Pound for pound best dirt moving man on RUclips no fuss no drama just get the job done and bring us along on the way ? Thanks Chris
I agree 100%
You are correct about the steepness. Bullets will ricochet instead of terminate if the berm isn't vertical enough. Looks good Chris.
On high use ranges 30-34 degrees is around the sweet spot for the slope of the bullet catch/stop bank. It has the best capacity for capturing rounds whilst being able to be maintained. It also offers the best resistance to weathering and scalloping from bullet strike.
Like how smooth the dozer left the ground after dozing it. Left a nice finish for grass to grow.
After watching both the big track loader and the off road rock truck working on your last few jobs, I would say that those investments turned out to be well worth the time, effort and cost that you had to invest to get them operating right for you. That track loader can really push up stumps and the rock truck sure took those big oversize loads of muck real well. I have been following you since early 2009 and I can truthfully say that I am happy to see you doing so well on your own. Albeit, I do miss your side-kick Tim being on the job with you, he really seemed to be a good hardworking assistant.
The range is looking great. Hope we get to see the finished job. Perhaps - - a little shooting from you???
Thanks again Chris for helping us out with the range upgrade!! You've done an awesome job, and some impressive camera work too! Can't wait for the finished product so we can start planting some lead in this dirt! ruclips.net/user/pilotpatriot
Hello you sure did pick the right person for the job. Chris is the best there is to do any dirt work he has the costumers best interests in mind when working for them. He really cares for the out come of each job he does. Thank you Chris for bringing us along
Probably need to dig up the lead. Sell it back to the ammo factory. Still hard to come by.
@@michaelmullins1290 haha, youre not wrong about that!! I'm sure Alot of lead was unearthed when he started pushing!!
Planting freedom seeds😉
@@PilotPatriot that's cool that you have a great safe place to keep tuned up. I need to heat my guns up a little. God Bless.
I spent 15 years on tanks wondering what it looked like underneath Brilliant! Thanks a lot.
Love the timelapse music!
I love these dozers you can see so good with that narrow hood ..... another amazing video and how you make it look so easy lolol
Nice looking job, even with the wet soil,. Thanks for the ride along.
Like it when you give us the full load! If we want to jump ahead, we can do that. Love having the complete job presented. You do well with figuring out camera placement. Many thanks for your extra effort and for taking us along.
Absolutely awesome work Chris,
Not only are you neat and meticulous, you have the best looking machines. I know nothing about those machines or the construction business (retired nurse) but your videos are the first ones I watch out of the many that I follow.
Really interesting to see this one, also the novel sub-dozer camera shots. 😃Variety like this makes it easier to understand what each machine can and can not do. It's always nice to learn about new stuff like this.😉 Thanks for sharing. 😀Be well Chris.😊
Off to a good start there bro just with what you have done so far. Safe travels
Nice video as always Chris. This one was especially enjoyable i thought with all the outside footage being able to watch the machine work. It reminded me of being a young kid when I’d ride my bike along side job sites and watch the machines work. Excited to see this project finished, shaping up nicely so far.
Chris, you never cease to amaze me with your video. Interesting underside view of the dozer. You ought to teach videography classes at your local college. Thanks for sharing this insightful video presentation. Wishing you and your family a blessed week. Peace brother
The Ol' D39PX have been doing quite well for ya Chris !! Remember when ya first got it talking about the "cage' on it, I believe I dig the cage on it !! Really nice dozer....Well, all you machines are nice, because you keep them nice, and up to par....Well, Great as always Man !! Have a Great Evening Chris !! And, On too the Next... or back to finish this one...lololol...
The time lapses is great, we can really see the progress you make, great job!
Another great job Chris it looks great always enjoy watching your videos 🇺🇲
You should look into auction for old school D 155 a or D5. Something mid range.Old school D155 a good machine!!
Glad to see projects like this . The country needs more of them !Stay safe and sane ppls!
