Easily the most informative and interesting video of any of the Tesla factories I’ve seen since last year. Sorry Jason Yang, you’ve been topped today 😊. Thank you taking the time to educate us, and point out the details, which I often miss because there is so much to see and everything looks tiny even on a large screen TV. 🙏
Nice job Joe! Love the infographics. Like that you fly (or zoom) lower to see what's going on better. Nice that you pause so we can see what the equipment is doing. Progress is amazing, and you are doing a great job capturing it. Thanks for taking so much time out of your day to put all this together for us! Much appreciated.
I had just watched the 4K video from awesome Jeff Roberts and I thought, hm, let's check this out anyways... Love the info graphics and commentary! So interesting to see how it takes shape over time!
qorje thank you ... Jeff and I frequently meet up at the site to fly our drones. I think we give different aspects to what is going on and compliment each other.
It looks to me like they finally are making a much shorter route for the hauling trucks by bridging across the gap at the first left turn on the paved road. It will save a lot of time spent needlessly going way around the east side of the property. Way to go. I was suggesting this to my wife since the start. They should soon be able to drive straight in.
Just want to point out the flood drains at time stamp 3:50 near the the over pass those ponds they are filling were dug to assist with flooding. Now that they are filling them up with dirt where will the water go, currently the project area is below those flood ducts...
Thanks much, Joe. I really appreciate your before and after views. Can you try and capture the NOISE in a video some day soon. I worked highway construction as State engineering inspector many, many long years ago when the Interstate highway system was first beginning. Did density testing on all the dirt fill sections and watched to make sure the contractor didn’t try and hide big tree stumps in the grade. Kept those big sheepsfoot compactors rolling. If grade didn’t make standards, highway would deteriorate and fail many years later.
I don't remember the whole story since it's been awhile. We had a long section of I90 that had to be completely redone way before it's time due to incorrect compaction.
Very educational on the GeoTextile materiel. In earlier videos, I was wondering if that stuff, which I thought was plastic sheeting, was temporary. Awesome footage! Thank you for sharing this with us!
@@JoeTegtmeyer hi Joe, i lavished you with complements yesterday because of the amazing information you had managed to obtain and you have again today. But if you go to that extent of hard work is it too much to ask that you leave the information up on the screen long enough to read. I dont see what the problem is in doing that. As i told you i have have had the same feedback from others who I've recommended your channel to. It takes away the enjoyment when you have to rewind back and forth to complete reading the fabulous content. Please just slow it down and leave the info up longer. Thanks a lot though, i throughly enjoyed today's installment. Looking forward to tomorrow already
@@aussie_al Thanks for the input. I'm trying to find a balance between those who say my videos and the information on the screen is too long and to shorten it down and speed up the changes between slides and those asking to make them longer and leave information on the screen longer. It seems I just cannot win but will keep trying.
in documents filed with the del valle independent school district tesla stated the following : Existing Property : Existing property is owned by Martin Marietta and includes a concrete batch plant and material extraction associated with the concrete batch operations. The existing property includes miscellaneous improvements and tangible personal property including nine(9) buildings totaling approximately 45,250 square feet, access roads, tanks including septic, sheds, conveyors, and silos. The existing property also includes high-voltage transmission towers and underground natural gas pipelines within easements. All existing property is specifically excluded from this application; is not owned by the Applicant; and will be relocated from the project site. Looks like the power lines and the underground natural gas pipeline will be removed from the site on long term.
Great video! Do they have a site office and any portable cabins yet tucked away in a corner? I love they way the all appear to know what they're doing and where to go, without being told. Like ants. I expect they're on walkie-talkies non-stop.
Somebody needs to go to the county seat and look at the records for the original mine. It was left in terrible shape, with many parts well below the original grade. How much material was removed? In the US, mine owners are supposed to restore the original surface land. What happened?
Thank you Joe. I look forward to your videos and especially the detailed explanations and the before and after pictures. I would like to make a suggestion if you don’t mind. I tried to “ring the bell” but I get an error from TH-cam stating that your content was made for kids and that option was not available for your channel. Please fix that. I don’t want to miss any if your content.
Hello Joe and thank you for the very insightful content. I wanted to ask who you think I could contact to get my 5 belly dump trailers in moving earth for Tesla. Any tips are helpful
Great Video Joe, good smooth flying and interesting information. They are working so fast! Can I suggest that you label and/or title your videos with morning/evening as they get so much done each day?
Grato por fazer essas filmagens por Drone e aqui no Brasil chamamos de Zangão ou Mugango, etc... depende da Região do meu país Brasil lindo por dominar a natureza e é belo abençoado por Deus ( o Criador de tudo). Paz imaculada continue postando espero um dia que as barreiras de fronteiras sejam desnecessárias pelo o despertar da consciência da humanidade toda como diz Jesus o Pai dos Deuses todo joelho dobrará, logo conclui-se que todos seremos anjos, arcanjos, etc... assim amaremos uns aos outros melhor e não precisará mais de muros...

