$600 was pretty cheap without knowing more about the job i suppose. Pretty flat ground with just a few decent sized trees was an easy job but its location would be a major price factor. If Andrew only had to drive a pretty short distance, that could also be considered in his price. If someone had to load up and drive an hour away , then it was not worth that. If he just had a few miles to drive, maybe it was an easy $600 for him to make. Not to mention the guy will call him back to do other jobs since he wasnt gouged by Andrew.
So basically you and the machine were getting paid very little per hr. Not worth getting out of bed for $600 especially with moving equipment to the job site.
I'm with you at $1,500. I left land work 17 years ago and we were $125 to haul equipment to the jobsite, then $75/hr for equipment time with 8hr minimum. So that would be a $725 day rate many years ago. Given the passage of time and everything has doubled since covid, I'd say a $1,500 day rate would honestly be low. At face value, that sounds like a lot to me as an individual who works hard for my paycheck. But as a business man who needs to turn a profit, this equipment isn't cheap to purchase & maintain. So, I'd bet $1,500 is actually a low day rate when you run the numbers.
You inspired me to start my own business. After years of working for companies. I usually stick to a minimum daily price of $1200 unless it's a multiple day job that is hard to pin down how much time,then I charge hourly. Most jobs I bid a straight price for like septic systems, underground gutter drainage, utilities or footings.
Brush cutting is one application where it's really nice to have a closed cab with air filtration and A/C. It's cooler, quieter, and it's a whole lot less scary when running over and really pissing off wasp's nests. Great video as always Andrew.
I think you're referring to those in-ground yellow jackets, those are a pain, I had them attack my kitchen window because I turned on the kitchen light at 3AM, I used a fence post and about a quart of gasoline poured it into the hole, problem solved, surprised they attack at night
@@tedmitchell226 In ground yellow jackets suck, they're very easily set off. Vibrations will drive them them crazy. I remember as a kid, grandma got stung mowing the back 40 and grandpa was pissed, as she came across a really active and large nest. We waited until evening and he poured 5 gallons of unleaded in that hole and dropped in a road flare, and lit it up. It burned for hours, but no more yellow jackets. Problem solved.
Awesome video! Caught a glimpse of Samantha again in the background while you were replacing the water pump. Hopefully a good sign. We’re starting to hate those solar farms which are really invading upstate farmland. They are made in China and difficult to recycle. I believe tax credits are the main reason for the expansion in use.

Great episode, Andrew! Consider establishing base daily rates for all of your equipment, transportation and labor. For example: Takeuchi $500; brush cutter $150; labor $300; transportation (truck, trailer, fuel) either mileage .75+ or a zone Like UPS $100, $150, $200. Look at rental rates from local equip and they always have a delivery fee, etc for comparison. Your $600 was about half of other comments and probably close to a tractor/brush hog rental and I doubt he could have buzzed down those cedar/junipers.
@@markborishkevich587 oh, so you're that guy with a overgrown yard full of equipment. Whats up! always wanted to meet you in person, would love to buy some of that equipment, but i know you'll overcharge for it. xD

I agree ! I watched a handful of excavating and land clearing channels because it's what I do for work everyday and I love it ! But I notice all the channels on here that got huge no longer go on jobsites anymore because of the youtube money I guess and m going on different jobsites and homes in different parts of the country is what made me like the channels to begin with . Don't get me wrong still love the videos it's just they all go a different direction once they get youtube money and can just pick and choose and work on their own stuff at home
@@rirebel6029 I agree and started watching years ago for the land clearing and job site work. But now most of the videos are not about getting work as a business which is less interesting to me.
Great job, Andrew. That brush cutter is a beast. Looks like it is well made, and you've proven it can handle just about anything. I think you under priced the job given all that you did. $1000 -1,200.
Yeah, if I were on the customer end of that transaction, I would expect it to cost in the neighborhood of $1000.00. That was a lot of trees and area. Not having to cut the trees with a chain saw was a huge time/labor saver.
As far as you sad you want to build another shed at the castle, you could add solar panels, also a couple of trickle chargers for the machines so you don't have to deal with dead batteries so often.
Solar is going to do a whole lot more than that - DIY solar means your payback would likely be 4-6 years. On my smaller array the payback is going to be under 5 years, in Michigan. Highly recommend for anyone who likes to DIY and has a new roof / is building a new roof as that's half the battle already.
@@whattheschmidt My array is not massive - couldnt tell you the specs but it was about 15k and brings in 23kwh on a bad day. It's only been 18 months and I havent had to pay for utilities for over a year - infact on my last statment i was in credit with the utilities board by thousands. It will have payed itself off within 3 years and thats running a large household
oh solar panels for keeping big 12v batteries charged is *chefs kiss* it doesn't have to be thousands of dollars worth of panels or connected to the larger grid either, I've kept ATV's and motorcycles charged with a little 12" panel chilling on the seat just fine. but yeah if he went ahead and installed 12v DC in conduit within his dozer barn then like, game over on ever needing to replace dead batteries on huge pieces of equipment and that alone would probably pay for itself quickly because those huge ones are the prices of used cars sometimes...per battery and they'll need two or four of em.
The problem with pricing up a job like this is that if everything went acording to plan, $600-$800 is good money, but if he was to snap a hose off, damage a blade to the point where it required replacement and a track fell off and got chewed up, then all of a suden its an immediate loss.
@@jonathancook4022 With the inflation your profit is burned down quickly!parts price almost double up !you cross your fingers for not too big surprises!
The brush hog does a good job most of the disk mulchers claim to be high or low flow but are pretty useless without high flow. Rates for doing equipment work seems to have went through the roof and he probably was getting quotes to have it mulched and was probably getting numbers in the 1500-2500 range so 600 probably was a great deal for him
Around my area for a cat 299 with an actual high flo forestry mulcher it's 250 an hour and normally a 2 or 4 hour minimum . The machine is 120k and a good mulcher is 30 to 50k so its not a cheap setup . If it's just small stuff and a brush hog can handle it there are all kinds of guys with compact tractors for 50 an hour
@@rirebel6029 You forgot to figure in purchasing the truck and trailer. Add in travel time and other associated delivery costs. Getting equipment to the job site can cost as much as running the equipment on a small job.
@@alanbierhoff6831 yeah 💯 percent , fuel and insurance are a huge bill! Thats why they figure 4 hours then you can actually make a buck doing it anything less than that it's not worth hauling my machine there..... NORMALLY ! however if toy go check out the job and figure this is just the doorway to a lot more work on the property or if you can catch a neighbor that wants some work done too then you can make the small jobs ( 2 hours or whatever ) work for you .

