Just a couple pics of my truck and I helping some local farmers. The grain trailer would top out at around 26,000 lbs when loaded with soy beans. Used it to haul both beans and corn into the grainery for a local farmer who was down with colon cancer during harvest season while Dad ran his combine for him.

The soil finisher was bought by a buddy of mine at an auction about 50 miles away from his farm. It's about 14 feet tall by 14 feet wide by 30-some feet long and weighed in the neighborhood of around 15,000 lbs. Pulled nice, but it takes a long time to travel 50 miles at 20 mph... especially when you're pulling off the side of the road ever couple miles to let traffic by!

Dust collector sucks the dust out of the air well sandblasting inside a tank. the vacuum is used to clean up the sand. its way better then using a wheelborrow and shovel.
I used to sandblast at a powdercoating shop. Very sucky job i had to shovel the sand back in when the pump deal ran out. Loud, dirty, shitty job i got my hand one time too, not pretty.
