Gotta love all of the "experts" dispensing their 'hard-earned ' knowledge. I take these videos for what they are - entertainment - because you aren't teaching the viewer anything, simply showing what you're doing. Good job getting the backhoe running, it will sound a lot better after you take the time for a tune up and possibly a full carb rebuild. Thanks for sharing this with us and Happy Holidays to you and yours.
@@Niticess point well taken. For a moment there, I actually thought that I knew what I was talking about.... I forgot that it wasn't a gas engine. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Just a reminder Mike but the steel frame under those mobile homes is junior-I. If not bent or twisted it is more than capable of supplying you with a stout goose neck trailer for trash and light equipment if you are a fabricator/welder. I hauled many loads of scrap steel for my father-in-law in the early eighties with a four axle forty foot goose neck he built. It takes gussets and cross braces but that long trailer frame in the video welded together end to end like that would have provided many cross pieces. While the doughnut axles aren't popular they are arched however and should be fine for local projects and last for years. Shortening them up properly is not hard to do. It's just a thought... Thank you for the videos.
@@arnoldromppai5395 That forty foot wet noodle hauled 15,000 pounds like it wasn't there. The key was spreading the weight of the load out the full length. He welded cross pieces 7'6" long cross-bed every 4' and the two main stringers were 12" apart center to center with short pieces welded in between box beam style. Other steel was used as well for goose neck reinforcing, gussets and frame stiffeners. The deck was inch and a quarter tongue and groove bought at Bob's Auction in Rolling Hills. We even hauled his old backhoe around on it over the four axles setting on half inch plate with no problem. And if you are wondering, the trailer was inspected and licensed by the State of California in Fontana but you're free to spend however much you want for a new "manufactured" trailer. The thing is, not everyone has to do that. That old trailer was heavy as hell even empty. Especially pulling it with a 1978 dodge dually 440 4-bbl gasser with an automatic transmission which actually worked pretty well once you got her wound up. The damned thing loaded could only get between 4 and 6 miles a gallon southern Ca. to south central Idaho. Now those were the days!
@@ramjet7470 well you said it all, and stop and think about all ya did,, haaaa if you weld enough steel in to anything it will work, but use that steel to build something good, not some thing all patched to gather, i am a welder an mfg by trade for 50 years and know these mobile home frames, been in the custom built trailer game far to long,, what the truck have to do with any of it.. lol
@@arnoldromppai5395 Look slick, you're the one who said it was wet noodle steel not me. The guy that welded it was a master pipe fitter and welder that could weld anything. While you were out chasing your first piece of teenage tail he was supervising construction of the San Onofre nuke plant so don't get too high on your own horse big guy. There are a lot of guys and gals out there who are not relegated to investing $30,000 into a trailer only for it to dump 20% of it's value when they drive it off of your lot. I'm 65 and I have bought and paid for "manufactured" car haulers. lo-boys, goose necks and flat beds so don't go getting your panties all tied up in knots. It's Christmas time 'ya know.
Good movie 7/10 great character arc! Starts out a little slow and Id like to see more of the lady but the main villain was very convincing! In the end I found myself rooting against the mobile home. I laughed, I cried, I would watch again. Looking forward to the the next one!
I liked it, i liked the wife helping you write it. It kinda made me feel like you and the family are starting to realize this youtube thing might make you a nice little deal and that was your way of telling us you want to take us along for the ride.....kinda goofy i guess but thats what i was thinking.
@@powerram92 so if you press forward the bucket goes down if you move the control a little past that point you will feel a another position in the valve and the loader bucket will move freely.
I used my front end loader go make a 10 to 12 ft fire break around my large burn piles and then used it to keep pushing everything into smaller and smaller pile as bnb it burnt out. Also used the loaded to make sure the fire did not get out of the safety zone. Ha 4 40x20 piles that took several days to burn out. Good luck on future burns.
Its hard to say on cost. Its rent property we bought and are cleaning up. I would charge at least $3 per square foot if i was doing if for someone. The way i did it probably 4 days. I would not separate wood if i had to do it again. i would just haul it all to the dump and separate only wire and steel and not separate the siding I only made 80 on siding totally not worth the time.. If i did it again 2 days. Invest in a good respirator is the biggest tip i can give you..
you dont demo them things 2 gallons of fuel oil and its gone in 10 min.. the idea to demo is fold and smash everything into it self, not all over the ground, your going to have nore flat tires you keep doing it like that, use the hoe and smash it all into the center, when you have a machine there is no handd work except a little hand raking at the end as a finish clean up very little
the backhoe or the mobile home. the backhoe i have around $4000-4500 in with repairs and fluids and the mobile home came with a property I recently bought.
hi mike you need to get a small go for the I H I ,, MAKE OR the KOBOTA NOT BOBCAT THE COMPUTERS GIVE TROUBLE digger do you watch ANDREW CARRMATAS CHANEL, ALSO A trailer

i think i am going to build a bridge with the frame. although a trailer would be nice too.
the frames on these things are just scrap formed tin, nothing to them, the building is what stiffens it up, its like a wet noodle