Most brush cutters have a catch for wire now. Mine hasn't let anything past it after about 300 hours. It's just a few hooks on top of the stump jumper to catch wire if you run over it. Works great. You could probably buy or fab some up to weld on to what you have.
Hi Andrew, I am an 80 yearold wheel chair jock and just love the careful way you handle your machinery.I worked in a similar manner and loved getting the adrenaline of the job. I remember one night back in the day one of my trucks broke down so I jumped in a truck with a few tools on a rescue mission. Unfortunately my driver and I could not fix the problem and all we had was 5 yards of rope, but we got home quite quickly. A few days later I broke down and my driver turned up without tools and the same 5 yards of rope. His revenge was sweet, driving with a less than 5 yard gap at crazy speed. We got home safely and laughed about it for many years. Enjoy what you do and stay safe.
That clearing job was right up your alley. Rip, tear, bust. I think that solar is well worth installing where I live, as I only have a basic home installation and it more that supplies my home needs. The best aspect is that when you use Solar with a battery system, you don't have to worry about loss of mains power at all, ad if tied back into the grid, you can make a reasonable profit.
I appreciate hearing the mower chop all that stuff down without the music, or the fastforwarding. I love the sound of the machinery, and watching the machine work. G-d bless.
Hi Andrew, great video again! Am a German viewer who has been watching your videos for years. You said $600 for the entire area! Just compared to where I live here, you have to get a permit from the city for EVERY tree that needs to be felled. Each permit costs €60 for each tree. Clearing this area would cost an additional €4,000 - €5,000 ... yup! here in Germany something is going wrong...
Thats the way this world sadly has turned out. Everything is so highly priced so that ppl will soon have to stop ordering things done. Andrew was cheap tho...I live in Norway and it´s crazy prices here too. A standard car is priced almost double in Norway compared to Sweden, and it´s all just taxes.
@@AndrewCamarata It is excessive force (Government>/ City counsil) telling you that you need a permit. No permit, no license to do the job. Next fase is Police and hefty fines...
Das stimmt so nicht ganz, Forst, Industrie und Außengebiete sind anders als Wohngebiete, zudem kann man eine Genehmigung für ein ganzes Flurgrundstück beantragen
Your right Andrew about using the space under the panels as a shed or any kind of space. We have tons of Solar Rooves, Car Ports, Sheds here in Arizona with all the sun we get. I would definitely grab a few panels and also make a battery array to store energy when the sun isn't out(or for an emergerncy). Would love to see you put your own system together on the channel.
@@UserName92149Goats are better than sheep for this application. If you have neighbors with either, contract with their owners to “borrow or rent” their flock for weed eradication.
Problem with that is nowadays most utility companies don't pay diddly squat for power being sold back, it is typically not worth creating more power than you personally use. Not sure about in New York where this guy is located though.
@@ShuhDonk No, the real problem with that is today the utility maybe pays a reasonable amount, but at any time without warning, some bean counter will change their mind and start paying nothing for power exported back to the grid - and now you have the capitol investment of the panels and associated equipment, and can't get a return on it again. Not smart to put some much faith in rando corporate types to continue doing something reasonable.
Andrew, your channel is the best, in RUclips, after watching you for so many years. I miss not been able to work anymore. But I have to say, you had the best parents, that have been behind you all the way.
Hi Andrew. Having your brother to help you with the trailer was a nice touch. If you had told us the size of the area, it would have been over $1500 for your next-door neighbor. Have good days!
This guy is crazy to be running these attachments with an open cab machine , love the videos man dont want to see you get taken out by a stick or some barbed wire that you didnt see and come into the cab !!! I do this everyday and they launch some wild stuff out
Nice rig. We wanted to clear some land like that and we rented a Bobcat with a mulching head made by a company called Fecon. It was a drum style head with carbide inserts. The head was the width of the Bobcat and had 9 cutters mounted vertically with maybe 8 inserts per drum. It was a BEAST. The guy at the rental shop said that it's his best machine for clearing land because it throws the mulch straight down into the soil and continuously recuts until it's so small and lays on the ground. And it doesn't matter what size tree you hit. You just keep grinding at it until it's sawdust. Amazing piece of kit
yep , this brush hog you have is a 'beast , i remember a few years ago when you got it and this thing iv watched you use it many times and it still amazes me .. i had a 6 ft on back of my tractor and it would take down 3in saplings but not like yours .. thanks for the entertaining video , steve
Depending on your area, I'd say one to one and a half thousand is about for something of that size. I mean, you're clearing about a quarter acre of solid brush and small trees. That guy got a very good deal.

