Today we backfill a trench with the Kubota KX-057-4 Excavator then spread some stone with the Kubota MX 5400, I also use geotextile under the stone to build a good and solid road and it saves on stone.

That’s weird. The Morgan’s had the exact same thing for dinner as me. 🧐
@@KevinMBean that means you are no longer an individual. 🍩
@@realairplane261 Right. Anyone who eats the same meal at a restaurant is no longer an individual either.
@@KevinMBean that is what we have turned into. Making and preparing food has become something that comes from a package. Try to buy canning lids at a reasonable price now. We use to buy a package of 10-12 lids for a $1.25 and now Amizon is selling 1 lid for 70 cents. If I were living in town, I would be really be uncomfortable depending on others to provide my main stay. So when we group people together to have the same same we loose our individual image.
Link to the huge roll of geotextile you used?
Love the video as always, I am glad also you play the music along with it. The main song used in this video I have always enjoyed. I do not here this style of music played in our area of Central Ohio where we are from.
Mike you ask also what do we do for a living? I do not watch your videos because I have acres of land and use all the equipment you show on your channel. I am a salesman have been my whole life. I had worked over 35 years in the food industry with sales to the grocery stores and big box retailers. I started watching your channel because I also love having a chainsaw in my hand to cut firewood for our fireplace. I also have a 30 ton splitter, i know a little over kill for my needs. But I am 60 years old now and have watched your channel for 2 years.
I also keep watching because I love to watch about hunting and how you function as a close family. Plus this Pandemic has only brought you all closer together. I can't wait to see the building done, plus see Hannah's Wedding or reception. Plus Melissa finally getting her swimming pool for her and the grandkids.
Please keep making wholesome videos and I will keep watching.
Their is nothing more satisfying to see than a man and his wife working together towards a common goal.
Melisa is helping coz there is a whole she wants dug to put some water in it later. Lol. She is the Boss though.
looking good you guys!... lots of work to do!.. thanks 4 video. be kind.
Mike you are doing everything right!👍👍. And explaing about getting the dirt off before you get on the stone!, only a pro would know that!. I put my grandson on my lap in my bobcat and drove him around and when I stopped to hand him to my daughter he threw a fit !, had to pry his fingers off the cadge!. Lololo!.
Morgans have a day and keep dry!.
Rainy and cold in central missouri today. Got our Timberking mill set and close to ready last week. Waiting on the weather to break so we can get it under roof. Better weather this weekend. Looking good in and around your building. Enjoy your videos.
We signed with hello fresh. Thankyou. My wife enjoys listening to you narrate your videos. She thinks you have a neat voice. Keep up the good work.
Mike: you look so natural in that Kabota excavator, almost forgot you just bought it. I really enjoyed the episode with the Plumber.
Most young 👦 s like the big machines and even some old 👦 s do too🤗
Morning Mike and Melissa,,,great to watch you two working and Ty supervising the work crew.....lol Have a beautiful day and keep shining you two.....
Hope you covered the end of that pipe so water doesn't get into it.
MELISSA DID!
Tried Hello Fresh, 3 meals a week for 2, my daughter and myself. So far we've liked all the meals, prep time is minimal. Food has been good. Thanks.
Mike you are my morning must watch.
Hey Mike I really enjoyed this video and learned a lot 🇺🇲 it's been raining here in Florence Alabama for 2 days I enjoy the videos with you both helping each other 🇺🇲😎
Rain here today as well, looks like we are going to get about an inch
two can accomplish more than twice as much as one!
Good morning Morgan’s! Rainy and 45 in Southern NJ this morning. Looks like things are moving along nicely. Supervisor Ty is the cutest! Have a day!
👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🗽🙏🏻 Enjoyed! Mid sixties today and sunny in East Texas, trees leafing out, dogwoods in full bloom! Restaurants in Texas are all open, Grandma says no more cooking! Gotta plant the bushes to block the view of all your stuff from the neighbor, they're pretty close. Grandsbon Ty sure is growing, he'll be running that excavator before you know it. Invaluable what he can learn from his Grandpa. Andrew Camarata got a video on snowmobiling three and a half hours long and no commercials! Beautiful scenery!
