This video was a big surprise. I watched your rescue video when the excavator was in the forest. You should make more videos of future repairs of the excavator.
WaifuRacer Seems to be the way of the world, anymore. I go down to the town recycle, and see bicycles, lawnmowers, exercise machines, all in fairly new condition. Such a wasteful society.
@@waifuracer6516 in most cases it's not so much that they don't want to, they can't afford it, and those who can afford would rather spend less tien getting something fresh and ready to go rather than to wait till the old machine is fixed. And repair prices are also to be considered.
Dude, you are my hero. You need to have your Man Card upgraded to platinum! Seriously, you get a free digger (American: Excavator), you cut lumber and I'm thinking, "this guy needs a mill". And guess what?? He has a mill! Awesome!
@@raphaelsmithwick4363 ding, ding, ding, ding, ding! I'm "as American as Hot Dogs, Apple Pie & Chevrolet"! And yes, we call them Excavators... I wish I had one :(
The sheep with the chainsaw....... if I only had some thumbs I could run this thing ! 😊 It was sure worth the time to get that ol gal going, will be a lot of help with a lot of things ! Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍
I just found your channel and I'm a fan....getting the digger reclaimed from the forest was amazing! You are New Zealand's version of A. Cammarata! Great video!
Brian, I was thinking the same thing - wondering what Andrew Camarata would make of this. Maybe I'll send him a link, I'm sure he would be amused. Andrew's channel is so entertaining. And Marty T is up there too.
As an Aussie, living in Texas for the past 15 years, I too noticed the similarities of Andrew and Marty. But the accent reminded me of my skiing days on Mount Hutt nearly 50 years ago.
Great work on the excavator. It is simply amazing the amount of high quality expensive machines and vehicles that people just discard and dispose of. This video interested me because it is exactly what I have personally been doing for decades by obtaining free or very cheap vehicles of all shapes and sizes and resurrecting them back into functional, useful machines. It gives me an amazing sense of accomplishment and satisfaction to bring back to life something that very few people could or would be able to do. Keep up the great work my friend!
@@ChuckHickl not yet, but i have certainly been considering starting a youtube channel to show some of things i have obtained for free and then refurbished. Everything from a horribly corroded handgun found at the bottom of a lake to a large dump truck that had not been started in 38 years. Recently was given a huge 40 foot motorhome that had not ran in 15 years and had sat for so long that it had sunk 3 feet deep into the ground, got it operational and drove it 20 miles to my home. These kinds of things seem to never end!
@@timrussell1559 Dude, anyone here would love to see that stuff! Go for it, we all would love the variation of functional restorations. What I like about these channels is that it doesn't have to be perfect. Just get that Old Iron running again. Check out MartyT's channel. He started small but provided great content. How great to have a side gig making a little cash doing the stuff you love. I'm subbing you now and look forward to the first video. Keep it simple at first, all of us ironheads love this stuff.
Wow your other video just popped up in my recommendations a few hours ago before i went to bed and i liked it alot and now i woke up and this!!! When i was a child i always wanted to have an excavator in the 12-15 ton range, now i want one with at least 50 tons. I grew up.
Hahaha That's totally hilarious seeing the sheep trying to help out with the chainsaw lol😉 Great video, It's great seeing your old abandoned excavator having a new life and being put to good use👍
Subscribed because you have that Frost Ripper on there. I strangely have one too, in California! Really great for demo and tree roots....and ripping soil. You need a thumb. Turns a good machine into a great machine. Even in non hydraulic, a fixed will do amazing stuff. That will it start, lost in a jungle, rats eating the working shizzle was very captivating. Subbed. Keep up the good work! And he has his own lumber mill. NICE!
I watched from part 1, how you worked hard to fix the Hitachi Excavator, this video is a great example of how young people can take your example of hard work, keep up the great work, Love to see your black sheep healthy and tame to you Marthy. Very good job.
A great mechanic,operator and a man who preserves everything.Not relying on something new.Except some spareparts you need to change it new.Only tracklinks,panels, hydra hoses and if you can afford some fibre glass for the window panels.Also you can build your own cover panels for the wire housing and fuse box.Including new lights for night working (if you need to install it).thats all my suggestion. Greetings from Malaysia.
I was so impressed with your backhoe rescue! You made magic happen in front of a lot of people’s eyes! You are a great problem solver. May I ask to what use will the lumber you sawed be put to? As other’s have suggested, a manual or hydraulic thumb would be a great addition to your Hitachi. Looking forward to you next video. Best wishes to you. Roy Lewis Buffalo, NY USA
Tax write off. Depreciated to zero so if you sell it you have to pay back tax in addition to the pain in the ass accounting and ownership transfer paperwork etc.
i'm always happy to see these old machines come back to life. I went through similar experience with a Lull we had left sitting after my father passed away. Stay safe and post more videos!
enjoyed the update and thank you . Did the Ram ever start the chain saw, he is really smart, you can tell he watches everything you do, even mimicking you by tugging on the Saw! Love your Ram !! more on the Ram too!!

