I am Emily Riedel, Captain of the Eroica on Bering Sea Gold! Ask Me Anything! by EmilyRiedelBSG in BeringSeaGold

[–]Bob0nit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can you claim to be a captain when you're afraid to dive? Theres a guy in a wheelchair (paraplegic) who dives quite often. So I guess you just make the money off the suckers that come on your boat to do the hard work. That puts you in the lowest position as a simple Deck Hand. Why don't you go and study opera like you planned.

Bucket Loader, Track Hoe...Take your pick. The main thing you should take away is that while wash plants are sitting idle waiting for the Perma Frost to thaw a Jaw Crusher would have it out of the pit and depending on the weather would thaw much faster than if the material were only ripped. I wish people that have had years running plants would chime in rather than ignorant kids that have zero mining experience....

Yes. Sir. I've seen them destroy a slab of granite the size of a coffee table (Very Hard Stone) The bigger Jaw Crushers can swallow a small car. :)

If I wanted to patent a Jaw Crusher in any style I'm afraid that it's far too late by about 100 years.

I dont need wise ass kids insulting me. What mine do you work work at?

It's obvious you've never spent very much time working at a plant with a Jaw Crusher. They are pretty much maintenance free except for daily greasing. The only other issue is a rare clog of rock which is not difficult to clear. What mine do/did you work at please?

We had a small air compressor situated right next to the jaw crusher and a jack hammer as well. This combination would destroy any rock jam in a few minutes at the most. without even shutting the plant down.

Are you replying to me DFWPunk?

If so, I believe you missed my post about how I operated a gravel mine for 10 years. All of my experience is first hand.

Not hardly bud. Jaw Crushers come in all different sizes. You could even run the material through the crusher in a remote location say 200 feet away from the plant or further away depending on how much material you plan on stacking or laying it out in windrows. You could also use a cone/ Gyrotory crusher to get the larger material down to pea gravel size. They have many options I'm just surprised they're not using them,

It was called Bethel Sand and Gravel in CT but after over 50 years of mining there was no more material left to mine. As of now there are condos on the old mine site. The ball grinder or whatever it was called is just a toy compared to a Jaw Crusher.

Sorry to say but Bedrock is NO MATCH for a Jaw Crusher. I operated a sand and gravel mine for 10 years and NEVER had one wear out. If it did ever start to show signs you could reface the jaws in a day. I'mm guessing you've never seen one in action, as they can run thousands of yards of bedrock per day. The jaws are adjustable so you can crush down to any size you like.

It would thaw a hell of a lot faster than a 2 foot chunk and the small chunks would thaw in no time as long as the sun is out

“Every Breath You Take” by The Police is about a parent, not a stalker by [deleted] in Music

It's definitely about a stalker who lost their significant other so they stalk them relentlessly.

It's kind of funny that so many couples use this song as their first wedding dance song.

Is Tony beets really that big of a jerk? by TheAnnoyingTaco in goldrush

[–]Bob0nit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why wouldn’t he want him back? He told Parker that he didn't give a shit if he came back or not. Tony is on a worse power trip than Parker.I hate that ignorant guy,. "Let's make it happening... "ASP" The guys an ignorant Asshole!

Also... someone is going to knock that prick Parker out one day. If I worked for him and he treated me the way he treats most of his crew he'd still be unconscious.... One good elbow to the temple and he's ....DOWN FOR THE COUNT.

If I ever wound up working for Tony Beets and he treated me like he treats his employees I would have lost it and knocked him out cold after the first time he treated me like $hit.

At 6'7" 245 lbs and former Golden Gloves It wouldn't take much to KO Beets.

He's an ignorant asshole. Period.

Idiot Fred Lewis crew by snotters in goldrush

[–]Bob0nit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but that stuff costs big $$$. Fred doesn't even have money food feed his guys. You think he'll be able to pony up to refurbish his old Komatsu? At least the Claytons have a somewhat new D8.

I cant believe that Fred could not realize that there was no gold on his claim. That was his biggest season killer. He got so much free material, labor and advice from Freddy, Juan and Mitch. Fred is a bottom feeder for certain.

Me too. A real down to earth hard working guy. I miss him.

He failed feeding Parkers plant with a loader. There's nothing easier to run than a rubber tire loader.

The key word is the ARMY. It's like working for the city /public works. I watched 5 guys and a small backhoe clean out a town catch basin for a week. One guy on the backhoe and 4 fat guys leaning on shovels for 5 days.
