6 and a half hours ? A mind blowing amount of work achieved. So efficient! Imagine how long a couple of men with barrows and shovels would take to do this!
13 minutes uploaded.,,,we did not have a letsdig18 video Monday evening so it`s great to have one Tuesday May 4th. No rain -we see you are still making dust. Another fine job by Chris and Uncle John.
We had beavers in a lake by us, and they manged to block off a whole 10x10 concrete culvert that went under a railroad fill, and raised the lake by like 5'. They're genius little bastards.
There is a lake in the Adirondacks Mt in NY and the lake is as large as it is because beavers laid trees across standing trees and then packed mud and debris against it to seal it off. If you go in the stream side of it ,it is a log wall with the water several feet over your head
realisticlly that was a night or 2 of work for a beaver on a mission. when we had our problem i blew the dam and the next night it was back and then some
Oh that's where the barbells got off too. Had a good chuckle at the chain loop and cinder blocks as well. Quite the collection in there. All the neighbors need to get together and volunteer to give those returning beavers a very hard time of it. They never mix well in close proximity to mankind. Their stubborn runs right up against our stubborn. Excellent results as always, yet again Chris.
I know that the way people handle and feel about beavers has changed over time. That being said, every once in the while you find a few that need to be evicted.
If I bought some land and there was a natural pond there and they were there before me, I might consider letting them stay. But, if I built a pond for my own purposes and they showed up, I'd likely end up evicting them somehow.
I don't think the beavers put that there, it would be funny though haha --- from what I understood the landowners rigged-up all sorts of things, to hold down the pipes from floating because they were 6-ft too long.
You know there's never a disappointment in watching a 45 minutes to an hour video with Chris he always makes everything looks so good and so smooth and so clean. boy does he make a fucking disaster look like a disaster when he's cleaning up...all that debris looked like potential fire pit material and some how after moving it 3 times he made it no existant...great job Chris as always
The end product looks amazing! You do such a great job bringing in good dirt and getting rid of all of the old crap. You did a great job laying all of that matting. The grass will grow in really well! You did that job very cleanly!
I wanted to see how big that beaver is that moved old Jim Bob weights. Chris that was a awesome repair and in 6 HOURS! You truly are the pond king. Anyone else would still be planning what to do. How Winson doing?
another neat job you take pride in your work and it shows also alot of work to do in such a short period of time and come out so neat can't beat experience thanks for the videos
I'm almost surprised we didn't see a Beaver standing on the shore shaking a tiny paw at Chris in Rage screaming "YOU BASTARD! IT TOOK US 9 MONTHS TO BUILD THAT AND YOU DESTROY IT IN 15 MINUTES!!! YOU'LL BE HEARING FROM OUR LAWYERS!!!"
Hunting season for beaver ends on the 15'th of May here in Sweden... A decent hiding and a 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser would be quite efficient there I think...
Chris, glad I found your channel I enjoy watching the beautiful work those Bravers are good carpenters and causes problem they are to admired great little critters keep the good work up, I have watch your programs about a week thank you for the excitement and the comeness of your voice may God continuely blss you to be a blessing to others
Beavers (more or less) died out in the UK in the 17C but some are being reintroduced. Seeing here what they can do and how much effort has to be devoted to fixing the problem makes me wonder if this is the best thing to do. Nonetheless it is fascinating to see how pond overflows can be designed to accommodate beaver issues.
hhiii friend i think i missed part three of pond over grown you put last a concret over flow in but i missed last bit when its finished ..?.i think it was one you was doing last week..anyway lets see this next one love watching all your work friend they look great at end...
It’s amazing what a beaver can do to a pond or a creek the crap that they can pack up there and stop water from running but anyway Chris another great video you and John and yawls family stay safe and keep the videos coming brother
Damn , That clay packed in Real Nice !! Man that overflow looks real good !! "Smooth" !! Damn water gofers had it tore up pretty bad !! lolol... But, you got it looking Super Nice as always Chris !! I was waiting for a Big Ol' Snake to come out from under that plywood.....lololol... Have a Great Evening Man !! On too the Next.....
And I'll be honest that is what brought me to your channel years ago was the beaver dam blow outs..since then it's been pond building...but I remember when you almost got stuck in that river of mud and you had used another excavator to help pull that one out...always impressed, hence the reason I come back
A well sequenced video ! Always a pleasure to see your projects evolve.! Have to admit I am partial to beaver dams as a multiple use area nearby has seven dams that most users are not aware of. All that in 6.5 hours. Utterly amazing. Sure there was not many more people working there. : ) : ) : ) : ) : ) : )
I grew up on a backhoe and would consider myself an operator 10000 + hours or so but from watching your videos for years having no experience on an excavator i was confident enough to take job as an excavator operator. So far so good, the first few days was a bit of a learning curve but I got it now. Not gonna lie I kept trying to spin the seat around lol
Massive beaver bling!!! Wow, nice haul!
6 and a half hours ? A mind blowing amount of work achieved. So efficient! Imagine how long a couple of men with barrows and shovels would take to do this!
It depends on how big the whip is.
Impressive since he managed to record it all too!
And would 2 men do as good of a job
Very clever of the beavers to raise the water level in the pond by placing metal plates across the mouths of the overflow pipes.
🤣🤣🤣
They've been taking shop classes when they're young!!!
Leave it to beavers😀
Q no
Steel plates are no problem for beavers that work out with home gym weights.
I was so excited when I saw the cinder blocks and chain! I thought we might have found Hoffa! Sadly, no.
Chris found him years ago and transplanted him to atop a very high hill!
ลลลลล
@@user-ue9ld7dv2x Same to you, JO - Use your words, little baby
Chris points at the pond and says "Dam....
Beaver points at Chris and says DAMN!!!!
The sound of the wood crunching always makes me hungry for potato chips
🤣🤣🤣
It does
🤣🤣 Me too ! Or Cheetos !
😂😂🔥
Dam 🦫 now I want some chips
Such a tender touch used to take that apart... your skill never ceases to amaze me.
You could do it to if you say in that seat 40 hours a week
Anyone with a little coordination in a month can become extremely good at running a hoe but its not that, it knowing (what) to do is the key!
13 minutes uploaded.,,,we did not have a letsdig18 video Monday evening so it`s great to have one Tuesday May 4th. No rain -we see you are still making dust. Another fine job by Chris and Uncle John.
And, they didn't even get MUDDY!
Thank you for your video.
❤ ñow too get the grade
Your work always amazes me. I'd love to see this again after the grass has grown in.
Wow 🤩nice comments, You comment so good where are you from?
We had beavers in a lake by us, and they manged to block off a whole 10x10 concrete culvert that went under a railroad fill, and raised the lake by like 5'. They're genius little bastards.
Just imagine if they knew how to run heavy equipment!
Over here in the UK were employing them around the country to help stop flooding, there on UK rates so are a little more expensive!

