Chris, I don't what is more impressive, your grading work or the video production. Thank you for sharing another great video. Your friend from Rougemont.
To be able to keep an overall picture of the grade of the entire job in your head while moving dirt around is a good skill. I also like the drone footage.
I liked the sped up footage with the high elevation point. It is something different for you. Great Job. Thanks all the videos and the time out of your day for doing them. I have seen maybe 70 or so of them and I find your thoughts on how to do thing and the way to do thing very interesting. Nice to see someone still thinks things through before just doooooinnnng.
Good use of cameras and drone bro, all make for excellent viewing. 77f here in my town at present but we are in summer, could be near 90 next week they say.
Yeah we are preparing for a flood down here on the MS gulf coast, we use 2” and 3” trash pumps and fire hoses to clean out the mud and sand that washes in, those things can do a lot better job than a pressure washer with the right nozzle, hell we even do the county’s job for them and clean out the culverts with the hoses, takes the stain of that mud off of anything
LOL I just saw a photo of Chris and i think Justin in some Volvo contest i think way back must be 10 years or more ago..... now look how successful they are. Congrats on all of the success
Next item mounted on Chris's service truck. A large heavy duty commercial water pump with a fire hose on a reel with spare extension hose to clean the equipment when he plays in the mud for a week or more 😂😂😂😎 Or they could build a trailer for it.
You had to say “it’s another 60 degree January day”... ☃️ it just took me 2 hours to drive home in the snow here in Chicago!☃️ I need to visit my cousins in NC
O yeah he jinx us down here. In Mississippi gulf coast we were supposed to be 74 today. It was 64. Next week I am seeing low 50s high 40s most of the week with lows in the 20s to low 30s
The Newfies would love your 60 degree days lol. This came through yesterday dumping 3 feet of snow in 12 hours...th-cam.com/video/Z6YPh4IMMEg/w-d-xo.html
Great video as always you are putting that drone to work, thank you it adds some nice perspective. I had to catch a screenshot of you with your feet up,! I plan to share that with my father and brother. I am sure they would enjoy it. :-)
Not being a dirt worker or heavy eq operator I have come to realize that dirt work is much more a mental skill than operating skill. You have to be able to envision what the end result will be in order for any of the dirt moving to make sense.
One thing for sure Chris , Ya got some good training working with that "Sand" next time another job like this one comes up !! lolol.... You'll already have somewhat of an idea of how it's gonna play out, cause that one was kinda tricky there !! You guys kicked it right in the ass today !! Have a Great Evening Man !!
Were expecting up to 10 inches of that white stuff this weekend. It's a balmy 5 degrees right now. Last weekend it was in the fifties. This is in upstate New York. Go figure. 🤔🤔🤔
Would a bigger articulated dump truck make your jobs easier or be more of a hassle because of the address size and weight for transporting to job sites?
What do you mean gitterdunnnn by Friday???? It IS Friday!!! Hahaha. That job takes patience, that’s for sure! It will be really nice when it is done. Be nice to see what it is like 1 and then 2 years from now. I’m sure glad you have the problem of just a little too much work to do, rather than not enough work to do! I believe you will get a significant portion, if not all you need, done by Friday just as you say! Thanks for sharing with us!
All that sand....... All the land owner needs now is a few palm trees a few straw huts and a tasty beverage with one of those tiny umbrellas while lying in a recliner taking in all your handywork. West palm beach won't have anything on that fella..........
I think dry material even in sand with the rain this year is still wet haha. I really enjoy the drone footage mixed in. Where are you getting your copyright free music from. I pay LumaFusion $9.99 a month for what’s supposed to be copyright free music and my last 2 videos have been demonetized because of a song not being copyright free and by the time I can mute it I have lost my revenue on views. So frustrating.
Really coming together! I'm having trouble seeing how tall the berms are. They look way too short for a rifle range backdrop. I guess it's just perspective, because I think I remember you saying that the back of the range is like 10' to 15' tall. Neat stuff! Thanks.

You use your time wisely that for sure. A good operater is great. But a person that. An plan and carry out a job in a timely manor is worth his weight in gold.
Fish habitat has to be at least that deep. Should have an even deeper area with stumps in it for spawning. That's so you can use waverunners on it if you want without worrying about hit a stump if you snorkel the waverunner.
That chalky lookin stuff on your paint is alkali ......... it comes off real easy with vinegar ...... mix a gallon of vinegar with 4 gallons of water .......... get a wash mitt an soak it with the vinegar water ....... about 10 mins ....then wash it off ........ you should be done .
Hey Chris. Im 20 right now and I really want to get my feet wet in some heavy equipment jobs. If you have the time I would love for you to answer couple of questions. ... Does this job ever get "boring" to you? How and where does a young whippersnapper like me start in this line of business? Is it a matter of experience or connection? Thanks
Great video's you and some nice music. I live in Lancaster England. My friends play in a band called Massive Wagons check them out I think you will like them. One of the their albums Full Nelson
Chris, I don't what is more impressive, your grading work or the video production. Thank you for sharing another great video. Your friend from Rougemont.
My toddler loved that. He’s shouting ‘splashy splashy splashy’! Loved the laid back, feet up operator position!

Love the drone shot, it really shows what you’re doing! 👍👍

One thing I noticed with hauling all of that sand is it's polishing the inside of the haul truck's dump box. Never seen it so shiny.
That haul truck was one of your best investments ,keeps you moving dirt with wet grounds.
Stay safe
Dwayne
It’s starting to all come together. Looking good
Great video. Nice variety of views.
Good use of cameras and drone bro, all make for excellent viewing. 77f here in my town at present but we are in summer, could be near 90 next week they say.
Your weather is nice... it was 31 degrees Fahrenheit here today, and 18" of snow on the ground. Four inches new this morning.
Weather looks great,at least you have liquid water!
Very swampy conditions Chris ⚠️ nice drone footage Letsdig18 👍👌

Another great video Chris.
Awesome video Chris can’t wait to see it finished
i know you have too be glad that the sand is done. never seen so much in my life. nice work.
Chris, I think you're getting the hang of this editing thing. I feel like I just watched a music video on MTV when you went to the drone. lol

Hey Chris those are great drone shots.....
You have a very cool job!!!
That area would be great as a motocross track!