My hometown put in a solar array years ago. Its been a great investment for the community. They even hire a farmer to bring goats in to mow around them so they dont have to worry about damages from thrown debris.
Once again Andrew's instincts on what the audience wants to see are right on target. Excellent, excellent video. The only change I would make is more narration on the part of Andrew.
ANDREW BEEN WATCHING YOUR CHAN. FOR BEFORE YOU BUILT YOUR CASTLE. I'VE LEARNED ALOT FROM YOU BSELF EDUCATING YOURSELF. YOU LIVE IN A VERY BEAUTIFUL PART OF OR COUNTRY. KEEP POSTING I'LL KEEP LIKING AND LEARNING.
My sister has solar panels on one side of her roof. She said in ten years it will have paid for itself. Plus she has a plug-in hybrid hook up in the garage. She loves it!!
I'd say 600 is way too cheap. You pushed that mower hard! What an impressive unit. I'd have said a 3k min with all those trees. I'm honestly surprised the mower mulched up all those big trees. I say 3k aud, maybe 2k usd
Hi Andrew, hope you're well. I'm a big tree fan so don't like to see felling, but I reckon some folk call it progress. Great job on the clearance though. Lots of farms have started to combine solar arrays with crops, where the ground maintenance gear, like your skidsteer and other farming machinery, can operate under the panels without any problem. Sounds good. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep up the good work. 👍✌
Great vid! The wire getting wrapped around the blades reminds me of my time in the Army driving Bradley's. We used to have to cut out hundred foot sections of concertina wire from the road wheels haha!
Solar Panels are what you need on the Mountain. 1 or 2 rows like he had would give you power. Cloudy days would be the only draw back.Seamed like a fairly easy set up and if you made them higher you could get a few things out of the weather. Throw some sides around how ever many and you'll have small sheds with power. Take a bit to recoup the costs, but offset the fuel for generators and it might make it reasonable. Would be way less costly than running a mainline for electricity, at least for now.
Excellent job Andrew! Thanks for your videos. I think it was a cheap job, but you have made a great video for us, your fans, and I would think it would be faster if the blades could be sharpened more. Thanks again!
1600-2000 in this area. A large landscape co here would never touched it for under 3000 easy. You could have not even rented the equipment here for 400-600. He was blessed to have found you. You will still make your money cause I could sit here all day watching you mow.
I really admire your skill in repairing all vehicle breakdowns and your courage and determination to face all difficulties, but my advice to you is not to rush and be careful when using this equipment
Hey for the air cleaner on the tl10 and tl12 there is a little yellow lever on the bottom right of the housing if you put it up the filter housing will fold up to make it easier to replace the filters
So glad you shared what you quoted the customer because I was wondering how you charge for that work. I was thinking $1200-2000. When you said $600 I was shocked! That’s a great deal for the customer! Excellent vid as usual Andrew
That would be the right way to do it too. That machine is not made to "mulch" 8" pine logs. Yeah, it worked here. For now. That mulcher is not going to last at that rate and it won't pay for itself. I would have left the larger caliper pines and price the job stating that. If there were above 5" or so caliper trees, those would get left or cost more to take out and stack up somewhere.
You're are a true artist, and fair. Hoping you're customers are gratefull, and you always remain well talked about. No, solar is essential, if only remaining off grid. Look forward to new panels, batteries etc. every decade. Plus they get damaged alot. Thanks for the video Cheers
Some brushed cutters come with a wire and vine cutter near the shaft. I have one from Rut mfg that has the wire cutter. You could probably look up a few pictures and weld one on.
I was thinking that this was going to be a $1000 job when you started. Solar panels are pretty good. We installed just 2 of them on a shipping container workshop. It is enough to power the lights , fans and battery chargers. I think they paid for themselves already.
Thanks for sharing, as always. Pricing is hard to comment on without knowing how long you expected it to take, a reasonable hourly rate for you and your equipment, and how busy you are but... if it just cost you $50. for diesel, not much wear on your equipment, and you had nothing better to do that day it more than paid for the new water pump and put money in your pocket. If you're happy with the deal that's all that matters... and good content you've shared.

