Andrew...just a note: We don't mind if your vids are like an hour long or so, they're always a good watch. I'm sure everyone will agree! 👍
Love the hour long mini movies
and yet... if he breaks in 2 parts he monetizes double! I think youtube videos SHOULD be worth doing, or else they start to be more of a drag than fun
The Geezer on one video you came across a bee hive Nader a porch but you had no torch so you used a garden hose what we do at times we take a long bambo pole with a m-80 firework on the end of the pole light it and stick it into the hive no more bee trouble not to good or cruel but in a emergency it fixes the problem of bees or.stoping the job !
Shoot I enjoy the longer video's that he makes. I'd rather watch a 2hr A.C video the a 30min video from half the clowns on RUclips
@@michaeltarasenkoop2389 dude wtf are you talking about?
Hi Andrew, I’ve been watching your videos for about 6 months or so and I’ve watched pretty much every single one you have made and I’ve got to say your such an honest genuine guy and a proper go getter. I wish all the best for you in life as you deserve it 100 times over.
Thanks.
Mr. Camarata, there is something very primordial about your videos which makes them such a joy to watch. Additionally, all your videos demonstrate great patience. I wish your channel was around when raising my children. Thank you for taking the time to create your works of art.
There’s something really satisfying about watching heavy machinery and Andrew hard at work.
Here I am, thousands of miles away across oceans and seas, and I`m just watching in awe of how easy you make it all look young Andrew.. Thanks for your videos.. (Ian) UK
You are so right Ivor. I have done very similar things as to what Andrew does, and it's not easy, but he makes it look that way. He is a master! For someone his age, he is so good at this stuff. He also sounds like a real good hearted guy. He is my favorite on youtube.
Me too
Hi Ian. I am from Lancaster, Lancashire. I think Andrew is very interesting to watch. I have not watch the crapping TV for ages, just been going through Andrew's video's.
Andrew Camarata has just said “I’m going to buy an IHI CL45 skidsteer and get rid of my Bobcats”.
@@buzzerd48 me too
Who knew I would enjoy working on driveways while drinking my coffee... ☕
Something inspiring about fixing things huh?
Or drinking anything. If someone had told me a month ago before I found this guy that I would be entertained by excavating, knocking down trees repairing equipment, I would have told them they were nuts. This guy is great. From the work he does to his "productions" , and of course hsi dogs, it is all great. This is the only You Tuber that I have set up for notifications.
Have you gone back and watched his older content?
I have spent countless hours in the last months catching up...
Add to that the fact that the area of the world he lives in is beautiful!!
@@deannamarie4149 I tried to describe Andrew's videos to someone as a cross between Mega Machines and Twin Peaks. Andrew is the "Special Agent Cooper" of operating and the "David Lynch" of the Hudson River Valley.
@Brian Navalinsky
Lol. You will have to forgive me. I have no idea what/who any of those things are.
I do know that Andrew is better quality entertainment than
Jersey Shore or the Kardashians could ever be (for me anyway) ✌
So, I have no idea what your going rate is for grubbing out ditches in solid rock, but what ever it is, it's not enough. What I like about you is your commitment for doing the best for your customer regardless of the job. Good work as usual.
After 25 years as a network engineer working in offices and server farms, I have been inspired by you to get my heavy equipment operators license and start a new career playing in the dirt! Here's to a change of life!
The work this man does with 20-30+ year old equipment is amazing. Imagine what he’d accomplish if he got sponsored by an equipment company that supplied new stuff.
jay west isn’t new stuff just computer Controled junk?
No hed make less progress because all the electronics would just brake
@@AndrewCamarata It's not horrible, just different. The Volvo I have is 2012 and people were actually complaining that the servo controls reacted too fast. You will get into fast situations where you have to release the controls because you can feel it going into "spaz" mode.
There is no doubt that Kubota or Cat would love to have someone like you rep for them. Just stay you and don't go Hollywood.
@@AndrewCamarata I think keeping an open mind is important, new doesn't always have to mean bad. Anything can be good if you pay enough (which is the main problem)
Yes a Friday afternoon with my top youtuber Andrew
Matt Martin Me too....
Me too! Just got off work
it's saturday my dude
It's 2:22 here and I'm watching this dude 😵🙉 I love this channel 💪💪
Me too bro
I broke my leg couple months ago and started watching. I love how nothing stops him, something breaks down he fixes it. Something goes sideways and he figures it out. May not be pretty how he gets to the end but the finished project is always pretty good.
andrew you are a legend and an inspiration. your handwork and meticulousness is mesmerizing. thank you for sharing with us all!
I found one of your videos 2 days ago and literally watched every video u made I’m hooked good job man !
2 days and watched almost every video? That's impossible, liar.

Same here, about a week ago, and I've shamelessly binged-watched ever since!

