@letsdig18 Superb Job! Very impressive. I'm a Greenkeeper at a Golf Course in Scotland & have never witnessed contractors with your pride & finishing touches. Great job!
The roller compactor sure looks like it works great. You sure will get some more jobs at the golf course, after that clean professional job. Golf courses like that neat clean work.
It can be seen that you are a master of your trade in everything you do, Chris! The beginning of today's video was so calm and relaxed for me because you unloaded things from the truck and swapped the shovels of the excavator so precisely and completely relaxed, as if you were dealing with fragile things. Most of the time I almost fall asleep while watching. 😴 That's why I like to watch your videos and at your work. ☺️ #takecare
Being a retired operator of equipment myself it is a pleasure to see a person so skilled in his trade and very confident on all pieces of equipment . Awesome job !!
That roller is going to be a be a real time saver and body saver for you on your jobs. Great investment again on your part. It seemed to pay for itself by having to Not rent a thumper to pack that sand and dirt down. Thanks for bring us along on this job.
Now it's maybe time for you Chris to look at Dynaset HVB all implement vibrator. You place it on stick and give you vibration for your compactor but also grading bucket to compact soil/gravel or loose sticky clay from inside it and a lot more usage. Very nifty thing to make your excavator more versatile. I really love it!
that tractor/dump trailer combo works great for these smaller jobs. I'm surprised you don't use this combo more often on similar jobs. great vid as always
Turned out Great Chris !! Looks like your New Compactor worked pretty good on that , that little blade on the front makes it handy too !! Great as always !! Have a Great Evening....On to the next !!
I was a little skeptical about the little compactor but now I totally get it. As many boxes are put in every day I sure hope they gave that to you! That is the perfect attachment for the perfect job. That box will not ever shift out. Of place. Nice to see the compactor at work.
I like the wheel attachment,but I think it would be more efficient,with a vibrating assembly,just a thought. I enjoy watching your jobs! Keep the video’s coming!
Yeah that drum seems to pack it in and rip it back out in the same pass. Technically a multi-purpose tool I guess? Something vibrating with a quick connect that has a valve block in it would help a lot. And be easier to manage because you don't have to line up the trench with the boom in order to move it over the work area.
A tilt rotator is the way to go. I am starting to wonder about tracks or wheels too. I notice that so many places r now going to a wheel hoe and even pull the trailer. It would cut down on your bob cat thing
Could have used a few quarts of water from the golf course sized water truck to get max density on the base, but that was probably good enough for a golf cart road.
Chris, I've been watching for years ,but this shows what a true professional in your trade is and why you are worth the "Big Money". truly an outstanding job from start to finish.
I bet you can use the golf course as a clay borrow pit. Dig some shallow but wide borrow pits, dress up the edges, throw some sand in and turn them into bunkers. Spring comes around and the Members are confused why the course was redesigned. Clay is great stuff.
I am impressed with that Takeuchi tl12 carrying all that weight. We almost bought one but my father passed away. Keep up the great work. If you ever need a operator look me up. Take care.
Nice job Chris, but it was close though! You almost managed to get mud on your jeans! Although, definitely waiting for you to do your impression of Timmay and fall into the pond!
Well Chris I tell you why that little sheep foot sure makes a lot of difference than having to use that whacker packer and saves a lot of time that little tool is going to come in handy for y’all anytime y’all lay a catch basin or put in your overflows for your pond dams but anyway brother another great video and you and John and yawls families stay safe and keep the videos coming man
U and I think and operate very much alike sir it amazes me how I watch this and the order in which we operators get things done can vary but we see things alike ill put it like that.
I don’t know if that trailer used to remove the dirt, bring the sand and the rocks is yours, but I should consider getting one or two if I were you. Could save you a lot of time and work in some cases.
Those dump trailers are really popular with golf courses. The company i worked for years ago had several of them. They worked great on the terrain we were on. They really didn't tear anything up either to be honest
This is proof you're an expert pipe layer, god I love watching your videos. Your videos are much more enjoyable than the other guy's he talks too damn much.
That tractor and dump trailer sure made hauling materials a lot easier. It hauled more than I thought it might be able to. Another job done well. Is this the same golf course you replaced the culverts at a couple of years ago?
Nice job Chris.looks real good.i like the riprap in there .makes everything look neat and tidy. Stay safe man .love yer videos and keep Up the good work. 😀
That tractor and trailer worked well , would something like that work for some of the no access pond dredge jobs instead of shutting back and forth with skid steer?
well the little compacter wheel seems to do what it was made for . The only thing I can see that maybe a problem is that you can't really get the sand or stone or dirt around the catch basin like you can a bucket .
I Redid my crumpled blacktop driveway..didnt want the last 5 feet of it. I ordered the contractor to remove the blacktop and stone, i said i wanted grass to grow there. It was a deep hole and he filled it partially with screenings, leaving me to fill in the last 4 or 5 inches with soil. I forget exactly why we did that, but i leveled out that hole and the surrounding yard with 23 tons of topsoil. The grass grew in, a beautiful batch of tall fescue. Turns out next summer, the drought came and all the grass survived except for the grass on top of the screenings. It turned brown, and left a mark where my old driveway was. I have to assume the grass will not grow well around your new drain box for the same reason..
Also, why did you decide on the compactor wheel vs a vibrating plate tamper for you mini? I've used those on backhoes before and they do an awesome job. But i do understand they're a little more of a pain to hook up to hydraulics.
That little dump trailer was the perfect gadget. Kinda neat set-up. Like your new compactor too. 👍