Solar Panels make a hell of a lot of power Andrew and i see Samantha in this video....Hope things going good with her & you...Thanks Andrew 👍👍 Old Shoe🇺🇸
NIce job! Amazing what that will cut through! If you think you may have charged a little on the low side the mower company should probably give you an endorsement for showing what a great product they have.
Here in Twin Waters Queensland Australia, the government subsidies homeowners to have solar power installed, with either battery storage or feed back into the grid. Whatever excess power you generate and don’t use, is feed back to the grid and you get paid a set tariff. On our four bedroom home with four adults, our twenty four panels on a six kilowatt system has us around six hundred dollars per quarter in credit, definitely worth it.
I was thinking that you would have charged $1,500 -$2 Grand for the job. When I heard $600 I was surprised! Making a bid for the right amount is an art. With time, you will get better at it! Thanks for sharing Andrew!
Yes, Andrew, $600 seems pretty low, considering how much time you spent shredding down the trees, and running your machine. How much diesel did it consume? Thanks for your productions and showing your unique ways of dealing with mechanical obstacles!
It's hard to say if it's too much or not b/c we don't know the total number of hours that it took him to complete it. In my area, skid steer work is $100/hour. So as long as he was under 5 or 6 hours, then it would be a fair price around here.

Hi Andrew great to see another video, as to the solar its around 25 years you get out of them basically no maintenance , you need to balance your battery storage with the panels you have, its an investment for sure but if you get a half decent amount of sun 🌞 it's probably worth it ,its definitely worth looking into.
I have 14 of 4x6 panels on roof of my home and a battery bank (auto transfer switch jumps to batteries if grid goes down). Also has socket to plug in generator if you like that vs battery bank. We sell electricity to our supplier from about May to October. Bill runs $26/month during that period, then we used banked power credits into the winter during heating season. Highest bill last winter was about $120. We have heat pump and climate is mild (pacific northwest, right on the coast). I would recommend these to anyone living such hell holes as Texas, where the electric companies are all privately owned and known gougers.
build your sheds for your detachable equipment then mount your solar on top. also, you can use that power on trickle chargers on your big equipment. will save you battery money and time from jumping them when needed. you already have the shed with the lift so test it {price, install, etc.}and decide from there. systems are easy to expand.
That machine is awesome! The first time I saw one used was on some land that Lee and Tiffany had purchased to enhance for deer hunting and then resale the land. The operator went up to a big cedar tree, started from the top and ate it down to the ground! I knew right then that was a tough piece of equipment and the way to get it done!
Man that brush cutter is a hoss. 600 bucks seems like a reasonable price especially when you have the perfect piece of equipment for the job. Land clearing outfits can get pretty pricey depending on the area and what all equipment they have to bring for the job so I think you just earned a repeat customer for the future, helluva job Andrew.
$600 is way to low, but since he has a YT channel it makes up for the difference. Probably between the Skid loader & the brush hog its about $40K in equipment. Another $10K for the trailer used to haul the skid loader to the site. Usually daily rates is $1000/day (or more) per machine\operator.
Thanks for letting us know the price, I was wondering about 5 minutes before you mentioned it. I would have charged $300 per hour, I would have likely charged some setup fee as well for fuel and loading. I think $600 was a super fair deal and it was a good video so you make some content and money off that as well.
Andrew, your castle home roof would be a perfect place for solar panels... and after saying that, if you get your long shed built, the solar panels would provide more power than you'd ever need there (with proper battery storage). Our church invested in a solar system in 2015. It was making us money from day one. It was paid off about 2 years ago and its life expectancy is about 30 years. Panel degradation at the time of installation was about 10% over the life of the panels. That's gotten a bit better over time. Our panels are 250w each. Now, the same size panel is pushing nearly 400w. Things are getting better, I think you'd be very pleased if you were to make that kind of investment on your property. Thanks for your time. Be well, be safe!

