    Thank you for your contributions to the excavation community. You have demonstrated more equipments than anyone in the field.

    One of my favorite parts of watching Andrews videos are the long ariel shots. Well done.

    Interesting tool, looks like it worked fairly well, be interesting to see it in action when the soil is more dry. Hard to believe the birds were not scared of the drone at the end! Cool shots, neat looking house too. Thanks for the video!

    With your innovative mind set you came up with the simplest and easiest way of removing the preparator from the dump truck. ;-)

    I used to do all my own grading on the houses I built because I loved running my skid steer. On this one house, I used a new landscaper and he'd finished and I was using the prep to get ready for sod the next day. I was having my usual great time, and as I was sneaking up to the landscaping I noticed that something was moving really fast below the mulch. I froze and wondered what was going on. Honest to god the first thought that I had was that it was like a hundred snakes. Gave me the creeps. Turns out the new landscaper used landscaping fabric under the mulch and I'd just reeled in around 30 feet of the stuff. The guys that did my basements were across the street pouring and felt the need to stop and laugh their asses off. It took me at least a couple of hours to get the damn stuff cut out. For some reason those guys were always around when I did something boneheaded. They were always kind enough to remind me of that stuff whenever I saw them out and about, and the stories were always expanded whenever my wife was with me. One of them died a couple of years later when a trench collapsed on him. I sure miss em.

    That worked great. Great video. Thank you for taking the time to shoot the video and edit it all together, I know it takes LOTS of time to do that.

    I rented a Harley Rake, which is similar but leaves a rougher finish. I read up on how to use it before I rented it and running parallel lines followed by perpendicular lines, produced the best results. I got rid of some 2' ruts in my lawn this way.

    I don’t care what anyone says, this guy is a boss. It was his first freaking time running this attachment and he didn’t look unnatural at any point.

    I've used a rockhound and it also works great to resurface a stone driveway

    Man I miss doing this kind of work. I used to do stuff like this at a private golf course when I was growing up.

    That attachment, being like a sweeper and all, you should be able to stop the rotation, lift the arms & tilt forward, and then hit the reverse rotation. This will eject everything you've picked up. The beauty of doing it that way is you could pick up material and spread it around. I used to put a nice fine layer of sand over oil on the weighbridge at my last job at an asphalt plant. Hot black top, as you call it. :-)
