Restoring A Heavily Eroded Pond Dam To Perfection!!

We cleaned this pond out a year ago and it was time to clean the mess up on the back side of the dam. The backside was eroded really bad so I utilized the dirt we pushed out to make it look purdy!

It was good to see the finishing work on that particular pond . Thanks for taking the video and posting it. Its always crazy to see mud become workable material. Take care and see you on the next one. 👍🙂

Thanks Sam! It takes a while but it eventually dries out enough.

Ever stop to figure how many yards of soil you move around to grade off a project like that, I would be surprised by it myself, the 850 does a really nice job for you. Thanks for the video, enjoyed watching.

[@Dirtdaddy953]

Thanks Terry! It would be a lot!

Got the ole pond dam slicked up nice! Im working on a pond dam myself at the moment. leveling and widening and spillway repair. All the old farm ponds in my area almost always sink a foot or more in the center. I always build mine higher in the middle for that reason. Do you see that in your neck of the woods much? Nice 850H video Sir.

[@Dirtdaddy953]

Hey Dave! No, we don’t see that due to the material we use to build them. Once the clay is in and compacted it really doesn’t move.

Is there such a thing as a smooth riding bulldozer? If not then perhaps that's why they call them BULLdozers,

[@Dirtdaddy953]

lol! This one has always been rough riding! It’ll beat ya to death! Thanks Jeff!

Looks really good. My neighbor had a pond dug last fall and they are just now getting the dredge material leveled out around the pond. If finally dried out enough to work with. Tx for sharing my friend.