But I notice all the channels on here that got huge no longer go on jobsites anymore because of the youtube money I guess and m going on different jobsites and homes in different parts of the country is what made me like the channels to begin with . Don't get me wrong still love the videos it's just they all go a different direction once they get youtube money and can just pick and choose and work on their own stuff at home

@@rirebel6029 I agree and started watching years ago for the land clearing and job site work. But now most of the videos are not about getting work as a business which is less interesting to me.
Great job, Andrew. That brush cutter is a beast. Looks like it is well made, and you've proven it can handle just about anything.
I think you under priced the job given all that you did. $1000 -1,200.
Yeah, if I were on the customer end of that transaction, I would expect it to cost in the neighborhood of $1000.00. That was a lot of trees and area. Not having to cut the trees with a chain saw was a huge time/labor saver.
Yeah but think of it in the long run, andrew may now have a repeat customer for future projects.
yeah definitely undercharged by half at least
cheapest I can get someone to clean up my quarter acre yard is roughly 800 bucks
All depends on the amount of time. Great job!
That editing folding up trailer ramps seeing 2 Andrew’s was great! Happy seeing Yamaha TW200 is alive and well
As far as you sad you want to build another shed at the castle, you could add solar panels, also a couple of trickle chargers for the machines so you don't have to deal with dead batteries so often.
Solar is going to do a whole lot more than that - DIY solar means your payback would likely be 4-6 years. On my smaller array the payback is going to be under 5 years, in Michigan. Highly recommend for anyone who likes to DIY and has a new roof / is building a new roof as that's half the battle already.
@@whattheschmidt My array is not massive - couldnt tell you the specs but it was about 15k and brings in 23kwh on a bad day. It's only been 18 months and I havent had to pay for utilities for over a year - infact on my last statment i was in credit with the utilities board by thousands. It will have payed itself off within 3 years and thats running a large household
oh solar panels for keeping big 12v batteries charged is *chefs kiss*
it doesn't have to be thousands of dollars worth of panels or connected to the larger grid either, I've kept ATV's and motorcycles charged with a little 12" panel chilling on the seat just fine.
but yeah if he went ahead and installed 12v DC in conduit within his dozer barn then like, game over on ever needing to replace dead batteries on huge pieces of equipment and that alone would probably pay for itself quickly because those huge ones are the prices of used cars sometimes...per battery and they'll need two or four of em.
What about having those solar panel’s and hail storms? Here in Oklahoma we can get baseball, softball and grapefruit size hail storms in the spring.
@@mp5kfisher241 worth thinking about it, where I live there is very rare hailstorm, last year there were 2 showers with pea size.
Nice job Andrew! 600 seemed low considering all the trees you took down in the process.
The problem with pricing up a job like this is that if everything went acording to plan, $600-$800 is good money, but if he was to snap a hose off, damage a blade to the point where it required replacement and a track fell off and got chewed up, then all of a suden its an immediate loss.

Blue is catching up but Cody is a marathon dog lol.
100% correct!
The brush hog does a good job most of the disk mulchers claim to be high or low flow but are pretty useless without high flow. Rates for doing equipment work seems to have went through the roof and he probably was getting quotes to have it mulched and was probably getting numbers in the 1500-2500 range so 600 probably was a great deal for him
Around my area for a cat 299 with an actual high flo forestry mulcher it's 250 an hour and normally a 2 or 4 hour minimum . The machine is 120k and a good mulcher is 30 to 50k so its not a cheap setup . If it's just small stuff and a brush hog can handle it there are all kinds of guys with compact tractors for 50 an hour
@@rirebel6029
You forgot to figure in purchasing the truck and trailer. Add in travel time and other associated delivery costs. Getting equipment to the job site can cost as much as running the equipment on a small job.
I was watching and thought that would be a $1,500 job, minimum.
@@alanbierhoff6831 yeah 💯 percent , fuel and insurance are a huge bill! Thats why they figure 4 hours then you can actually make a buck doing it anything less than that it's not worth hauling my machine there..... NORMALLY ! however if toy go check out the job and figure this is just the doorway to a lot more work on the property or if you can catch a neighbor that wants some work done too then you can make the small jobs ( 2 hours or whatever ) work for you .
@@alanbierhoff6831 thats why the skid steers are so wildly popular all you need is a 1 ton and a equipment trailer to move it and if you're In a pinch you can call a local tow company to move your machine for you pretty cheap especially if you worked with the company b4 they give you a deal knowing you will call them again in the future
Most brush cutters have a catch for wire now. Mine hasn't let anything past it after about 300 hours. It's just a few hooks on top of the stump jumper to catch wire if you run over it. Works great. You could probably buy or fab some up to weld on to what you have.
6:21 in the video there is a yellow lever under the air filter. Push that and the filter housing will tilt up making it easier to install new filters
That's a pro tip for sure!
Ha he will just pry on it and break it so he can make a video
Hi Andrew, I am an 80 yearold wheel chair jock and just love the careful way you handle your machinery.I worked in a similar manner and loved getting the adrenaline of the job. I remember one night back in the day one of my trucks broke down so I jumped in a truck with a few tools on a rescue mission. Unfortunately my driver and I could not fix the problem and all we had was 5 yards of rope, but we got home quite quickly. A few days later I broke down and my driver turned up without tools and the same 5 yards of rope. His revenge was sweet, driving with a less than 5 yard gap at crazy speed. We got home safely and laughed about it for many years. Enjoy what you do and stay safe.
Yup. I'm 79 and miss my construction work days.
@jacksak
The tools to day are unbelievable.
Ever since we went to the moon are world has changed.
Hello from Siesta Key Florida
Andrew, looks like you have found a machine as tough as you are. Enjoyed your video.
That brush cutter attachment is amazing. Great job Andrew.
That clearing job was right up your alley. Rip, tear, bust.
I think that solar is well worth installing where I live, as I only have a basic home installation and it more that supplies my home needs. The best aspect is that when you use Solar with a battery system, you don't have to worry about loss of mains power at all, ad if tied back into the grid, you can make a reasonable profit.
I appreciate hearing the mower chop all that stuff down without the music, or the fastforwarding. I love the sound of the machinery, and watching the machine work. G-d bless.
Hi Andrew, great video again! Am a German viewer who has been watching your videos for years. You said $600 for the entire area! Just compared to where I live here, you have to get a permit from the city for EVERY tree that needs to be felled. Each permit costs €60 for each tree. Clearing this area would cost an additional €4,000 - €5,000 ... yup! here in Germany something is going wrong...
Thats the way this world sadly has turned out. Everything is so highly priced so that ppl will soon have to stop ordering things done. Andrew was cheap tho...I live in Norway and it´s crazy prices here too. A standard car is priced almost double in Norway compared to Sweden, and it´s all just taxes.
Wow... Sometimes I feel we should deregulate a bit in the EU.
Why do you tolerate letting anyone tell you you need a permit to take down trees? you should go shut that down immediately using excessive force.
@@AndrewCamarata It is excessive force (Government>/ City counsil) telling you that you need a permit. No permit, no license to do the job. Next fase is Police and hefty fines...
Das stimmt so nicht ganz, Forst, Industrie und Außengebiete sind anders als Wohngebiete, zudem kann man eine Genehmigung für ein ganzes Flurgrundstück beantragen
Your right Andrew about using the space under the panels as a shed or any kind of space. We have tons of Solar Rooves, Car Ports, Sheds here in Arizona with all the sun we get. I would definitely grab a few panels and also make a battery array to store energy when the sun isn't out(or for an emergerncy). Would love to see you put your own system together on the channel.
I'd get some sheep. No more mowing.

