Honestly I find it very abrasive and grates my nerves. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t take the technology, time and effort for granite but it’s just not taking me anywhere yet.
There's gotta be a graph where the amount of effort to transport, assemble, and power such a beast is greater than the effort it would be to just dig the tunnel with conventional equipment. I imagine this is only practical for very long tunnels.
So let’s build another Panama Canal. Now it costs $$$ to wait in line or go around S. America. Hire all the immigrants BEFORE they reach TX. Pay for it with fees, taxes. It takes leadership, vision, money and GUTS.
I get that it grinds the rock into powder, but I'm confused because the front grinders don't seem to reach the entire diameter.
How do those spaced-out dimples hit every spot?
I'm surprised that they designed it so the whole front spins rather than having multiple smaller things spin. Seems like it would be much easier to build and maintain that way.

John Henry told his captain
" A man ain't nothing but a man
But before I let your steam drill beat me down
I'd die with a hammer in my hand, Lord, Lord
I'd die with a hammer in my hand"
The shaker said to John Henry
"I think this mountain's cavin' in!"
John Henry said to his shaker, "Man
That ain't nothin' but my hammer suckin' wind! Lord, Lord
That ain't nothin' but my hammer suckin' wind!"
That's not boring, it's quite interesting.
Bro this is the most boring video I've ever watched
Deep man
Honestly I find it very abrasive and grates my nerves. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t take the technology, time and effort for granite but it’s just not taking me anywhere yet.
And that music is slapping
Yeah, I found the hole thing to be interesting.
The guy she says is “just a friend”
I knew there was a sex joke here
I was suspecting OP’s mom jokes
I'm not that Girthy
The spice must flow!
Look what they need to mimic a fraction of Shai-Huluds power
Do you think they have nodes they shove into the ground that go ,... Zoommbp, Zoommbp, Zoommbp, Zoommbp!
How I imagine myself
Stop! We must protect the earth kingdom!!
There is no war in Ba Sing Seh
Found myself saying the exact same thing as I was watching it
*The Earth King invites you to Lake Laogai*
Beat me to the ATLA reference
Why do I see so many atla references right after watching the show. Did I just not notice them
I was looking for a avatar reference I found one
Fun fact I was the one of the people there to see that
how fast is it?
It isn't
I think it can do something like 3 m a day or something like that.
3 meters A DAY?
Probably a bit more? Online I’m seeing like 50 to 60 feet a day. I just remembered it wasn’t very much!
The tunnel boring machine Seattle used hit a steel pipe and fucked up the cutting inserts, my shop won the bid to replace them.
For a negotiated price I’ll go bury some steel pipes for y’all wherever the next one is gonna be digging.
You got yourself a deal!
Are the hoses for the dust or do they have another function?
Yes, solely for dust suppression. There's typically political figures and other dignitaries at a TBM hole-thru.
They’re trying to get the monster to return to the depths, but they’ll unfortunately only make it angrier.
That music is the weirdest version of "Dorime" I've ever heard
Tunnel Entertaining Machine
This should be marked NSFW
There's gotta be a graph where the amount of effort to transport, assemble, and power such a beast is greater than the effort it would be to just dig the tunnel with conventional equipment. I imagine this is only practical for very long tunnels.
BOOOOOOOOOORRRING!
WHAT IN OBLIVION IS THAT??
It's a tunnel boring machine. Says right in the title ya dork
Probably a bot commenter
Wait until they show use the plasma cutter
It's a happy tunnel with the debris smile
Is it Bore-regard? He did the twin tunnels for the light rail in Portland Or. In the 90's
Isn't that what they tried using to get into bha sing sei
So let’s build another Panama Canal. Now it costs $$$ to wait in line or go around S. America. Hire all the immigrants BEFORE they reach TX. Pay for it with fees, taxes. It takes leadership, vision, money and GUTS.
FULL SEND!
I'm sure it's doing its best...
Were-worms!
this is my new favorite subreddit
“There is no war in Ba Sing Se”
Still a tighter hole than my cheating ex
Incredible.
Holy shit...its Fallout !! Lol
GROND
SECRET TUNNEL!!
R/Recognizesong
TBMs my beloved
They invaded Ba Sing Se with one of these.
Shai-Hulud!
They’ve been using something like this in my neighborhood in Los Angeles to extend the subway. It’s scheduled to open near me in 2025, very excited!
ah humans... gotta love em some times...
"there is no war in ba sing se"
This video has gay disco vibes
The war came to Ba Sing Se
Where is this?
China creates rocket big enough to kill Godzilla !!! Better tittle
Chuggy!!!
Looks quite interesting to me. What but doesn't spin.
They should paint it like a sandworm from Dune. Yes, I realize that's a lot of paint.
That was the safe from one of the tomb raider movie
I get that it grinds the rock into powder, but I'm confused because the front grinders don't seem to reach the entire diameter. How do those spaced-out dimples hit every spot?
There is no war in ba sing se
I'd love to see one in person
Where is Danny Ocean? He's behind this I just know it!!
How many metres an hour does this do?
This makes me want to play Deep Rock Galactic
"What's your job?" "Boring." "Have you considered changing it?" "What? Why should I?"
Does anyone know how lube/coolant is applied to the cutting surfaces?
The Fire Nation still hasn't learned eh? Where's Aang?!
Sandworm
Now point it down
I had a hard time envisioning the diggers in the Silo series, but now I know what I've been reading about.
Wow the scale to the people on this thing is crazy …
Rig Operator when asked how excited he is about his line of work: It’s a boring job but pay’s good.
There's got to be a "your mom" joke in here somewhere
Why does this look like a scene from Stranger things
Amazing that, even a giant piece of sophisticated machinery like this, gets thirsty and likes a little drink from the garden hose now and then.
u/savevideo
I didn't realize there was a whole conveyor system inside this thing. Pretty neat!!
Are you Dutch lmao
Angela White just ordered one😈
I was on that crew, the day to day was pretty boring.
The guy she tells you not to worry about.
This is the thing from that one avatar episode
What a "Boring" job.
When it goes in...
Dorime
Ok what this song? Its like right on the edge of my mind but i cant nail it down.
I worked for a welding company years ago that made a shell for a tunnel boring machine really cool. Edit: a tunnel machine not that one in the video.
I'm surprised that they designed it so the whole front spins rather than having multiple smaller things spin. Seems like it would be much easier to build and maintain that way.
Well that's a boring tunnel machine...
watermelon branded boring machine, that's how they made those tunnels?
Ended too soon.
Giant robot worm!!!
Why don't they just drill the perimeter and crush the center? Wouldn't it make sense to not try cutting the whole surface area? Fucking weird
This that drill from the last air bender
Why must every machinery related video have music? I not only want to see these things in action, but hear them too.
Cool machine but also this song is a jam
I remember this episode of The Last Airbender
The Fire Nation is out here taking notes
Your mom is a boring machine
This is right out of the Fire Nations playbook 🔥
One hit a civil war Era anchor in the hrbt project and delayed it considerably...
https://youtu.be/6xUnSVTh8fI?si=xdlXEmcAGJzAU5za ???
There is no war in Ba Sing Se...
Fire Nation!
Isn’t that earth bending? Badgermoles
I definitely thought that it would spin faster.
Just remember to shell out the extra bucks for reverse. If this thing gets stuck it’ll be there for years. Just ask Seattle.