You’re a one man program.Amazing work with all the tools and machinery.Thanks for the wonderful videos brother.
Superb work man, superb! 😊 It is a pleasure to see a good man at work. Andrew Camarata is a soul mate for you chap! 😊 Live Long and Prosper Brother! 👍👀👀👀👍✌
I really enjoyed watching you rescue the excavator out of the neighbors property. Such a great score & working tool for your property. Your sheep reminds me of my black labrador. If only he could have gotten that chainsaw started.
I liked all your videos.From rescuing the excavator from the woods and bring it to life again.And another combination that I really enjoy is "A Hitachi Excavator and a Toyota Hilux pick up truck." Both Japanese brands tool place in one video.Greetings from Malaysia!!
You're living the dream keep it up. I once found a generator abandoned in a forest in Germany back in the 80s. Had to give it back to the British army though, they'd lost it whilst training.
You should have asked them "What colour was it? (Spike Milligan had to find a 5.5 inch army howitzer that had rolled back over a cliff from the recoil effect. His first meeting with Harry Secombe was at the army camp at the bottom of the cliff. Spike asked Harry if he had seen a howitzer roll through. Harry answered "What colour was it?" Spike thought to himself "I like him. I need to have a longer talk with this fellow later.....")
That machine has been a huge blessing... you got a lot accomplished. Rambro and his family likes to be part of the whole process :) sweet! Aloha to you
dude, what an absolutely amazing find. your neighbor is awesome.. even if all you did was scrap it youd get several thousand dollars.. but the level of efficiency in future work has just been greatly increased.. So awesome. god i cant stand living in the city.. i need the woods and trees and creeks and peace. I cant stand the commotion and craziness and violence and ignorance that comes along with living in a major city.
Great to see her up and earning her keep.. Even got some really nice planks to boot.. Love seeing hardware get put back in running order and keeping on bangin' away making the hard heavy jobs easier..
What ever you do with your channel, after your excavator find and repair you need to keep your channel with that because you made that excavator a icon with over 3 million views!
I knew it its the one and only "Angry Ram" its been a long time since I've seen this ram before lol.. nice to see that you have a second channel great video!
I found a $20 bill once, I went to spend it the restaurant rejected it as a fake. I still have it. I think I'm going to leave it on my asshole neighbor's doorstep....hee hee

So are most farm animals really despite people thinking of them as "stupid". pigs are a lot like dogs when raised by people too, probably even smarter. Even cows can be playful/curious like dogs, just dont have the same mobility
Kudos! Very admirable work from restoration to operation. Nothing more satisfying than to see skills and know-how put to good use, plus getting an otherwise valuable piece of equipment for next to nothing.

And to think someone abandoned this machine. Congratulations! Hope it serves you for many years.
it pains me that people dont want to repair anything. Something brakes and they rather get something new instead of taking care of the old one.

Bro you want 2 get some hyvis vests and hard hats on those sheep. Good job man. Living the dream.

Sheep: Let me help you with these logs. I just get the chainsaw... ah, damn hooves. Wait I'll just bite my way through...
You brought back the digger from the dead , you live in a compound in the woods , you built your own saw mill. You are leaving my dream life.
LucifersDeathSquad if it was your dream life why is he leaving it?
Always good thank you again Marty. The goat's have got to be a handful.

Something about this makes me want to go play in the woods with heavy equipment. It speaks to my soul. Love the content.

Great content man; I know it is a lot of work, constantly moving the camera around and all the editing; keep up the good work.
The depth of your skill blows my mind.
I love the story behind the excavator. Would love to hear more about it.

Came for the digger in the forest, stayed for the sheep.
Great Video, I watched the Video of you getting this digger started and never subscribed, I have now, thanks for sharing
You get the impression this guy knows what he is doing, love it when he pats the sheep! 😃
Totally!!! Animals are amazing
You are very smart 🤜🤛 I work for a John Deere distributor for 2 years in the shop and fixing a machine was not easy. Congratulations sir!
