How long did it usually take to start on freezing cold mornings? Did it take longer when it hadn't been used for several days?

Is it really wise to add 75 tons of rock onto the edge of a precipice that's already crumbling away. You need another row of gabions below that row - then another - then another...................

I counted 3 violations. 1) the back area needs to be fenced around the utilities, 2) it's not wheelchair accessable, 3) it's lacking a concrete path. That's far from "finished". You'd fail inspection.

How did these baskets hold up in a stream to use as a retaining wall with water hitting on it as it flows through a curve

Great video mate. Have done mine before but thought I just have a check from down here in New Zealand

You work fast, I guess I would to,if I had to listen to that music

Very usefull. Thank's.

good job and well done on top gravel to give a nice finish. true professional and thanks for tips

looks like fuel cutoff is acting up

I really love the wall .Great job . Thank you 😊

Weld you some Re-rod across your ramps to get some grip....

He hasn't a clue did you see how nervous he was what was all the bucket about. I've got the same ranks you just took the bucket into the digger line up and drive straight up. I wouldn't want him digging my drive ha ha

Beautiful dry stack inside your baskets. Really pretty.

Fantastic work. Can i ask what size the baskets used were please

Respect your driving & courage going up that hill.

how many mm is the steel in the baskets?? what guage is it?

Thanks! Awesome video! You showed you could do it by yourself. very inspiring!

Shitty video

Can’t see what your doing?

I’m not seeing a hard hat bro! The man in the trench needs one on.

Please post more of your gabion work. Love it.

How deep did you have to dig before you laid the first basket down??

I've enjoyed the series but would it be possible to show more of the digger and dumper working on future projects, maybe a tripod would help for the camera work. Nice hand pitching of the facing stone and fill for the gabions 👍

4:00 good tip, about back-fill rubble : don't just tip it in. I intend to put my rubble in (as you did) like building a dry-stone wall.

Wjy good morning TH-cam. 😂😂

Getting stuck in like it

good job

late start

Hi There. What’s the safest height you would recommend building a gabion that is 1 meter wide. Thanks.

That stone is perfect walling stone. I don't understand why you didn't just use it to build a nice wall. Would have been much nicer and there wouldn't have been any cost for the baskets.

What keeps the baskets from rusting and collapsing...

My boss keeps telling me to wear a hard hat when I’m working below anything that could my skull, plus he almost fired me for positioning myself, face down, directly below a piece of heavy equipment while it’s being operated, for ✌🏾sAfTY ReaSoNS✌🏾. He’s such an idiot. When a bobcat falls onto from six feet above just walk it off, sissy!

Great video

This is impressive, thank you. Do you have any suggestions as to how to protect yourself and others from the ends of the screw wire ends? I need to be able to take them out so didn’t want to turn the ends over. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Very good video. You have a very pleasant voice.

Hello there, I have question about the gabion retaining walls you build. Do you ever use concrete foundation? I am planning to build 2 walls 1st: 1meter wide 2.5 high, 26meters long. 2nd wall 1.5 meter wide on bottom, then 1meter, and then half meter. 3.5 meters high, 20 meters long. My idea for the foundation is to dig abou 30cm below surface add stones fraction like 0/63 and wibre it to make it strong, Can you please advise, will be the foundation enough, and what would you recomend while building it? thank you

i have trouble joining a second tier of baskets, getting the long coils on the base of the second tier

You have really pushed your luck health and safety wise . Bad accident waiting to happen

right number one buckets in dumper number two trailer brake on number 3 hilux in gear and 4wd . number 4 digger on so far spin round use bucket to level out on trailer as going up . buckets wont make that much dofference at the front ur better getting the digger as far forward as poss . not beging a dick im a lowloader driver for a living so theres some tips

Is this Stump Cross/Shibden? Where do you get your gabions? I have small job to do in the garden (approx. 7m x 1.5m high), struggling to get anyone to do it so thought i'd have a go myself.

What size of steel are used?

Sand and grit is Let’s water drain ???

Hi Maybe this could help.. @t

Thank you for the follow up.

Thanks bud. Perfect that. I'm doing mine tomorrow with confidence

Not operator error just idiocy

I know this is an old video but honestly, I haven't found a more informative video on how to install and fill baskets . The wall looks great.

Did you have an engineer do any calcs to give you a spec for the retaining wall? I was under the impression that the gabion cages should have a d degree slope towards the land to be retained and the bottom cages should be deeper in width from front to back than the top cages?
