    That is the thing I have always like about youtube, out of the millions of channels, I was able to find like minded people that I believe to be simple, good, honest people. It is always a pleasure watching you and Tim O'Bryant. been following both of you for 7-8 years now, can't even remember anymore. Tim didn't have to come help you but he did. And the two of you talking about Logger Wade got me to watching him, now all his neighbors are doing videos and I like them too. Decent people, aint pushing nothing on everyone, just here enjoy my little project for a few minutes.
    Thanks for the videos, Chris.

    Re posted from yesterday. Hi Chris. Due to the volume of messages you get I 'm not sure if you'll get to read this one but, I would like to let you know that I've been following your channel for years and really enjoy following your amazing projects with great interest. I guess like a lot of viewers I find your videos very entertaining, informative and relaxing. I also wanted to let you know that a late Christmas present turned up yesterday which was posted back on Nov last year from my lovely Daughter in-law. She is Canadian and sent me one of your t-shirts which I was thrilled to receive. Therefore this is a very well travelled t-shirt which started it's journey in the USA, you posted it to Canada and Kirsty posted it to me in England. I'd be interested to hear from all the viewers if you ordered or like me received one as a present, how far did it travel to get to you? BTW, thanks to you, I also follow Geoff's channel (Bealy Good) and enjoy watching when you two come together on projects. All the best from Dave in Kent, England

    Hi Chris, writing to you from Australia, we (husband and I) love watching your videos. You sure do know what you are doing, very professional, very neat and obviously an expert on ‘pond-dams’. Re pond-dams, these are fascinating to us, no such term (as far as we know) in Australia. We have dams, or tanks, which are generally water storage on rural properties, sometimes used for swimming on a very hot day, and sometimes containing yabbies! Then we have ponds, which are normally small, as in fishpond or lily pond! Larger bodies of man made water containments might be called lakes here. The idea of having the enormous pond-dams that you create is kind of mind boggling. Cheers from us, and keep on digging.

    Hey Chris,
    Dang, I love watching that 550 eat dirt! It's good to see when RUclipsrs collaborate and help each other out. I used to be subscribed to Tim's channel, but for some reason, I haven't watched a CT3 video in a couple of years. Anyone who's willing to come help another RUclipsr out is worth a subscription to his channel. You and Tim should get allot of work done in the next few days. You all stay safe out there.

I found it hard to visualize it and after you first started moving dirt it was still hard to get a picture of what it would look like when finished. But then you get to a certain point in the project and just by watching your video the picture that you where describing when you first started comes into view and we can visualize what the pond will look like. You sir are amazing with your ability to look at a job and get a mental picture of what needs to be done, and also what it should look like when the project is completed. You definitely can see in your videos that you are a person that truest love the work that you do. Thanks for the amazing videos of the excellent projects that you get to work on.

    You definitely could get quite an assembly line of machines working, the property owner with his 220 loading the haul truck, ethan or robert driving, tim on dozer and roller and you on the 550. It would be very impressive.

    I was just thinking how many labor hours this project would take to do manually! A hundred people 30 years? Hundreds of shovels, months of weather delays. CAPITAL EQUIPMENT is such a game changer!

    Boy Howdy! What a job! The 550E sure is the tool for the job. @36:37 when you turn your head and looked at me with that accusing eye, the thought, "I didn't fart!" jumped into my head... then I about soiled myself laughing, my wife looked over my shoulder at what I was watching. "Is Chris that funny?" she asked. So I showed her. I'm doing a small load of laundry now. LMAO

    Thanks for this video Chris, I thought Robert was your Dozer man and was surprised to see Cotton top. I'm glad he showed up to help.

    Seeing how much dirt you had to move to build this dam, I understand why Big Girl was a necessity. Thanks to Volvo for providing Big Girl for this series of videos. The Komatsu dozer does a pretty good job keeping up with Big Girl though.

    Any good follower of Letsdig18 knows who Cotontop3 is. Another man of many talents. We knew you were right Chris. Sometimes you have to stack the deck with good crew. I still can't get over that bucket size.. 9-11 tons per bucket... Wow.

    Glad you have nice dry dirt to work with. I can barely even walk across my yard in North Alabama during the Winter. It is amazing to watch that mega machine work. Nice to see my Mississippi neighbor on your channel !!!!!!! Safe travels to and fro Tim

    I have been watching you for a long time Chris and it is amazing how much dirt you can move with that new excavator compared to the other excavator you have been using to build dams. Looking good.

    In my 35 year plus career as Operator , probably the best compactor was Wagner compactor, its even better then a Catapillar compactor Because it had offset wheels, it compact the hole with of Compactor, , this why you see Chris with a full drum with Compactor. Also Wagner has lots power , was excellent for pushing and Leveling materials.

    I was just watching in awe. Your video perspectives really show off the 550E. Watch Gold Rush and they don't have the shots that you have. You need to just keep the 550E.

    Now that's digging.👍 I gave up trying to work out the weight about half way through, you'd gone through somewhere like 3000-3500 tons by then I suspect.🤔 Probably double that and then some by the end of this video.🤨 Simply amazing. 😀Looking forward to the next one. 🙂Thanks for it all. Be well.😉