CONGRATS ON 250K. You an Levi must be over joyed. Keep up the great work you two 😎👍
I don’t know why this type of work is so satisfying to watch. It must be man’s overwhelming need to conquer Mother Nature.
Never thought watching a guy fix a driveway would be entertaining, but can't get enough of your videos. Great content and great commentary. Thanks for sharing
For those who don't own or operate this type of equipment, the tracked skid steer is essential a single plane device (bucket is always parallel to the tracks). Getting crown on the road is a difficult task that Andrew makes look sooooo easy. Excellent work young man!!
Just what I needed this Friday! I've been longing for another AC video being released. Congratulations on your 250k Subscribers! I'm in awe of your work ethics and adaptability - by far my favourite RUclipsr. Thank you.
My 3 year old grandson and I just had a 5 minute conversation about rocks . Why we don't have rocks in our part of Texas and why Andrew has rocks in his part of New York . His last question was what's a New York . Great program thanks
With all those flat rocks, a LOT of patios, sidewalks, driveways, or walls/fences.
ikr, seeign that large slab get boken up hurt me a little XD
There are many rock walls in this area.
I wish that stone was plentiful (and free) in my area. Andrew lives in a beautiful part of the country
Looking amazing, I am very impressed by how easy you was digging in the rocks. Thank you for sharing your story. God bless you and your family
250k Subs Way to go Andrew!🤘🤘
It's like wildfire now!
And 6 months ago he had only 60k, so cool! He is a legend!
I always enjoy seeing your kids checking out the job with you Andrew! I’m definitely a dog lover! 👍🏻👍🏻
Oh my, I’ve got to save this till tonight! Going to be on my mind all day, got work to do, this really kills my focus.
Finally........ just watched, was worth the wait, thank you Andrew!
Way to go Andrew 🚜 and Lacy🐺, your very good at diagnosing driveways and fixing them, keep up the good work.
I’ve been admiring the blue skid steer ever since you acquired her, glad to hear the bcats are being replaced by such great machines. The machines are only as good as the operator and you are the best I’ve ever seen Andrew. I love these long videos you are posting now, stay safe and stay awesome! ✌️
I thought for sure the big hammer was coming out! Great vid!
As a rural mailman, I work on roads like these all the time. But nowhere NEAR as nice as these roads. I wish the homeowners here would hire Andrew to fix their roads lol
Craig Perkey I was a rural carrier for 8 years.
I was a rural carrier now a road builder in Kentucky , I know exactly what you mean!
@@AndrewCamarata Wow! 8 years!? Was that right after high school?
@@matthewschliesser3835 year after
@@AndrewCamarata I'm glad you quit that career and decided to do this instead! Otherwise I wouldn't have any videos to watch? You're what 35 now?
Dang I guessed he was going to upload yesterday not today. Close enough! Great to see more of Levi and the other dogs on the job sites
Nice to see your equipment is running so well. Congrats. Great job as always
Every single video of yours I've watched from start to end, I'm still catching up on older videos. Keep up the good work Andrew, you're providing excellent content. I never thought I'd be watching property maintenance videos, but now they've become my favorite videos.
250K yes you earned it Andrew! Im so excited! ha ha.

Thanks, buddy. Great Video as always. Always a Joy to watch.
You make such a mundane job look so interesting and watchable I like the way you speed it up to keep it interesting well done another great vid, thanks 🇬🇧
A great way to start some weekend, YT viewing - AC you are a One Man Roadway Department!
Andrew your story telling is visually interesting and well paced. Your time lapse segments effectively conserve viewer time, accelerate cinematic time, but still reveal the huge amount of work you do on any given job. Well done!
Love to see our Levi and Lacy on the job.

Folks in your neck of the woods are lucky to have someone as skilled and dedicated as you! You do great work and give 100% on each job.
Just got home 🏡 from a business trip had no internet connection for a few days hated it !! Just woke up to a notification that Andrew just upload a new video ..... Alsome !!!! I feel refreshed what a great job on that driveway !!!!
The Profetional hit again. God. Bless you My friend,,
I m juancho b anthony pilipino canadian ,,,
My wife happened to look over my shoulder while I was watching one of Andrew's videos where he was fixing a driveway.. she asked "why would I watch some guy push dirt around"... I showed her the castle that Andrew built and a couple other videos... she gets it now. There doesn't seem to be much that Andrew can't fix and I appreciate it when he shows something he could have done better.. he is the kind of guy who built
America.
Clearly not a "poser" with bright shiny equipment that never gets used... his equipment isn't mostly that pretty but it works and he works and he can fix whatever breaks.
Beautiful yet rugged country you have up there Andrew. Great work!
Good Job Andrew ! This channel is simply amazing! Better then anything on TV. I always learn a lot from each of your projects
The way the rock in your area behaves is fascinating, it's like geological Butterfinger candy.
Guy Smiley it’s unreal. Hit rock here in Maine and you gotta bring in the explosives
I know it. As I was watching this video, I was thinking if Andrew could get a hold of a small to medium size rock crusher that he could control the size of the finished product. He could have a setup at the castle where he produces and makes his own gravel and road base. That stuff makes the absolute best base there is. Seems like he has a unlimited supply, and could have his own supply to sell. Just a thought.
I came here to get away from the food videos, and now I want a Butterfinger. DAmn YOu.
@@scotabot7826 I think he actually has a video where he digs & uses some of his own material... it might have been the one about building the driveway on his own property.

