So you're standing in front of our Maxillus mother bin, 220 tonne.
00:05
It's one of the biggest mother bins in the world.
00:08
We also do a 300 tonne, but yeah, this one is at the Farm Fest in Toowoomba,
00:12
and I think it's pretty impressive.
00:14
My grandfather started this business.
00:17
It was originally known as Trufab Farm Machinery.
00:20
1981 when it started, and then, yeah, my dad and his brothers carried it forward
00:25
and then down to myself today.
00:27
Mostly they get towed behind a prime mover.
00:30
The 220 tonne here can be also floated on a drop-deck extendable,
00:35
but the majority of them are towed.
00:38
The 220 tonne here spec as it is, this has got a remote control limit,
00:42
and the location tyres, you're looking around about, you know,
00:46
420,000 plus the GST.
