John setting up to drop some 65ft long 13ft wide trusses. The tandems are slid up to manuever around the jobsite better and to set up to drop the trusses.

This is an average escort load for the tractors. Its about 12ft 6in and basically looks like its going to fall apart. But this is what we haul. There is a LOT of metal banding holding all those odd pieces together.

Its rare that I am actually on-site while they're slinging trusses. These were the 62fters that I brought up to Ellsworth Maine. Its going to be a Hamptons Inn Hotel.... 1 comment

Think these trusses were heavy? The trailer was bowed down about 8-10" in the middle.

The whole jobsite was ice so we couldn't slide the trailer tandems forward to dump. The runner broke on this set of trusses so we had to prop them up to keep the webbing of the trusses from being smashed out.

Gotta love hills with hard packed snow and ice. Yay.

That excavator was the ONLY way I was getting into this site. He dragged me up the hill past his pigs, by his duck pond, so I could drop the trusses near his new barn. I was jealous.