It’s amazing how smooth the range ground looks. Your a talented man.
Good afternoon from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great day!
Real enjoyed the time laps.get to see more from beginning to the end
That's some really different job site!
Early Sunday video 😃, smashing the job as per usual Chris, well done on a good job 👍🏻
@@lomaii2847 REPORTED 👊👊 👊👊
Cool shot of dozer doing it's work from the under undercarriage. Have a great day.
Range is going to look great when you are done. The original range was a little sad and questionable in my mind. Would love to have a range on our retirement property. I shoot competitively and would love to have at least 300 yards, 500 would be better for practice and load development. But sadly I would be lucky to get 100 yards. Anything would be better than having to lug all my equipment to the club to shoot.
Thanks for sharing Chris. You do amazing work.
I always enjoy your dozer work. I hope you get some new subscribers. I've told several people this week about the channel.
This is a great video.
Komatsu looks like you did some detail cleaning. It has worked well for you since bringing it down from Pennsylvania.
A lot of dirt to move but it’s looking good Chris! Thanks for sharing brother, stay safe and healthy!👌🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸
I like that you are now using timelapse this way we get to see you doing more work keep it up
Mate you don’t need a transit to do grade, your eyes are the transit! keep up the great work Criss
Hi from uk chris👋 hope everything and all ok 👍man of of many talents not too much magic on this 1 but still in "" range "" of the wand pmsl 😉😂😂 thanks for your time👍 and could watch you stack nd grade all day especially on time lapse "MINT""
You are "fearless" when it comes to putting the camera by the "belly pan". :):)
Nice Sunday evening vid to watch before the Olympics coverage begins.
One more channel to watch and I'm done for today.
I like to save Chris's vids for one of the last of the day ones on weekends.
Slot dozing - learned something new today.
Love the videos sir
Smooth operator
Great video 👍👍
The uphill cut on the berm is impressive. Much bigger cut than I expected.
Like the belly pan view it is cool seeing different views great job as always
Pretty cool camera shot from the under side... Site looks great...!
Nothing like a bit of dozer work. Looking forward to the finished product. Take care & cheers 🐨🦘🥰
You do really nice work
Genius shot from under the carriage! Funny how the tracks on the inside are so clean...
Good job
Looking good 👍 👌 😎
Ahhhhhh, nice dry dirt and no need for a concrete pump!!🤣😉
I was a marksman in the army back in the 70s, practice was essentially important at the range in all weathers and distance of up to 600 metres, I miss those amazing time's, ☺
Great video as always,your in your element.at least no mud.customer should be very happy.👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎
Chris does great work! We were glad to have him!
@@PilotPatriot hello I just subscribed to your website and it looks very interesting I can't wait to start watching
Raise the “pond dam” and don’t worry about mud. 👌👌👌👌👌
I'm loving the nc weather. Been visiting my mom, she's going threw chemo and radiation. About an hour from this job. She's got a small pond that could possibly use some work in the future. A trailer to remove and a couple small buildings.
Love the videos by the way
Chris thanks for sharing! Kevin
Dry dirt for a change. 🙂
Drainage would be a good idea for them especially with us getting crazy rain totals from a single thunderstorm on the east coast
There's a 6in drain pipe in the bottom left corner that carries most of the water out, everything in this field pretty much slopes that direction!
@@PilotPatriot awesome, I was just thinking ahead but I'm sure you already knew this with the crazy rain during growing seasons or hurricanes
What are you doing playing in that dry dirt?? Enjoyed the video with the dozer. Always a favorite!!
Very impressive 👍👍👍👍
The belly pan cam was a nice touch.
I used my Kubota L4060 Tractor to build a Gun range with great success. Probably better than a Bulldozer could - only due to the mobility of a tractor and the ability to raise dirt up high and dump it in big piles. Though having a Kubota KX080, my little dream excavator, would be superior to anything else when it comes to building range berms.
