I'm sure your dad would not build a house that permanently smell like TOBACCO. Seeing how that building. Was used to cure TOBACCO BACK IN THE DAY and all the wood smells. Yes it. Still smells Chris said it did.
@@maryschillinger2909 Oh yes he would find a use for those boards. Smelly matters not.

Smell dont matter for form boards. Also, concrete form boards can be reused, if you take time to disassemble.

Guarantee your dad was born about 1920 area. Grew up through the depression, likely poor like mine, and passed the “save a buck” mentality to his kids. AKA you and me. Sure stuck with me, I always saved every penny. Retired at 55 and still salvage stuff, even though I can afford to buy anything I want new. Never had a mortgage either. Try teaching that mentality to this generation, who’s mentality is “I want the best and I WANT it NOW!
@@tomrogers9467 Yepp...those nails he pulled out of that used lumber...he would beat back straight with his claw hammer. If he could bend them back into good useable shape he would re-use those Old nails. On form boards bracing ect... kept the old used nails seperate from the new nails in old metal empty Chase and Sanborn coffee cans. And yes we drank our homemade ice tea out of old mayonaise...and peanut butter and jelly jars. I forget the brand it was but there was this particular jelly they sold and it was in an actual drinking glass...it was moms favorite Sunday drink ware for after Church Sunday pot roast.👍✌💯% old school.🤣
The next time I have to re-roof my house, I'm gonna hire you to peel the old shingles off. Your finesse with that machine is unparalleled. It's like an extension of your hands.
I hate leaking roots. I kept a 4’ piece of 128 pair phone trunk line in my truck with the middle all torn up and exposed. If a new guy was digging, I’d wait until he took a break, jump down in the trench and stick both ends into the side of the cut. Wait till he came back, look in the trench and yell “holy crap, look what you cut”. Piece of old cable - free. Reaction of the operator - priceless!
I'm a operator as well and this fella here is a really good operator. I enjoy watching your videos from down here in what we call Memphissippi. DeSoto County Mississippi and Shelby County Tennessee
Holy Molly, at 16 seconds posted I actually copped the number one like and comment. On one of Chris's vids that's the Holy Grail of likes. I automatically know it's going to be another excellent adventure with him at the controls.
Demolition these days involves a great deal of segregation of different materials due to ridiculously high tipping fees. Steel will be sold, cementitious material can be crushed and recycled, wood costs less to tip than “garbage” , in my area.
I swear I believe you could pull hen's teeth with that machine , I love watching you work, be safe out there , and when are you going to get Betty out on a job lol i know you didnt buy her to look at ,
Made short work of those small buildings bro, was half expecting some critters to come running out but nutt'n. Made a nice job of pealing the tin off though. Safe travels up your way
I’m not being critical but it’s very sad to see all of the recyclable wood being destroyed when it could be used for other building projects. I understand the economics bus surely someone could have taken those buildings down for the trussses and 2by’s.
I noticed the lady at the beginning of the video. Then the freezer, then the range. Where is her husband going to stay when he gets into trouble from now on? :)
Funny how nervous Chris got when the girl went behind the 160 with her phone. I would have also been nervous, you can't do anything without looking all over with each swing.
After watching the roof come off.............The next challenge in the community has to be either peeling an orange or painting the sidings on a new build with a 2 inch oaintbrush :)
Your skill is mesmerizing. Watching you put a single bucket tooth in that chimney to take it down, pulling off the sheet metal separately, etc... I bet you could tie your shoe with it if you really put your mind to it.
Damn leaking roots !! Gotta watch for those, they will sneak up on ya sometimes !! lolol...Peeling that metal off , like opening a can of sardines !! lolol... Nice quick little job.. Well done as always Chris, Ol Girl don't need to be walking around the back of the machine, make a Man nerves twitch !! lololol... Have a Great Evening Chris, Great as always !! On too the Next.....
Yeah buddy! Chris, you just about got this demo thing down pat. Hey, if you try your hand at automobile repo work make sure you get some video of that.
With the price of lumber what it is these days, I'd be checking every plank & frame for rot & termites & putting the sound stuff on Craig's List (I'm only half joking - just paid out £3,200 for new doors, architrave & skirting for a 3 bedroom house refurbishment - would have been half that a year ago...)
22:15 A rare Black Water Root is spotted in the wild. A cousin to the common White Water Root. The Red Water Root and the Blue Water Root are domesticated species.
If Johnny Jett from Barnwood Builders can take the tin off a roof with a fork lift surely a man of your talent can remove the tin roof with your Thumb with no problems. Keep up the good work I I’ll be 👁
I know that was fun, if not for you, it was for me to just watch. Brought back memories of my Tonka toy excavator and destroying my sister's Barbie house.
This day is a mix to work. Trees to fell and old Bulding to demolish. And this all can you very good. To separate Brick, Sheet and wood however. In this video is to see this work make much Dust. And beside is a water pipe to close. Give it a continuation from this video???
Quite a bit of metal there. Kinda messy to load up but money is money. I wonder how he can afford to take anything down if he is salvaging metal. Interesting little job Chris

