does Sports'. It is a Golf You Tuber. But I love the content- Good Good is another Golf You Tuber, they watch their language, They are a bunch of young folks!

[@toddincabo]

👍 Really enjoyed it. Some advise, children would love to watch this , either mute those F Bombs or just don't cuss to start with and you'll get 95% more subscribers, as soon as you start cussing the vast majority of folks are going to click off you right then and there. Stay safe.

[@CassiarClan]

I did

[@skitzochik]

I understand your point, but that's not true at all. If ya gotta wear a hardhat, chances are the "F" word is part of the family.

Shame someone didn't warn the man they were on a KZbin video it will affect your audience

Camera work appalling, the camera swinging left and right at speed, enough to make a viewer sick. Ed

Yeah, we might try a chest mount next time. Won't be so much movement then.

Happy with content but please eliminate profanities if you want a wide audience.

Yeah, future ones will have them bleeped out.

[@headsean]

I find it refreshing that for once a channel is talking like people normally talk.

[@carlcarlamos9055]

That rig up crane should not be allowed on the job. The owner and or renter are helping to finance the Communist Chinese Government’s bad neighbor policy. I see they don’t have their name proudly displayed in prominent locations on the crane. I realize there is not much work around there, but sometimes personal standards are important. If they had any backbone, the whole crew should drag up. Take care.

[@tedgerstenslager2949]

It’s apparent after 1 minute this is a scripted reality TV show. That’s as far as I got before hitting stop, dislike, then the do not recommend anything from this channel buttons.