Nice action with the bucket and the blade combo to fill the ditch Mike....nice video shots Melissa while Mike was backfilling
DONT HAVE AS BIG A VAREITY OF MACHINES AS YOU MIKE BUT GRANDSON JAXSON IS JUST LIKE TYE HE LOVES WATCHING THE TRACTORS AND MOWERS TOO
Ty will be hosting this show one day!!!!👍
Great job Mike Melissa Hunter and Ty, you all did your jobs really good. It’s going to be great when you get it done. Thanks for sharing with us and keep up the good work and videos please. Thanks to the sponsors for this video, the meals look great. Fred.👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👋👋🙏🏻🙏🏻
Mike,
Checkout 'Norway' or 'Black Hills Spruce' trees as an alternative evergreen. Hemlocks in Michigan are sometimes afflicted with the 'hemlock woolly adelgid' disease. Maybe check with one of your forester buddies.
Always Enjoy your Videos, The Best! Hey Hunter!
It is looking great 😊.Thank you for sharing
Talking about clean and dirty dozers - after working in heavy wet clays at the strip mine (southern Illinois) we had to use a tile spade to keep the top carry rollers on the tracks cleaned so they could roll easy and not wear a flat spot in the roller. Not fun on a low ground pressure wide track D8 when cold and rainy out. I really appreciate your references to the heavy equipment industries - a lot of great memories for this retired coal miner. Love watching Ty enjoying the big orange equipment.
Good morning to you Ty Mike and Melissa!! 58 degrees heading to the 70's here. Suppose to get some pretty severe weather today from the nastiness heading this way from Mississippi and Alabama. I hope that it doesn't get to bad. Y'all take care and stay warm and " Have a day " !!
Good morning! Gotta go shopping for attachments for my "new to me" 55 HP tractor today!!....looking at Rotary cutter first.....rain today here in eastern Ohio....
Good morning from Southeast Kentucky. What a wonderful smile Melissa has and super impressive slinging that lumber around when Mike has the sawmill fired up. Love watching y'all upgrade the property. Have a great day.
Great Video! Training Ty to be a Business Supervisor later in life. They always say to start them young! Teamwork making the dreamwork! Your dreams you envisioned are coming together real nicely! A lot of people at my day job order Hello Fresh! I never had it, but your meals looks delicious! Great video Mike Melissa and Supervisor Ty! Say hello to Hunter, Eva, Hannah, Levi and his wife! Wishing you a great weekend ahead!
Soooo jealous of that beautiful rock free dirt. Nicely done as always guys.
Nice progress! It is great to see you closer and closer to getting the basics done - before you get to the most important job - THE POOL❣️ Marcus from Chesapeake VA.
Mike, just read the comments, you got your hands full on answering this video questions. Thanks for sharing. 🇺🇸
Good Morning from Lake George NY! Some rain coming, and warmer temps! Love the channel!
One of my favourite places to visit . Hello from Canada
Great job Mike and Melissa its looking really good things are coming along and putting the conduit down under the driveway will make things easy later with the waterline. Grandson Ty did a great job as supervisor.
I don't think I've ever seen anyone work as efficiently as you do. I'd love to find someone to mentor and teach me to work as well as you! Thanks for great content.
Another great video. Love seeing Ty and the rest of the family in the videos with you. Thank you for sharing your life moments with us. ❤❤❤
Good morning Morgan family ☕️ have a blessed day
I agree. I used geotextile fabric under a new construction driveway that's 500 feet long and passes through a known sink hole formation that fills with water temporarily during thunderstorms. The fabric has prevented my driveway from sinking into the ground for 4 years now. I also have no weeds or grass growing up in my driveway. It's well worth the investment.
I really enjoy watching you guys on all of your channels. I may not commit much but an having fun.
You're right Mike - It's so important to keep your equipment cleaned and correctly lubricated at all times. I used to work for Shell Oil in Zimbabwe and we kept ALL our equipment, including our fuel delivery trucks and trailers in tip-top shape !! It seemed to keep the trucks etc. up and running MOST of the time !! You do a GREAT job of maintaining ALL your equipment, as well !!
Mike, while you have the post hole attachment dig holes on all 4 corners for posts plus maybe some around the gym door area???
If not I'll take bets on what corner gets hit FIRST! My guess is south-east (if the gym doors are facing North) 😊
Each bet cost $5.00 and the total goes to the Hunters' wood bundle fund or Burger fund???
Whatever post is the first will be put in a drawing (names of people that guessed right be put in a hat) & Hunter than will pick the winner. The winner will get a FREE hat or mug from Hunter!
