West Mineral, Kansas, Big Brutus 1850-B Electric Shovel,11 million pounds in weight, 90 cubic yard shovel, 3 people operated it. The yellow bulldozer to the right of this is a Caterpillar D6. Bucyrus Co. built this in '62-'63. Bucyrus built 77 of the 102 shovels that dug the Panama Canal.
Could be a wolf spider too, also very common in western Oregon, friendly, good kind of spider. I had one for a pet for a year 45 years ago, fed it flies, called it Boris...

Looking good, MarkD!
Looking good, MarkD! Especially the artichokes, one of my faves.
The baby artichokes can be used in paella -- and there's an easy baby arti appetizer I learned how to make in Spain if you ever want a recipe.

Anyone know if this spider is dangerous?
Thought there might be a Zoner spider expert!
I have lots of spiders for some reason but this one is huge and first time I've seen this type.
Yes, I am worried it will drop on my head while sleeping and don't want to trap or smash it unless absolutely critical.

Google sez it's a Giant House Spider (Eratigena atrica or Eratigena duellica). Harmless to humans.

Was thinking it would be a much more dramatic variety than the one you found, LOL.
Mark me safe from the giant spider!