As expected you both gentled and powered thru this job. Such delicacy with those wicked jaws. Your neighbours are lucky to get you.
I can't believe how easy you made it look to separate the steel from wood . :-)
interesting pruning saw! Always amazed at the precision you have when peeling off the sheet metal from the walls and roof.
When restoration isn't feasible, metal reclamation is the best alternative. Neighbor helping neighbor! 💕💕
Funny, since I have pickup, I get calls to pickup metal scrap. Its up to 8 cents/lb now... just enough to cover tank of gas :(
From the pond up keeper to the house wrecker nice change of life and enjoy yourself again.
love how precise you are in these demolition jobs.. separating all the metal and not just flattening it all, making a big mess, skills
You make it look so easy, just like pulling the wrapping of of a stick of butter.

Delicately violent!!!! I would love to have that cedar tree for the mill!! We do t get alot of them around me and it's always nice to saw them!
I never get tired of watching you smash and crush buildings. Keep em coming.
The veritable skills of a surgeon... wow
Still impressed with the fineness you have with such a big machine
I read this comment just as he was smashing the chest freezer flat lol
I'm a operator as well and this fella here is a really good operator. I enjoy watching your videos from down here in what we call Memphissippi. DeSoto County Mississippi and Shelby County Tennessee
I love how the cow just hangs out watching all this. So chill…..
Ok….one minute later…that’s not a cow…

Nice the way you separate materials -wood, steel and concrete- as you demo those buildings, Chris!

I want to see him pop my beer cap with it. Bet he can, too. I’m buying!
Sweet, that's nice of you to help out your neighbor, thanks for another great video Chris always looking forward to another one
I’m sure he’s getting paid for it.
Made short work of those small buildings bro, was half expecting some critters to come running out but nutt'n. Made a nice job of pealing the tin off though. Safe travels up your way
Chris it was amazing how you were able to peel the roofing and siding with ease! Great video! Thanks for sharing. Kevin