Good testament to using “road fabric.” Lots of hard opinions for & against this step. I trust that you used it because it was the right thing to do. I also intend to use it as a way to save rock from sinking into our clay soil. Glad to see you using the land plane. Very handy that you can use it going forward and back (unlike a box blade).
Love the little man. Thanks for sharing 👍
I love this time change, it just gives me the umph to get out and do something. Plus, it gives us more Outdoors with the Morgans content. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY
Amazing how dry it is for this time of year. Soon to change though. I'm sure by the time you read this you'll be in the mud.
Definitely changed today lol, all day rain
Absolute in wet crappy , sub soils or clay sols. Fabric works awesome. , even the non woven black. Works great.
Mike, I've got heavy winds right now 8:00 pm here in NEO. be very careful.
Looking better every time I watch tye is getting big and doing a great job. Keep smiling Melissa 😃! Tell hunter missed him in video!
Mike good ideal with going ahead and putting in the pipe for the future water line. You should have a good drive way there
Awesome. 20 THOUSAND views by 11AM. AMAZING
Question: with joining the PVC pipe, why are there 2 types of solvent cement used on the join (clear and purple)? I'm no plumbing expert, but here in Australia, we only seem to use 1 type of solvent cement / glue to join PVC. I have seen some plumbers also use priming fluid to clean the pipe join first, but that is more of a clear water like viscosity (similar to acetone) that evaporates before adding the thicker solvent cement.
That purple pre-treatment functions like your cleaner. It is runny and evaporates fairly quickly. I have heard that it softens the surface of the PVC some as well, but I don’t know if that is accurate.
@@johnsadler8637 Thanks John, makes sense.
It's purple so the inspector can see that it's on there.
Is that the reason? I figured it was a visual aid, but I used it to see if I had done a good job myself!
A simple task of moving stone becomes so satisfying to see the changes and progress. Great idea on burying the pipe for possible future use. Didn’t you mention you are going to build a new access road down to the renewable resources area? Looking forward to seeing you do that also. Thanks for sharing and Melissa your smile can’t be beat its infectious 😊 Stay safe.
Your pretty darn good with your equipment 👍
Good morning M&M from S.E. Ohio. Ya'll doing a splendid job!!! Your little helper is a cutie pie.
Looking good. Ty is doing a great job of supervising.
Hi Mike - I enjoy your videos very much. Quite the adventure you are on in life. Fun to see it unfold. One request - could you please start posting the credits for the music you use? I've found myself more than once looking for that info in the video or "down below". Thanks again for the wholesome entertainment! Best wishes to you, Melissa and family.
When you started spreading the base stone, it sounded like the supervisor was hollering some instructions to you. 😀
good video very cute supervisor you guys have have a great night
Good day folks !! I wonder how that land plane would work here in the near north of Ontario with all the rocks and boulders we have ! Love the idea of the geo tex o keep the stone from sinking ! Hello to Hunter, Mike ,Melissa, Ty , and all !!
A "conduit" for a future water supply line. Brilliant Mike! I would've never thought of that. I'm rather frustrated in myself for putting in small diameter conduit to my communications tower from my house. Now I want to feed more thru it, and its not thick enough.
Wow really looking good. It’s gonna be nice. 👍👍👍❤️
Looks like TY is training to be a forman! You two did good work today! Best of luck in future endeavors! Love to all and be safe!
Great Job Mike!!!
Love your channel enjoy watching all your progress on the property.
Melissa missed an opportunity to do her stairway bit on the ditch.
Hey Mike while running all these underground pipes have you considered running a small gauge wire in the trench so it could be located later. I know you'll remember exactly where these pipes are but the next owner might appreciate it. Even a cheap metal detector should be able to follow the wire. Just asking for a friend. lol Have a Day!!'
Good morning from Carline county va I'm always looking at yalls videos hope yall have a good and wonderful day
Good morning everyone. 37º in Kansas City now. Hope everyone is safe in the south after the tornado outbreak yesterday. Stay safe, be humble & kind and have a day.
Curious, MO or KS?
@@ArnieD17 I am in Kansas City Missouri, born and raised here. Although I live less than a 1/4 mile from the state line.
@@rphiliprogers Lived between the Plaza and Westport for almost 9 years before returning to WI. The hospital was almost in my backyard. So quit close to state line road.
