Between cali and here we've got abot 3 of those.  One 47 and 2 39's, they work sweet!  They were dessigned just for using a trimee.  They work beautifuly on case-ons ect.  And don't worry for all you sceptics out there they are engineered to do just that, nuthing more nuthing less.

 Hey they're not bad for being taken at fifty mph in a pump!

 That's the only way to go on caisson tremme jobs, no crane assist and saves everyone time & money!

Just to let everyone know the pipe IS being asisted by chain on 2 sides as to keep from having a chinese handcuff effect.

These are 80 to 90ft coll's continuas pour contractor opted to not pressure pour due to the height and pressures during a continuase pour so here we are besides a chopper any other ideas on how to get concrete in there? Atleast schwing and putz gave it 3 hailmaries and a dash of holy water?

Easy there rickey rocoon I was talkin about myself rarely needing the 4" stubby hose compaired to how much they cost. I nocticed the mammoth columns & caps, I pass by that job 3 or 4 days a week when I go to the "dairy". (3 or 4 loads = 7 or 8 hours)
