Just found your channel, subscribed, and then realized you haven’t posted in 7 months. Your videos are great. Hope all is well and you get back to uploading your work. I’ll be on the lookout!
Really enjoyed watching the excavator clearing trees and stacking them so efficiently using that pincher blade grappler. I guess the local government doesn't allow you to burn the trash limbs. Hauling off all that debris adds a lot of cost to a job. Perhaps time was a factor. When we logged our farm I burned many of the limb piles after they aged 30 days. One of the big piles I left to grow up into a marvelous habitat for deer, rabbits and quail. Now we enjoy seeing all these critters most everyday as we never hunt them or allow others to hunt them. We have witnessed many births of twin fawns and once triplets. I still have about 11 acres to clear. I never considered an excavator. On the other hand the cost to clear this Homesite must have been many thousands of dollars. No one in my area would consider that kind of extravaganze to clear land. Every now and then I see someone spend lavasly to construct a nice pond.
Are you self taught? I am a Lineman, work for the local utility. But do landscaping/pools on the weekend. I have a john deere 27d, looking to get a skidsteer around june. Really enjoy your channel.
Great work. Stuck in the pipeline life wish I could go full time on my own like you have here. I do side work but make too much money for the family with pipeline and can't risk a chance. Maybe when I get closer to retirement. Business is hard but you have something to be proud of.
I’m trying to figure out how you made any money paying all those dump fees. I’m in Michigan I wish we had pine forests all hard woods in these sticks. 6-8” hickory on the stump will pull my cat 320 around.
Learning to run 1 & being able operate 1 is 2 different things. I seen people you just can't teach to operate equipment. Coming from 37 year experienced on some biggest equipment on planet earth as starting out as a Equipment operator to Day shift Mine Foreman about every job in between. Before I retired I still was learning something new about every day. I lost on ice 300 loaded ton rock tks slide clear bottom hill doing few donuts all the way down did that a couple times Hit hidden logs on D-10 dozers slide clear bottom hill. Been covered up by blast went wrong. I was in engine compartment of elect. shovel that time working on it, A steel I beam saved me from huge Boulder, I was covered in dust, rock but not 1 scratch. Had big boulder fall from highwall right where I standing only minute ago during ice & thaw yearly cycle. My luck was running out. 37 years was enough. Personally I like Cat equipment we appear had better luck with them than any others. Plus extra clean moisture free good Diesel Fuel is very important. Maintenance by the book helps a lot. Plus real good operators worth there weight in gold, Get job done without tearing up your equipment. Plus safety important too. Like what this guy doing I seen them trees snap & fall back upon cab of equipment more than a few times.
If he is charging you 70 cyd per load for that truck, you are getting ripped off! That truck is capable of 32 cyd at the most. Don’t believe me, measure it.
@@TheToddfamily At 50 CYD/load billing, owners are getting ripped off. It’s up to the PM to be honest, and owners to verify if paying hub the CYD. Been in the business since 1986. Don’t believe me? Just flatten top of average load and measure it. Most contractors think their truck is like their dick and is way bigger than they really are.
Great job running the mini excavator

Good job
Keep making videos
Great video! Wish there was more content, hope all is well.
Just curious, what’s this cost to do ? Do you charge by the hour or acre ?
also curious
How much does a job of this scale cost? Does the general contractor hire the guy who takes the full logs?
Nice
Nice work bro
Where did you go?The EPA caught up with you?
Trick is learn operation of equipment without tearing equipment all to pieces. I ran into rocks before D-11 R only move it maybe 1/8 ".
How does your f450 feel when you’re pulling that e85?
if i went into the clearing biz, would you recommend mulching, dozing, or excavator style clearing? Im in South Fl
What happened with the excavating company ? Do you have a new channel ?
I’m trying to figure out how you made any money paying all those dump fees. I’m in Michigan I wish we had pine forests all hard woods in these sticks. 6-8” hickory on the stump will pull my cat 320 around.
Been there done that before.
When will you make more videos ?
About to do this in Wakulla
Nice! It’s so much fun to see the progress. Wakulla is nice because of the more sandy soil!
This will be our first time ever doing it so we are going to give it a try. @@TheToddfamily
Where do you dispose of all the stumps lol
Usually go to construction and demolition landfill. All brush and stumps are eventually fed through a horizontal or tub grinder.
Awesome video. I subscribed. 🔔my way lol.
Who came because of Darrius Anderson
Nice video, how much would you charge to clear an acre
Who’s been subscribe to this channel since the first video me 😝
I'm waiting for your giveaway result bro
Whats the biggest job you were able to do by yourself?
@@TheToddfamily awesome! How long did that take you to clear and burn?
Is it hard to control a bulldozer?