He won’t be sitting with the windows open on Monday. Our balmy January weather is about to end.

Drone footage was super neat. Can see the site alot better.

11:00 like a boss Chris haha 👍👍
Chris, I like the look from overhead! It looks like remote control toys, I can see your love for the excavator
Hello Chris do you publish video in the order of the jobs? It sounds to mee that I had seen the end of the pond last week??? :)
Nice drone shot 👍🏻
Where is your life jacket? Nice video of that aqua digging job. ;-)
Would a bigger articulated dump truck make your jobs easier or be more of a hassle because of the address size and weight for transporting to job sites?
Does the water table drop much in the summer months in that sandy soil?
You have a wet and warm winter.
Is it normal there?
When you are working in the water do you grease more frequently?
Cool drone shots.
if you dont want the rain send it to here Australia to help with the fires
What kind of drone do you have?
Great video. Insane footage
love a sandy beach in the middle of no where
What do you mean gitterdunnnn by Friday???? It IS Friday!!! Hahaha.
That job takes patience, that’s for sure! It will be really nice when it is done. Be nice to see what it is like 1 and then 2 years from now.

I would like to see the pond after the water has a chance to settle down and is clean.
Chris, Just wondering if all the gritty water has damaged any pins, undercarriage, etc. Do you ever get to work in dry conditions?
What drone are you using Chris?
would love to see when grass is up and pond is in good shape
At least the bed of the truck is nice and shinny!!!!!!
The drone footage looked like they were working in Tonka Land.
Yeah! The detail on the little operator figurine was fantastic!
get a piece of foam pipe insulation put it on the top of the window for a nice foot rest
For as deep as you dug this pond out the water level seems not to drop much.
Jim Long the water table is really high in that area.
Good video and work.In From the Viking in Denmark,

Good job today Chris. I know the dirty equipment is bugging you🙂
I need some trees taken out and some dirt work done, can you run up to vancouver island to handle this for me? Got some big ass trees up hereL. OL
Hey geter done I like to hear you happy
Really coming together! I'm having trouble seeing how tall the berms are. They look way too short for a rifle range backdrop. I guess it's just perspective, because I think I remember you saying that the back of the range is like 10' to 15' tall.
Neat stuff!
Thanks.
You should write into the contract that you have lifetime free fishing rights at the pond when done.
In your grading video what happened to the pistol range berms?
“After his last plunge into the murky depths of the glory hole his Dipper was indeed 50 shades of Grey...”

Greetings from Scotland 🏴 and Lang may yer lum reek Chris 👍🏽😉
Right when the drone footage sped up, it looked like a video of an RC excavator and truck.
Water pump and a fire hose - Charlie springs to mind.
Why do you want to trap water on the truck?
Is this a private or public project? I haven't seen it mentioned in the previous vids.
private
@@letsdig18 Thanks!
Title of this one should be-- How to clean out the box of a haul truck. It now shines. 😎
Ever find any artifacts?
Chris is this a shooting range for the public?
private
That pond look a whole lot bigger
Micheal Martin hes dug it out to be doubled in size! Looks great!
Ha ha ha I didn't realize that Volvo excavator came with a recliner. And Chris calls it work. Lol God bless
It was -15 below zero this morning and starting to snow here in northern MN. Suppose to get up to 10 inches of the white stuff. Envy you.
Wonder why they need that pond so deep. Perhaps going scuba diving. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😨👍🇺🇸
Excellent timing
You use your time wisely that for sure. A good operater is great. But a person that. An plan and carry out a job in a timely manor is worth his weight in gold.
I wish it was 60 it’s in the 20s here in nj can’t really complain cause I’m down with an injury so I’m now out it working
What happening about pond digging job you had to stop as volvo not got long enough reach as to muddy
did I miss something ? you've a 160, a 220 and a 250?
correct
Surprised you don’t have a pump mounted on a trailer
I wanna see this all finished
CRK Productions so does Chris!
Good job
Why did they want the pond 10’ deep? Isn’t that pretty deep for a pond? I’m a California girl so I really don’t have any pond knowledge🤣🤣
Fish habitat has to be at least that deep.
Should have an even deeper area with stumps in it for spawning.
That's so you can use waverunners on it if you want without worrying about hit a stump if you snorkel the waverunner.
Chris, I blame you for flat earth!

You need a retired fire truck to wash down afterwards. How cool would that be!!!!
I understand why you don't use an engineer on all the jobs elevation stuff, you use your HERO eye balls.
Bad weather is coming y'alls way be careful hope it misses ya
thats simalar sand that they get out of the cranberry flats in New Jersey
Haul truck looked different for some reason
Great video's you and some nice music. I live in Lancaster England. My friends play in a band called Massive Wagons check them out I think you will like them. One of the their albums Full Nelson
Are you trying to jinx us southerners. If you are its coming.
Do you miss the dust of summer? I do.
You could get you a gwyenth paltrow candle to put in your cab. Lol
You would need a tailgate on the bed,
one that opens automatically when you tip.
Your probably wet sanding the paint off of the boom
I clicked on it because I thought it was an R/C thing.
First, ever
michael cowhey you’ll always be first in our hearts, Michael. Keep fighting the fight.