@@ArnieD17 Know the area well, I live 1/2 mile North of I-435 and State Line Road. I should update my handle to include Missouri. Most everyone don't realize that Kansas City was created when Kansas was part of the Nebraska Territory and was named after the Kansas River which empties into the Missouri river here.
Hey Phil, I have a brother living in Trimble, Just North and a bit East of ya. I myself live in Peoria, IL.
By the way, are you planning to put protection at the corners of the building, and at the overhead door portals?
I flinched every time Mike went around the corner of the building! He’s a lot more confident operating a tractor than I am. Some bollards would be a nice addition. But I figure he knows what he’s doing. He wouldn’t want to install any until the foam insulation is installed anyway, I suppose.
Fast forward looks like Motor Mike is the god of hauling earth and leveling.
Nice Mike got quite a bit done and making progress!!👍👊
HI Mike and melisa this are really coming along nicely one quick question for you Mike is there anything special of the type of pvc pipes used in the application used in your part of the USA we here have to USA FL code pvcs scd.40 white pipes that's for water application only I didn't know the difference between them until I was building had up take it all up and change it to the right ones I couldn't see it properly so when I saw your glueing the pvcs I noticed that they look like it's the electrical one you lay down it's not for water in FL code hopefully you will look at this comment and check it out
Nigel Grant, I believe when he runs the water line from the street he will be running the water line into the plastic pipe into the building? It will not be used for the water, he put it down so he doesn't have to dig the driveway up to add a water line to his building.
@@chris3m98 okay Chris 3m that . make sense to me but costly nether the less
Good Morning, Have a great day all , off to continue the demo,phase of the upstairs remodel..
I can hear your little foreman in the back ground yelling to Papa to start spreading that rock. 😀
Hi mike an Melissa an Ty have a day love from TEXAS
Bet ya are going to have to move topsoil pile again before ya can finish stone work- less chance of mud intrusion- looking good
Your place is shaping up really nicely for all your hard work, looking forward to when you start the interior!
GREAT 👍 VIDEO AS ALWAYS MIKE! SITTING HERE HAVING DOTS PRETZELS AND DRINKING A COFFEE IN DALLASTOWN PENNSYLVANIA! HAVE A DAY,!
Wet all day and tomorrow but in the 50s heading up near 70 for an awesome weekend down here in SE PA.....
If that's grey pvc, don't run water through it. This is for electrical wires so it has lead in the plastic. only use white for water.
It’s just a sleeve, a conduit the water line itself will run through it
@@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans ok I just making sure, I like you and your family and don't want anything happen to you.
Nice work Mike.
It looked more like Melissa was the supervisor......she was the one leaning a the shovel! LOL Ty is the worker.
Pretty cool to see your big supervisor out there today. He will be running the equipment before you know it.
Thank you for the video
We have been getting “Hello Fresh” for about a year now.. always delicious
Smart move on the conduit for the future water line. Weather here is bi-polar, 70° to 31°, flooding, t storms, sun, tornadoes and early am SNOW FLURRIES!!!!!
Looking good mike.
Are you planning on installing a floor drain connected to the downspouts in the new building for getting rid of the snow from the machines and for washing the equipment. With the radiant floor heat you will have thawing snow and puddles all over the floor.
I love the time change too Mike! Great video as always!
I was expecting Mike to say don’t worry Melissa your plumbers crack won’t show I don’t have the wide angle lens on! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 just a little humor! ✌️
From Northern Vermont
You the MOTOR MIKE!
You should have named this video “watch me build my driveway” because I expected an explanation as to why we need Geotextile fabric
Good morning from NC! You got a lot done in an evening’s work. I have learned quite a bit about small details watching this process - thanks for that. It is nice watching your vision emerge from the original status. Ty does a good job supervising - I heard him tell you something, maybe you weren’t doing it right? 😉😄
Glad Ty said quit jibber jabbing and run that machine
Supervisor Ty is a hoot! Loved how he got into the Hello Fresh ad reading the menu. That boy is a keeper.
You might get one more snow we did 7 inches in Sioux falls SD its melting pretty good now, I told everyone it came in like a lamb its going out like a lion and it did, Spring is finally coming , YAH HOO
I'd go with hemlock and maybe a few burning bushes, great looking and no maintenance
Mellissa loves you.
That little Tye is going to be driving that tractor soon, by the end of the decade I bet.
Some severe weather in store for us here in Mt Pleasant SC (Charleston)... Great progress on the building!
