The aerial view, I thought I was watching Bob the Builder with my kids again. 😊😊😊
Exactly! 😊
Equipment square dancing I have not seen that in years👍👍👍awesome job 👏
USED TO BUILD COMMERCIAL GRAINS BINS ALL OVER THE MIDWEST. NEVER REALLY CONSIDERED WHAT GROUND WORK HAD TO BE DONE PRIOR.. AS LONG AS THE CONCRETE SLAB WAS DRY WE WERE RAISING STEEL 😊.. GOOD ON YA MATE KEEP IT UP..
It's the Larson Merry-Go-Round !
The time-lapse footage with all the equipment was epic, well done team!!
Brody will be having a conniption fit looking at all the muddy equipment.
Love it when you guys share the ups and the downs. The struggle-bus drives all week and in the weekends! :D
The interchange between Dougo and Chet @8:00 shows the trust between two people who have worked together for years… on the struggle bus…
Hey fellas when you compacting granulars some times the vibration pulls water out from bellow and brings it to the surface
It's going to, just think about what is actually happening. :)
Look the Shriners driving around in circles!!
Good progress in the face of poor weather. It will be interesting to see the new grain bin go in over the next while. Thanks for making it so interesting.
When the going gets tough.the tough get going.🇨🇦😊
Chet, watch what you wish for. You may just get it.
As a guy who’s farmed in a near desert don’t
Thanks for another great video Chet and everyone!!!!!
It was interesting and informative and enjoyable for sure to watch!!!!!
The bin project. Wow. What a project this has been. You had lots of equipment in that hole all at once. And then you all were fighting the moisture problem. Glad you got your drainage pipe put down and pulling the water off the bin floor, so to speak. Now that you have the gravel in there and it packed good, it looks pretty darn good. Lots of hard work there by all of you!!!!!!
Nice work everyone!!!!!!!!
Thanks for everything Chet and crew.
The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
That is what you call the Magic Roundabout! That was a wonderful piece of choreography, with all those m/c's going round and round and nery a bump between them. 11/10 for effort you guys. Excellent days work all round. Thanks from UK.
Your videos are like a window into your world, love the view!
The camera view looking down from the grain bin was amazing. Like you Chet I love to watch construction going on, especially heavy equipment. Yet another awesome video.
Always enjoy watching your videos, Chet. Thanks for sharing. Be Safe. Stay well. Victor
Larson Farms has got it going on!!! The ABSOLUTE BEST AT ANYTHING THEY DO!!!❤❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
It will pack without running viberator. Just use less of a lift. Once you get 2 or 3 feet above the water, you'll be fine.
Love the video of 3 machines going in circle. I instantly thougnt they were playing ring around the rosey... all fall down. Y'all definitely got the struggle bus in this episode.
DOUGO , YOU ARE A LEGEND !! 👍🇦🇺🇺🇸
Great work guys!!! Jean will appreciate you going home to mow the grass I'm sure.
The Larson merry-go-round in full swing 😂
As big a project as this is, Dougo I’m not surprised you haven’t stroked out yet, the end result will be worth it
Now that was fun to watch! All that work in such a small circle. You've accomplished a great deal!
Unbelievable project, I could not imagine the progress you guys have done so far.
Chet, if you were farming in sand like i did in central Wisconsin you would have to add employees and have millions in pivots and irrigation.
We worked all day farming and then slept in the pickups so we could move water winches every 3 or 4 hours all night long.
We use to farm almost 6k acres of cukes, for pickles and multiple kinds of peppers.
Peppers started in green houses.
Plus yellow dent corn, green beans, alfalfa and even clover, rye and oats sometimes.
You strugle with the wet, but i think you still have it better.
good progress - hope it holds up with the mix of wet and rock/fill - loved the special musical around 16:30 whoever did that editing :)
Am amazed at all your group does. Looks like a ring around the rosy game of machines.
Hats off to you all Totally cool!!
Duggo is a smooth operator 😮
To a non operator he would look smooth but to a seasoned professional he doesn’t.
@@gregjames5070 big deal huh
@@gregjames5070 yeah , yeah he does
Thanks Chet, awesome video! Enjoyed the aerial video!
Look into Geotextile fabric to put on the clay before you put the sand in. It gives structure to sand and it will not allow the sand to sink into the fine clay particles
YOU GUYS KNOW HOW TO GET THING DONE. SUPER JOB BUY ALL THANKS FOR TAKING US ALONG WE LOVE IT
Chet Dougo Eric Broodie Randy that was fantastic you all enjoyed it thank you all great crew very different farm work
Lots of work, but I bet the foundations won't fall apart like Cole's
What a team you are very. Very fortunate to have the crew and family both the same thing In your case god bless all mom too stay safe in the pit and the fields
Like a Circus of clown cars stuck in a round about there for a few minutes!
Awesome video, can imagine the “chatter” on the radio 😂🤪
Awesome video Chet and Larson Farms!! I loved it!
Looked like the crazy eights at the local race track. 😂
Your humble humility is growth’s way of showing you!
Nice job and efforts! This will only make you and your crew better going forward!👍
Building a MINNCAR track, all left turns.
Payloader coming up on the inside and passes the Bobcat, and the Box-scraper squeaks by! Early pitting by the payloader puts him down a lap.
Hey guys, retired road builder/operating engineer. If the building pad doesn't work out, starts spewing water it should be undercut, Geo tech fabric for stabilization, at least 2' of 1x3" CC or Limestone (best), then fines to lock it all together for building base. DO NOT use the vibratory on the sheep foot roller. Static roll only to get compaction/density at first. Gradually start using vibratory after you have about 1' of fines covering the 1x3". Don't go crazy with it though and you'll get your density/compaction. Switch to a smooth drum roller to finish roll if ones available.
