Watching a artist work is memorizing ,I look forward to your daily Videos ,and have never been disappointed in it's content especially when you get together with others who do similar work, the fun ribbing between you guys makes me laugh out loud, Thanks for those times
He's a very skilled tradesman. You could maybe even describe the quality of his work as artful, but I must chime in that this is not actually art. Sincerely, an artist.
Cool, my 11th first like on the best channel I watch regularly. Well, I guess I gotta call it a tie with Mike Dirt Perfect's channel. One goes with the other to make it a good day of TH-cam watching.
As usual you put out a excellent video I have to say this first time I seen you I was looking through TH-cam videos I was bored watching others videos of nothing like this then I stumbled across your videos then I was hooked then I seen an episode with mr. Dirt perfect that I didn't even know at the time I thought he was a extra worker you guys were not communicating with each other one you were building a pond dam then I started watching his show soon after that I started watching c&c equipment but when I'm watching you you give me the perspective how to live my life now because I'm not doing heavy equipment operating anymore it was a really heavy it was like backhoes and mini excavators I was electrician helper and I was able to get under a freshly poured curb without disturbing that's how good I was at the time I'm not going to get into why I'm not doing it anymore this would be really long to read so I just want to say I have a musical comment for you it's an older band. RAINBOW and the song is MAN ON THE SILVER MOUNTAIN when you're doing all the escavating work by yourself at times that song is something that I'm not able to do Pat you on the back and saying you're doing an awesome job I want to say more on how you operating your machine like a person with a brush on a canvas or like a person playing a guitar that's how good you are I was about that good but you really amaze so have yourself an amazing day brother from another mother peace out
Bet you still get tons of comments the sheep's foot doesn't work every time you use it just because of the loose dirt that gets kicked up as you use it, lol. I didn't think it worked very well either when you first got it until you walked on where you compacted and didn't sink any lower than the marks left by the roller. I could see it was compacted well after that, just leaves some loose dirt on top.
Spreading out topsoil for them was a nice adventure, but I learned years ago while working around golf courses in the Pinehurst area, that those boys could grow grass on a concrete base !! LOL
While Chris is being productive out in the cold air I'm sitting in a warm house in California (on high flat ground), drinking hot coffee and eating breakfast . . .
Ya know,,,, I’m kinda doing the same thing,,,,, but I just look up when I look outside. If I don’t, then I see all the snow and get all sad & disappointed by comments like yours!!😂😂😂. Hope the coffee and breakfast was good, Eh! (I’m in Alberta, Canada,, heh heh.)
@@shitloveaduck We had some of that cold white stuff fall from the sky about 15 years ago. I grabbed the camera and drove around the area taking pictures and then went directly back to our warm & cozy home. Do you need some hot coffee? I'll brew a fresh cup for you. Yeah; really.
@@shitloveaduck I am in Innisfail, Alberta, Canada & I agree it's cold but definitely a little better than a couple weeks ago as we had brutal temperatures.
The black topsoil on the edge of the dam is really the finishing touch. Grass growing on that will complete the picture of a very professional job. No doubt your clients will be pleased with the results.
Hi Chris, just wanted to tell you that is another great masterpiece done! Your work is totally all some and I think. That is because your concerned as to the quality of work that you do. Great job!!😃😃
Nice job. You make it look so easy but I know that it's not. When I was younger I worked for a landscaping company and getting all the angles to meet and not be noticed is the trick
You know Chris there are artists that use a brush or a camera.....your tool is heavy equipment, and your canvas is mother earth. It amazes me how you can take these heavy ass machines and sculpt earth into the prettiest landscapes ever...bringing your vision and that of the clients to fruition. Watching you is like watching a ballerina dance, the way you make that bucket glide as though a part of you. Amazing....no wonder they all say, "Chris can fix it". Truly an honor my friend🏆🏆
Chris. You are one smooth machine operator, you have the art of flow type movements. With that type of machine movements there is very little lost time dig swing place empty, return which makes your bottom line better. Please Take Care. 👈😎
This video really helped me to understand how to dredge. I’m learning to run a Kaiser S1 Mobil excavator also know as the Spider here in south Louisiana. I can not see most the time what I’m doing but going by feel. This video was a HUGE help in learning to wipe out canals. Thanks
2 questions: is there a remote on te valve to open and close? Are they turned once a month? These slide valves rust tight when not operated and then it wont open when needed.
I’ve been watching your videos past couple of months and wondering who your workers are - relatives or hired help? Not sure I’ve seen enough videos to understand yet 😂 I do enjoy watching the various projects and wonder how you do so much solo. 💪
In this instance the other person is his uncle John who owns this company. Chris works for him 3 days a week. The rest is Chris's personal jobs and wneh has help he often does not introduce them.
You got such Delicate Touch with Your Equipment ! Finishing the Overflow and dressing the Sides and spreading some Gravel - looking Fantastic ! Another Job well done - You sounded very Happy ! Many Cheers from us in Australia !!!!
Must have posted late today ?? lolol... Yeah, got it fixed back in nice as always !! Sucks the dump got stuck, but, you got it all put back, just took 3 times as long...lolol... Is what it is , I guess !! always something happening... Great as always Chris !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!
Looks like it's supposed to, they should be pleased. Got behind on your videos, been binge watching since the Christmas break, finally got caught up. Look forward to the next one, stay safe.
Boy, anyone who even thinks about critisizing Chris's work, work ethics or abilities is utterly clueless. His channel has taken off because of the way he explains what needs to be done and how he's going to do it with the occasional humor about himself. Young people just getting into this business would be wise to watch him in action and learn the trade every move he makes.
Golf. A mindless sport for mindless people. At least that's what we thought of our members at the country club I worked at. I haven't worked there in over 10 years now so I can say that lol. They would never sub out any work. They knew it all. Their ponds were a MESS! I gave them ideas on what to do, but they never listened. The pond dam broke, flooded the whole lower half of the course. It cost 10s of thousands to fix and I could of saved them all of that. oh well. I wasn't the only one to tell them either. I always appreciate your work, Chris. Its been quite invaluable to me.
Chris,I have a question for you. After you've loaded your bucket,with dirt,mud,or grappling trees and brush,I've noticed that you've mainly swung the boom to the right to dump,when I was tutored years ago,swinging to the left was preferable, as the operator has a much better field of vision, not having to look over the housing. You don't swing left near as much as swing right,is this better for the machine,or just personal preference?😎😎😎
I saw the beginning and it was a mess but it looks like you guys whoop it again and it does look good but it was a long haul to get the dirt to the spot of course you knocked it out of the park nicely done Chris and your uncle John too 👍 5:51 pm from NY 😎🇺🇸
hey chris, love the videos keep it up man. i have a hearing disability and it’s hard for me to understand what you’re saying sometimes. can you put CC in your videos please? thank you in advance
I understand when people say that you don't pack well enough with the sheep's foot. They are comparing your work, to someone who gets paid by the hour! 🤣💪🏼 Keep up the good work!
Nice work Chris. It’s definitely well compacted. If ya watch, as I know YOU do, you can see less and less sticking to the wheel with each pass. When you lift it up on your last path the wheel still spins. If there was still a bunch of dirt stuck in the wheel it wouldn’t keep spinning like that. That clay was some damp and sticky stuff!! Once they do the sod etc on there, give it 3 weeks and you will hardly tell there was a giant hole in the dam! The paving will give it away for a while until it’s done of course,,, haha. Like usual,,, you and John did a great job Chris!! Thanks for sharing!
Nicely done sir! Hey didn't you guy ( Jong and you ) used to have a blue kw dump truck And you have a gray one know. Or do you guys have both. Cause when you at beeleygood's I thought I saw the blue one dumping rock thier!
Spammers in the comments again. Everyone report them as you see them please. I just hit 12 of them.
If you live in his area, this is the guy you hire. Very professional, really pays attention to detail.
Chris, your attention to the small details never ceases to amaze me !!

