The drone shots there at the end really give a perspective of how much brush he cleaned up with burning. Gonna make future work on the property so much easier.
Your not only a very good digger opperatore, but also have very good taste in music, and you're a better operator than I am a speller. All the best wishes, from an English man retired in Italy and watch every video you make

That’s going to be a beautiful place when they move in the new house with all the woods surrounding it, plenty of privacy! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Can’t wait to see it with the new pond! I know it’s going to be awesome! Thanks for sharing the great video brother and giving up your Sunday, you’re one heck of a hard worker Chris! God Bless you my friend! 🙏🏻
Chris, Bealy does some wonderful drone filming of you working. We see you from the ground but from aerial views gives your expertice a whole different view. Love watching your RUclips and then watch his.
Good job brother, out of curiosity, I went back to your excavator recovery video, now over 12 million views. Great accomplishment , congrats on the 506k subs, well deserved!
Chris you come a long ways buddy lots of burning lots of burning it's looking good it's amazing how a plan comes together can't wait to see you start on the pond now enjoy your videos Man a master Craftsman at work
It's interesting and impressive to watch you operate the equipment with muscle memory that has been repeated so many times that you hardly pay attention to the specific task at hand as you pick up, throw, adjust and scan the area to see what you will do next. Great job.
Usually a setup like that is used for hauling white poles. We would put the bolsters on, load the poles, deliver them. Then we would put the bolsters all the way forward, pick up a flatbed load to return with. Making the best with what you have. PS, don't get your boots muddy!!!!

Mornings are the best time of the day. Everything is coming alive and waking up. You can hear the birds and see all kinds of wildlife. You know the saying “if you you snooze you lose”.
Nice video and nice arial drohne view from the Top there.the smoke rising Up into the Sky there.the site from above looks great. Everything nicely cleared . I like the fire piles , everything getting burned Up like it should. Stay safe.
I seen the county here in Oklahoma dig a big hole and they had a blower they cut a ditch in to the hole and put the blower to shoot down into the hole made a super hot fire and really did a good job ever done anything like that to make the stuff burn up faster
Retired 76, can't wait to learn to use new Mini Kubota excavator, to help load truck and trailers. Tractors to big to load 5' 6" truck beds, trailers are okay.
Good show, that’s a Lot of Work to get done in thirty and a half minutes 😲🤭 Love the drone shots at the end, nice evening in good old North Carolina tonight 😎👍✅
It seems like some wings on your dozer blade would help with the brush pushing and maybe some rakes on the wings to keep the brush centered or corralled up some I know some forestry fire crews have that along with a guard up top to keep logs from coming through the windows.
You were right, getting all the brush burnt really opens up what you cleared. Did not realize the amount of fall from home site to the back of the property. I know that the pond will turn out great.
Enjoyed this video. I think a first with a drone flying near & above the bonfire. I guess a birds eye view! Good panoramic views of the immediate area too.
That last shot was pretty cool Chris !! Some kid 2 counties over says, look Mom !! Chris is burning again !! lolol...Great as always Man...Would say the digging will start soon....Have a Great Evening Man !! On too the Next..
Chris, I made some log bolsters for my penal hitch lowboy but I used a 6" box beam for the bottom and 5 inch steel pipe for the standards. They work great. I just need 3 axles instead of 2. I have a trip axle dump truck I put logs in it and on the trailer if I'm going very far. Don't tell officer Hoover! 😁😎🙋 But I'm still legal.
The drone shots really puts things in perspective,, this job was tree filled + must be a lot of sweet gums in your area ( distinct leave pattern tells all ) ,, can't wait to see the pond go in... Mister Volvo Master,, pond king and skid loader expert,, LD18 rocks............
Damn sweet watching. Reminds of that Cat 225 with the metal shear on it. Sweet machine- didn't have to think about it, just what you were doing- like picking up a fork and eating.
Awesome drone footage at the end! Aggravating how stuff keeps going beside the dozer blade... clenching my toes seeing it. Wish your dozer could drive faster to whizz backwards to pick it up again! You're doing a great job though!! WE'RE SUPPORTING YOU THROUGH THE HARD STUFF, keep it up!! :)
Well Chris you for sure got a lot burned in two days hey man I just want to say thank you for taking us along with you every day on your journey to work but anyway brother you and John and yawls family stay safe and keep the videos coming brother
Good days work Chris, you always do an amazing job my friend! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻 awesome fire brother! 👍🏻you should be playing the song from George Strait, the fireman! While you’re burning, that would be cool! lol after those stumps are in the intense heat for a while that dirt is ready to come off! lol amazing
Awesome Drone shots of the fire inside the stack from above. When are you going to have a Stump Chuckin Contest with other Diggers in the area, Distance and Accuracy, cause you seem to have it down :)> John here, from the back-roads of Tennessee.
Yeah what is it with families.Get a glass of tea head off to the back porch get settled in for 18's vid and here they come....What u doing why ru watching that damn lol!!
Nice when you can catch the pile just right to skid it along the ground without it folding under. Maybe the wet ground helps that to happen. Another great video. Hope you soon have grand children to teach the many things that you know, if you do not already.. lol
Those flats are more common up here in Michigan. They haul logs to the mill, pull the stakes and haul lumber out. Win win for them. But usually only max out at 10-12' logs not 40' lol
Massive cleanup. Three days to burn without smores or hot dogs still amazes me. Have you ever taken the fire temperature? I'm curious. Drone view of the smoke was so cool. How far did the smoke travel?

