    When you were slapping that mud on the bank near the dock on your time lapse I would swear you were using your hands....smooth, repetitive, no hesitation.....and it looks perfect!!!! Such a great operator. Love the time lapse....but if you continue to do that you'll have to make even longer videos to make up the time!! Lol You spoil us with the long videos but that's just ONE of the things I like about your channel...and everyday posts too!

    I am impressed with your ability to dredge blind like you were doing. Thx for the tome lapse…it’s great for times when you don’t need to explain anything but we still get to see the heavy lifting that happens. Much better than just a ta-da :moment where all the work happened off camera.

    Chris that’s gonna look so much better when that mud dries out and grass grows over it. Another fine job my friend so after you get the overflow and you are off to your next job. I hope it’s the Beally good Farms pond, that’s gonna be some good videos coming from there but anyway brother you and John and yawls family stay safe and keep the videos coming my friend

    Hey Chris.. I don't think people quite understand how overwhelming a project like this can be to a homeowner... Yes it cost a lot of money to have you come do this!! However.... Being able to come by one day and see how much progress you've made.... And then each and every time you're there it's exponentially better!! I'm sure there's hundreds of clients that would agree. It takes time but... There's very few people that could do what you do as well as you do it!!

    I love your comment when you were scooping out a bucket of mud with water gushing out the sides of the bucket, “this is some my drier material”! 😆
    Oh it would have been great to see the mini hopping over the siphon, I can’t picture how that would work.

  • @radioace318la
    @radioace318la 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    16:37 Starting at this cut I would not be surprised just from the sounds, you could tell me what I'm looking at. The subtle changes of the sound of the pump. Blindfolded, you can tell me the position of the stick and boom. how much load they have on them at the time. Dress grading isen't stressful on the machine at all. Slinging underbrush isn't as predictable via sounds but gentle grading has a sound of its own. Great Work, Chris.

It's going to take me a while to get around it with my giant Bobcat E35 but now I have a new project and will only cost me a little fuel. You're too far from central VA to get me out if I get stuck so it'll only be as far as I can comfortably reach from the bank!

    You could cut the bottom out of a plastic barrel cut a 4" hole and bolt on a toilet flange with a threaded adapter to fit your siphon T. That way you can just bale a few scoops with your excavator. It would be a lot lighter than dragging the pump over messing with the hoses and all that. Pretty quick and easy.
