    Thank you so much for taking my mind off my problems. My ex husband and I use to own and work in timber .so watching you take down and clear timber take me back to some very good years .

    Chris you're so cool and delightfully honest. I would not have ever noticed the "low resolution" had you not mentioned it. I would have chucked it up to the internet slowing and or mild buffering. Thank you for being who you are. I can say this without hesitation, anyone who hires you for a job should know they've got a gem of a professional operator-contractor. Thanks again for the awesome videos. I start my day with them as I prepare for the days work, it's a way of meditation and relaxation.

    Chris you have nothing to be apologizing for in any of your videos they are all well done and I know it takes a lot of effort to turn these videos out so whoever puts these together for you I for one of hundreds of thousands do appreciate them, please keep them coming and we'll keep watching...

    It’s finally easy to see just how big this job is looking at the equipment from the other end of the property and how tiny it is - seeing the haul truck look like a Matchbox puts it into perspective.
    Even having watched Mr. Bealy’s drone shots don’t do it justice. 😧

    Can really see the topography of the land now the trees are cleared and see why you're putting the pond in that location. Was really difficult to see when all the trees were still there. It's basically a pond waiting to happen, just add a dam, lol.

    @wendymorrison5803 2 года назад +2

    The farm is going to look very good after your work. With a pond, lovely. Watching you work over those stumps, I would wish you a trommel to shake the dirt out. The noise would be horrible, but the results would be great.

  • @terryrogers1025
    @terryrogers1025 2 года назад +2

    May be hot on the D6, but it is the highlight of the video for me to be able to see and listen to it run. You are right in the 6 has it hands down on the rake, even though it’s probably like riding a sauna bath right now. Thanks for the ride along.

  • @thatdave86

    Chris can't wait until you start barning love how big it gets. I also can't wait to see the pond fished. Be safe and prayers for your family and tell Winston I said hello. You need to do a video on him, so we can see how big he's gotten

  • @neilemsley967
    @neilemsley967 2 года назад

    Big job at the BG farm Chris. Just and observation… when I’ve previously stumped, I’ve dropped the dug up stump on other stumps still in the ground, which creates a harder mass to shake of the earth and slightly loosens the stump in the ground. Hope this helps 👍🏻 just keep digging 👏

    Good to see the D6 back in action. That is a tool which is hard to beat. This project is one of the largest I have seen Chris get involved with, and I think that he gets a bit bored sometimes. But, at least he isn't slinging mud day in and day out.

    Next up, the Chris's version of the burning man extravaganza and on to building that huge pond.
    Should keep him busy till late fall or beyond.
    Thanks for the entertainment on my way to a VA appointment Chris.

    Fantastic job Chris! I sound like broken record, but your a, "Man with a Plan" and you follow through with it. Don't kid yourself, your narration during the video's is a very important part of your great video's. Man, just when I'm thinking, "what the heck?", you pause and start explaining what's happening in your plan.
    Thank you again for a great video. Still setting the bar for others to try and reach.

    You do such fine work. Did you tell Kevin how you wanted the brush & stumps piled or is there some obscure brush burning school y'all went to?🤣Hope the rains come in when you want them and can burn soon. Looking forward to that. Thanks, Chris.

  • @casey6968
    @casey6968 2 года назад +2

    I’m curious, why dig the stumps out of the pond area? Customer preference, or is there a reason for it? I’ll be creating a pond on my land soon and was thinking of leaving any stumps that would be deeper in the water and out of sight. Love the videos, btw. Watching you operate and listening to your explanation has helped me a lot. Much appreciated!

    • @tomrogers9467
      @tomrogers9467 2 года назад

      I also wondered that. Perhaps because it made clearing the brush and debris from the area easier? Still didn’t make sense to put all that time into a pond bottom. But it’s not my bill to pay either!

  • @mischef18
    @mischef18 2 года назад

    Good to be able to put someone in ya digger that knows what they are doing bro. Apart from the burn piles it is all looking good too. No dust here it's been raining 16 hours almost non stop. Safe travels

  • @charlesscott4513
    @charlesscott4513 2 года назад

  • @rogerofrhodri
    @rogerofrhodri 2 года назад +1

    Have you tried dropping a stump onto a stump to loosen the dirt,it might give it more of a 'thump' than the soft ground.

  • @prinzeugenvansovoyen732
    @prinzeugenvansovoyen732 2 года назад +1

    You could have the root rake modified, a upper guard so stuff can't topple the blade so easy maybe make the rake wider than the blade by 3 ft on each side, it got ample pushing power or add a stump Splitter point to make it easier to pull stumps like the site prep stumper Crews on larger operations have
