    Built one about thirty years ago. The bolt concept worked pretty well.

    I absolutely love your machine documentaries, I have watched them all. I'm not in the heavy machinery industry but really enjoy your videos. Keep up the great work!

    Photographed one of these beauties at Slippery Rock, PA back in 2003. One of the first draglines I got pictures of. Beautiul machine. The one I saw was painted white. I like the color of the one in the video better. :) Thanks for sharing! Always enjoy your videos.

    My first thought when I saw it was the old 10W. The key feature they shared besides Ward Leonard controls and size was that cab sticking out in the front.

    Would have liked to have seen that extension cord. What voltage? Could hear that transformer humming.

    Hello, on your D 9 documentary you made some years ago, you showed the forward and reverse control lever which I have used. But there was what looks like an aftermarket aluminum pencil size shaped stick that the control lever would touch and move around when shifting. I'm clueless as to what this is. Can you help tell me what it's purpose is?. Thanks so much for your educational videos.

    Great video, your heavy equipment walk-arounds are unparalleled! Clean looking machine, considering she's 37 years old and been around the block, i'm sure.