He sells the power to the utility.
Problem with that is nowadays most utility companies don't pay diddly squat for power being sold back, it is typically not worth creating more power than you personally use. Not sure about in New York where this guy is located though.
@@ShuhDonk No, the real problem with that is today the utility maybe pays a reasonable amount, but at any time without warning, some bean counter will change their mind and start paying nothing for power exported back to the grid - and now you have the capitol investment of the panels and associated equipment, and can't get a return on it again. Not smart to put some much faith in rando corporate types to continue doing something reasonable.
@@gorak9000 You can also supply to your neighbours.

Andrew, your channel is the best, in RUclips, after watching you for so many years. I miss not been able to work anymore. But I have to say, you had the best parents, that have been behind you all the way.
Thanks
I knew there were two of you, no one man can do everything you do. Made me have to re-watch that part twice, nice.
It is great how Andrew tests the limits if his equipment. You can really learn how much more you can get out of your equipment.
He needs to take more water with ever he's drinking. Stupid Stunts, will end in tears.
I love the videos but absolutely destroys his equipment
Tool better be rock solid when Andrew uses them
They’d better be able to do every bit of what they are rated for, because he’s going to push them far beyond that haha.
I love how you test your equipment, Andrew the brush cutter test ranks up there with your bumper testing. Great video.
Hi Andrew. Having your brother to help you with the trailer was a nice touch. If you had told us the size of the area, it would have been over $1500 for your next-door neighbor. Have good days!
It's a beast Andrew, without doubt one of your best buys.
The footage of the dogs running together, oh my God amazing. Keep up the great work and thank you for the content
This guy is crazy to be running these attachments with an open cab machine , love the videos man dont want to see you get taken out by a stick or some barbed wire that you didnt see and come into the cab !!! I do this everyday and they launch some wild stuff out
Mower decks are wicked cool.
You make the best videos on Utube with equipment variety, job variety, dog running, and great editing. Enjoy every episode.
Under the air filter housing you'll find a latch. It lets the filter housing hinge upwards and gives better access to replace the filters.
Nice rig. We wanted to clear some land like that and we rented a Bobcat with a mulching head made by a company called Fecon. It was a drum style head with carbide inserts. The head was the width of the Bobcat and had 9 cutters mounted vertically with maybe 8 inserts per drum. It was a BEAST. The guy at the rental shop said that it's his best machine for clearing land because it throws the mulch straight down into the soil and continuously recuts until it's so small and lays on the ground. And it doesn't matter what size tree you hit. You just keep grinding at it until it's sawdust. Amazing piece of kit
yep , this brush hog you have is a 'beast , i remember a few years ago when you got it and this thing iv watched you use it
many times and it still amazes me .. i had a 6 ft on back of my tractor and it would take down 3in saplings but not like yours .. thanks for the entertaining video , steve
Depending on your area, I'd say one to one and a half thousand is about for something of that size. I mean, you're clearing about a quarter acre of solid brush and small trees. That guy got a very good deal.

