I appreciate the video. I especially like that you let the sound of the D11N play, no music or excessive commentary. What an awesome piece of equipment and a great operator.
This is how my brother in law taught me how to operate. Gave me a 943 cat and set ne out in a field and said dig a hole to fit the machine i could drive in and walk from the ground to the cab roof to ground on the other side. The I had to fill the hole back in without extra dirt and it had to be packed down as well . I was 11 back then . Good training
I love watching any earth moving equipment working, i i would love even more is to drive them , i also love the sound of big diesels, so thanks for NOT putting music in, much appreciated.
It's good to see a private operator having a play with the big toys which we don't usually see in the mining videos. And Phil has the experience to get the best work out of the machine by loading the blade just right for a big push. The full load at 12:21 has the Big Girl pumping big iron but at no stage does she ever sound under strain. A beautiful sound.
Grew up around heavy equipment (no D11, but big) and dad always said if you’re spinning you ain’t Winning!! Definitely keeping it right at the teeter point! Great video!!
Well done boys, reminds me of a giant dragline in America. It was used to rip the overburden off the top of the coal seam and ran off electricity from the nearby powerstation, when her job was done they buried her in her own hole. There was a crew onboard to run it and another crew to move the extension cable. Tiny still has a job and the grandkids will have fun riding through there till it fills up with water.
Me and my son sat here watching this whole video... We both really enjoyed seeing this... Thank you. We had already looked up the spec's of this series of high-drive dozer, and when we say "Thank you", we realized, how expensive that was to dig that simple hole, as per, diesel cost for one hour of running the machine, the wear and tear on the machine in all aspects of track wear, cutting edge wear, motor and drive line wear, etc... this was all in all, about $5000 dollar hole, when we calculated the approx cost and end game, insurance cost to own the unit, getting the machine to that spot, even if you own the land the hole was dug on, etc.etc.etc.... We really appreciated watching this... Normally, you just see a dozer pushing material around with of course, purpose and design, but to just dig a deep hole with a dozer, I do not think I have ever seen that in my life, let alone, on video... You guys, might be the first to have filmed a D-11 just digging a biga$$ hole, just to be digging a big a$$ hole... So, Thank you.. that was really cool to watch.
Thanks! If these machines were new that might be the case but our estimated cost to dig a hole for 50 minutes is probably around $300 ( $150 fuel and $150 wear and tear)
@@thejacksonbrothers I will screen shot this and send this to my son at school, that will give him something to chat about at school, and I tell him if the teacher has issues with it... "He is discussing general economics with his classmates"... Lol.. thank you for the factual info or correction. We were just assuming the costs which was fun to do, as it took us about 30 minutes to look up costs of everything and then keep dividing until we got down to one hour worth.. that was fun, even if we were way off.. either way, we had a fun time.
Aussies and Floridians salute in exactly the same way! Got myself into a situation once with a tracked skid steer. I found that the hole I was in ended up steep enough that I could no longer scoop a load of dirt at the bottom and keep it in the bucket while backing out.
Great idea for a video, I'll bet you any money you would not get a mining company here in Australia to do this with one of their D11s. I would love to hear the sound of the big V8 with the camera you had mounted on top of the cab ( as on the video...D11 Does a Hill Climb!!) Matt and Phil are a great pair when it comes to D11s...Thanks Boys.
On today's fuel prices at 2.20 per and 200 litres of fuel that's $440 for a bit of slap n giggle. In the beginning I was thinking to myself; bet the old man don't know about this; then blow me down he's in on it. Great stuff team.
On a much much smaller scale I have a 1949 Cat D2 wide track with a blade on the front and a hydraulic spreader bar with six 18" rippers on the back. I love ripping the ground. It is just cool seeing the power of the little guy work the land.
The girl is a power house . At least that undercarriage look good. I was watching another video earlier of a D11 they were using it as a pusher for pans an the tracks were so thin you could about see thru the steel an no teeth on the Drive . I am a retired heavy equipment mechanic of 54 years . I still love watching all of them work. Thanks
Hello ! How did you get your old age pension so early at the age of 54, which country do you live in. I live in Estonia and I only got my pension at the age of 64 in 2023, now I no longer work.
Well done. As a drone pilot for real estate, the tricky thing can be keeping your drone's shadow out of the shot so it will have the magic of being overhead without giving away how you got the shot. Sometimes it just comes down to editing.
Making the road to the top of the lookout was hair both hair raising and thrilling , Phil is a genius , how does he know the dozer is not going to flip the dozer over backwards , this scares me , I do love watching scrapers combining with dozers to move large volumes of dirt extremely quickly. Would the Jackson brothers ever like to own a scraper? Is Phils hole going to be Lake Phillip , so the kids can have a swimming hole in summer?
My cousin's husband was a bulldozer operator with the Royal Australian Engineers in Vietnam and this he told me years ago was the very first thing he did when he was assigned to a job. He go the the S.O. find out what was to be done and where he could bivouac. Digging the hole for the dozer was the first job to project from assaults.
Hello Matt , I hope You and Phil ran this by Brad and got His permission to dig this hole , You can see where curiosity trait comes from , with Peter lurking in the back ground , all in good fun and scientific endeavor , keep it coming , D11 jumping buses , that would be fun .....
Thats just what the old girl needed, a good workout. Started of with a bit of smoke but by the meter deep mark it was all gone and its down to business as usual.
Great video and amazing to see the D11's capacity and sheer power and size at display!! I would like to hear more about the D11 comparision to the 42 ton excavator, even if the excavator would take longer time, what would the cost per ton of moved material be?
The slot dozing technique is the most efficient and fastest way to get a deep hole fast, that way your not wasting any movement, wish I had toys like that to play with lol
I’ve retired from mining now was a fitter but the D11N&D11R will always be my favourite mining tool the sound of the 3508 pushing from the cab and on the ground I will always remember, the new D11T’s don’t have that sound 😢
If phil just tiped the machine at the top of the hill he could shake off another meter or two, and my guess would take approx. 30 seconds more. ALLAMERICAN AL
It would of used about 80-90 litres to dig this hole👍 maintenance is engine oil every 250hrs and fuel filters, final drives etc every 500, and every 1000hrs is things like hydraulic and trans filters. It’s not as much money to service as you would think👍
Looks like solid material at that depth,on my land once you get past 12-16 ft. it turns into blue clay,hard as shale,has to be ripped or use excavator.
You know when a D11 spins it's tracks with grouser bars that big on them that is under a heck of a load and pushing some tonnage. I'd say Phil was push 120T+ when he was slipping the tracks.
Im headed to work atm. Sitting in the qantas lounge. Watching a D11 rip. Funny as at work tomorrow i will be crawling all over d11s and D10s fixing shit. Looks like fun though. I got to drive a d11t at the last mine i was at.
I dig huge machines! I was born in S. Idaho and raised on a large ranch/farm of around 4000 acres. A little smaller than your 6178 acres. The largest machinery we had were a couple of Steiger “Big Green Machine” tractors. Plenty of CASE, International and Massey Ferguson’s. Had New Holland narrow beds, Freeman 3-wire balers, MACK, International, Peterbilt and Kenworth’s for hauling our potatoes, seed alfalfa, grain and hat bales around. I was sitting on the seat of smaller tractors at the age of 10 and 11 working my ass off. We never had huge dozers or road graders. If our Steigers couldn’t do something, then we had a guy come and do it. Haven’t seen many of your videos yet, so I am wondering if you guys are contractors as well for heavy equipment? 🤔
I read in an earthmovers magazine about a D11R that slot dozed 1 million tonnes of sand and gravel a year one operator working 8hrs a day. I recon you guys wouldn’t be far short of that 👍🏻🏴
You guys have such a great fun Dad if this hole was really just for fun, my Dad would have yelled at us wasting fuel wearing machine out on and on lol.....now you know how deep and fast anyhow this was fun interesting video men.
Holy mackerel that dozer had a load on it at times, as u said 100 odd ton, wow and the engine sounded like it was only just off idle 😂. The only question now is, why ?
That cat bulldozer sounds awesome with caterpillar diesel power blowing black smoke pushing some dirt 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