You can also hire a density guy if desired. They'll pound a cone, then work with yuh on site density testing. Good luck.
Great channel guys!
More time lapse of pit and machines in motion. Can be awhile video by itself!!! Love the vids. Thanks!! 🍻😎🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I thought you guys were going to have a demolition derby 😅. Good team work. 😊
Looks like Brody is going to have his hands full
Chet... I have to speak up for doggo cuz us old guys have to stick together. If things aren't good in the field there's no use to build a new grain bin LOL
Looking good Larson Farms . Another great video sir's .
You gotta love the optomizm of farmers.Ok it's a bad spring planting.May not make a yield.Wont know till fall.What should we do next? Build another bin....lol
This was likely planned years ago.
Fyi the worst thing you can is vibrated over wet ground because you're pushing the water to the top which is going to cause it to pump stag roll it with no vibrator
Bloody brilliant video. 😊🤪
Ring around the grain bins ring around the grain bins gravel gravel all packed down😂😂❤
Given you knew the water table was high, this project needed a good dewatering system using wellpoints.
A lot of work done for sure….amazed at all the instructions given on this chat. I keep thinking y’all have been here and done this before and all is holding up just fine. I’m amazed there were no collisions, but everyone there has been operating equipment since childhood im sure.
You all going round and round in that hole bought back to mind a 'working' display that they had in the Science Museum in London when I was a child which had model tractors going round 'preparing the ground' on the farm, ploughing, tilling & rolling. :O
Also when it is that wet you only need to roll it. Because the moisture content is high therefore when you roll it it will compact
For soft spots while still close to the bottom of the hole use geotextile fabric then 18" of gravel then repeat. If you still have a soft spot use a piece of the fabric much larger than the wet spot and some large rock, something like one man rip-rap mixed with Clay and smaller gravel over the fabric.
Always informational Chet and Dougo!! Keep it up!
Randy adjusting the laser. 😂
Oh that brings back memories I use to build the wind towers bases but we had to back fill with clay those were the days I think I did like 600 bases by Worthington Minnesota and south into Iowa
Your video was very satisfying as what you are doing is better to see than what is happening in the country. Good job.
It is amazing to watch you all work as a team to get to your end goal.
Loved the aerial shot with 5 pieces in the hole.
CHET AN EXCELLENT VIDEO.👍🇦🇺🇺🇸👍
That was one awesome video Chet watching you Dougo and the guys is always pretty amazing no matter what challenges you're faced with the don't seem to phase you You have the most upbeat attitude get on with the project and get it done Their is no channel on you tube that could compare to Larson Farms simple the Best GOD BLESS YOU ALL
Best wishes from Ireland 🇨🇮
That reminded me of the new traffic circle (aka roundabout) near me when it first opened, chaotic.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.
lovin more of those external video segments ....that'll get ya to a million subs 🤙😎🤙
Welcome to the business of moving dirt. Dealing with water in a excavation is almost an art form. lol Not as easy as it looks. Just like farming. That being said, you guys did a fine job.
LOOKS LIKE FUN SEE YOU NEXT TIME
Chet run the roller with out the vibration on for the first 4 to 5 feet of fill with the stuff you’re using for fill is already at about 80% compaction as long as there’s water coming in that roller vibration will bring the water up you gotta get the water sealed off
This video was filmed like 3 weeks ago
Buddy doesn’t matter how long ago it was filmed. Water is water
Pro tip, you only need to use purple primer on sanitary lines for inspection. For drainage, you can use clear primer. Way cleaner
That sped up drone sht of everyone in the hole was hilarious.
Good work gentleman!
For a bunch of farmers..Awesome!!
Looking very good nice job
Round and round they go and where and when they stop... NO BODY knows! Cool video guys! Thanks! 😊
Awesome video Chet. It looked like a circle circus 😅. All that equipment going round and round. It really was pretty cool. Good job guys!👍❤️
Y’all are Moving Stars, in this video !! H.
You should give Ferguson a call next time you have to run some pvc. They are a plumbing supply house with quite a few locations in mn. They might be able to get you some better prices than Menards, especially on the 6”+ fittings and pipe
Looked like a crazy roundabout. Expensive pipe fittings. Nice job.
Had to LOL at all the equipment you had in there. Looked like fun.😀
That was fun to watch! Thanks!
Amazing video Chet keep on making those videos
You don’t want to farm in a desert come to Castro country where it don’t rain much and run out of ground water when you farm here you will crawl back to Minnesota where it is muddy. 😂😂
Nice merry go round y’all have.
Loved the drone view of all the equipment running in circles. Reminded me of the main ring of a circus- complete with jugglers and clowns. LOL.
That was a good Timelapse
nice ride along
If you got water issues in your subgrade. Subcut and seal back off with either clay or a thick lift of gravel and no vibe. Static roll can be as effective, it just takes a bit longer.
Your state is like mine. It is a water recharge area. Can't do much, but put a bandaid on the land. I enjoy the videos and knowledge that I take away
When you dig down to solid clay you need to get stone in before the water can turn it to mud
Love watching a team work on new projects together.
That circus in the hole looked like everyone who showed up to work on the struggle bus.
I learned from watching dirt perfect that your dirt is pumping, that’s what it’s called. Those spots mean that you have non clay dirt underneath your clay, recommend to dig down till it’s gone and fill it back in with clay! It won’t ever actually dry up
3 or 4” trash pump would work wonders.
Great vidio
Round and round and round she goes where she stops only Duggo knows..
Y'all are doing a pretty good job for farmers, oh wait, I farm to. We'll I also am an expert heavy equipment operator who specialize in earthen dams.
Make sure the packer is the last thing in the hole. Otherwise rain will turn the dirt into mud.
Yes back drag no holes and get off and stay off till it drys a few