Great Video. I like how you follow up afterwards as well as show the completed work.
You seem much smoother with a lot less track slippage on that IHI, glad it's working for you.
Hey Andrew, as other people have mentioned 250 subs is quite an accomplishment and congrats to you buddy. I can still remember when you had only 25k and I said to myself "this kid is going to make it big here on RUclips". Its also nice to see people who appreciate what you do and that thank you for the vids. I'm learning quite a bit for my business watching your channel which was the inspiration behind our company Timberhitch. Well off to buy a ditch cleaning bucket for my Volvo as we have a job to do soon. looking forward to the next project. DMC
Been watching Andrew for awhile now, as hard as he works, I'm surprised there isn't a video of a beautiful shale stone fence he has built anywhere.
I think it's because everyone hates that stone there lol
Most of your videos show you in a beautiful, quiet wooded area, with no one around, just you and your equipment, and your mind working to solve problems. Looks like a beatiful occupation. I may have gotten intot the wrong business as a young man...
Things are coming together and you look more relaxed and not as stressed, seeing your family close has probably helped you with that, keep the vids coming !
Andrew my friend there is nothing you cannot do... love your videos
Awesome work every time. You can see the landscapes greatly improved, WE can see the quality of his years of knowledge and having the right gear while knowing how to use it .👍🏡🚙👌🔧😇

