 My devotion to designing and building machines that are easy to operate and maintain, The “Kiss Principal” (Blog #6), is the result of dealing with purchased machines during many years of owning and operating a construction business. Starting out as a Land Improvement Contractor, expanding into Water, Sewer, Telephone, Cable and finally Natural Gas Distribution. There were many times that a small “tweak” would make a very nice improvement to one a machine. Then, we embarked on a complete redesign of a mechanical tool one winter. Using an old combine engine, some junk pickup parts and the help of our core pipeline crew we came up with a small service and distribution line trencher. It looked crude, but it trenched several million feet of service line trench before we retired it. The next winter we tackled backfilling and came up with a rather unique, tractor mounted Drop Hammer. Then came our small sized Back Hoe. All were “Owner Friendly” in that they were very productive and easy to service and maintain with many locally sourced maintenance and service parts. Those machines became the foundation machines offered by “Bradco”, a company I founded in 1963 (About Us). I am proud to note, the Bradco Brand name is still a popular brand name today. As for “Owner Unfriendly” I am reminded of a time when I was forced to drive 650 miles 1 way overnight to get 4 V-Belts. This was long before FEDEX and the crew was idled until my return. I vowed never to put the owner of any equipment made by me in that position. Toward that end, many replacement parts for our machines are still locally sourced today. In the coming weeks, look for new blogs announcing new "Owner Friendly" data tracking capabilities. These issues and many more have been addressed with Orbit Screens, Inc.’s product line and we simply ask for your full consideration when making your choice.