Looks good
Loved the belly shot. I guess Betty would have been too heavy for this job but would like to see her move dirt like that. Another job lookin good !
Great under shots Chris,, just wondering what Andrew Camarata will think of when he views this.. Have a good week..
GOOD ONE
That looks 👀 like some of that good N.Carolina sweet Potato 🥔 dirt. !
12:20 under the dozer camera was novel, never seen that perspective before.
IKR, it was pretty awesome 👌 👍
OMG! Naked Dozer belly!!! I did not need to see this! 😉 BUT it was interesting to see that way you're working the blade
Love the belly cam
The undercarriage view was very cool.
Dug the near ground level tracking, pretty cool.
I’m interested in the topsoil you have there . Looks almost red ! Ours is very black
Chris , the NRA came out to our club and did a inspection. And guess what, our berms didn't fit the bill. But he talked to the saftey officer and we got it corrected. 👍
Looks like a nice place to shoot if I only had a pew pew
good video
Man, half a million subs!
I hope it doesn't get drainage issues if you lower it inside the range
Right rear roller doesn't roll all the time or is it just me, under carriage view.
Hope you get Betty fixed and not give up on her, and would like to see your stickers on your other equipment so we could tell yours from Johns
Dawns here ☀️
You need Charlie to come along with that little pistol he carries to try out the range.
Hey Chris I w of your rollers on the left side in the undercarriage shot is goin bad, it isn't spinning as good, it's locking up off an on, just letting you know, thanks for sharing awesome content all the time, 💪🇺🇸
Better check the rear on right as well…
number four on the left
they dont always turn of theres not enough pressure from the track pushing up on it
@@letsdig18 yeah that's a valid point, thanks for the reply, was just making sure bud, keep up the awesome work
OMG Chris!! your not diggin a pond LOL
As usual my brother, ANOTHER job well done. Really liked the undercarriage shots. That really helps to put other things into perspective. 🙏👍👊
I love that underbelly video! Am I correct that it shows you making fine adjustments (up and down) to blade height, or is it just the way the ground level is? I have never dozed. I have cut and made mining roads with cat 988, 980 and 960 as well as smaller projects with bobcat. God I miss moving dirt and rock! Muscle memory is a funny thing realized in watching your videos. After 12 years moving dirt and aggregate, and now over that driving truck. When you are pushing berm back I can still feel it in the seat of my pants in what the machine wants, especially when being a little to aggressive and having to back up, then next cut a little less aggressive.
Your always making adjustments, he's just very good, but yes, he's constantly adjusting even slightly on flat ground
that was interesting view from under the dozer. So when are you going to mount the camera on the front of the blade bottom, show us what it looks like up close as you push dirt?
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼
know you'll be back lead prospecting every year or so
Lets hope Betty is not easily jealous of the little one, I bet she would have loved to be on this job 🤣
Looks the rain follows you.
Looks like the rain follows you.
I wonder if your putting undue stress on the Machine by not using the full blade and making two passes over the burn but using half the blade to move the berm so you're putting more stress on the left side of the machine by not spreading the stress out amongst both sides of the machine
@11:37 This is a Cool view
Looks like that backstop could use a French drain if they are going to use targets, the foot of the backstop will probably be a muddy mess most of the time.
We have a drainage pipe in place on the bottom left side of the berm. It was a muddy mess before that was installed!
There's a drain pipe in the bottom left corner that carries out most of the water!! Chris has done an awesome job out here!
Under tractor camera view, we know ur just showing off how clean you keep your equipment ...lol
Add this to the list…….
Looks like you are building a pond. How are you going to keep it from filling with water?
Looked like a hump there before he started.
Great to see the undercarriage and the time lapse of the dozer at work. Neat job.
I suppose it’s just the camera doing something with the audio, but that engine sounds like it has a bit of a clatter when you transition from full load pushing to freewheeling back off the pile. Just what it sounds like to me.
