- Creating Adventurous Off-road Paths In The Wilderness. Using a Cat 309 cr excavator and cat 289d3 skidsteer to build trails through the woods
That tension on those logs is scary sometimes! Definitely been there before. Love getting a good fire going and burning as I go. Makes me laugh everytime someone says "You can't burn green stuff you gotta let it sit for 3-6 months" Oh yea? Stand back Cleetus and watch me show you some magic!
That’s right Jim!!!
Pour some diesel fuel on it

As a new business owner in excavation I just wanted to say I really appreciate your content and your honesty regarding the profession. Thanks for all the videos!
My pleasure!!!
I did the regular mowing today at Jolene's place. And then set off bush hogging along the driveways and behind the house with the excavator. Got about 4 hours in. Only had one car interruption... Amazing. Bush hogging in AC comfort feels like cheating.
Sounds like a great day!!!
Wait for Emma to show up in your video. I hope your having a great weekend
It’s gonna be awesome!!!
Nicely done, a little hill climbing on a trail is nice. Thanks for the tips, stay safe.
Will do Jeff!!!
Another great video. Thanks for taking us along on the job site, it's always entertaining.
Thanks for being here!!!
Great video Todd. These are my favorite to watch.
👍👍👍
Always enjoy your videos Thank you young man ALOHA from this side of the ocean, oh yes we have our share of humidity too with da Kona weather here on Oahu🌺🌴🍍🇺🇸✝️🤙🏽
Alohowdy!!!!
Mahalo. One of my favorite remote worker team mates is on the big island. Lives on an old Orchid farm. Remote work has brought insight into how many things I have in common across our country. And you need to start all your posts with "Hey brah" even though no one off island will understand.
Great to see life is good Tod. Fond regards to you and family from Graeme Durham uk x
Same to you Graeme!!!
Stihl makes a better chain saw file than that and it also files the cut stops at the same time
And they work really well.
I wouldn't say better, but different.
Some people like to set their rakers progressively rather than a set depth depending on what they are doing.
Also stihl doesn't make them.
Thanks for the tip
Todd, those kids are gonna have a riot cruising through those trails.
You bet!!!
Look into "interlube" made by Kimball Midwest. It's delayed viscosity so it goes on like liquid and drys like grease. Worked wonders on my old cat 307.
Will do!!!
Nice video I enjoyed it as always
Thank you sir!!!
What I’d give for 80 degrees lol 😂 96 in Texas grubbing mesquite in a open cab all the fun
You’re a tough one!!! I hope ya got a good size hat
Good one, Todd.. I LOVE YOU ALL !!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thanks again Mary😄
Nice work!
Many thanks 🙏🏻
It would make me feel better if you would get your saw stuck at least once! 😀🤪🤣
I’ll see what I can do hero 🤣
Great video Bro!
Appreciate it!
Another fun video
Thanks Mike 👍👍👍
95 here high humidity in south GA. Make you beg for your next breath 😆.
I know that’s right!!!
Good advise about burning poison ivy. I had a friend that was near a burn pile with poison ivy and he almost died. He was in the hospital for 2 weeks.
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻
A good friend of mine is 100% Cherokee Indian. Our native people are immune to skin contact from poison ivy. He was heavily exposed to fire smoke with poison ivy and had to go to the hospital. It's no joke. My dad was playing in the woods as a boy and had the urge to poop. He wiped up with whatever leaves he could grab. That caused a bad case and a lifetime of sensitivity.
@@AnomadAlaska that’s bad news
what camera and mount do you use for these videos? External mic?
Camera is the DJI osmo action 4. DJI mic 2. And I’ve got pretty much every mount they make
I have always been told to never burn poison ivy 🤷♂️. Are you still trying to sell the Yanmar excavator?
Nah. Probably gonna just keep it a while longer
At 24:20 when you're sharpening the saw, what causes those big chunks out of the excavator tracks? They dont look cheap to replace.
Probably little stumps, rocks, or debris on demolition jobs. Todd probably knows 100 other things with his seat time. Those are sacrificial rubber pads over steel tracks. So the damage isn't as bad as it looks or as expensive to replace as a full under carriage. Good eye, I was wanting to sharpen the saw. I need all the help I can get in that department.
Mr. Alaska nailed it!!! Just about anything hard and especially sharp rocks will do that
@@DigginLife21 thanks for the replies. I was surprised how large and fresh some of those look. The job you're on doesn't look bad for debris or sharp rocks.
How long would a set of tracks last? Would the loader tracks last longer or shorter?
@@GRid-yk2ru I’m not sure how long they will last. I do a lot of tracking. I would goes 5,000 hours. The Skidsteer holds up fairly well
do you keep a fire extinguisher in your equipment?
I always have one close by
Lots of talk about fire extinguishers after Andrew burned down his Hyundai. I'm thinking having a 5 gallon backpack sprayer with water near my machine is the way to go. I can refill that from many sources pretty fast. Or a firefighting p*ss pump, but they are a lot more expensive than a backpack sprayer from the big box store.
