Nice lumber!... Hunter tuff feet!!! good job you guys!... thanks 4 video. be kind.
I haven’t gotten over the pine trees either. We never forget.
I like how you explain things that you do around your house. Gives me another perspective of doing things.
Mike you are doing a allsome job it looks good keep up the good work
What's great is riding next to Mike in the excavator, or walking beside Melissa on the trail, and being treated like a buddy, while they bounce options and ideas around. The intimacy of just hanging out, like neighbors, looks effortless, but is costly in "time overhead," and demands trust in the goodness of their audience. Super dry in Western Colorado, with the Grizzly Creek fire -- now 25,000 acres -- about 7 miles northwest of us. 525 personnel, 15 helicopters, air-tankers dropping orange suppressant. High 93, today, super-dry, winds 5mph out of NW. Gratitude and love for hotshot crews from all over US.
Inspector Hunter is on the job!! Keep an eye on the project, it’s a big responsibility! Thank you for the video!
Nice Walnut tree= Good milled lumber .... Walnut reseeds itself easily, and the squirrels help, they only find half of the nuts they bury ... I watch them bury walnut out my kitchen window all late summer and fall ... then come over and eat all my sunflower seeds in the bird feeder ... I collect the walnuts in fall across the street and put them out in the winter near the feeder for them ... for every tree I take down I try to plant 2 to replace them, or at least help/protect saplings that will grow well in that location ...
First Walnut on the mill. 👍 Future video.
AWESOME JOB
Use the platform at the mini cabin. It will make a nice deck and make it more enjoyable.
I bet these videos of the Kubota KX-080 Excavator in action, will be in every dealership
Wow I am not the first one! Cool....
The old timers in Vt told me once why they dig a big hole before their giant 20-30ft culverts, is to stop the sediment from going into them. On the downside of them, they did the same, but with giant boulders about 50-75ft from the end. That's why they're so many awesome swimming holes, at least from where I am. Great fishing and great swimming !!
God Bless Y’all! Have a Day!👍❤️
Mike you have a huge project on ur hands , you have really stayed calm and focused Great Job 👍
Big hello to Hunter,from Australia 👍
I worked 32 years working on the road remodeling C stores.Had no kids and was divorced the last 22 years. That road was pretty long sometimes,retired now and enjoy working on my house and farms.
That Excavator pushes Dirt pretty Well !!👍👊
Sitting on the Porch! COLD BEER IN HAND! What a Great Way 2 Watch Mike do His Great Thing! Hello Hunter And MELISSA!
Oh my gosh, Hunter is tough as nails walking on the stones!! You ROCK Hunter 🌟!
I don't know why, but I find watching you prep this pad is so interesting. Thanks for filming and explaining.
Mike:. "boy you are in a mood tonight!"
Melissa:. Silence and, "the look"!
Okay, time to change the subject and move on to the next conversation! Well done, Mike! 😱😱😂😂
You guys are a scream! Thanks for putting a smile on my face during a full day of rain where I have not been able to get outside and do a thing. 😒
Lol 😂😂
I like that you dont waste things, I myself like to reuse, repurpose things when ever I can. "Waste Not, Want Not"
I love my 5 black walnut trees. Trimmed them last year. Oh yeah they are messy but in the summer they are beautiful. 2 of them have 32" trunks. Thanks kids for sharing your life. Grateful for your videos. God bless.
Man, your video production quality has come a long way! I’ve been following since almost the beginning and it’s been neat to watch your channel grow. Keep it up!
Even though that is a beautiful walnut tree while standing, it will also make equally beautiful lumber for any furniture or interior finishes in the new building.
Hunter could buid some furniture.
Mike, Im using your quote.Im no expert but if you could plant Grass or some type of ground cover it may prevent sediment from going in the pond. The ponds i have seen in my area have grass all around them and they have had no problems.Several of these ponds were surrounded by steep hills.
Good work guys and love the dogs and hello from Erie Pennsylvania. ✌️
Nice work Mike! I can see you have it!!
You know Mike what would be really cool would be a drive under storage from the drive way end , in other words build up the grade instead of shaving it down !
good job M&M
I love working with excavator grading and digging. Check it.
Good morning Morgan’s 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Bob agrees about the pond so now you can sleep at night about that one. Thanks so much for the constructive criticisms you make and the good videos of course.
Good morning everyone here from southern NH
Mike good luck with Melissa today 🤪
Good to see you Hunter, every job has to have a supervisor and you make a great one, keep them in line. Tractor on from west central Illinois
Much better music--thank you!
