That's like 40% of why I watch these. 40% is 'big machine go brrrr' because I'm a small child at heart. And the other 20% is that I'm hooked on Chris' business development progression now. I'm emotionally invested in his success!
Well, at least ya got it all up and moved before ya got that Tropical Storm, Dumping all that rain on it !! I'd say, you guys have gotten your share of rain here lately , for sure !! lolol... Great as Always Chris !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!
Thanks for the update, that grapple on the 350, just impresses the socks off me, if that design was your idea, it was genius in my book, if it wasn’t, it was brilliant idea to purchase it. Enjoyed watching, try to stay dry.
Chris saying, give this one a PACK n thought 💭 damn forgot this 350 strong 💪🏼 😂 is takes an operator to switch machines like that all the time like Chris does n makes it look very very flawless with every machine 🙌🏼🙌🏼👌🏼
Still impressed how big that bucket is,where was that a few years ago,would have come in real handy for some of those past projects.I’m surprised you still can see green in some of those brush piles,being you said been about two weeks.it is wet but with that amount of rain you can still get around with the haul truck.hope everything is ok on the farm,don’t need no surprises there.great video.just keep doing your thing.be safe.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Such a huge dump of rain from Debbie after a break in the dry time. Mother nature is in control that's for sure of the dirt work business. Have a great time at the Pike - a break from the rain perhaps.
The size of one scoop of brush took me about 2 hours to move by hand from my yard to my trailer today. Good job Chris and ya the rain is incredible right now.
Another good video from this project bro. We had rain almost all of 2023 but seams to be back to normal weather like in the 70's now, more sun than rain. Safe travels. Ken.
Chris, any chance for an update / follow up on the deep pond that you dug behind the barn with an island in the middle, would like to know if it's filled, how the berm is holding out, any washouts and if grass is growing on it.
Chris doesn't worry about that hurricane he has work to do. You have to get your work done why you're on the right side of the grass. Looking good, Chris.
Had a small celebration in San Francisco for 2014 world series baseball champions. Madison Bumgarner a famous North Carolinian played important role in that happening, he'll always be a legend around here.
The difference between day one and now is amazing. Before you cleared the road and ditches, the water had nowhere to go. At least it's somewhat drained, and you're able to move around some. It's in the 70s this weekend in the middle of August. Usually, we're beginning for rain and a breeze. This globe warming 😂, is really super 👌. You definitely haven't had any good weather for doing anything with pond work for a long time, Chris. Hopefully, you aren't getting too far behind. I'm glad you have the main power line in for the cabin, though.
Back down to the New Bern area. The 350 packing brush puts a suspension test on Barney. Activate the lockers and 6 wheel drive Barney won`t get stuck. I only got less that 6 inches of rain from Hurricane Debby, never would have thought N.C. would be a 'rain forest'.
My parents live in Florida…they built their house on stilts for two reasons termites and storm surges…every door and windows all have hurricane shutters…the roof is tied to piers under the house..the area they park their vehicle is 5 higher then ground level… If you are use to the local weather you can prepare….
I didn't get a chance to talk to u in person at the steam show. I was telling u that Clint needs to stick with turning the wrenches and off the shovels.
You know it’s funny how smooth he is on that machine. He shows that you don’t have to pull those leavers all the way every time and then just let it go exactly where u want to dump your bucket. I watch digginglife 21 and he has his head bobbin all day long throwing his body all around. If he would just slow down a bit it would be so much better on him and the machine and the job. I ran a little crane (skyhook) we had 2 of them 1 was a older 85 foot sign crane with on or off switch’s if you pull it your crane is going one speed and u better get off of it ahead of your destination and the other one was a 115 foot he sign crane smooth as a . if you just barley pull it up just barley move and the more u pull it the faster u go.