Awesome job bro I'm also new here are drive way is so horrible when there's a heavy rain it washes out i do need to fix it but we also don't have the money for more gravel right now we kinda have a ditch on the side for the water
Being a southerner, the land up there in New York is really interesting and cool. A lot of the big heavy boulders up there are leftover from the last glacial period. And as per usual, automatic thumbs up for Andrew doing his thing!
I often find myself watching these video when I really should be doing some work myself. But hey now I fel like I fixed a driveway today, and fast too. I'm not sure the misses sees this in the same way.
steenfraosterbro 🤣👍🏼
I love the castle Andrew and I’d love to see it, but I miss watching you do these jobs my brother! Plus I believe that your videos have the best editing and everyone of them are awesome! Most I see get so boring waiting for the finished product, you have edited them and there’s never a dull moment! I really enjoy them and I think for your age you’re one Smart Cookie! lol A man that can operate all your machines and repair them too, that’s freakin awesome! I’m a retired certified welder/Pipefitter/fabricator and I love everything you fixed and fabricate! Thanks for sharing your experiences with us my brother! If you ever need any advice on welding I’d be honored to share with you my friend! Your friend Kirk Rogers in Louisiana! Keep em coming my friend! 👍🏻👍🏻
I just watched this video and I was very impressed with the quality of the vision. Close up of the rocks and shale I felt I was there. Well done. Cheers Steve
Thanks for posting videos again Andrew, on a regular basis, we love your channel buddy. Greetings from one of your many loyal viewers in the UK. Keep on digging bro.
Damn, Andrew. Back at it again with the uploads.
Subscribed the other day after watching one video!!! You are very good at what you do, which is everything!!! Shocked to see someone helping you, but you said a homeowner helped with the trees!!! Thanks for taking the time on your videos!!! Have a great w/e from East Texas!!
Like always Andrew doing awesome work driveway repair. 👍
Just what I needed , when I needed it. Good job and thanks for sharing. :)
Wow before I even fully get up Andrew has already fixed a driveway today 😂.
That's my favorite skid-steer too, It runs so smooth!
So glad that you got projects again. I missed seeing regular videos from you. Love your channel! You always do a great job.
The music that starts at 14:00 was PERFECT for the action on the screen. Great video!
Another amazing job well done Andrew. Have a wonderful day buddy. Thank you so much for all the videos.
Wow . . . looks like a wicket hard job, that CL 35 seems to do a great work. Great video. Cheers.
Man, you really improved that situation a lot. Excellent, Andrew.
Like every other job, Well done!!! I'm sure they will be bringing you back to finish the rest of the driveway and culvert pipes!
Nice job, so much good. Watching from Brazil 🇧🇷
Your work ethic, knowledge, skill, and direct practical approach to problem solving are a breath of fresh air. I really enjoy your videos. I love your dog Levi!
Thanks for the great video mate ,your videos are the best hands down ,you explain the job before starting and again when your done ,and telling us why you may have had to do something a particular way .Your editing and camera placement gives a great perspective ,and always finishing with the drone shot of the job ,and then turn to give us a reference to what I'm guessing is towards your property ,a truly beautiful part of the world thanks for sharing it with us. Cheers from down under.
I always learn something new every time I watch your videos, keep it up.
Awsum job, I watch yer work regularly
Thank you Andrew. You and your videos are part of my world now.
Great video as usual! I saw that big rectangular slab peel off the bank and started thinking about how nice something like that would look over my fireplace.
Did anyone catch the white tail deer @25:34 look right of the lab in the foreground not far down the hill. Nice repair job by the way. You certainly take pride in your work @ Andrew Camarata.
Well spotted!
I'll never be a hunter because I do not see a deer
Looked several times,, still cant see the deer.
I see 2 dogs, no deer.
Gravel out of truck like that is satisfying
Great job, Andrew. I'll bet the people in your community are glad to have a man with your talents living there.
The camera quality of that drone is amazing. And the green is so vibrant!
A good crown is the most important thing. No less than 5 % from the tracks out over the edge, after maintenance.
Quality work, Andrew!
The thing I like the most about your videos is you treat the property you are working on like you own it. Only time I've ever been nervous watching one of your videos was when the young gentleman started running that chainsaw. Twice I thought we about to see him get knocked out!! That second cut he made actually widow maker cracked on him.
Thank you sharing your experience, knowledge and the thought process you use to build, operate and maintain your equipment. Good health and good luck to you.
Always doing good work, with the trusty sidekick.
The video quality is on point like usual and the content is always made interesting. I am surprised you don't have 1 mil subscribers..
Hes on his way man! Andrew really blew up over these last 2-3 years. I agree on the quality and content, too. he pours his heart into the work quality and video production and it shows.
your videos are so freaking good andrew!!!
Good job Andrew!!! I always enjoy your videos.
You seem to be getting more done with the upgrades in equipment made in the past year. You made some good decisions based on experience rather than brand name. Thanks for the video.
If Andrew posted a video of him changing his toilet paper roll, I would watch it!
He would probably use an excavator so it would be something to see.
I imagine his incites would be very enlightening! He would be able to tell us why over the top is more appropriate than under the roll. Levi would supervise as usual!
@@markreetz1001 No, Andrew is a under the roll type! You can yank from under the roll, and it nor tear and break off, where as over the roll tends to break off more when yanking it. We all know how Andrew likes to go wide open when working!
Andrew is probably rolling his eyes and saying, "Is this what my site has come to...toilet paper?" ha!
Lol
An AC video with a fresh cup of coffee. On to the next job.
This is probably the best youtube channel, i love it man. over 20 minutes of content and still no adds, and its stuff thats nice to watch over time.
I accidentally clicked on a lets dig video....I watched it. It was about him building this 10 acre pond with a dam. The entire time I am watching this video I'm wondering where the water is coming from to fill up this huge pond. Well, he ends his video on a shot of this giant hole in the ground with absolutely no water in it. It was a giant waste of time. My point is Andrew, anyone with a camera can make a video. You let your viewers know what your doing, show us how to do it and show the final product. Its an art and you do it very well. Thank you for sharing it with us.
I like the controls on that Skid Steer! But I havent seen any of those brands around here in Canada
It's a rebadged Takeuchi. Great machines.
@@BrianNavalinsky ahh ok..I have seen a few of those here!
@@Northern_Farmer I have a friend with a paving business and Takeuchi is all he will use, including out of town leases.
If NY is getting as much rain as we are here in Central Ohio, you're going to have plenty of work for the rest of Summer!
P.S. Congrats on 250k!
Been very rainy in our part of new york a hour from andrew
Beautifully shaped and profiled road. A driveway to be proud of! 👍
Nice work mate. Super gratifying to see the finish product! Quality.
Andrew, hello from Ukraine! Good luck. 😀

Who cares what´s on TV?
Put Andrew on your TV. I figured out how to cast RUclips to my TV. Cancel cable.
I haven’t watched tv in years, there’s just so much great content on here, with Andrew, AvE, Keith Rucker, and humorous others who needs to pay the TV License 😂
@@almostanengineer
You misunderstand. I watch Andrew's movies on a 60" flatscreen TV. You can stream RUclips to your TV with your phone for free.
Absolutely true.
I love nature so much, one of the reasons I like to watch your fantastic videos, I feel I'm there, in the wood, I can smell the nature and fresh air, addicted to watch your profession, gives me kind of satisfaction being in touch with nature, like always keep the good work but take it easier.
Andrew, you have such a good vision of the final product even before you start the project ...... and you fulfill that vision with precision.
