    Thanks for the tips Boss man. Even though my boom and stick combined are only 10 feet… the same rules apply. I just end up moving my baby backhoe more often.
    Now, all I need is a job with no rocks. Maybe then I can dig one that is pretty!

    Great video… I’m moving into my second career at 54…. from an office job to machine work. Picked up a couple Kubota minis.. do some pool digs etc. Watching you I can’t help to think of the possibility of a wall collapse when your machine sits right on the edge of the dig parallel to the hole. On my recent pool job, the ground was pure sand… scary!

    *SLICK* Notice at the start of the video, BOSS stretched the bucket OUT to warm it all up like stretching our body before hard work! Big help is the *ABILITY TO THINK* by planting you feet (or tracks) in the position most favorable for production rather than move the machine a bunch of times! Lots of *THOUGHT PROCESS* as *THE BOSS SHOWS US*

    New guys starting out... Really try this technique with the basic laser on boom setup.. I have a full laser and depth check both setup in my machine.. And i think its largely unneeded if you just get good with this basic way dirtboss is showing. I mean you gotta think can the expense be better in your pocket ?? Food for thought

    Great video. How fitting I am building a house and my foundation guy just dropped off excavator today for digging this week. I am worried about water when digging ours because we already had borings done because we knew about high perched water table and are only digging 5 feet down.

      @bnice5821 8 месяцев назад

      Suspicious. If you really want to look with open eyes, it’s fishy. Fire extinguisher (like new, no dirt ) on the Kubota. He took time to set up the cameras. If it were my machine, screw the filming. He either doesn’t give a rats a$$ about anything he owns, or he set it up. New looking fire extinguishers with no sign of being in the elements and it doesn’t work? Why does he have one in that machine but not the newer machine? He tried to blow the fire out with his mouth. Give me a break. I’m one that doesn’t want to be suspicious of a guy like Andrew, but dam. It doesn’t add up. Maybe he’s taking a play from Whislin Diesel.

    • @bnice5821