More great viewing from Andrew.
Repair / fixing / problem solving always enjoyable !
My hometown put in a solar array years ago. Its been a great investment for the community. They even hire a farmer to bring goats in to mow around them so they dont have to worry about damages from thrown debris.
Andrew, that is one hell of a strong machine you got there. Sometimes one really good machine makes up for a couple junk ones…haha!
This is freedom, u are always doing a great job. Looks so much fun and relaxing at the same time 🎉! Greetings from Sweden

Doesn't need more narration. In fact the lack of narration is nice, people talk too much.
I'm impressed with that cutter. I had no idea it would cut 8" trees as good as it was doing.
Dang that mower left a mark on that old vehicle.

My sister has solar panels on one side of her roof. She said in ten years it will have paid for itself. Plus she has a plug-in hybrid hook up in the garage. She loves it!!
I could watch andrew 24/7 because his content is so enjoyable, keep up the good work
I'd say 600 is way too cheap. You pushed that mower hard! What an impressive unit.
I'd have said a 3k min with all those trees. I'm honestly surprised the mower mulched up all those big trees. I say 3k aud, maybe 2k usd
and he got steel wire prank by customer to as a bonus? maybe?
The mulching tree mower is some craziness!
Hi Andrew, hope you're well. I'm a big tree fan so don't like to see felling, but I reckon some folk call it progress. Great job on the clearance though. Lots of farms have started to combine solar arrays with crops, where the ground maintenance gear, like your skidsteer and other farming machinery, can operate under the panels without any problem. Sounds good. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep up the good work. 👍✌
Great vid! The wire getting wrapped around the blades reminds me of my time in the Army driving Bradley's. We used to have to cut out hundred foot sections of concertina wire from the road wheels haha!
Solar Panels are what you need on the Mountain. 1 or 2 rows like he had would give you power. Cloudy days would be the only draw back.Seamed like a fairly easy set up and if you made them higher you could get a few things out of the weather. Throw some sides around how ever many and you'll have small sheds with power. Take a bit to recoup the costs, but offset the fuel for generators and it might make it reasonable. Would be way less costly than running a mainline for electricity, at least for now.
Excellent job Andrew! Thanks for your videos.
I think it was a cheap job, but you have made a great video for us, your fans, and I would think it would be faster if the blades could be sharpened more. Thanks again!
That is a beast of a mower, except for that heavy gage wire that got tangled in the cutters, she looked unbreakable.
1600-2000 in this area. A large landscape co here would never touched it for under 3000 easy. You could have not even rented the equipment here for 400-600. He was blessed to have found you. You will still make your money cause I could sit here all day watching you mow.
I really admire your skill in repairing all vehicle breakdowns and your courage and determination to face all difficulties, but my advice to you is not to rush and be careful when using this equipment
Great video as always Andrew; I learned some stuff on this one. Nice to see your clone help you with those flip-up trailer ramps! That was clever.
Hey for the air cleaner on the tl10 and tl12 there is a little yellow lever on the bottom right of the housing if you put it up the filter housing will fold up to make it easier to replace the filters
Ah, Andrew working with his doppelganger. That's teamwork. 😉
So glad you shared what you quoted the customer because I was wondering how you charge for that work. I was thinking $1200-2000. When you said $600 I was shocked! That’s a great deal for the customer! Excellent vid as usual Andrew
That was a very low bid for that work
@@OShackHennessy for sure!
Thank you for sharing Andrew. You may have underbid a little but you gain another clientele on your business list.
Most people would have looked at that job and been like “well I’m gonna need to chainsaw down and process these trees” Andrew just rips through them😂
I laughed pretty good at that big pine, and kept saying 'thats not what that's meant for' lol
What trees lol just big weeds 😂
True 😂
That would be the right way to do it too. That machine is not made to "mulch" 8" pine logs. Yeah, it worked here. For now. That mulcher is not going to last at that rate and it won't pay for itself. I would have left the larger caliper pines and price the job stating that. If there were above 5" or so caliper trees, those would get left or cost more to take out and stack up somewhere.
Every time he came to a tree, I was like, "ain't no way he's gonna... oh shit he did it"!
You're are a true artist, and fair.
Hoping you're customers are gratefull, and you always remain well talked about.
No, solar is essential, if only remaining off grid.
Look forward to new panels, batteries etc. every decade. Plus they get damaged alot.
Thanks for the video
Cheers
Some brushed cutters come with a wire and vine cutter near the shaft. I have one from Rut mfg that has the wire cutter. You could probably look up a few pictures and weld one on.
That's the best use of a brush mower I've seen so far, awesome! That thing can really cut.👍👍
$600 is a bit cheap. $800-900 would be fair. But thats why we love you. Great job and no bs prices!
I was thinking that this was going to be a $1000 job when you started. Solar panels are pretty good. We installed just 2 of them on a shipping container workshop. It is enough to power the lights , fans and battery chargers. I think they paid for themselves already.
Andrew is probably going to need Solar for the Mountain build. Probably cost a small fortune to get power run to the home site.
What crops do they typically plant?
Thanks for sharing, as always. Pricing is hard to comment on without knowing how long you expected it to take, a reasonable hourly rate for you and your equipment, and how busy you are but... if it just cost you $50. for diesel, not much wear on your equipment, and you had nothing better to do that day it more than paid for the new water pump and put money in your pocket. If you're happy with the deal that's all that matters... and good content you've shared.