My new favorite statement. “The abyss of everything”.
Well done as usual. 👍
That wee blade on the mini is a lot more effective than I'd have imagined.
@@WatcherNine ain’t that them damn truth.
@@WatcherNine that is a fact
Goodness , my man has wasted NO expense on erosion control measures , awesome job , looks great.
You need to hire those Beavers. They do dam good work.....
Wow you finesse that bucket better than I do a fork and knife.
Sad no beaver damn busting (that's how i found you many many years ago) but I am still here watching every vid! Awesome job!!!
I bet those beavers are JEALOUS! They just watched you do years worth of work for them in five minutes with that mini🤣
realisticlly that was a night or 2 of work for a beaver on a mission. when we had our problem i blew the dam and the next night it was back and then some
You are a true artist with that machine. None better in my book. Greetings from Lancaster county Pa.
Check out the Petr Smotek videos ,he picked up an egg with a machine!!
Nice project Chris,looks great!

What a wonderful job of restoring that lovely little pond. You are the pond expert for sure.
Chris is the pond whisperer, great job Chris!
Truly amazing work by beavers. Nature’s civil engineers.
Beavers did not close off the overflow.
I'm always amazed at how you can envision what the final project is gonna look like. thanks for the videos.
Looking great Chris
it’s nice to be able to get on and off the job and to the next one. great job chris
Great work as always like all your videos thank you for sharing
Another superb job Chris
I never thought I'd see you using the scoop to "work out" !!!! lol
Got to (grudgingly) admire beavers - same work ethic as Chris!
I know that the way people handle and feel about beavers has changed over time. That being said, every once in the while you find a few that need to be evicted.
If I bought some land and there was a natural pond there and they were there before me, I might consider letting them stay. But, if I built a pond for my own purposes and they showed up, I'd likely end up evicting them somehow.
Dude. You are a wizard with those machines. I have not seen anybody that good before
I don't know if I would mess with these beavers. Looks like they have been pumping Iron.
🤣🤣🤣
HHHAA, Love it! :)
Beat comment ever
You proved how hard beavers work!!!
Beautiful project thanks
Chris another job made easy, you really know how to do it. Thanks for sharing. Kevin
Brilliant before and after. Well done
I think it would have been fun to watch those beavers bring up that barbell set to plug the pipes!
I don't think the beavers put that there, it would be funny though haha --- from what I understood the landowners rigged-up all sorts of things, to hold down the pipes from floating because they were 6-ft too long.
@@GlobalistJuice yes, I know. I was just making a funny in a world devoid of humor.
Looks great as always!!!..
That look like another job well done by the pro.
Wow 🤩nice comments, You comment so good where are you from?
@@tomdwayne5198 Chase Elliott country. Dawsonville GA.
You do some good work brother I enjoy watching you're video and saying hello from the pickle capital of north Carolina
I wondered what happened to the barbells. Dam beavers are devious,
Hey Beavers! welcome back, It's been years!. been getting in some Gym action to I see.
Very interesting project you had in this one. Them beavers are keeping you famous!!
Nice job . You really know how to take care of the beaver.
That has to be a happy customer. In and out in day with quality work. Some guys would have barely started by the time you were chaining up to leave.
You know there's never a disappointment in watching a 45 minutes to an hour video with Chris he always makes everything looks so good and so smooth and so clean. boy does he make a fucking disaster look like a disaster when he's cleaning up...all that debris looked like potential fire pit material and some how after moving it 3 times he made it no existant...great job Chris as always

