that's a bread and butter project right there! appreciate it! I'm glad I've got yours and other guys videos to watch, halfway through the cancer treatments and I woke up no voice today! Y'all stay safe, Keith
bvfdfire1 good to hear you are halfway through. Hang in there man sorry to hear about your voice too. I’m sure it’s always something dealing with that stuff. Appreciate you watching
You got right tools for the job. Retired 75, I need a little bigger mini, kubota k008-3, it works. Love keeping mini in shop. Got a 12' dump trailer. You need Topcon H4C Laser, LS B110W Receiver and B110W blue tooth in cab display. Just use Magnet mounts for receiver, display, no power needed.
I had our old farm planted in loblolly pines for timber. The state of NC paid for most of it and then it kept the land in farm use. They are about 17-18 years old now. Nice job on the little pad. Definitely gotta keep the little dump for jobs just like this. Take care hope your all are well.
Those quick and easy jobs are pretty nice every now and then I bet. Start to finish, all done in time to get home and still have time to mow the yard! Nice video 👍🏻
Yes the little truck is a handy little rig to have around it turned out really good and sloping the sides is the way to go. Just a little reminder that this weekend is mother's day that mines its spoil the beautiful CEO Mrs Elite weekend. Keep up the great videos
You’re right about that Bermuda grass. I have a path between my garden and the shop. During the dormant season it gets packed into the mud and dries like asphalt.... but come Spring, it bounces back like it was never driven over. For areas around the garden and flower beds... I hate Bermuda... but for spaces like this, it can’t be beat! Without the toy truck, you’d been screwed (or cleaning up a big mess) on that job!
Nice tidy job Brandon! The excavator sounds much better with the new pump, and the International was probably glad to go for a run, get the seals wet and the dust off the brakes. Hope you and your family are healthy and Staying Safe. Enjoy the rest of your week buddy! Doug@ the "ranch"
@@mrs.eliteearthworks Hi Mrs. Elite! Hope you're doing well and feeling great. Always a pleasure to hear from you here. Have a great night, keep the "boys" in line, see ya again soon! Doug@ the "ranch"
lakesideranch thank you! Yes the excavator is running great! It runs smoother and cooler than it did before. It was nice to get the international out but it’s definitely no Pete. I just love that truck Peterbilt 😁. Appreciate you watching
Great Video... I've got a similar job to do, we're also buying a 10x14 shed. Except we're gonna do everything by hand, the way we did things back in the day. I've got 2 strong boys. I'm gonna put them to work. Instead of them watching a guy driving an excavator and filming for their Instagram feeds, they will be whining, complaining, sweating, and wielding old fashion hand tools (pick axes, rakes, shovels, wheelbarrows, etc...). 😎💪⚒
First thing I thought, is that the little International hiding behind the mini! I noticed that you broke out the garden hose to wet the gravel to get it compacted, I've noticed in several of your videos that the gravel in your area is always super dry but you're always working in mud. It's basically just the opposite here in Idaho but even though our gravel has moisture in it we still have to water it down to get good compaction for doing any kind of major infrastructure like highways, building pads, etc... Great video Brandon!
Clyde Acor yes that rock always seems dry I have got it before when it was a little wet. Just like to make sure it’s good and compacted. Appreciate you watching
What's the deal with the operator using a rake and a shovel? I think that goes against union policy. Lol. The little truck and the grading bucket saved the day again! Looked good. Stay safe.
You always do nice work Brandon. Thanks for the video. Does your International seem like a quick steering sportscar now? Automatic transmissions can be relaxing, no need to plan shifts or fear traffic, just drive.
Thank you for another one. I see Erin let you borrow her truck! You weren't' banging your foot on the floor feeling for the clutch were you? Good to see that truck - it's a keeper and don't even take up all that much room. Sonny (CT)
👍! You wouldn't want to drive 10 1/2 hrs to bring the International and Mini Ex to Western Kansas to prep for an above ground pool, would you? Couldn't talk Frank into driving up from Mulhall either!
Barkley Gentry maybe in the Pete, the international would take a month to get there. 🤣 Mr Frank is way closer than I am. I’m surprised he didn’t jump all over it lol. Thanks for watching
When I saw that pile of rocks coming off the dump truck I thought that will never fit in there, but it did. Or did you secretly put a few scoops back in the dump truck off cam? ;)
Just did that exact same thing two weeks ago at my own house, 12x18 pad, but by hand! Wish I would’ve rented a mini for that.
Gliderider I was worried at first it was going to be overkill but about 5 mins in I was glad I brought it 🤣. Appreciate the comment

Hi Brandon nice to see the little old International truck having a day out.
Michael A Smith it was fun driving it again. Definitely a handy truck to have around. Appreciate you watching

ArizVern sounds like a nice little setup. Yeah that laser and receiver would do the trick. Appreciate you watching
That shovel and rake work that some may think unnecessary likely gets you a lot of work, nice job pardner
jamesw95 exactly you can really fine tune it that. Thanks for watching

SLC Farms Hi Brian!
SLC Farms nice you can’t beat that plus they are good looking trees. Yes it’s a handy little truck for sure. Appreciate you watching
Hi Mrs.E I see your man is still working hard using hand tools like shovels and rakes. You need to get him a helper 😆
Great video nice to see your little dump truck
Phillip Hogwood thank you! It was fun to get it back out. Appreciate the comment
Those quick and easy jobs are pretty nice every now and then I bet. Start to finish, all done in time to get home and still have time to mow the yard! Nice video 👍🏻
Neil Koch: Dig-Drive-DIY I agree good little filler jobs. Appreciate you watching!