Great to see the old girl earning her keep Mike and it looks like she works great after all your hard work, nice job keep em coming.
Find a abandoned backhoe and put it to good use that is very smart good job
Good movie 7/10 great character arc! Starts out a little slow and Id like to see more of the lady but the main villain was very convincing! In the end I found myself rooting against the mobile home. I laughed, I cried, I would watch again. Looking forward to the the next one!
you recover unit then use it in job
men amazing👍👍👍
I subscribed just because of the original way of asking by the paint !
i wondered how people would receive that part
@@mikekisch5563 pretty good for old casey there tough like kubotas

...good demo. great vid..HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS...
Merry Christmas too you too
Well that went great.. was a bit concerned that you were spraying gas on the fire for a second. anyway looks great. thanks for the share..
good looking out. that would not have ended well if it was gas. it was old diesel i have been using to wash parts.
Your videos are so real I can't stop watching.i am retired but I have shit to do.thanks.
same here but not retired
Did you save that metal filing cabinet? Those things are great for parts storage
no i scrapped them.
How come you don't keep the boom locked when not in use?
I was having problems operating the lock correctly. Its kind of a odd locking system. I did a video of the procedure once I got the hang of it.
Is the hot water heater any good?
Does your loader have the float option on it to for back dragging
yes
@@mikekisch5563 how do you engage it? I'm going to go look at one soon and wanted to know how to do it to make sure it works
@@powerram92 so if you press forward the bucket goes down if you move the control a little past that point you will feel a another position in the valve and the loader bucket will move freely.
Glad i found your channel, Merry Christ,mas to you and your family.
i hope you have a merry christ,mas too.
well done buddy keeping your cool outwardly 😂

the grass was about an in tall, so i figured it would be ok i imagine that much wood would take a few days to burn out.
@@mikekisch5563 10 min it be gone burned many on a eainy day or winter with snow
Got a 580D, that I'm bringing back from the dead.Plan on doing the same with mine.
good luck. its a lot of work, but i think its worth it
Put a thumb on that bucket and you will love life for jobs like this edit.. nm saw further in the vid you put a thumb on it lol
Did you get the right trailer, Mike?
yes the other one is salvagable
Subscribe was creative👍
How much did you charge for this job and how long did it take you to do
Its hard to say on cost. Its rent property we bought and are cleaning up. I would charge at least $3 per square foot if i was doing if for someone. The way i did it probably 4 days. I would not separate wood if i had to do it again. i would just haul it all to the dump and separate only wire and steel and not separate the siding I only made 80 on siding totally not worth the time..

@@mikekisch5563 thanks
Engine Still Runs Like A Bag of potatoes but Got Something Else Destroy This Time😊👌
I bet you won't do another one of those !!!!!
I know it was your first job but would it not been faster to take it to the open torch it and clean up what was left
Great videos
You should check out Andrew Comarata doing that witha bobcat and grapple
are you going to do the other trailer next?
i am going to clean it and sell.
Nice one.
Excavator Mike that's what you need.
i agree for this project, it would be nice to be able to not worry about flats, and have a more maneuverable machine.
@@mikekisch5563, Great job though keep it up bro Abandoned excavator in the near future.
@@anthonyfindlay466 i tried. i saw a bobcat 331 that needed engine work, but it sold too quick for me to get.
i am glad too hear from you.
Merry Christmas Mike
The demo was fun! The clean up never is! hahahah The backhoe is paying for itself!! Now for a dump truck! Merry Christmas!
If that is a 580D we have one of those to but ours is the silver 25 anniversary limited edition
Sell it as is.
Need some TLC.
she a good thing i like it

Did anyone else notice the rifle laying on the floor at 1:03 aprox.?
good looking out. that was an old bb gun. it was the pump action type.
Cool way to get me to subscribe!
Hay Mike how much did you pay for that old girl?????
the backhoe or the mobile home. the backhoe i have around $4000-4500 in with repairs and fluids and the mobile home came with a property I recently bought.
hi mike you need to get a small go for the I H I ,, MAKE OR the KOBOTA NOT BOBCAT THE COMPUTERS GIVE TROUBLE digger do you watch ANDREW CARRMATAS CHANEL, ALSO A trailer
Find you an abandoned excavator for those type of jobs.
i wouldnt have to worry about flats with an excavator.
Good ol reliable
It sounds like injector is clogged. Take a little ATF & run it threw the fuel
That's a cool backhoe but your stories are weird along with the way you do your videos. Live a little bit more extreme it's 20~20 my friend.
If legal there I would have put a match to it.
its not legal. only wood scrap can be burned here
Don’t u think the bucket is better
Burn o
Burn it