You looked like a pro on the J D !❤️
Out of all the attachments, that compactor looks boring to use , but does what it was designed for!
? 🤔 it says yanmar?
@@littlefinkle7757 the tractor
The catch basin is deep enough to catch a few stray golf balls. Well done
You did an impressive job!!!!! Great end result! That old pipe was definitely failing
Ya know if you wanted that piece of asphalt to come out in one piece it would have shattered like tempered glass.
Another great job - looking great as well.
2.1K+👍's up thanks again for taking the time for us all to be with you for the great show
Very nice! I’m sold on the Felco compaction wheel very nice attachment

Looks great Chris hope you have a great weekend
Beautiful work, as always! Great job, guys!
That was an impressive root system for such a small shrub.
My exact thought when it was yanked out, lol.
@@george8873 Like wise here
Right!?
Great looking ..ya did awsome it looks good ..and that roller thing does pretty good as well .you have a great night and godbless
looks great. a fine job indeed...
That little compactor is a real back saver on small jobs. Good investment.
The work you do is amazing keep it up.
It’s not about the size of your equipment it’s how you use it #mini life
That new compactor attachment works well 👌 another great job Chris 👍
I got shot gun. Very neat and tidy Chris, neat enough for a golf course.
Woah, I had no idea that the mini's arm could yaw (move left to right) like that. Impressive and handy.
Nice job Chris, but it was close though! You almost managed to get mud on your jeans! Although, definitely waiting for you to do your impression of Timmay and fall into the pond!

After the last 2 days of rain it surely got a good test!!
I really enjoy your videos. Your a great operator.
Now that is an excellent job very well done and I think you’ve made a good investment in the packer 👍👍
Good job, as always. Thanks for the video.
Chris was that the Felco salesman watching you work?? He must of been amazed at work....beautiful job!!!!!! as always..
It was he wanted to come see me work lol
Thanks Chris stay safe...
That worked out pretty good👍👍😀🍁
That compactor is a good piece of kit, save a lot of time with it.
Good to see the new tool put to use bro, looks like it did a great job too.
Good job. I always like working at a golf course
U and I think and operate very much alike sir it amazes me how I watch this and the order in which we operators get things done can vary but we see things alike ill put it like that.
That looks a great job Chris. Well done guys and thanks for a good video.
Old John had that Deere in R for Racing, i mean reverse!!
The man is a worker . Puts on a show , edits ,and uploads it !
Looking real good I love it
Impressive work!
I stand corrected, you new little compactor has a place in your arsenal. I’m man enough to admit it. Another excellent job!
You sure are slick with that mini.
Great job Chris!
WOW, Chris with a shovel in his hands, amazing job
I don’t know if that trailer used to remove the dirt, bring the sand and the rocks is yours, but I should consider getting one or two if I were you. Could save you a lot of time and work in some cases.

