I saw the guys on another board bragging about how much they have made in one day with thier Big (expensive) Truckmounts. I wanted to post his there, but thought that would be in poor taste

Anyway,

18,288 sq ft Gov't Building. High security,...(not a window in the whole place,...kinda weird).

Can't use a truckmount because they are not allowed to have any doors propped open.

We took 2 cimex's and 2 guys. We had 3 escorts that had to keep an eye on us while we worked. Fortunatley they did'nt want to be there all day either. So they helped a little by moving chairs, and finding electrical outlets.

We worked about 3 hours and 45 minutes. Got 9¢ a foot for a total of $1,645.92

Works out to 7 1/2 hrs total labor, @ $219.56 per hour.

That's pretty good for half a days work, and no high priced equipment either.

It would be nice to have one like that everyday LOL.

wow that's really moving Tom, nice work!

glad to see you posting here, always appreciate your comments. if it wasn't for you and Paul Brown i might not have ever took this great Cimex adventure.

i was thinking tonite on a job: my 'Mex is making a noise. i think the belt will have to be replaced soon. i can't recall in the 2 years of running this Cimex ever having to spend a penny on repairs. $85 for a belt in over 2 years of operation is what it's all about.

take care --- Derek.