WuLL.....ya know ya payin too much attention to a particular channel when ya wait patiently for the nxt video......Lets digg....dirt perfect.....no vid pressure. just sayin u'z guys...luv ya's mannnnnnnnn~!
It’s what we here in Europe are experiencing too. Sorry to say, but the climate is changing rapidly. We will have more exstreems, like heat, cold, rain, tornadoes, you name it.
Well you can rake and blade after or you can sit on the couch waiting for Goldielocks weather. Too many chose the second one and end up losing business.
Hi Chris, I see a lot 350s size machines here in Australia fitted with blades, like your mini. Is there a reason why you have chosen not to have one fitted?
Weight restrictions when being hauled from job to job which causes higher transportation fees cuz it then takes specialiazed trailers that not lot of truckers have.
@@darkrevenger04 makes sense now. Here in Aus, transport costs rely on the dimensions of the load rather than the weight. We can only go 2.5m wide before you need an oversized permit.
That would give the machine a Mad Max look to it that's for sure. Haha. I like George Miller's vision for the future. Btw, my trigonometry teacher had a map of the globe on her office wall turned upside down so that Australia would be above the rest of the countries.
@@micksmith2871 Yeah here in US 80K lbs grvw or gross vehicle weight is limit b4 oversized and anything less than 10 ft wide is allowed before oversize permit. After the grvw gets to 175K+ then it is called a superload or sometimes 200K+ to be superload. With superload it can require a pilot car in front and back plus x number of axles total depending on the state or province if in canada. When a permit is required then you have to follow a route given to you by the DoT or department of transportation. if you check out lucky banana heavy haul on YT you can get a better understanding.
Back AT IT! What a transformation I remember when Chris first stated this job water water EVERYWHERE!
he called it the swamp
... and a few months later when he returned to continue, it was so dry. It might be wet with all the rain, but it's not the swamp it was.
I wish everyone on this planet a nice and chilled-out weekend!
Glad you got some of that brush moved before the big rain hit. Wow, 2nd mud season is here! Thanks for sharing, Chris.
That 350 was a 10/10 investment your using it so much it was definitely worth it!
With a hurricane coming, I’m pretty sure that I would get out of town and head to Hawaii or something. Chris still works.
We don’t worry about hurricane’s anywhere around the south. It’s just a money maker to us.
Chris - hope you managed to stay safe with the torrential rain and storms coming your way!
And just think the long range forecast another potential hurricane next week for the Carolinas again with 8 to 12" more inches of rain.
Anyone else have a calming affect just hearing Chris talk and the hum of the music?
That's like 40% of why I watch these.
40% is 'big machine go brrrr' because I'm a small child at heart.
And the other 20% is that I'm hooked on Chris' business development progression now. I'm emotionally invested in his success!
love your work Chris, even in the rain.. looking forward to the next
Usually this rainy weather doesn't start until around the third week or so of this month. But then again Mother Nature runs the show.
Well, the ponds will be filled up and more. Good test for secondary overflows.
Well, at least ya got it all up and moved before ya got that Tropical Storm, Dumping all that rain on it !! I'd say, you guys have gotten your share of rain here lately , for sure !! lolol... Great as Always Chris !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!
Just came home from seeing you guys at the steam show! Thanks for taking my pic with Robert !
Heavy equipment is like the muscle behind every major project-it’s incredible.

