This beautiful piece of machine weighs close to 55 tons or over 110,000 pounds. During demolition of the two buildings, this machine was key to excavation and concrete removal.

There are seven 48″ box Quercus agrifolia. These were trucked in and weigh close to 1,300 pounds each . It took four crew members to just tilt them straight for moving them off the truck.