Excavators are amazing pieces of equipment, maybe just maybe I'll have one in the future. I could put one to work all the time
Good Sunday morning with a hot cup of coffee and an Outdoors with the Morgans video. Now headed to Rural King. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
great video thanks for sharing
Good morning Hunter from Holly Springs, Georgia. It's always good to see your wonderful smile!
Y'all need some rain bad. Wish we could send you come from NC, we have had an abundance this summer, need a couple of weeks of dry weather for a change. Mowing grass every 4 days to keep it from becoming a jungle. Great video of your hard work. Meanwhile, Tractor Time with Tim says every job is easy with the right equipment! Mike you run that Kubota like an expert. Good job on the tractor Melissa!
You all are knocking out a lot of work for just two people, great job!👍
Looking good! I'm with you the walnut tree should go. 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Understand that the big walnut has to come down, I am over it! No problem , do what you need to do, you have my permission! Lol
Pie Town Larry
Can't wait to see the shale.
Good morning from rainy northwest Ohio. I get the walnut thing. It’s a beautiful (but dirty) tree. The great thing is.......it’s beauty can live on through whatever you produce with the wood. And you can plant another with its fruit, that your family can enjoy in the future.
Great low angle camera work Melissa!
Good Morning Outdoorgans !
Melissa, I had to laugh when you said you had opinion about the pine tree but that didn't matter! Ha ha I have a husband like that. He asks for my opinion but really he pretty much does what he feels best. I have been married 47 yrs and he hasn't changed 😁. I used to think it was a Marine thing but maybe not!? 😆 😆
Its a Marine thing.
It's not a marine thing Eleanor.....sorry to say.
Can't wait to see what the building will look like when you get finished!!!
You've got the project under control. I would trust your judgement to build for me. So you follow what you want to do you're doing great. Have a wonderful weekend thanks for sharing
Thank goodness you moved the lumber pile finally. Lol. Hope all are well. Have a day.
Good morning Mike and Melissa, great video 👍👍 !! You’re doing a great job with your pond work and getting the foundation area ready for the Pool recreational barn. Thanks for sharing with us all that goes into restructuring a pond and safely choosing a secure building site and what goes into the building of it. Keep up the good work and videos.
Melissa and Mike .... Keep some logs from the walnut tree for tables and furniture in the new building ! At least you will have the tree live on as something else ! :-)
I had to have 3 huge white oaks and 1 walnut removed for my 36x48 building. The oaks were way to big for me to handle but I could have taken the walnut. Since I had the pros here they also cut the walnut and paid me a little.
Mike; love the way you explained the sediment issue, great content too
As a longtime woodworker i would hope if you end up cutting down the Walnut tree. Use your sawmill to process useable lumber instead of cutting it up for firewood. Just my opinion.
Of course!! Anything less would be a crime...Of course!! Anything less
would be a crime...
Back in the dark ages when I was in school we did experiments in science. One of those experiments was on erosion. It proved exactly what you described how the pond fills with sediment. Wow, and I remember that after all these years? Amazing!
That's how the state of Louisiana was formed too.
@@davidmorse8432 Yeah, no doubt...
It rained on and off through the nite till morning here in southeast Michigan it’s headed your way should be seeing it about now
2 ft of fill will buy a lot of walnut. That walnut is strait with few defects. The boards will be beautiful.
That walnut tree should make some beautiful lumber if you know someone who has a sawmill lol.
I am with you the tree should go or you will find later you wish you did and they are messy. Site is coming along nicely.
It was nice to see you lay out the barn it’s been along time since I’ve had to do that it was a great refresher course
I love that mood 🤣🤯😋
Mike you really need a 10 ft I-beam to grab in the center with the thumb to speed up the cleanup and grading. A huge rake like that makes the finished site perfect. Great job on everything.
Love watching you on that equipment Mike. Would be nice to see you working the controls😀 Melissa is doing a good job to❤❤
Don’t know why but I find these relaxing.
Mike is a pretty relaxed guy at least while he is working on big equipment!
Robert, that is why I call him Motor Mike!
The work on your hobby garage is progressing nicely Mr Morgan and I for one ☝️ am looking forward to seeing the footings as we as the sub foundations being laid, I also find that construction 🏗 work really interesting 🤔.
Good morning. Looking good and lots getting done with the excavator. Getting excited for some building to start.
If it was me i would of already took the walnut tree down for a lot of reasons! The biggest one you don't want it falling on the building!
And around here if you disturb the soil with in 10 feet of the tree they seem to die for some reason.
The walnuts are not as bad as the branches always falling out every time it storms. And my favorite reason is the beautiful lumber you can cut !!!! We have 3 massive walnuts in our yard and we need to take them down because if they fall they can hit the house and the garage and the greenhouse.!!!
And there not that close but close enough.!!! 😊😊😊👍👍👍👍💝
Hello Hunter 🍨😊
From Iowa!