Kenny Mysak yes it is! Definitely worth keeping it around. Yes I will have to do something nice for her! 👍🏻 appreciate the comment
I like the TRUCK CAM!
jeffrey c 👍🏻 I like it too!
Hi Brandon!!😀😀
Those are always nice little jobs when you can knock them out in a short day.
Take care my friend and stay safe and healthy!!😀😀❤❤
Al Dredske thank you! I agree. Same to you appreciate you watching
Nice. I built a shed pad a couple years ago for a lady and have another one coming up soon. Always a fun change of pace.
Thank you! Definitely a fun change just a little filler project. Appreciate you watching

William Harris lol that’s Bermuda grass for you 🤣. Yes I would have. Appreciate you watching as always
It’s a good thing we kept MY dump truck around 😁 #OutlawTruckingWithMrsElite 😎
???? - I thought ALL the equipment was yours? Aren't you 'The Book Keeper' - lol!?
I guess Judas Priest wrote the song "Breaking the Law" with you in mind?
If I remember correctly that’s the truck where
#sugart!tstrucking
Was launched!
If I was you, I would make claim to that fancy Peterbilt over that little sawed off 13 letter shit spreader. (International) lol
DaveC 63 True! I guess I let him keep it 😉
Perfect set up for that job Brandon! Long live the single axle 👊
Full Tilt Grading I agree! Single axle for life! 🤘🏻😁
No sense using the big truck when the baby dump truck can do the job. Great video Brandon.
raylz19 that’s right! Appreciate you watching
Good work, feller.
Steven Tedder thank you!
All we need with that bucket next is rotating head next on the list😁
Louisiana Dirt 218 lol that would be nice! Appreciate you watching
Nice clean job I agree skid-steer would of made a mess. Good choice
Dirt Boss Masonry & Excavating thank you! I thought so even though I didn’t do the grass any favors 😁. Appreciate you watching
Nice tidy job Brandon!

Digginok thank you! Good filler work
that is a very fine job sir,your careing shows
junehunk1 thanks man I try too. Appreciate you watching
That was a quick one, easy to edit. Good job Brandon. Its those little ones that seem to pay the best in the long run.
Joseph Mascioni I agree! People remember that stuff and it could lead to bigger jobs down the road. Appreciate you watching
Something about digging and stone i like, good job, i can dig it!
Al Southern me too 😁. Thanks man appreciate you watching
Brandon - when you first dumped the rock I thought for sure you had too much and would be pulling some out, but it was the perfect amount. Nice job.
Wil Roussos I did too at first lol. Appreciate you watching
Great video. 👍👍
Brewman90 thank you!
Nice, I'm going to be doing the same thing next week for a small 7 by 7 shed in my years. I won't have an excavator though.
Construction Trucks cool yeah a 7 by 7 the excavator would be a bit overkill I would say. Thanks for watching
@@eliteearthworksllc I agree.
Nice working meet
Iwan Deegenaars thanks
Great job Brandon. See the 4 40 air going.
Larry Shedd thank you! 🤣 yes it was
G'day great job mate
Murphy Law hey buddy!

Aww dang it, I thought you would have tail gated the rock into the excavation. Just kidding, great job and have a good night
OffRoad RiverFishing lol it would be a short run. Thank you appreciate you watching
i like that little dump truck
Thank you! It’s very handy
Elite Earthworks LLC your welcome
Nice video bro 👌👌🚧🚧
Iwan Deegenaars thank you!

Blackdog Tractor/Excavator 🤣 it’s how I get my exercise. Yes the little truck is awesome! Appreciate you watching
Recognized that dump site, you were on the other side of it a few months ago Brandon.
barry hansen that’s right! I was going to go check out the wall and see how the grass was coming in. Appreciate you watching Barry
turned out nice and i bet u like driving the ole truck again
thederrick1966 thanks it’s not bad but I love that new Peterbilt 😁
Great job
Thank you!
You always do nice work Brandon. Thanks for the video.
Does your International seem like a quick steering sportscar now? Automatic transmissions can be relaxing, no need to plan shifts or fear traffic, just drive.
David Null thank you! Lol yes it does it’s like driving my pickup, just zip through town 😁. Appreciate you watching as always

SONNY thank you for watching! Lol yes she let me use it for the day. Definitely a different feel from the Peterbilt. Appreciate the comment
SONNY 😎

Silent Epsilon lol nope I just lucked out it all fit. Shows how much it will compact
Dream business!!
Thanks!
Stay healthy.
Mike Nixon thank you! You too!
Were you up towards Springfield last week? Pretty sure I saw you headed west around Mount Vernon.
Andrew Degraffenreid yes I was either getting the excavator or had picked it up
@@eliteearthworksllc yeah, you had the ex.
Andrew Degraffenreid yeah I picked it up from Midwest Tractor just past Halltown
Hey! Why orange marking spray?? Where is the box with PINK marking spray that Mrs. Elite bought???
Stamatis Grozoudis 🤣 she used it all I guess
Very good video 👍
Ekskavatör Avcısı thank you!
good work. how level is the pad? within an inch or?
JMAR Roofing & Home Improvement thank you! It was about 3/4 of an inch low in the one corner so it was close
@@eliteearthworksllc how close do you get it when grading for a house pad?
JMAR Roofing & Home Improvement I shoot for dead on but if it’s 1/2”-3/4” I’m happy
What stopped all those stone from sinking and settling….
It’s put on the hard rocky clay and compacted in
What's the cost for one truck load gravel like that?
$125
Thanks
On a job like this, what do you charge $$??, hourly??
I did my 3 hour minimum charge plus the materials