Another fine job Chris, keep the videos coming, I for one really enjoy watching a great operator.
great job buddy and great video as always 😎👊🏻👍🏻 the mini is so strong 💪🏻
If it makes you feel any better I had beaver for dinner one time in Estonia; it was pretty terrific.
I wanted to see how big that beaver is that moved old Jim Bob weights.
Chris that was a awesome repair and in 6 HOURS!
You truly are the pond king. Anyone else would still be planning what to do.
How Winson doing?
another neat job you take pride in your work and it shows also alot of work to do in such a short period of time and come out so neat can't beat experience thanks for the videos
Great job Chris 6.5 hours later total transformation.
You certainly do make it look easy and do good fast work
Really nice looking job, silk purse out of a pig ear!
fantastic job as always!
Job ended up great!
Wow you did all that in 6.5 hours , bravo 👏, great job man
Clever Beavers in USA. using tin sheet to block the Overflow!
Really stunning work Chris. Looks super good. 👌
Beautiful job Chris.
I'm almost surprised we didn't see a Beaver standing on the shore shaking a tiny paw at Chris in Rage screaming
"YOU BASTARD! IT TOOK US 9 MONTHS TO BUILD THAT AND YOU DESTROY IT IN 15 MINUTES!!! YOU'LL BE HEARING FROM OUR LAWYERS!!!"
Truth is they are way better pond builders than most humans, with a few exceptions like Chris.....
Chris will probably hear from PETA's lawyers on behalf of the beaver population. 😂
@@hoberghacienda2267 And his Customer's lawyers will respond with some variation of:

Another GREAT job!! Stay safe!
Nice job, Chris.
Such an improvement!
Could have used Chris on the Suez Canal debacle. “Is this something you think you can help us with, Chris?” “Hold my beer!”
Chris, the Pond Master.
Only six hours?!! Incredible change. The customer sure did hire the right contractor.
You do one hell of a good job! If I ever build a pond yur the guy I'd call.
Your work is amazing. Never fail to amaze me. Thanks for another video.
hhiii friend i think i missed part three of pond over grown you put last a concret over flow in but i missed last bit when its finished ..?.i think it was one you was doing last week..anyway lets see this next one love watching all your work friend they look great at end...
Chris, you are an artist.
Looks great as usual! I’m sure you like the change of pace and doing these little jobs once in a while...
i MUST HAVE TAKEN A NAP DURING THIS ONE! I only remember the first part! Nice to see some of the former equipment
There is water management and some great engineering! lol
It’s amazing what a beaver can do to a pond or a creek the crap that they can pack up there and stop water from running but anyway Chris another great video you and John and yawls family stay safe and keep the videos coming brother
Damn , That clay packed in Real Nice !! Man that overflow looks real good !! "Smooth" !! Damn water gofers had it tore up pretty bad !! lolol... But, you got it looking Super Nice as always Chris !!

Almost 500,000.....👏
All those people watching digging amazing
Beaver are amzaing lil engineers of Nature thier ablity are impressive
eye soar to jaw-dropping transformation WOW!
A good result. Man beavers can get busier than a cab in New York when they want too. Good stuff bud.
Awesome job
I've only just found your channel and it's compulsive viewing.

Hey everyone look , those beaver's even had there own gym equiped with a full weight set.
those beavers also put those road signs to block the outlets and a barbell set amazing
THOSE beavers were two legged!
I was waiting for the snakes to come out from under the plywood!!!