you can be a artist in Dirt as well as a Artist with a brush and canvas
ART is the right word.
Actually, a physician’s work is memorization; an artist’s work is memorialization.
@@vice.nor.virtue So, who defines what art really is???
To me, his end products are art.

Would it be safe to say that your repair was 'Above Par'? (Golf pun)
Another good video put out by letsdig18. Shucks I have to wait for tomorrow or the next day for my excavator fix.😉

Pond Doctor has completed another awesome job.
Looks like the scam bot is replying to everybody
Again, it was a nice break well it lasted.

Looks great, nice job, that looks like that is a life time repair. Fun project, thanks for the ride along sir.

I love the quality of detail in these little surgical repairs...top notch!
Hi Chris, just wanted to tell you that is another great masterpiece done! Your work is totally all some and I think. That is because your concerned as to the quality of work that you do. Great job!!😃😃
You are a joy to watch. You do make it look better when you are done. Thanks for sharing, Chris. It's a privilege to be able to watch your artistry.
Nice completion and cleanup for another golf course project.
I remember when the grading bucket had sharp, defined corners on the hard face!
Nice job. You make it look so easy but I know that it's not. When I was younger I worked for a landscaping company and getting all the angles to meet and not be noticed is the trick

Well I always know when you break out the grading bucket. That’s it’s close to the end of the project
That's some mighty fine looking top soil they had for you.
Chris, you made a beautiful looking hazard there. "lil oxymoron humor this early evening.😁
Now you might know how I felt being stuck to my dad's golf bag as his caddy, haha.
@letsdig1892. This is a scam. TH-cam won’t stop it. Beware.
And that's a wrap. Overcoming mud and rainy weather to get it done. Smoothed up and ready to go. Looks good. Thanks Chris.
...THE POND WILL BE CLAIMING GOLF BALLS IN NO TIME...LOL...GOOD JOB, KEEP SAFE...
Golf carts too. 😁
@@georgew.5639 LOL
Depends how much imbibing has been done during the round . . .
@@sharonmiller6436 LOL
The sheep's foot attachment made the pile of well travelled dirt seem to 'disappear'. What was a major fail is now an efficient working overflow.

