Thanks for sharing the work you do. I am disabled and it makes my day to watch you operate the machine. I wish I was able to work again being on a walker and limited on everything. You make my life easier to bear. You and Tim are a blessing. Take care keep up the videos.
You are a very good operator you run that thing nice and smooth all in one motion well done I love whatchin someone that is good at what they do if you did 900 truck loads I’m sure you are very sick of looking at this mud musta went through a lot of diesel well done
Man when u swinging around in ur machine I notice that's some badass looking houses all around that place,now they get to enjoy their cove in the summer time,
That job took a lot of planning and persistence Chris, probably a lot of 'greazin' zerks and checking fluids to keep it all running good. Nice job Chris
Tornado hit Raleigh on November 28th 1988.....Day before my birthday....worked till 9:00 on my birthday writing estimates for storm damage.......Never will forget some of the damage...one house turned upside down in the street killing a person and the house next door had almost no damage
I know ur glad to be done. It's a good feeling lookin at a finished job knowing u did it. Jobs like that are aggravating but they help pay all those payments y'all have. Too bad u couldn't sell thst as topsoil. Have a good one man.
I may have missed an important issue early on in this video series of dredging the lake. Who owns the lake and who is paying to have it dredged. Is it possible where the water enters the lake to have settling pond that can be systematically dredged to prevent this much work all at one time?
YT yeah you would have to go back towards the beginning of said project the lake is owned by the occupants and they are right smack dab in the city no place for settling ponds
Hello Chris I don't know what for weather you are getting this weekend. But if you get any of that white stuff please be careful and safe. Have a great weekend
Honestly dont even know if. Even in Massachusetts if they would make you toss up a silt fence for the road. However knowing most towns around me they would never have allowed permits to do the job you did haha. Hell of a job man
chris when you have dump trucks hauling, do you pay them what they charge or do they except what you guys are paying? (always wondered how that worked)
Congratulations! Speaking of Mother Nature...Almost like she snubbed her nose at you by allowing the last day to be the prettiest in months! I mean come on...The sun was actually out and everything! What kinda birds were at the very end and what had them so worked up? Haven't noticed them during this job until today! Have a great weekend!
Chris, watch out bud there calling for 1 to 158 inches of snow hahaha.. Lucky me working for the power company were leaving in the morning to stage in Knightdale on 264 somewhere not to bad about 1.5 hour from the house. Shitty thing is there thinking alot of ice there.
If you liked that you should go back a few years to a shed demo he did. He was picking up light bulbs and stuff off shelves in the shed for fun with the grapple and not crushing it. He has some other excavator skill test video's way back to.
WOW looking back at your first video on this job was posted August 28th. Until today over 3 months with all the rain you had to deal with nice job looks awesome.
After taking my meteorology class I now have a greater understanding of the power and forces of a tornado and how and why they can be so violent. 200mph winds aren’t that hard for a tornado to achieve.
Dredging is good for this time of year semi solid frozen ground (well ok maybe not THIS year)...dedinatly time to clear some land make a fire and stay warm! ON TO THE NEXT!

Great news that this lake job is finished; I look forward to seeing the demo video; I bet you will enjoy that, Chris. Have a good weekend !
You are one smooth operator. You run that machine like it's an extention of your finger.
Nice looking completed job. Time for some clearing and a fire now.
Now if they keep it mowed and clear it out it could be nice. Surprised there are no docks there. Seems like it would be a nice place to have a boat.
Thanks for allowing us to look over your shoulder Chris. The long struggle at the lake.

All done, thanks for all the videos of this job bro, much appreciated.
Looking forward to seeing the next demolition job. Nicely done in the lake!
That job took a lot of planning and persistence Chris, probably a lot of 'greazin' zerks and checking fluids to keep it all running good. Nice job Chris
Congratulations Chris looks beautiful.

Very nice finish work looks great nice job 👍👍👍👍
A before and after picture of the dump site would be really cool
More than one dump site.
Nice work. I bet you'll sleep good knowing you don't have to go back there.
I know ur glad to be done. It's a good feeling lookin at a finished job knowing u did it. Jobs like that are aggravating but they help pay all those payments y'all have. Too bad u couldn't sell thst as topsoil. Have a good one man.
I myself had became disabled due to a underground mining accident,sure appreciate your time and effort out with the Bell in with letsdig
Very good job Chris and Tim .
i know your glad with the snow and rain coming this weekend. nice job.
Great work! Thanks for the videos.

I imagine that all that sediment would make for some great farming dirt.
Hello Chris I don't know what for weather you are getting this weekend. But if you get any of that white stuff please be careful and safe. Have a great weekend
Amazing ballet ! You're a great dancer man !
Nice work! Of course now that your finished there, it prolly won't rain for 6 weeks! :)
Epic job. Loved the footage thank you.
At least til next time, lol. Nice work. Thanks for sharing.
How long until it silts back up and how many dump sites did you use for this project?
Hey Chris, an update on that Oak tree would be cool!
Honestly dont even know if. Even in Massachusetts if they would make you toss up a silt fence for the road. However knowing most towns around me they would never have allowed permits to do the job you did haha. Hell of a job man
Any idea how many years it took to accumulate that 900 truck loads???
Nice little straw bale target you had there!!!!
whats the fuel consumtion on your volvo and how long do you use it perday?
Great job on the lake dredging!
chris when you have dump trucks hauling, do you pay them what they charge or do they except what you guys are paying? (always wondered how that worked)
You better go have a big steak dinner in celebration! Lol great work my friend
Elite earthworks needs some tint like that
Kurt Sweetser I agree! My loader has tint just not the excavator yet. It’s been on the list for months lol
@@eliteearthworksllc I like your loader I want to get one not sure if this year got to get a new hydroseeder
Kurt Sweetser thank you! I love my 250, nice congrats on the new hydroseeder
Awesome! You must be so proud!
900 is a bunch. looks like it could stand for another 900 loads to come out of it. but I know it is all about the cash!
Another fine job my friend!!!