Larry Kessler buzz off take your hate some place else. Haters will hate because they have nothing else to do.
@@maryschillinger2909 hate??? I just made an observation. Seems you may have misunderstood my post.
@@larrykessler3199
Liability issues have screwed that up.
What do you hate more, the tree roots that leak or the tree roots that spark?
The ones that leak natural gas.
@@keith0alan or all 3 at once add in a phone line for added fun
I love watching you do demo work in that machine.... savage. Controlled but savage :)
I noticed the lady at the beginning of the video. Then the freezer, then the range. Where is her husband going to stay when he gets into trouble from now on? :)
17:00 - Sometimes we do things just because we can, and because it's fun. 😂
Funny how nervous Chris got when the girl went behind the 160 with her phone. I would have also been nervous, you can't do anything without looking all over with each swing.
His situational awareness & sense of space is why his machines are so immaculate at the rear. I wager he'd have made a superb helicopter pilot.
One wonders if it was Karen?
Man that would be a great job for Big Betty....Back in the day, the demo contractors in my area used Cat 955 /977's before excavators became the norm.
Yes indeed Chris, always something!!
The Ole water root
Owner: do I need to move the old horse trailer ?
Chris: No, as long as it’s not in the building, it’ll be fine
That’s confidence. He didn’t even move the horse trailer. Great job dismantling the barns. Very impressive.
I was hoping that you would use the whole tree to drop onto the house or barn. Maybe to see what damage the tree would have done.
Your grandpa would be proud of you taking that metal off like that and salvaging it. Enjoyed the video. Quick work!!
After watching the roof come off.............The next challenge in the community has to be either peeling an orange or painting the sidings on a new build with a 2 inch oaintbrush :)
Love your hability Chris .
It’s like viewing poetic chaos at work!
That's how you make a compact freezer! LOL.. I think really enjoy this over ponds! :)
there is something strangely therapeutic watching you remove that tin as easily as opening a can of sardines.
cheers from Louisiana.
Watching buildings get destroyed never gets old.
Hi Chris hope you didn’t cut the water supply off to the neighbour ….I heard he gets quite upset sometimes 😂😂😂😂
A clear case of breaking and entering! You make it look easier than it is!
Chris you should get a metal fabricator to weld on a (Here's Johnny) on the face edge of your buckets.
“Johnny’s Home”
I luv how that machine makes that stuff look like tin foil, nice job Chris 👍
That was quick work. 1 2 3 freezer gone, Must have been a barndominium with kitchen and water. Didn't even move horse trailer. Good old barn dust.
Amazing operator!!!
Keep the videos coming,and I really enjoy when you work with other You Tubers!
Great job tearing down and a lot of metal
Sweet double demo job. 🍻
Smooth operator !!!! 🤟🤟
Nice of you to save the tin roofing! That stuff id getting expensive! 😜
Interesting video-"A root with a leak"- I like that.
Your skill is mesmerizing. Watching you put a single bucket tooth in that chimney to take it down, pulling off the sheet metal separately, etc... I bet you could tie your shoe with it if you really put your mind to it.
Bless You at approximately the 14 minute mark !
great job again Chris!, I would have had that scattered from hell to breakfast!
You make my want to rent a excavator just to play with but the landlord would most likely not like it. lol
Occasionally I need to rent a small backhoe loader. I attribute half the cost to “entertainment”.
New excavator challenge: who can take the tin off a roof with out damaging the purlins. Bonus points for each reusable sheet.
Bonus round... how about pulling the nails with the thumb.
@@davehigdon6295 🤣🤣😂 good idea
Must also fold the sheets over onto each other, Johnny Jett style
Great job...from Argentina...
Keep it up...
The tinted screen makes a whole lot of difference.
Enjoyed.
Damn leaking roots !! Gotta watch for those, they will sneak up on ya sometimes !! lolol...Peeling that metal off , like opening a can of sardines !! lolol... Nice quick little job.. Well done as always Chris, Ol Girl don't need to be walking around the back of the machine, make a Man nerves twitch !! lololol... Have a Great Evening Chris, Great as always !! On too the Next.....
man that is some wicked skill at 2:38 love how you did that
A job very well done Congratulations
To think that your Gothic splendour with its witch's hat and tower, isn't much better than that old shed :-)
That was some good reusable tin on the sides. It is a throw away dig a hole and bury it world...
You are getting quite good driving the digger now. Lol 😆
A "leaking root !" I love it !!
Smash that shit !
Hi Chris.
That looked like fun.
A little bit of several different things. Lol
Nice work.
Ed from chicago.
Thanks for crushing the freezer - that was cool to watch.
Yeah buddy! Chris, you just about got this demo thing down pat. Hey, if you try your hand at automobile repo work make sure you get some video of that.
Nice can opener ya got there
God bless you 😃
It has always great video at least you didn't strike oil little water is an easy fix 🤣🤣
good video thank you 👍👍👍
Your excellent work, made more work without having to go far. That's a great issue you have sometimes.
Metal, alot, nice 👌
Good job
13:55 bless you chris
Benefits of having a neighbor with heavy equipment... good job.
Great work man!
No Chris you had it right the first time "We are going to tare down a barn", were right behind you buddy.
Dude a surgeon with that joint.
Not the freezer to? LOL

Just a question for ya. Do you ever walk through the houses and barns you tear down. I collect lanterns and would be interested in what you find. Thks
22:15 A rare Black Water Root is spotted in the wild. A cousin to the common White Water Root. The Red Water Root and the Blue Water Root are domesticated species.
Good morning to you Chris
What the owner should of done is taken all the tin of the barn before you knocked it down
Great video Chris 🇺🇲
Impressive maneuvering around Cows & Horse Trailer. You’d be Steady with Brain Surgery.😬👍
If Johnny Jett from Barnwood Builders can take the tin off a roof with a fork lift surely a man of your talent can remove the tin roof with your Thumb with no problems.
Keep up the good work I I’ll be 👁
I never saw a 30 ton can opener!
You're such a nice neighbour. Do all that work for them.

It is always a bad thing when the tree roots start leaking. Lol