Watching you compact the back slope was mesmerizing. The Zen man.
i believe you could ice a cake with that equipment
I bet the greens keeper isn't very happy 😕
Job Security !!!!Crew is happy as clams with all that xtra work !!
Why not? The pond drain is fixed, the rough tacky-looking bank is all smooth and ready for grass seed and the stumps of all the dead trees are gone.
I think you could spread hard butter on soft bread smooth operator ❤ always like a good golf course job
2 questions: is there a remote on te valve to open and close? Are they turned once a month? These slide valves rust tight when not operated and then it wont open when needed.
*loads up and brings over the 220, just to push the riser on the base
😅😅
Ease of access to do this kind of work wasn't on the mind of the designer of golf courses. Great job Chris. When you going back to Bealy Bank? Lol
I’ve been watching your videos past couple of months and wondering who your workers are - relatives or hired help? Not sure I’ve seen enough videos to understand yet 😂 I do enjoy watching the various projects and wonder how you do so much solo. 💪
That is Uncle John his boss at the family business where he works two days of the week while the rest of the week is his own business
In this instance the other person is his uncle John who owns this company. Chris works for him 3 days a week. The rest is Chris's personal jobs and wneh has help he often does not introduce them.
@@kenore4003 Chris recently said only 2 days a week not 3 any longer.
@@darkrevenger04 Thank you for the update.
Wow there’s a lot of runoff across from the box that needs removed ?
Any reference for those riser / concrete / valve etc…where to buy please
Looks really good now bro, I wonder how long before a golfer puts a round ball into the square riser. Um I will see myself out. Safe travels
I'll bet its not long and then try to get it out.
It should just go out through the pipe . . pick it up at the bottom of the hill.
I used to be an operator but not to your level, you could do this for a living lol great job
You got such Delicate Touch with Your Equipment ! Finishing the Overflow and dressing the Sides and spreading some Gravel - looking Fantastic ! Another Job well done - You sounded very Happy ! Many Cheers from us in Australia !!!!
Golf course project turned out great! The master using his grading bucket designs very well. Thank u so much for video! God's blessings and be safe!
Awesome 😊😊😊
Perdon, no quedo muy alto el nivel para desagote?
My brain read, "Fishing the overflow at the golf course." Guess who's now going fishing this weekend...
So neat and clean. The Dirt Master left his mark
What no seal between the 2 pieces of overflow ?
Very good video on the golf course .
Must have posted late today ?? lolol... Yeah, got it fixed back in nice as always !! Sucks the dump got stuck, but, you got it all put back, just took 3 times as long...lolol... Is what it is , I guess !! always something happening... Great as always Chris !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!

Yep looks good when it's all done. Nice job now off to the next one. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
Does John work for you or do you work for him?
That new box is quite the upgrade and looks like it will last!! Enjoyed, clean the tracks and move in to the next project!!
Great work Chris & John. Take care & cheers 🐨🦘🥰
Don`t you just want to yell "4" sometimes? LOL Another fine job by letsdig 18 !! Sure wish you lived near me.

That’s a great roller you have on that bucket for smoothing out the new soil.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Chris you should look into yard brush attachments for the mini as that would really help you out in clean up 👍🏽
Chris looks great! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
Maybe a little Rip Rap in from of the Overflow Box Drain. Purely cosmetic is all .
I understand when people say that you don't pack well enough with the sheep's foot. They are comparing your work, to someone who gets paid by the hour! 🤣💪🏼 Keep up the good work!
Nice job looking great
Great project! That roller is a neat attachment. Never seen one.
A small version of the self-propelled sheepsfoot roller. 🙂 Someone must've seen a need for them in smaller jobs.
That looks good Chris. Another successful job in the Books!
Hi Chris.
Nice job by you and your uncle, again. 🙂
Ed from Chicago 🙂
🔞 Not on my lawn! (in a scottish accent!) You make such a nice mess until after you're done, then it's nature's turn to finish sprucing it up.
That came out looking nice, but with your abilities you always make a job look great.

Hey Chris, is this Pine Hollow Golf Course?
Mighty Fine Job Sir 👍🏻
Looks really great Chris 👍👍👍👍👍
looks great Chris
Thank you and and have a wonderful day.

I take it that the golf course maintenance is going to be putting the asphalt paving in.
Yup, as well as any smoothing and seeding and sod.
Good morning afternoon and goodnight all
