Andrew goes the extra mile for a video... He literally looked, found, and moved an entire tree stump just to show us how his new gadget works - that's dedication!
I thought it was a huge step drill bit the first second i saw it😂
@@1986Honda4trax I thought it was for opening wine bottles!
For the amount of money he’s making you would also..
I been watching since 4 years ago and yes he does!!
@@x01e Yeah, I mean he still does jobs but it’s clear playing with toys for RUclips generates a lot more cash.
To build off that, I find the evolution of RUclips channels quite interesting. As channels grow they essentially develop into vlogs. See: Andrew videoing himself building his roof or Demolition Ranch getting views renovating a mansion.
We love Andrew’s channel because it’s genuine. He doesn’t open each video with YT formula of subscribe click likes etc. there is no paraded women, no overhyped storytelling, graphics everywhere, he makes you feel you are in the garage with him. He doesn’t oversell himself as a personality. Doesn’t think he is greater than he is. Andrew is a humble dude
Especially with what I hate more than anything are the stupid faces people make of absolute shock or horror in their thumbnails for clicks. Exaggerated emotional & with mouths wide open, etc.. You know they are coached by RUclips to do that crap..
@@oldcrook510 and then andrew is there with just a nice basic picture of what's going on in the vid
And he pulls pallets : D
nice reality check comment, @james. I was going to skip this vid because of the Thumbnail. (Oh not another product promotion freebee vid) However, Andrew does drop in the all-encompassing (let's not read the manufacturing instructions and dive right in attitude) to present an open the box and we all learn something new (and have a laugh too (=entertained)). So now, I make a comment, and more educated both by Andrew and via the Commenters. I also assume the designers, (like me) and manufacturers learn too. (I may make a comment about the product later but I may also build me own with the suggested comments from Andrew)
Boy (gender dependent), there is a lot to learn from this game of YTbers.
@@lo-xborgus1928 😂😂😂😂😂 Most unconventional hey? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Andrew is a kind of NO Bullshit guy, straight to the point, I value it! 😎😎😎
Back after 3 years.. Good to see Levi again. RIP.
Seeing Cody run home with that strap at 11:33 is just the cutest thing
I know, right?
It made me laugh out loud. It was good to see Levi, but it's a bit sad, too.
I just laughed and shook my and and said Holy cow thats the cutest thing...and Andrew doesn't stop him from doing anything he wants.
I found it even cuter when he stole Andrews ear protection in another video. I think it was when he was making that double I-Beam on the rock next to the castle.
hmmm, Andrew driving up his driveway - mild enjoyment, dragging a pallet with a new tool on it - pure joy!!
You need a life
@@derekchauvinisahero2010 we have a life, watching Andrew in his every day life 😊
Wheels? Who needs wheels!
@@derekchauvinisahero2010 got plant some apple seeds about Johnny Appleseed.
That was classic Andrew!..lol
I love seeing him unbox all these different attachments for the machines
Apparently so does Cody. 👍😁
Yes i've told him he looks like a little kid on Christmas morning! 😂
I don’t think you’re telling the truth
@@GardenGuy1943 Go look in the comments on the video Buying a crawler boom lift then smartass!
AC is such a happy soul. His optimism is contagious. I'm glad he makes videos or I wouldn't even know he was alive.
Hey Andrew, when you are using the auger, drill down, then stop the rotation, lift the auger and the dirt will stay on it. Then just swing it aside and hit the rotation once or twice to remove the dirt. Otherwise most of your dirt is still in the hole. Cheers mate, love the videos, keep 'em coming!
Levi is breaking my heart man. Such a good ole boy.
Levi has put up with a lot from Cody's puppy days. He deserved that stick!
Who knew Andrew was going to stop and help the FedEx guy ? Everyone who's a regular watching his channel .
People who judge NYkers take notice. This is how Upstate NYkers are. I hate the politics of Albany and NYC just like the rest of the country does...but we are good people up here. We are rural and friendly to each other. We just talk fast.
@@davec.3198 I live in a small rural town in Northern Ontario Canada . It's the same here , freindly small town . Go to Toronto Ontario were it's large urban and it's culturally very different .
He Did push Him off the Road first,, then said Hay Buddy Do you Need A Hand,,,
@@davec.3198 I absolutely agree with that. I have some great friends who live near the CatSkill Mountains and they’re very nice and respectful folks.
You nailed it..
