no Problem!

Heres some pictures from my job today. Only 10 Yards, but still its better than 0!

Heres a short Video as well (it pumps faster, but they were worried about their electrical heating wiring being damaged so I didnt want it to jerk and damage it so I pumped in 4th gear instead of 5th at low volume)

Nice layout and good discription of pictures ,2 thumbs up Mister_Perkins 

hey fellas, heres some more pictures from todays job. Job itself was 4 hours away one way... Had to fuel up twice!

Scary job. Power lines on the one side, loud noises all around, 5 hoses off the boom. Primed with slick pack and portland cement.

Great pictures. I hope you primed that slick pack outside instead of in the wall under the bridge.

put it in a pile on the rocks under the bridge. They had to do an air test anyways, so we just had the guys throw the hose onto an area where they could get to it with a Wheel barrel. They tested it after all the slick and portland was out of the mix, and then we were good to go for the rest of the day.

That's good. Some people do not realize that it needs to be done outside of pour. I have had customers complain to me about operators priming in the slab and then they have soft spots and cracks.

I was told that you can pump slick pak into a pour if you spread it around. But if you prime with Bentonite, and dont get it all out it will definitely ruin the job because the clay doesnt get hard. I could be wrong, but my fathers been pumping for 20 years and thats what he told me

heres a small video i compiled with some videos of jobs included. Music goes along with it. Enjoy:

.´m a linepumper and i do 2 or 3 pumpjobs/day. From AM 07.00 to PM 09.00 mostly, full workingday. And i never wash my hopper between every pumpjob - i use sugar. Even in Sweden it can be 32+C in the shadow, and then i use the sugar in the restconcrete in the hopper, so the concrete is ok to start whith to next pumpjob. I´ve done this "circustrick" for many years (it can be 100 miles, 16 mil or more between mypumpjobs) and the concrete is like a babytuch even after traveling 150 miles, 24 mil whith the hopper full of many hours old concrete - and further more hours to wait on the mixtruck to the next job. 1 tablespoon sugar/100 l of concrete makes alot of laughinghours whith the hopper full of concrete when the sun shine, +30C. Sorry that i don´t understand how to translate the adds of sugar in Amerikan measure. I guess: 1 inch sugar in a pint of concrete..a sort of...I don´t understand the inch/yard-systeme.

But anyway, allways beg the concreteworkers to spread out all "magic-concrete" or primeslime to the bottom of the slab. The concrete above that will get hardened in right time. I know, because my company is not only a pumpcompany - My company do everything from plant and transporting to ready slab. My costumers do only want to call one number to finished their house. Yes, i confess: a carpenter work for me to build moles or roofs, but he has nada knowlege about concretepumps.....

He is a very skilled to he´s craft...carpenter.... - even if he don´t know how a pumpers is life from Am05.00  I have 8 thubs in my hands beside him...but he do his work very well.
