My Brother and I have heavy equipment.Years ago we did grading and clearing. The last 10 years we have specialized in demolition. Here in Charleston they started replacing boat landings one at a time about 20 years ago. The different contractors called us to take out the old concrete ramps then get us to put down gravel then they would form up and pour the new ramp above the low water mark. Once cured they would call us to push that concrete down below the low water mark. Usually takes two good sized dosers to break it loose. Once started moving it only takes one but it takes a good operator to get it in the right place without damaging it. Finally they had a big push and replaced the rest under one contract. Again we were called in to take out the old and help push in the new. The last one was the biggest and closest to town. Big ceremony, local politicians,and tv cameras. They had two new high track D6's brought in for the show. They called us to run them. Now I can operate a dozer but we never had one newer than 20 years old and never owned a Caterpillar . While waiting for everything to be ready We overheard two cameramen talking about the job and one tells the other that he heard that two Experts were being brought in to run the machines. Well......we looked at each other and our chests started sticking out. We started strutting around the job talking about pithagorated therums, pi r squares, theories of our relatives. You know expert talk. After speechs and ribbon cut we get the signal they were ready for the experts(us). The cameras turned our way.So we sauntered over to the machines hopped up and get in the seats, my brother cranks his up, I look around then jump back down and go over to my brother and ask "How do you crank this thing up?"

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
