Chris: Not gonna burn today....let it dry out. 5mins later; sure would like to burn today; 30 mons later; gonna keep it small; 30 mins later, 30 feet high, flames 50 ft tall. lol every time.
Your situational awareness is the best. I know, being a big machine operator, you need to have it but you see all kinds of things around you and it's great to see. Of course there are more trees to take down, you are too good!🤣Looking forward to the dirt moving portion now. This is going to be a great project. And Happy belated Birthday.
The person to accurately post his birthday wins….in the event that both have the correct day, tie-breaker questions will be: Birthweight and length. Time of day he was delivered. Hospital name where he was born. Mothers full name. Chris’ favorite color. Best of 5 ..if still tied: Number of model’s (miniature tractors and other machinery) that Chris says he has in his collection . If still tied…both are instantly entered in as co-presidents of Chris fan club
@@Skorpychan that’s not President of the fan club material…more like a fan-boi. There’s a whole lot of us with all sorts of different methods of hyperbole and favorite stories. Two of mine are the first video I watched where he dug out a machine up to its tits in mud. Then I gotta say when he volunteered to go stop a landfill fire which was out of control (spreading underground) and with seemingly no way to stop it. Chris put it out simply by digging, tamping out small areas, and removing that area from being a viable source of fuel. I’m gonna go with Vicki as the winner here. She is a regular contributor, is always positive and she mentioned his birthday (wishing him a belated one) is a very nice gesture. She also weighs in on other channels where I often see her comments (she has a writing style). She is complimentary and seemingly also knows a thing or two about a thing or two, yet she won’t spend cycles on this type of spinning on channel comment boards. To borrow a line from a favorite movie….”I’ll be your huckleberry” also from that same movie “let’s dance”.
Looked like another good day !! Yeah Man, when you was going back across that hill, you could tell it was pretty steep, vs what the camera shows !! lolol... Looks like that's going to take a lot of dirt for this one..... Great as always Chris !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!
Love hearing the crickets on your intro. Been watching you for several years. You are the best and I compare any equipment operator I see. They they never win.
I wonder if you put one of those big blowers the use on inflatable bounce houses on a burn pile. I know stacking it up at the bottom in a way to make channels to pull in air really helps. Theoretically a blower would clean it up and burn it faster. Best part is you f450 should have a inverter big enough to run it with an extension cord. 😉
To first HAPPY BIRTHDAY Chris. 💐🎉🎂 And thanks for all Your excellent Videos what us on Your Workdays to take part in to let. And Your manifold to know always let to see.. Greeting from Austria
Man oh man would I would love to have those logs sawed into lumber . Straight lumber is almost nonexistent . Cut a band on a stack of lumber in the south and it looks like one of those cans you open and the snakes spring out going every where . Looking good Chris . It's just more pleasant and fulfilling to have the right equipment to do a job . God bless ,,,, John 3- 16 .
'surprised it didn't die' - Yes. That's useful to know. Oh. It looks like burring the trunk did kill it - in the process of dying - no root ball to speak of - roots rotted off?
Great work Chris, but there's no way in hell that truck is rated to carry that much weight in logs...lol That trailer loaded probably weighs close to 20,000 lbs.
The saw will go in the work truck, in the storage for it, moving with Chris from jobsite to jobsite. Else Chris might need a saw in each excavator, and / or possibly every piece of equipment he owns or uses.
I think you’re grandstanding when it comes to taking down trees with a 45,000 pound excavator . You should be able to put that tree anywhere you want to with a 45,000 pound excavator.
Wow, I'm surprised you mentioned and recommended Mrs Kathy Lien. Well I don't have much to say about her but I'll advice newbie to place their trade under her services.
You were certainly in an upbeat frame of mind. I always wonder if you keep up the running commentary even if you aren’t videoing. It certainly adds to your videos and shows a lot of the thought process that goes into job planning and execution.
Hello Chris, it scares the heck out of me to see you felling trees without a hard hat! Ts 28:06. I would have been dead @ 18 and again @ 42 if I hadn't been wearing one. The second time, I was on a steep slope and when the top came down and hit the hard hat, my feet slipped down hill and when I woke up an hour later, I was ok. Please be careful.
Dude I love watching your knowledge as well experience on all this clearing and building. I passed up a chance many a year ago to get I on equipment because the chap was fresh and no guarantees on work, yet I had my first newborn and stayed in roofing because of regular pay guarantee. My back hurts and my feet and hand coordination wishes I would have taken that opportunity! And the chap ended up fairly successful... butt life is I have 2 beautiful children no matter the cost!
Yeah roofing and building construction in general break the body down like not many other professions. I’m not saying it’s the only one but it is one of them.
Always good to watch LetsDig18 taking trees down and saving them. Nice to see some rain - it's been very dry. Acknowledge being busy - time is of the essence.
Love watching you work and there is no doubt you know what your doing, but I always have to chuckle and ask myself how much of an eye opening would you have trying to uproot and tip over a well established sycamore here in this heavy clay of southeast Mo. That is the one tree here that the JD 850K that I run has to tip it's hat in respect to. All the best to you and all your efforts!
Nice logs going off to a mill. Good saw work with the 220, I cut a 20 inch water oak and pushed it with the forks on my tractor yesterday cleaning up storm damage for a neighbor from Hurricane Idealia.
Makes you wonder with such a small root ball on some of those trees, why they just don;t fall over sooner..didn't noticed the dog, til just seconds after you mentioned it, and then I saw him, running up on the left side..good job taking the trees down. funny that you took sown some, and then the owner wanted to you take down a few more, cause she didn't like em. LOL.
Alright, for once we got to see Chris wrangling a chainsaw on a tree to get it down where he wants it to go. I myself would like to see Chris using his chainsaw more. That's definitely gonna be a nice pasture when he's finished with it and some real happy horses not to mention the property owner.