ill be about 10 minutes from there plowing LOL
Stay safe bud and make that $ hopefully it's all snow
Whats the next big job yall got lined up?
So are your dump trucks hauling 14 yards? Or is it less because of it being wet?
Job well done Chris y’all do great work
I like watching your work. You can hear the engine running, not some idiotic music. Greetings from Poland
900 truck loads and how many hours of excavator time? That amounts to a lot of money. Someone is rich and now you have some too. Good video
Why silt fence instead of those chip filled socks?
Chris along with his excavator shifting the sands of time.....until it comes back
Wow, the way you plucked those tiny ass fence posts was amazing! Jeff Anderson should come down from Idaho and take lessons from you....
If you liked that you should go back a few years to a shed demo he did. He was picking up light bulbs and stuff off shelves in the shed for fun with the grapple and not crushing it. He has some other excavator skill test video's way back to.
@@super6954 How about the porcelain toilets being stacked, Chris is awesome.
@@jmwarden1 That was a while ago to but didn't one of those break while he was doing it ?
While watching I said to myself "Last scoop Timmy" as soon as I said that you said it to Tim. LOL
Congrats on getting done with this project! I have to admit I was getting kinda tired of watching it. lol. Thanks for the video.
Would sure like to see the lake full with your drone flying over it
Hey Chris I think they want you to go back to the other side and take the rest of it out lol. Keep the videos coming
Great job.
Great job!
Did you get a drone shot of the site?
Would have loved to hear your commentary when it took a while for that dump truck to take off, lol.
I thought you were going to do a drone flight. To show the finished product.
nice - you promised us a drone shot of before and after - where dat?
tomorrows video
Is this is N GA? Thanks for the videos.
What’s the price on 900 truck loads
WOW looking back at your first video on this job was posted August 28th. Until today over 3 months with all the rain you had to deal with nice job looks awesome.
Rain & snow coming this weekend so the lake will be back up in no time.
Bet that's a damn good feeling
Bro that thing looks sweet with the tint
Looks good!
What's a job as such worth money wise
I did over 1000 loads, 23 yard Tri axles and 30 yard End dumps
After taking my meteorology class I now have a greater understanding of the power and forces of a tornado and how and why they can be so violent. 200mph winds aren’t that hard for a tornado to achieve.
FishFind3000 that is correct! I have felt 200 mph winds too!
This deserves a bon fire you can see from outerspace. Are you gonna party like it is 1969?
call me 8675309
@@letsdig18 is Jenny coming along
Is the 900 loads your record?
Does the act of removing a silt fence not create more risk of of silt by loosening the earth?
That was a lot of bucket fulls, ballpark of over 8000ish?
Somewhere around 8100ish. He said 900 trucks and was loading 9 buckets per truck for the most part.
Add in the buckets that it took to get the center of each cove to the edge and probably could triple that number ?
Chris what happened with the drone didn’t charge?
special video tomorrow
What the hell Chris I see a lot of mud on that in windshield there
Shawn Jerome Chris probably let Tim in the 220 again
Y’all have your own fuel truck? I only ask because you’ve never shown anyone fueling up at the start of the day.
That was definitely a job. Of course the weather that we had didn’t help much either.
Chris, what equipment do you use to spread the straw?
tims hands
@@letsdig18 Poor timmy!
Poor poor Timmy he always gets the best jobs
Lmfao damm. Im on the floor. I opened message. Thinking Chris was gonna say some type of straw blower. Damm. Im still laughing
Alright done, onward. What's more fun tree or house "killing", lol?
Love your videos
Chris i started watching your channel a month ago .
I seen a video that volvo did on your company so who will take over the company when you retire?
Liked

90.000 yard's?
You ought to go to Disney world since you just won the mud Superbowl
Time to get you a watermelon and a Colt 45 and sit on the porch watching it snow!
How many tons you load on a truck ??? Trucks dont even look full. 23 tons here per load
around 20 tons a load
maybe the people want their beam back.. or you going with the finders keepers rule.. lmao...
Wats the update on the one job u was on wen u got the new trackhoe u was goin the half to raise up the road
How big a bucket on that machine?
That truck driver did want to leave you had to honk the horn twice
Driver may have been waiting for the tarp to close
900! that's it? In the summer I average around 800 trucks a week. I just figured that job was bigger then that.
ive loaded 200 in a day before but lord I had to move all this stuff 5 times before it could even reach the shore to load
Whoa, at 1440 you related 1,000 yards removed and before that you said 900 truck loads
That is a huge discrepancy..
Did you mean 10,000 yards?
I see she found her mud flaps.
Demolishing a house just seems boring compared to what it was like watching the mobile Mansion destruction
Can we all take a second to wonder why the first truck bothered to tarp the load of MUD?!
If you find anything interesting you should let Kim by the Dredge Appraisal know
Yes!
Save that