Already easier to get around.
Let's dig 18 has the best videos on RUclips
You have the best before and after videos on RUclips. I enjoy watching, no advertising, no stupid stuff just you and your machine.
Beautiful job on your success clearing your homestead. Good job on the grading, raking, burn pile that is how it's done son.

Amazing difference from the cab view to on dirt pile view. Grapple full looks a whole lot bigger from the ground. Thanks for sharing.
Love watching your videos ,I am an early riser sit outside an listen to the birds .
The new behind the scenes video is processing right now. Should be up in 20 minutes.
Will be waiting patiently!

The burn piles always look different with the 220 close and feeding it. People are blessed to have your skill in use on their property.

Chris your job site is looking good. Thanks for showing us the beautiful part of the world you lived in.
Love the drone footage over the burn pile
Added some additional ones on our channel.
Chris you come a long ways buddy lots of burning lots of burning it's looking good it's amazing how a plan comes together can't wait to see you start on the pond now enjoy your videos Man a master Craftsman at work
As always great video,loved the lumber trailer,bet d.o.t. Would love to talk to that driver.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Man that trap is as legal as a 2 dalla watch!
I swear I could see the cable ties holding it on
Well we can tell who's never driven a flatbed trailer. There was nothing wrong with that setup and is dot legal.
Looking great Wont belong now and Pond time Thanks for sharing 👍 😀
Always love a good burn pile . I especially like the drone view of the fire

Watching you work the equipment is like having a Meatloaf Dinner at your favorite Diner
Comfort food
Lol

A little cleanup makes the place look awesome. :)
It's really not work when you enjoy what you do!
Positive/happy attitude, highly efficient, & care about other folks equipment.

Another great video of the progress bro, the drone shots are awesome. Safe travels
boy, the lot looks so much better with all that scrap cleared and burned.
The. Homestead project is now looking good and clean
Tough going. Good job Chris. Them big ole stumps get expensive in the long run.
Great vid!
That last shot was pretty cool Chris !! Some kid 2 counties over says, look Mom !! Chris is burning again !! lolol...Great as always Man...Would say the digging will start soon....Have a Great Evening Man !! On too the Next..
cool video by drone,,,, nice safe operating project, especially with the forest in the background
The final day to the fire. The place is clear good work. You can beginnings to buildig the pond. A great video. Greeting to Vienna
wow moving those huge stumps with the blade was awesome to watch..
Great drone vision 🦘🇦🇺👍
I like the new video format with the speeding up of the video and the music don't change it
Thanks like the video Chris and like the job your doing .
Another satisfying clean-up and burn vid. Thanks Chis.👍🏻

Tri axle not "trip" LoL
If that’s the only Truck Ryder had available, it’s going to be Sketchy driving it over to the Pulp Mill.🤪
The little yellow machine did seem to get more dirt off the stumps. They just had to rotate along. Nice job as always.
Looking good!