Man's been doing this for most of his life. Of course he's good at it, he was basically raised on heavy machinery.
@@Skorpychan I am aware of that. I've watched other heavy equipment operators who don't have the awareness Chris has.
The person to accurately post his birthday wins….in the event that both have the correct day, tie-breaker questions will be:
Birthweight and length.

@@genesispuredeaf2390 I'm pretty sure he was born in the bucket of an excavator, or at least baptised with one.

I like the thud when the heavy trees hit the ground, even a minor quake takes place. Quality furniture logs. Next recliner possibly sitting there.

Thanks again ❤Let's Dig 18 !!!!
Evening all from the UK 🇬🇧🇬🇧 Thanks for all the videos Chris 👍👍
I always check for a video each evening!
Love hearing the crickets on your intro. Been watching you for several years. You are the best and I compare any equipment operator I see. They they never win.
Nothing better than a letsdig18 video to start a Saturday out!

That one pine tree was dug in like a Alabama tick
Good morning Sunday from Australia ❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂
Happy birthday to Chris
To first HAPPY BIRTHDAY Chris. 💐🎉🎂

Nice work. Greetings from Denmark.. 👍🏻💪🏻

The dog was just checking on what toilet TREE you were taking down . LOL :)
Doggie! Horsey!!
Like watching your plans for the day go good thanks for the video
that 1st tree today would be a marine pine ...it adapted and overcame its situation.
Timber. They all fall down. Thanks Chris.
Chris great video! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
Another great video Chris keep them coming please
Does your computer systems on the machine give you the weight on each pick?
I noticed the two stacks, made me question if you laid them out per load.
Great job great video thanks Chris
How far up did the rot in that oak go? Looked like a nice tree from the outside from what I could see on camera.
No Squishn D Dogie!
nice
'surprised it didn't die' - Yes. That's useful to know.
Oh. It looks like burring the trunk did kill it - in the process of dying - no root ball to speak of - roots rotted off?
chains saws and puppy dogs
pine and horses not mix?
Nice, Chris
Great work Chris, but there's no way in hell that truck is rated to carry that much weight in logs...lol That trailer loaded probably weighs close to 20,000 lbs.
Do you keep the saw in a box on the hoe? What kind of storage is there in one of those machines.
The saw will go in the work truck, in the storage for it, moving with Chris from jobsite to jobsite.
Else Chris might need a saw in each excavator, and / or possibly every piece of equipment he owns or uses.
HB Chris.
good video
You'd think it'd be a lot easier to just drop the trees with a chainsaw and then pull the stumps.
More leverage with the tree still attached.
was that cotton grabbing them logs?
I think you’re grandstanding when it comes to taking down trees with a 45,000 pound excavator . You should be able to put that tree anywhere you want to with a 45,000 pound excavator.
I wonder how many trees he's taken down in his career?
bestust
Hi buddy
Good day.
Congratulations on being first!
👍✌
the title inicates you either just got married or retired. both heap shovelfuls of "to do"s.
😄👍👍👍👍👍 (📷åkerman=volvo 🤔)
I'm favoured financially, Thank you Jesus.$32,000 weekly profit regardless of how bad it gets on the economy.
That sounds Good, I hope you won't mind telling me how to go about making that much??
I have earned over $600k investing in a digital market with the guidance of Mrs Kathy Lien trading services.
Hello friend, I also trade with Mrs Kathy trading services what a coincidence!
Amazing, I also trade with Kathy Lien analysis and guidance. She's perfect with crypto trading that I have got upto $57,000 monthly returns
Wow, I'm surprised you mentioned and recommended Mrs Kathy Lien. Well I don't have much to say about her but I'll advice newbie to place their trade under her services.
Can’t wait for the dirt moving part of the video. Some nice looking logs heading out there!!
That guy had a great idea with that log trailer. Hauls a nice load. Don't have to be massive, just cheaper than getting a big truck in or stuck.
Happy birthday chris thanks for all the great videos
I know what you do isn't easy. Thankyou for catching it all on film for other people to see. It sure is an innocent pleasure.
Great video as always,beautiful place,looks like it was a nice day for you.
Job well done 👍🏻 happy birthday Chris 🎉
You were certainly in an upbeat frame of mind. I always wonder if you keep up the running commentary even if you aren’t videoing. It certainly adds to your videos and shows a lot of the thought process that goes into job planning and execution.
I don't think there are enough days in the week for Chris to get done everything he does. There has to be two of that guy.
Didn't he say in a video not long ago he works like 6 or 61/2 days a week?
Enjoy this video and were the Dog came from .
it is $100 every time he steps off the machine and $50 every time he pulls the starter cord
I'd say "HUMPY" was the bonus word of this video!
That's a variation on "humpty bump" which he used while describing the building pad grade in an earlier video. 😆
Good Saturday night viewing 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks for the update, nice looking logs from those trees.
Good Morning from the Philippines
Those trees are pretty tall nice work
Very nice load of pine logs. You sure did a great job taking the trees down.
I know that guy. Tim Burr.
chris out there inventing new words " Slickery " is that the correct spelling chris lol