Nice debut for the compactor wheel!
That compactor with Chris talent will pay off in spades...Excellent choice and save lots of time too!
This is proof you're an expert pipe layer, god I love watching your videos. Your videos are much more enjoyable than the other guy's he talks too damn much.
Looks great Chris
Wish brandon had more vacation day says huh good work
Lol me too
That tractor and dump trailer sure made hauling materials a lot easier. It hauled more than I thought it might be able to. Another job done well. Is this the same golf course you replaced the culverts at a couple of years ago?
I doubt it is, or there wouldn't have been that small round pipe riser and culvert needing replacing this soon.
a fantastic job buddy 😎👊🏻👍🏻
Makin' paydirt with that new compactor! Good job. John BC, Canada
Like the job you have done .
Hope a couple of rounds were included with that deal; like you ever take any time off. Looking good!
Looks great.
Nice job Chris.looks real good.i like the riprap in there .makes everything look neat and tidy. Stay safe man .love yer videos and keep Up the good work. 😀
Awesome job Chris
Great job Chris looks great👍👍
I wanna see you playing golf with the mini excavator! 😆
Good job Chris.
That works great I bet ,awesome work bud
I knew it was too good to be true. He almost had me when he picked up that shovel.. just moved it tho. Love the vids man!!
I bet the groundskeepers love you. Nice work
That new sheepsfoot attachment is great for compacting around those drains man. Its already paying for itself
do put that rip-rap in by hand, it's so perfect. LOL have a great night!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good work Chris 👏👏👏👍🇬🇧
To break cement / macadam - suggest you try the tamper - small surface area on top not a wide bucket.
This was great to watch! Very detailed oriented and relaxing to watch for me. How long did this take to complete?
The scraper bar is right handy to have on that compactor.
Hey didn't you see the signs "No carts on the greens ". Nice work 👍
Joe
The compactor is definitely a nice Investment I think your going to use it more then you know 😎👍👍
That tractor and trailer worked well , would something like that work for some of the no access pond dredge jobs instead of shutting back and forth with skid steer?
my guess, no. the open tail would make a bigger mess with the mud and just make the job that much harder.
Nice job 😀👏👏👏
well the little compacter wheel seems to do what it was made for . The only thing I can see that maybe a problem is that you can't really get the sand or stone or dirt around the catch basin like you can a bucket .
Another beautimous Yanmar success story. That compacter roller is the ticket!
That compactor wheel is neat. Would that be called a lambsfoot instead of a sheepsfoot? 🙄
Lmaoooo yea you right. Lol.
Due to it being painted black, it has to be a sheep because, 🎶 bah bah black lamb 🎶 doesn’t sound right when you sing it.
Well done!
Greetings from North Wales. Hope your all safe and well!
Greetings from Nova Scotia, Canada 🇨🇦. Hope you are safe and well too!
@@basshead2003 Hi. Being very careful. But so many people seem to don't understand how bad this could end up. Please stay safe !

this would be Chris and John playing in the sandbox as kids...felt like a out take of Honey you shrunk the kids...lol ...nice job guys
You do good work
Also, why did you decide on the compactor wheel vs a vibrating plate tamper for you mini? I've used those on backhoes before and they do an awesome job. But i do understand they're a little more of a pain to hook up to hydraulics.
really have learned a good bit from your videos and they are fun to watch
Very, very nice !
Another awesome job. Would a swivel work on the compactor? Like you have on the bucket.
Great job to perfection as usual well done. I think the new roller looks great will that mean your wacker machine is redundant noow? Peter UK 🇬🇧
Great skill