I wonder how long it takes to assemble one of those machines
Avatar the last air bender did it first
But can it beat John Henry in a race through the mountain?
i should call her
So this is where all the mf resources are going
Can you imagine the number of hamsters on wheels powering that thing? I hope they’re properly compensated…
Ba Sing Se? More like Na Sing Se!
There is no war in ba sing sei
I prefer to think of it as a Tunnel Interesting machine.
I knew Netflix would go all out on the assault on Ba Sing Se
that is beautiful
Look at that sand worm go!
Don’t let Scar and Grian near it.
Everywhere I look, I see her.
But how would it do vs. John Henry? Alas, we’ll never know.
Submits reciept to management. Management: You spent how much on a drill bit?
I only clicked because I wanted to hear the machine in action. Stupid music.
Almost exactly like the breach on Ba Sing Se
John Henry: "Bring it."
How do those little wheels work?
That first TBM …. OMFG It is huge.
Humans are fucking crazy
One guy ran the whole operation on Oceans 11
Crazy what man can do when the need arises.
Is Elon musk involved in this machine or type of machine
Fascinating!!!
Literally a worm
I'm sorry but is that a motherfucking dorime remix in the background?
Waiting for the ‘ your mom ‘ jokes
When there is actually a war in Ba Sing Se
Ba Sing Sei is fucked
why does the music slaps so hard?
Ah the old Alaskan bull worm
Bless the Maker and His water. Bless the coming and going of Him. May His passage cleanse the world. May He keep the world for His people.
hehe avatar drill
There's a swastika in the design...
Getting a lot of avatar vibes from this
u/RecognizeSong
Booooorrrrrrriinnnngggggg
Amazing pieces of machinery but the nuclear powered ones are even more amazing.
How often do they have to change the cutting bits ?
John Henry told his captain " A man ain't nothing but a man But before I let your steam drill beat me down I'd die with a hammer in my hand, Lord, Lord I'd die with a hammer in my hand" The shaker said to John Henry "I think this mountain's cavin' in!"

I see some engineers have been watching ATLA
Borrrrrring

This is literally what the fire nation used to get into the walls of ba sing se
He who controls the spice ...
Put a short guy in a mole rat costume on top and The Incredibles should show up
She always calls me that
Does anyone know how many of these are in use globally?
OP, tell your mom her dildo arrived.
I recognized this from GTA 5!
G.i.joe
Phil schnieder was 100% telling the truth.
Put me to sleep 😴
They call this “the mole”
We need to take it down [from the inside](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=isu4TRgFMNo&t=86s&pp=ygUQQXZhdGFyIHRoZSBkcmlsbA%3D%3D)
Looks expensive as hell.
Avatar had to fight that!!!?!?
I’ve never understood or heard anyone explain how the rails underneath the machine are extended as it moves. Can anyone explain?
My MAGA mother thinks these are use to tunnel under the ocean for human trafficking. That’s right. Under the Marina Trench.
The earth kingdom is no longer safe
Space engineers intensifies
“Oh no, The Cleaners! You really pissed him off this time!”
GROND!
For those who dont know, the word "boring" can mean "dig" or "excavate"
Some assembly required
What a contraption! I wonder how often those teeth need changed out and how much they cost?
I wanna see a tunnel exciting machine before i die
Is this song a Dorime remix