Moving some of that wood looked like it was a real drag. :)
Damn sweet watching. Reminds of that Cat 225 with the metal shear on it. Sweet machine- didn't have to think about it, just what you were doing- like picking up a fork and eating.
Always good when mess is gone and no site clean and can move around
Another job well done Chris 🇺🇲
Awesome drone footage at the end! Aggravating how stuff keeps going beside the dozer blade... clenching my toes seeing it. Wish your dozer could drive faster to whizz backwards to pick it up again! You're doing a great job though!!
WE'RE SUPPORTING YOU THROUGH THE HARD STUFF, keep it up!! :)
Those stumps and roots are tougher to get rid of than a bad case of Hemorrhoids!!
The burn pit doesn't look that big, until you put the excavator next to it! That pit is HUGE! lol
Great video
Chris that’sone heck of a burn pit, job is looking great. Thanks for sharing. Kevin
The fire-breathing T.Rex is preparing his barbecue for dinner. Love your videos Chris.
I don’t what it is but, I just love that sound of the dozer tracks rolling. and then followed by the excellent music track at the end
Those construction guys from April finally picked up their Skid Steer. I love your videos and all videos that deal with excavators.
Well Chris you for sure got a lot burned in two days hey man I just want to say thank you for taking us along with you every day on your journey to work but anyway brother you and John and yawls family stay safe and keep the videos coming brother
Looking awesome Chris🔥🔥 👍👍😎😎👍👍🔥🔥
I'm just now starting to see the vision you had on the first day!!! I can see your smoke from Massachusetts!!
Half a million subs? Truly a grass roots effort!
@letsdig18 .... Can you purchase like a sticker style thermometer to attach to that front glass? Cool vids man.
great looking yard.
I ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO CHRIS 😊
You really dont get the size of that fire pit till you park next to it. Another great vid!!!

@@ipaddlemyowncanoe.7441 Yeah, borrowing one only to find it leaks is no fun
Looks good 👍 Comin along nice Chris
Another great job as always!!👍👍
There are times on the videos when the excavator looks like some sort of prehistoric animal
The not so rare Volvosaurus, an excellent habitat maker.
Great smoke trail!!!

Chris, I like the new drone music 😀
Where's your boy Winston ? Growing like a weed I bet.
And the cattle - how are the cattle?
Update on the farm ?
Take your kid (doggo) to work day🤣
Quite the transformation 👍
I have 3 acres of Russian olive bushes that need to be cleared and burned but Michigan is probably too far away for a 3 acre job lol
Call Upstate Brush Control. He and his crew may want a paid vacation!
Great vlog 👍👍
Nice big fire
My wife and kids hate when I watch this show and I love it 🤣
They have no taste😉
Yeah what is it with families.Get a glass of tea head off to the back porch get settled in for 18's vid and here they come....What u doing why ru watching that damn lol!!

Nice when you can catch the pile just right to skid it along the ground without it folding under. Maybe the wet ground helps that to happen.

Hope you soon have grand children to teach the many things that you know, if you do not already.. lol
Need you a temp probe on the drone to see how hot hot the smoke is up there lol
That's a very expensive fire poker you got there.
Getting Her done !!!
Man I sure hope y'all have a bunch of chains for that log trailer. Boy-o-boy
Looking Good :)

Its obvious that you work long hours but when you chuck stumps into a fire with an excavator you are having way too much fun..
Always busy and progress being made. Remember when there was nothing but dust. It’s feast or famine on this site. Like the way it’s shaping up.
Massive cleanup. Three days to burn without smores or hot dogs still amazes me.
Have you ever taken the fire temperature? I'm curious.
Drone view of the smoke was so cool. How far did the smoke travel?
I like the way you work yeah good operator