David Miller you are welcome!
Thanks for putting efforts into the comments! I was convinced before these membranes were used for soil stabilization.
etbadaboum thx
Very well done. Informative research and some great comparisons to show how much work has been done.

Every video you make is better than the last. I learn new things which each one. Great job!

Wow Joe that was a lot of homework for you great job my friend!
Thanks ... I'm learning a lot too!
Joe Tegtmeyer I hope it’s somewhat enjoyable
@@gardnerpost6529 I'm having a lot of fun!
Joe Tegtmeyer I know our community really appreciates it they are very hungry for this information
Thanks for explaining some things and for keeping us updated!

My drone doesn't have a microphone as it would just sound like propellers I bet. Not sure how to get any sounds that would do the work justice.
I don't remember the whole story since it's been awhile. We had a long section of I90 that had to be completely redone way before it's time due to incorrect compaction.
@@jbbuzzable My next video will cover compacting soil so stay tuned!
@@JoeTegtmeyer Nice! I'm looking forward to that one. It is impossible to tell what types of soils they are working with just drone videos.
Best video yet Joe. Very informative and satisfying. Please keep it up!
Thanks ... I'm learning as I go!
Very educational on the GeoTextile materiel. In earlier videos, I was wondering if that stuff, which I thought was plastic sheeting, was temporary. Awesome footage! Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thanks .. I learned about it too so thought I'd share!
Great research Joe! Love the attention to detail and together we “Keep Dirt Interesting!” - don’t take my t-shirt idea! Lol, nice video!!
thanks! Sorry I missed you today.
Joe Tegtmeyer Indeed - was out earlier than I thought I’d be, but not early enough!

@@JoeTegtmeyer Don't worry about people who are too lazy to press the pause button.
Very informative - thanks for all of the details

That will be good. Those darn power lines are in the way. They take up too much room that could be utilized into another production line. LOL
Hero! This is more than we deserve.

7:24 great compaction going on!

those infogfx are wonderful! very good job.
Excellent video. Thanks!
Jim McCall thank you!
Great job! Need more.
indavietual working on it!
Great video Joe. Thanks for all the info too!

Thanks .. I just made the change ... see if that works now.
Great job on the research and info
It's a lot of fun for me and glad it is of use to others too!
Excellent. The black membrane material was explained and how they prevent settling and washouts. I was curious.
Thanks Jeff
Hello Joe and thank you for the very insightful content. I wanted to ask who you think I could contact to get my 5 belly dump trailers in moving earth for Tesla. Any tips are helpful
I think Martin Marietta is the land reclamation contractor. Call them at the Del Valle office
Wow! Very informative! Thank you! 4:25 is there a channel on the left for the water to flow thru?
12:26 something went wrong there! haha
Great Video Joe, good smooth flying and interesting information. They are working so fast! Can I suggest that you label and/or title your videos with morning/evening as they get so much done each day?
I'll see what I can do ... I do all my videos in the morning right now because its smoother air and not blazing Texas hot!