Even with all the rain, Chris makes progress! 👍👏❤😍🥰✨

I always enjoy your videos but I am really looking forward to the video you put out after the hurricane. Bealy’s was impressive!!!!
The size of one scoop of brush took me about 2 hours to move by hand from my yard to my trailer today. Good job Chris and ya the rain is incredible right now.
Hey Chris, You just like playing in the mud!! Be safe. Thumbs up! Jim

Wiper time and mud and snow tires!

Hello from Florida. Back to loading good old Barney up with good old Squeaky Always enjoy your videos. Keep them coming.

its amazing how far you have come don't stop just totally awesome
Send us some of that rain! we need it in Tennessee! as always, good video Chris.
Your determination is inspiring, Chris! 💪

At least you got the drain ditch cleaned up 😊
Like they say when it rains it pours. Thanks for the video
What a muddy mess great job Chris thanks
We I live in BC which is a rain forest and I think we have had two days of rain in 3 months weird times
My parents live in Florida…they built their house on stilts for two reasons termites and storm surges…every door and windows all have hurricane shutters…the roof is tied to piers under the house..the area they park their vehicle is 5 higher then ground level… If you are use to the local weather you can prepare….
At least all of the ponds and lakes were tested and improvements noted for future work.
Like your grab. Saves welding a thumb on your nice new machine 😅
Love the channel only wish for more time lapse
Nice ❤
Good Video Thax 👍😀👍
Amazing work❤❤❤
Looks like that’s going to be a good size burn pile .
It still amazes me how quickly you can load brush with your new rake. It’s paying for itself just in time saved.
Nice video Chris.
I didn't get a chance to talk to u in person at the steam show. I was telling u that Clint needs to stick with turning the wrenches and off the shovels.
Like the video Chris But not the rain , And Yes we had Rain too .
That burn 🔥 pile is really close to the woods
Enjoy your video got to meet you today at the Pike peak show
Great job 👍🏻 love how you said that the 350 was waiting patiently to go to work 3:53 love how you laughed love how you said pick up sticks

Man the grapple can move some brush!
Send that rain west. We are burning up here in California!!
Poland Polonia pozdrawia..
MM77 Approved 👍🏼 👍🏼
Re the rain Casey Ladelle in Oregon has wildfires, i'd sooner have rain.
👏👏
I didn't know that you had care working with you today 😅I thought you was working by yourself lol 😆
I am south of you and we have had 17 inches in 2.weeks
Gotta love Hurricane season!
With all the rain you have had has the big pond your dug with the 330 got a good start at filling? How about the small pond on Geoff’s lots? Stay safe
Geoff got really wet at the Bealy farm. Even tested the overflow on the small pond.
Geoff has put a video of his ponds after the deluge out a couple of days ago.
You are going to have life vest for the equipment lol
good video
Lmao Hawaii has about the same major storm season as the eastern seaboard..
thats so cool
Whoever is doing the rain dance can stop now. Yeah, Debby did NC. Welcome to summer in North Carolina.
25-30 tons on 6 tires? Yeah, that'll mess things up!!
I bet you wish you had invested in a big set of “balloon tyres”.
Howdy Chris!
It’s what we here in Europe are experiencing too. Sorry to say, but the climate is changing rapidly. We will have more exstreems, like heat, cold, rain, tornadoes, you name it.

So how does he like that new rootrake
❤❤❤
Well you can rake and blade after or you can sit on the couch waiting for Goldielocks weather. Too many chose the second one and end up losing business.
Bigger Toys! You're gonna need a bigger dump truck!
Thank you and have a great day.
We need rain bad in the north!
Where in the north?
Do you turn off the engines when you are loading the truck to move the brush going back and forth. 11:16
LetsLoad18!
Good morning my friend 😊❤😊
It is hurricane season here in Hawaii but so far so good!!! Mixed light weather,,,trade wind ocean breeze!!! Aloha's 🤙🌊🌊🌊🌊
Checking in
Do you have to get burning permit
🙂
Was just curious: are you going to name the 350, and the two 220s, like you did Betty and Barney?
111 good morning everyone I hope you all enjoy your day we have fine weather here ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Does anyone know if Chris ever sold his 5 ton army truck?
No.
Uncle john sold that years ago while Chris was working for him.

Still enjoyed the video even if rain😊😊😊😊
Cool
Hi buddy
🎉
👏👏👏⛈️⛈️🏃🙏
🤗❤️👍
10 after the rift raft.
I know you don't care 😂but I think you should stop buying old equipment so you can get Barne a big brother to go with the 350 ❤👍👍👍👍👍👍