Like how pop’s comes along to see how well he taught his boys to play! Awesome Dad . That was an awesome video Matt & Phil sweet!
Great job Phil it’s nice to watch a brilliant operator in action and you didn’t do a bad job on the camera Matt , enjoy your hole cheers guys
I would have to say Phil got a good eye with the d11 very smooth 👍
What a machine, plus the operator is one of the best, well done Phil .
Always good when Dad shows up

Yes, I agree.....bloody background music would have spoilt that great V8 sound. Matt knows when to add music to his videos....lol.
What a brilliant idea getting Phil to dig a hole in which to bury Brad and Matt’s mistakes!

Didn't appreciate the size of the hole till Phil walked to the bottom of it. Then its OMG that's enormous !!!
Grew up around heavy equipment (no D11, but big) and dad always said if you’re spinning you ain’t Winning!! Definitely keeping it right at the teeter point! Great video!!
Just love watching a D11 work, pushing and ripping. Would love to be the operator for a day or two.

Really enjoy your show Matt. Love to spend time with my friends from down under!
Just amazing! Not only did he dig a hole, but he built a mountain also.
All i see is two brothers playing with their Tonka toys in the sandpit.
Then their father comes along and joins in the game haha 😄
Living the dream by the looks😅
Jealousy gets you nowhere
Tonka toys that both cost and pay fat stacks of money
Have you priced Tonka toys lately those things are bloody expensive!@@m4vr1ck

Appreciate the focus on safe and responsible tree removal practices using bulldozers.
That is a truly massive dozer, makes you appreciate the shear size of that thing! Loving the vids watching from Herefordshire U.K 👌
This is enjoyable for me to watch!
❤ love watching the D11's in action
Such soothing music that D11 makes after a long day
Great vid! I dream of running one of these some day... Thanks for posting!
Well done Phil, that's really impressive, amazing machine,, D11's rule !!!!
Wow... Once you guys walked into the hole, you can really tell it is deep.
Nothing like big Dozers, can watch this all day
That is very impressive how quickly that beast can move a insane amount of material in a very short time 💪🏻⚡️
the power of that machine is impressive. nice size fire pit for the back yard.

crazy how guys can watch this all day and be completely satisfied
That's awesome. I love this stuff, i could watch this all day. Go deeper next time!!
That's amazingly very quick,I love this D 11 👍👏👏👏👏

Good stuff. I love watching. Thanks

Try and do that in western Australia, with the native title act and you would end up with a large fine $$$$$.
Now do deepening cross cuts to make a nice water hole That's once you find some clay to line it or is that the water table at 5mts ?
This is awesome cool😊
Keep digging this is great !