Evan Kibbe i agree about the falling aspect. I just cut one down for the new shop on the property.
@@danielchambers1958 please don't cut it up for firewood. I know they need to come down when they're to close things. But there a nice tree if you don't mind dealing with the walnuts! We wash and crack them.
The worst part is i like to eat them but can't !! Was your tree a big one.
Evan Kibbe too late my friend.... I think it was an oak....I cannot identify trees, But I ordered a book😀
@@danielchambers1958 it happens.
At least it won't hurt your building.
Keep the great videos coming... from Latrobe Pa
Mike I think you will need to stake that log. For the settlement trap. Some 3 foot pieces of rebar would work well. God bless
Good morning Morgan's!! Wow, the garage/playhouse is going to be huge, but nice. Looking good!!
It’s nice you aren’t stripping topsoil in mud but it is a bit dry there. I’m thinking a little walnut trim in the new building might be nice. I wonder where you could get some of that? 😉
Seeing he’s in pa, tons of Amish up there. Find a shop with a moulder and bring them the wood and ask how much. It can be done cheapely sence you have the supplies already!
I like your new video today you did a good jop really good jop
Dry ready mix packed around a post IS the best way to set a post. It slowly absorbs moisture from the surrounding soil. If you add water, it shrinks away from the wood when it hardens, and then water can get into the gap and cause rot.
Mike, as a general contractor out here in Utah,I'm curious why not go to the low side which you say would need2 1/2 feet of fill.why not go to1 foot elevation dig flat to high side increase the height of foundation. I'm only recommending this as i don't know all the parameters and elevation changes. As long as you can maintain drainage away from the building this seems to be the easiest way to accomplish your building as well as the beautiful Melissa could keep her walnut tree. Keep up the great videos and tell
Hunter hi from the great state of Utah
Thanks Mike for including the bit about the sediment trap into this. Much appreciated. Another great video to start a Monday. :-)
good work like to wach you going good hi hunter&all god bless
Love watching you with the excavator. I have never run one, but would love to try it out. Keep up the good work...
I've put a ton of post in ground with just dry concrete mix, moisture in ground sets it. If what they said is true then that neglected bag of cement in storage shed would never harden.
Blessed are old people who plant trees knowing that they shall never sit in the shade of their foliage
Yes, I like that beattitude. Trees are precious and man should make every attempt to preserve them.
Mike please give us a quick lesson on how to shoot grade with the level. Thanks.
Mike, you should use a drone to give us in the audience a better view of the layout. We still have some mystery where the new building is relative to the house and street.
This old Arky wonders what you are going to do with the spillway for your pond.
I’ve been wondering the same thing.
Mike,
Your soil looks super sandy in the area that you are grading for the new building. Just an observation.
Sure is dry there, you need some of our rain, here in the East.
I love watching your videos with the excavator en tractor work. Greatings from the Netherlands
Great video Morgans. I have a pond with sediment issues and would be very interested in seeing more video of your sediment trap and how it looks when completed. Have a day and a week.
Maybe next time when you stack the lumber you put in 4x4 blocks every couple of feet high and if you need to move it again or get at certain boards near the bottom of the pile all you need to do is use the lumber forks on the tractor to move the lifts of lumber. Keep the lumber pile no more than 4 feet wide.
The excavator good size for work you are doing also use like small dozer for leveling
Take the walnut tree out and shift the building over now , that way you won't have to regret leaving the tree up in five years from now. I was in the same situation a few years ago and the tree that I left up got a good growth spurt after I cleared out the other trees in the area for the building. Walnuts hit roofs really hard when they fall !
Howdy Morgans, I'm with you the Walnut tree has to go. Don't know about yours but I have one left in my yard and it has a bumper crop this year. What a mess although the nefarious squirrels are fat and happy. Perhaps you can mill it and use the lumber in the building. Makes great firewood too. The dozer blade on the excavator is doing quite the job also. Enjoy your videos....perhaps next year we will see you excavating a pool for Melissa and Hunter....or is there a Christmas surprise.... an indoor pool in the "hobby barn"?? Have A Day! ;~)
Awe the wood is moved I can now see why it took you so long the pallet wasn't a pallet
Anything to take that Walnut Tree that Melissa wants to keep!, it seems like a 3’ retaining wall at the low end would be a happy medium
Such a huge difference in soil from Pittsburgh to Southern York Co. We have a lot of clay and field stone. Built a deck a few years again and had to jack hammer through the stone for the post.
I hope that sticker stain on the hardwood will plane out easily; beautiful lumber.
Good morning from St John Parish, Louisiana 16 Aug 20.
You should have some stakes and paint so you can see the difference of the grade.
