Here are a few pictures of a titian in odessa Ukraine.  The remote didn't work , The operator was pushing the stack buttons LOL. The pump has been modafide to. if you look close to 1 picture you ca see a driver seat behind the hopper. everytime they wanted the pump on a man would have to put it in gear and give it gas LOL And if you think thing couldn't get any worse check out the readmix trucks. there so short the pump has to carry around a very large RAMP for the to reach the hopper.

I would say we come along way!

You got that right, brother!

Man-0-man the operator on that unit KNOWS he is going to have a bad day when he jumps out of bed. ;~)

Just think,if somebody splatters a little concrete on your truck you don't have to worry about it.I started all this madness on a 1941,50-ton,mechanical crane,it was a great machine,we really had it made when they added an air fast line....

Wow. Be safe guys. At least try.

That gives a whole new dimention to the word "bruttle".Think we could send them an invite to concretepumping.com?

Beautifull machine in last pic

Rich c you think thats bruttle let one of these beauties back up behind your pump, concrete will splatter all the way to the cab of your truck!!

The over sized wheelbarrows,we use to put a manual tarp device over load prior to off loading concrete to try and limit the amount of concrete splatter. Cool pics

 I hear ya! But , Having to put up with over sized wheelbarrow is just a small price to pay if thats all you have to worry about. The man that runs that titan make about $1,000 a month ! And you thought thing were bad for u! Times are tough every were. To have to live on that and run the BIGGEST piece of SHIT , U have to respect a man like that.

local18 Actually in 25 or so years I have had that happen one time.Your so right about splatter,I did spend much time in the wash bay.I can't say here what I thought when the tub first showed up but "why me" comes to mind.There must have been a shortage of mixers that day.