Watching Levi grow old warms my heart I have a field Labrador just like him and he is 15 it's my old man Henry man do these guys got some big heart when they get older Henry's just ticket everyday a little rough for him to get up at times like Levi but they still managed to do it I love watching these videos and watching the pups grow
As a former fedex driver who has been helped like that, thank you!!
Dragging a palette up a hill with an suv, classic andrew right there. 😅 and just to point out, thank you for being the one guy who helps out a stuck mail truck. There should be more people like you in this world andrew.
I pulled a semi out of a loading dock stuck in the snow one time with my f250. Meijer was back in business!!!
There are, but they do not have a popular RUclips following.
About the only help I'd give the FedEx ground drivers in my area is lighting their truck on fire 🔥😂
@@xephael3485 and I thought I live in a bad area.
To be honest. that’s just the way it’s done. Use the easiest thing you’ve got to get it done, and always lend a helping hand when you can. This is just a picture of rural America, all across this great country.
That stump grinder was definitely the most impressive of the 3
Yep, they are frickin fun! We have one for our digger and it can split big 5m logs on just a 3t digger...I absolutely love it.
New sales pitch..."Our tool survived an afternoon with Andrew, we guarantee it can handle anything you can throw at it!"
Lwc
Andrew you are a very humble person and I truly appreciate you!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
My wife says “you just worked all day now you are spending your time watching someone else work?” Why yes...yes I am!
Ok , me too . Laughed out loud at that!
Now go make us sandwiches
If it was in person, I'd have to get up and lend a hand. It's fun relaxing and watching somebody work, without feeling bad for not helping.
lol this comet made my morning I can hear my wife saying the same exact thing
you should leave her for saying that
I remember when i was a little kid my grandfather would jack up the back of his old blue ford, Remove a wheel and bolt one of those screw cones in its place to split fire wood. That sure brings back a lot of memory's.
That’s pretty creative. Work smarter not harder.
Yes I have seen videos on RUclips with that cone wood splitter on car driving hub , did a good job .
Memories?
Yeah, all I remember are trenches. Happy I’m not the only one
Pre covid- I hung out with my friends...
2021- my friend Andrew got a new auger attachment today.
Screw "covid", and the Commie horse it rode in on.
Awesome tools when Andrew unboxed it I thought the stump drill was gonna be worthless it done a great job. Like any piece of equipment it's all up to the operator! Andrew is the best!
Every time I watch your videos I find myself thinking of how proud your parents must be of you. You are the very definition of a self-made man. Your work ethic is unmatched, you are a kind and moral person, and you're uncompromising when it comes to the quality of your work.
They may be disappointed that he didn't stick with school and become a surgeon.
*uses drill to drill hole*
“Alright. That drills holes.”
Love it. This guy doesn’t get any better. Keep making videos!!!!
This needs a t-shirt
I was waiting for the "at'll work!" Figured that pin wouldnt last half an episode. Love that you adapt what is over-engineered and modify things to a method you know will work.
ANDY,, YOU Have SKILLS,,mad skills,, with All Tools, an MACHINE s !! You're the most capable person, I've ever seen. An your Furr Family Loves you too.
“Alright well that drills holes”
Best review it could have gotten
Yeah I cracked up when he said that.
Only the real subscribers knew the stump would hit the skid steer when it came off that hill.
I was waiting for him to it kick 45°to the side so he could just back out of the way but do love his take it to the limit attitude!!!!
I’m pretty sure that’s got more to do with having an understanding of gravity and physics.
@@nasa1985 the focus on his comment is more about andrew than gravity. Obviously it plays a part still
ive been running equipment for 12 years now and still that sound of popping, cracking wood is still just as satisfying as the first stump I pulled out of the ground.
Nice video Andrew as usual, and nice new attachment also. So sad to see Levi incapable to do things that he loved so much to do. But glad to see that although he's getting older, is in quite good condition for his age and still having fun following you.
Anyone else loving the sound of the tree stumps ‘cracking’?
No lie, I plugged my laptop into my speakers just so that I could hear that.
Same sound when Letsdig18 rips out trees with his excavator.
Yes that was awesome
It's better to hear the equipment or the work that's being done instead of music.
@@TF856 RUclips "music" causes ear cancer.
With all the equipment you have now id look into getting your own setup for making your own hydraulic hoses. Shop around and used you can pick them up pretty cheap. Its so convenient having everything on hand. You'll never regret it
Levi is getting that age. reminds me of my dog that passed two years ago. Take care of him, and love him like a good boy should be.
Little did you know. He would die a few
Months later after you. Made this comment. 😭
@@alastair_the_lyon That's the reason I stated he looks like my dog that passed. He started to look aged and was having trouble moving. I don't know how Levi passed, but mine passed out on the dog bed I prepared for him.