I agree he's been fortunate so far.
He has an excavator umbrella over the top
From far away it looks like a Border Collie. Love those dogs!
Hard work, loved watching big pines coming down! Thanks for sharing! ❤❤❤
have a great weekend ya'll!!

Do you have insurance on the machine if you drop a tree on it
yes
But I'll bet you don't really want to use it.
Happy birthday Chris, letsdig Timbbberrrr!
I saw that dog off in the distance & thought it was another cat coming to get you. 😀
🤣
Another fine clearing job by letsdig18. Good narration which always makes the video better.
You are such a workaholic building your business that I would not want to see you get too far ahead of yourself by bidding too many jobs.
Love watching you work and there is no doubt you know what your doing, but I always have to chuckle and ask myself how much of an eye opening would you have trying to uproot and tip over a well established sycamore here in this heavy clay of southeast Mo.

Nice logs going off to a mill. Good saw work with the 220, I cut a 20 inch water oak and pushed it with the forks on my tractor yesterday cleaning up storm damage for a neighbor from Hurricane Idealia.
did you take lessons from logger wade !! ( hahahahah)
Looking forward to watching the rest of this project
Is there a paper mill nearby ? Or do you send the logs to a saw mill ?
Allways more to do, BECAUSE you do everything so beutiful.
Another great video to watch...Doing a fine job Chris,,,, Stay safe
Too much to do, is a good thing. Having to look for work is not good.
That’s a awful lot of dirt that’s going to have to be moved .
[27:32] That was quite a load of lumber
Thank you, Chris, for sharing and have a good day.
I really wish mr. Beeley Good would give dog dog a real name! 😅
??? This is not the Beely Good farm.
Speaking of dogs 🐶, how’s Winston doing?
Nice start to a nice project.
Good morning Chris❤😊
Thanks Chris 👍🍺
Congratulations 🥳
Great job
👍👍🙂🇨🇦
Subtitles don't work when Chris speaks. Just says "foreign". Lol
THANKS!
Horses seem popular in these Counties. Can Chris ride a horse?
I rode a horse once when I was 15. We went on a 3 hour ride and I hurt so bad the next day I've never sat on another one lol
I'm impressed with that truck pulling that gooseneck trailer loaded with logs. Must be a 3500 series with diesel.
Boy, seeing you keep showing up at the Beelygood property really gets old. i was glad the first time when the damn pond was FINALLY complete!
Must be very annoying when the Concrete Guys turn up in their Dodge Hemi Chargers to quote for the job and block all your machinery in ...
Thank you Chris! Great video and your commentary is informative and entertaining. 👏🏻👍🏻🍀
Makes you wonder with such a small root ball on some of those trees, why they just don;t fall over sooner..didn't noticed the dog, til just seconds after you mentioned it, and then I saw him, running up on the left side..good job taking the trees down. funny that you took sown some, and then the owner wanted to you take down a few more, cause she didn't like em. LOL.
You taking down so much trees, you should start wearing plaid
Alright, for once we got to see Chris wrangling a chainsaw on a tree to get it down where he wants it to go.
I myself would like to see Chris using his chainsaw more.
That's definitely gonna be a nice pasture when he's finished with it and some real happy horses not to mention the property owner.
Good morning Chris
Those trees U was talking about are gum trees and not pine trees
