    Thanks for the cracking video mate, when you said you can be shown something 1000 times and you’ll forget it, but the best way for you to learn is by mistake’s, please tell me that doesn’t count for your job as a firefighter. Something I’d tell all of my apprentices over the years is, nobody wakes up in the middle of the night instantly knowing how to do something, and a good tradesmen never stops making mistakes, they just know how to fix them. Cheers from down under.

    Captain 40 years ago I use to help a friend clear land on his farm. We piled up the brush in an out-of-way location and then piled dirt on top as we built the pile up. After about ten years it became some of the richest topsoil you have ever seen. It ended up making a few acres productive. You moving that old brush around reminded me of that.

    Great video Captain. I've been doing grading work for 40 years and seat time in a machine is the only way to get better. You figure out something or a better way to do things every time you sit in a machine. You're doing a great job. It makes for a long day on a job when you have Harvey the happy homeowner standing there watching you too. Even more when there is 2 standing there.

    Now that is better !! Not much topsoil to be had, was half expecting you to take a few buckets of silt out the pond and let it dry out, if there was enough for that......

How do I know because my first try was an absolute failure. The second time around I sourced a 8 pickup truck loads of good clay, compacting it well, as well as building a proper overflow just to name a few things I learned on my simple “weekend project.”