This is a timely vid Andrew. I have KX040-4 and need one of these for digging post holes. Great vid, thank you!
I think it's great that the video of him doing a job pays him more than the customer that hired/paid him to do the job.
I could be wrong but I've heard once you're partnered, you make about $1000 for a million views. I'm sure there are taxes and other fee's as well.
just a random thought .... is it me or is watching his videos on anything he does actually intriguing, i've been watching his videos ever since levi was bouncing about like cody, it will be a real sad day when levi goes to the big dog park in the sky.
Sad, yet a celebration, even now, to a life amazingly lived!
amen brother
Levi is a good ole feller!
Yeah poor levy he looks soo tired so sad it’s life 😢😢😢😢that’s how we get too when old .
You know who'll dig the grave. ?
Cody was trying to take over several times! Levy shows up at the end to Inspect. Priceless! Gotta love these two Labs!
Thanks for showing us the new equipment like we’re customers and we deserve an explanation and a demonstration great I loved watching every minute of it wish I could come out there and drill some stumps to! And I think back of the life that Levi has had he’s been on more adventures more pieces of motorized machinery but any dog on the planet he has had a great life thanks to his buddy! And visa versa❤️❤️
Dragging the pallet up the driveway is the most Andrew Camarata thing I’ve ever seen him do😂
That would be a long, slow drive down to the road-side in the skid-steer with the forks on it.
And then you still gotta come back up!!
haha!
you need to check out Whistlin Diesel! haha
I dunno. Taking a chainsaw to a dashboard to fit a stereo is pretty close to No1 on the list?
@@breebw Taking a -chainsaw- *"radio installation saw" to a dashboard to fit a stereo is pretty close to No1 on the list? *Fixed that for you!!* :-)
@@breebw well now it’s settled, we need to make an official list!
I like how you taught Cody to retrieve the strap for you.
That’s a really great piece of equipment you have bought there Andrew and can be used on every job that you go to.
Geez thank you for showing us this. I have had this in a shopping cart on the eTerra site for a year. Need to do this to about 40stumps and also like that it’s pretty much a fence. Putter-upper kit with the mixing bowl. SOLD!
Hey all I would like to say is that I just lost my bestfriend in a car accident and watching your videos cheer me up each day, because I always learn something new!
So very sorry, time is the only medicine for that kind of hurting. Hang in there.
I’m waiting for the “alright, that’s fixed” shirts
Ok so we’re on this job here today.
Not to be a stickler but I think it’s usually “alright, that’s fixed”
@@spinningchurro your right
@@joebruggman Said exactly what you said but his way of saying it is better. People don't pay enough attention to what's going on in the world around them anymore. That's why we end up with liars and idiots as president.
@@williambryant5946 wdym
Nice to hear you bringing back the old banger songs. That last drill bit was a beast too.
This is just the most wholesome and awesome channel. I love my job but I’m super jealous of Andrew’s lifestyle too! I’d love to meet him.
Andrew’s method of bringing new equipment up his driveway: Drag it through the dirt.
I think he was grading his driveway. Multi tasking!
Great comment!
I would like to see the old tracked loader go again.
well you need to let the equipment knowh whats to come :D
Damn i wish i could do that, dragging brand new heavy equipment at my driveway 😉
My first thought after seeing the pallet dragging behind the truck...
"Dude, the wheels came off your trailer"
I think the last attachment is my fav. The log splitter seemed it could benefit from being longer/ less taper for the stumps you were trying to split. Cool tools an was great to watch!!
It's so relaxing watching Andrew's video's / feel's like how work should be :)
Your editing is really on point and underappreciated. It so entertaining throughout. I recently watched a few vids of letsdig18 and even though he has uploaded for 10+ years, your channel is more successful and I think it's down to your great storytelling, by holding on to footage for years, to form a cohesive story with neat and satisfying endings and your edits and changing camera angles. Maybe it doesn't get mentioned enough, but the effort really shows in quality and my enjoyment when you upload is always high!
what way to express yorself, totally agree
@Nils You've got a good eye yourself. Thanks for pointing out this. Good editing is underappreciated!
Talent seems to be almost universal. It is fascinating to see that great actors generally are singers, dancers, directors, cinematographers and such. Talent seems to be an attribute that is flexible and malleable, and one either has it or one doesn't. Andrew has it!
And so far no thumbs down cause nobody can deny!!