NIce job! Amazing what that will cut through! If you think you may have charged a little on the low side the mower company should probably give you an endorsement for showing what a great product they have.
Here in Twin Waters Queensland Australia, the government subsidies homeowners to have solar power installed, with either battery storage or feed back into the grid. Whatever excess power you generate and don’t use, is feed back to the grid and you get paid a set tariff. On our four bedroom home with four adults, our twenty four panels on a six kilowatt system has us around six hundred dollars per quarter in credit, definitely worth it.
Andrew, we want more videos. take it easy.good luck.
Make more videos but also take it easy…😂
it's funny how clean and decluttered it looks even though the amount of material on the field stays the same.
I was thinking that you would have charged $1,500 -$2 Grand for the job. When I heard $600 I was surprised! Making a bid for the right amount is an art. With time, you will get better at it! Thanks for sharing Andrew!
Yes, Andrew, $600 seems pretty low, considering how much time you spent shredding down the trees, and running your machine. How much diesel did it consume? Thanks for your productions and showing your unique ways of dealing with mechanical obstacles!
It's hard to say if it's too much or not b/c we don't know the total number of hours that it took him to complete it. In my area, skid steer work is $100/hour. So as long as he was under 5 or 6 hours, then it would be a fair price around here.
Humble quote for the job. From the beginning you never were greedy. Loved the dogs running, and the fix on the water-pump. Oh the bumper fix last week or so was awesome, especially the testing 👍 🇬🇧🇵🇰🇵🇸🇮🇪🕎✝️☪️💚🌍💚

Hi Andrew great to see another video, as to the solar its around 25 years you get out of them basically no maintenance , you need to balance your battery storage with the panels you have, its an investment for sure but if you get a half decent amount of sun 🌞 it's probably worth it ,its definitely worth looking into.
I have 14 of 4x6 panels on roof of my home and a battery bank (auto transfer switch jumps to batteries if grid goes down). Also has socket to plug in generator if you like that vs battery bank. We sell electricity to our supplier from about May to October. Bill runs $26/month during that period, then we used banked power credits into the winter during heating season. Highest bill last winter was about $120. We have heat pump and climate is mild (pacific northwest, right on the coast). I would recommend these to anyone living such hell holes as Texas, where the electric companies are all privately owned and known gougers.
build your sheds for your detachable equipment then mount your solar on top. also, you can use that power on trickle chargers on your big equipment. will save you battery money and time from jumping them when needed. you already have the shed with the lift so test it {price, install, etc.}and decide from there. systems are easy to expand.
That machine is awesome! The first time I saw one used was on some land that Lee and Tiffany had purchased to enhance for deer hunting and then resale the land. The operator went up to a big cedar tree, started from the top and ate it down to the ground! I knew right then that was a tough piece of equipment and the way to get it done!
Man that brush cutter is a hoss. 600 bucks seems like a reasonable price especially when you have the perfect piece of equipment for the job. Land clearing outfits can get pretty pricey depending on the area and what all equipment they have to bring for the job so I think you just earned a repeat customer for the future, helluva job Andrew.
$600 is way to low, but since he has a YT channel it makes up for the difference. Probably between the Skid loader & the brush hog its about $40K in equipment. Another $10K for the trailer used to haul the skid loader to the site.
Usually daily rates is $1000/day (or more) per machine\operator.
Thanks for letting us know the price, I was wondering about 5 minutes before you mentioned it. I would have charged $300 per hour, I would have likely charged some setup fee as well for fuel and loading. I think $600 was a super fair deal and it was a good video so you make some content and money off that as well.
It's going to be hard to get the new windshield in that truck now 😂

Andrew, your castle home roof would be a perfect place for solar panels... and after saying that, if you get your long shed built, the solar panels would provide more power than you'd ever need there (with proper battery storage). Our church invested in a solar system in 2015. It was making us money from day one. It was paid off about 2 years ago and its life expectancy is about 30 years. Panel degradation at the time of installation was about 10% over the life of the panels. That's gotten a bit better over time. Our panels are 250w each. Now, the same size panel is pushing nearly 400w. Things are getting better, I think you'd be very pleased if you were to make that kind of investment on your property. Thanks for your time. Be well, be safe!
600$ what aa deal at least 1200$ no way under a thousand bro. The work you do !!! Your a great guy man keep the videos coming love your WORK👊💯
