Stone Block Handoff

This is continuation of a series of videos showing the excavators working on the Salisbury jetty. In this video the first excavator is bring out a huge flat stone block. All goes well until the tractor drops it (oops!) He picks it up again and has a better grip on it. You will notice how slowly and carefully the excavator drives out onto the jetty. Very safety conscious. The block of stone is probably about 18 or 19 tons in weight. Once the excavator gets out to the area being repaired it puts the stone down and the second excavator grabs it.