Andrew definitely does a great job and part of his charm is that he leaves in the mistakes and screw ups, actual learning from mistakes, true reality !!
Love this guy. draggin a pallet with his packages on it up his hill with his car 😆
Beneath Andrew’s quirky ideas lies a sharp intelligence beyond just academics. Pray he will keep his genuine humility.
Cool attachment. Always good to see Levi on the job. 💪👍🏼🐶
Poor Levi... he’s getting old, he sees Cody running around and probably misses being able to to do that, it sucks getting old
pretty sure Levi just wanted back in his seat. He got out inspected things and now wants back in. Damn he is getting old. Going to be a sad day for sure. Not only for Andrew yet the millions of people who have watched him over the years.
It's hell to get old but it beats the alternative.
@@Guysm1l3y But there are days when the body and the mind have had enough of the struggle and pain and the alternative looks damn good.
Blue pill to Levi.
When Levi looks at Andrew you can see unlimited love in his eyes.
When Andrew gets new equipment, he's like a kid with new toys.
Edit: thx for the likes :D
You know that was exactly what i was thinking! could just imagine what Andrew was like as a child at Christmas opening all his presents.
And WE get to play along! I really want my own medium sized excavator.. :p
The only difference between a man and a boy, is the price of their toy :)
he has such high hopes for his gadgets.....
Aren't we all? :D
The Florida pool pump motor repair guy approved ! that was good info Andrew. back in 70's they one made bolt rear tire truck/car. safe too .. I seen one too !!
Well that was impressive and looks like something I will be looking at closer for future purchases. Thanks Andrew.
All Canadian guys: - Hmm, that thing sure would take my ice fishing to a whole new level...
a HOLE new level, if you will
32:58 that what she said (after also trying it) 😁
Not long enough.
Stumps - 0 Andrew - 4
@@canadiangemstones7636 the auger would be more than long enough??
Let’s get him to 1 million I am just surprised he hasn’t hit 10 million
I agree he should already be at 10 million ! But a million would do i'm glad i subscribed.
If he would get him a tilt /rotator for that excavator he will hits million quick. Those things r fun to watch and so far the American guys only get the tilt bucket. Go watch hedblom run his. U can’t get enough of it and it makes me want to go get one to learn. I bet these young guys can pick it up fast if they play videos games
I've seen 5M tubers that weren't half as entertaining
This man is so good woth his dog. He is biting and pulling the strap he is using but says nothing to the dog. No fussing. Just keeps on working. Such a good guy.
Yea I agree he is a good guy
8:07...Well, that drills holes...LOL. This guy is so great. He’s just matter of fact. I enjoy your videos my man!
Andrew at 5:23AM, half-naked with morning coffee, browsing heavy machinery toy accessory catalogue:
"How cool is that? I wanna drill something."
*adds to shopping cart*
false, he said he gets up at 9. otherwise, spot on.
@@nocoolname32 How do you know the other parts aren't false? My point is, it was a joke, and it should be taken as one.
@@netts2315 you're not the only one who was joking around. don't you ever watch "The Office"? "False"
That stump "grinder" is sweet.
Stump buster
Could use it to mak a hole in a big stump for burning it
Andrew, your love to Levi is hart-breaking :) Levi is like the wine - older it gets sweeter it is. Much fun and health for you and your famili, including your dogs ofcourse !
Cody’s a crack up. Looks great. That stump buster looks cool. Thank god for reverse. Looks like smaller bites worked best on the fresh stumps to avoid getting stuck. Used to have one of those portable hydraulic hose end crimper setups. Definitely nice to have in a pinch.
I’ve actually never seen a cone attachment for an auger before. Really cool.
@paul humphreys You need a bunch of water to wash away all your salt.
@paul humphreys : He thinks you’re being negative and instead of pointing out why he disagrees with you, he’ll just call you “salty”. I don’t think the cone attachment is a complete waste of money but it could benefit from being run on a more powerful machine. Looks like the kubota doesn’t have enough juice to get through big stumps quickly.
I believe that the cone is for splitting logs into planks.
@@williamfindspeople4341 I’ve been in the rental equipment business for almost 20 years and I’ve never seen one. Pretty wild and very specific.
they make em' for hand drills too
"This pallet is all scratched up for no good reason" - probably Andrew
Interesting drilling and splitting attachment-sure you will find all kinds of uses for it!
Your videos are extremely inspiring for me, makes me want to get out and get stuff done!
FEDEX Handles my packages like he drags that pallet
And pulls them out of a ditch, all in one day.
Lol
The AC way quick and dirty !
