- About me,
- Hey I’m Kaleb, I’m 18 years old.
- Currently working in the logging industry. I’ve been on various different machines over the past 18 months, mainly log loaders and bulldozers(pulling and winching trees) Have also had a taste of forestry roading eg- driving a cat 730 haul truck, a marooka and a-bit of time on a roller. Mainly endhauling materials and tipping off tip heads. I’ve also done abit of breaking out under a hauler and pulling rope for a bulldozer. I’m not afraid of a shovel and can correctly use a grease gun regularly.
- Hope to hear back from you
- Cheers Kaleb