I would rather pay UPS to deliver my package than have FedEx deliver it for free.
I get this from FedEx as well but after they drag it behind the truck across the US they leave it next to the porch swing. I don't have a swing on my porch.
Levi is like the supervisors on my site, just wanting to go back and sit in the truck aha
Man I want that ihi. Never seen such a reliable hard working skid.
HOW does Andrew not have 1mill subs yet? Blows my mind!
“Well, alright, that drills holes...”
gotta love it.
Best way to bring a pallet up your driveway😂
Reminds me of those couch surfing videos.
yeah it’s fast and easy doiiii
Level driveway same time
I liked the third instrument most...because of its crunching sound and the ad hoc fabrication of compost - the future humus. Well done video, I enjoyed it very much!
I’ve just bought one over here in the UK , mine just has the cone splitter, awaiting delivery any day now. Cool useful attachment 👍🏻
Cody has a ton of energy, and always good for a laugh. Good to still see Levi.
Levi is a good boy. The one video we don't want to see is coming closer...
Cody is the next Levi
I genuinely was not expecting a pallet strapped to the hitch. Hilarious hahaha
Always enjoy your videos - can't wait to see the boulder drill!
Andrew a 10" auger works really well for planting 3-5 gallon nursery plants. Saying this knowing you rent your equipment. Installing hedgerows would make a perfect fit for this machine !! A few years back I planted 400ft of Viburnum and this would have been very useful !!
Perfect timing. I just finished a day of work from home office work, now I get to watch someone do hard work outdoors. The work I wish I could do but cannot. Thanks for sharing as always Andrew!
Hey, I hear you.
Andrew needs the rock drill and then get his license to do blasting, would be handy with all the rock up there + great video content
That stump shaver/grinder is by far a lot quieter than a traditional stump grinder. My neighbor across the street and 2 houses down had someone come out and grind some stumps a couple weeks ago and for an hour an a half it sounded like I was next to a major construction site...
Cody cracks me up!
years ago, we had a cone attachment for our riding mower called "The Unicorn. it bolted to a wheel. mower was lifted partially off the ground next to wood pile, logs were sammed against the Unicorn, with mower in gear in moments that thing would crawl its way into log. splitting it neatly and easily. loved it! Michigan winters allowed a Lot of use for that gadget!
Oh gawd, poor Levi. He looks happy but seriously struggling. :(
You said you gona close that open equipment building.sure everybody want to see that.are you starting soon?
Hopefully this spring/summer.
You have a keen understanding of what people are interested in and want to watch.
With great pleasure I always watch Andrew's channel that many more videos may follow .... Andrew greetings from the Netherlands.
You could make flower pots out of stumps with that last attachment.
I thought that too. When he hollowed that one out, could have filled it with soil and planted in it ~ 100% natural, recyclable planter or, put another way, free flower pot.😁
“Great tool and it comes with a free dog toy” Andrew has enough oneliners to fill a complete t-shirt collection, in all sizes!
Good hard work, well done. Also, the builder can estimate the difficulty of drilling a well. Thanks for sharing! Stay Healthy!
That cat 955 excavator is the best machine that cat has made in manny manny years ! Last forever !
"you saved the day, thank you so much." That made me happy!
guy was just about ready to call his boss and explain he needed a tow😂😂
This dude... always workin. even when he's playing he's working.
Lol hes like “Its my day off work, time to split some logs!”
@@mitchio83 Exactly! No work to do? Looks for more work to do lol
It's research and quality control..
@@TheBibliofilus Truth
Hi Andy I love watching your videos because you are not frightened of spending and bettering yourself and equipment
I love that stump shaver drill! I agree with you Andrew, it would be nice if it were bigger. But, like you said, you'd probably need a bigger excavator to drive it.
I wonder how many bikinis he had to sell to get those new attachments 🤔😂
Good videos as always AC 🤙🏼😎
I'm sitting in mine watching... How about you?
Fred
I think ANdrew gets products
Gratis
@@morgannoecker8702 He said that he bought them and, if he was given them ,he'd have been specifically promoting them as that would be part of the deal.
@@nickturner2813 come on dude. You know how it works.
Man, Levi is showing his old age.
Every time I see him in one of your videos I am scared it’s the last time.
It’ll be a very sad day when he goes.
Make sure you spoil him good and proper every day while he‘s still here
That’s quite an effective tool that you have Andrew!
Really nice! I’ve got a auger attachment for my skid steer, I think I’ll look into a cone splitter end for it. We have a stump grinder attachment that works really well.
