Loved your use of Time Lapse. Also loved the shots at the end showing the before and after. This was a tremendous amount of work...and done by a two-man operation. You have really got a gem in the person of Timmy....reliable, trustworthy, great work ethic.
From green to yellow in one long easy step!! Has kept you busy for a week or two, handy being close to home too. For only two employees, you have a very good work rate 👍👍
Awesome Chris !! You guys Kicked that one right in the Ass !! Great to see the Pride you take not only in your work but, in your Machines as well, your one Hell of an Operator Chris, and Timmy is coming along too, you are teaching him well !!! Another Great one !! On to the Next......... Have a Great Evening Man......
Yeah, like You, I believe the Blue Kenworth is a Super Sharp Truck... No mater WHAT trailer is on it... 4:15 😳😎👍✅. A long job it was but most definitely looks Great on the ending Drone shots from. 12:50. on comparing it to “Thee Beginning” 😱👍
Great job on the project, Chris! I watched it from day one to the end. Time lapse is for sure the right editing choice on big projects such as this one!!
I'm a retired electrical design/project manager that worked for a contractor. None of the projects I ever worked on had a site to final grade. It would be awesome to not be told what grade is, install conduits down 3-4' and have them dug up when it finally got to grade. You do very nice work that I am sure is very appreciated by the other trades. Respectfully, Kevin
Don’t know about you Chris but I used to get more job satisfaction from keeping up with multiple tippers all day with a Blade than almost anything else in moving dirt? Especially if the blade was of the smaller variety like yours. You definitely sleep better after a shift like that that’s for sure 😁👍🏼. Terrific final finish as per usual and the drone footage is perfect for showing off the size of the undertaking. Love this channel keep up the great work you guys.
I guess there are 2 things there is no shortage of in the greater Raleigh area.....money and rain. I'm amazed at how much goes into preparing these sites before any building gets started. Does it rain everyday ? You better keep diggin 😎
Chris, we’ve had that dang drizzle over here in Currituck county, last three days. Can’t get any soybeans picked! The project all came together just fine! Looks great bud!!
Skilled people always make everything look so easy. Looks like another fine job.! Dozer and grader work to me is artwork. If you try it you'll know. HaHa
Your videos are improving noticeably. Sped up video of machinery working (thanks for avoiding hard rock music) and great drone shots. Keep up the great content. 2:40 opps, spoke to soon...
In a few months I'd love for you to go back and show us the completed area with the concrete and buildings etc., that would be really cool. Even cooler if they contracted you for more work there.
Glen, I often think it's one and a half men at best. I had thought that Tim was getting his motivation back, but he is back to propping up the grade stick half the time. To be fair to the lad, I suspect he'd do better if Chris trusted him to do more.
@@TrevorDennis100 He does alright. He is just a cruiser but I have seen plenty of blokes over the years like that get plenty done are are reliable. I don't think Chris shows him in the best light sometimes and likes to snipe a bit.
Trev Dennis I would disagree with you on that item. Tim works for Chris and he does a fine job. Bear in mind you are watching a video that is not real time.
Trevor Dennis That’s a bit harsh, you can’t judge what he’s like from a 15 min video! With work like this there’s times that you need someone on the ground for certain parts of the job and then there’s bits where the machine will be working and won’t be much for the labourer to do. If he was as bad as you make out he wouldn’t have a job!
I totally laughed out loud seeing the dozer wizzing backwards and forwards. Very clever editing as well, underlining how busy you are going to be. And yes, I posted this before finishing the video. [EDIT] I loved the before and after stills at the end. Anyone seeing those pictures out of the blue would probably have no idea how much work went into transforming the site from one state to the other, and I dread to think how much the work so far would have cost the developer. I'm guessing well into six figures, and I wouldn't fall off my chair if I was told seven figures. It's exciting for us Letsdig18 followers to get to the end of a big project because we wait, with tenterhooks, to see where Chris will go next. I'm hoping for that big site with the sink holes and deep deep pipework blocked with subsidence, but I have a feeling that job will be tied up with County red tape for months if not years.
If it was going to be a high-rise then they'd dig a big hole for the footings. By the size of the car park, I am guessing it is some sort of shopping complex. It would be nice if Chris were to swing by the site when the job was finished, but I am not sure he'd be allowed to fly the drone at that stage.
It's looking really good I greatly appreciate your videos I'm not saying that I know how to do this but I definitely have a idea if ever need thumbs up my friend
We have the same grader and it comes in real handy on all the small jobs but after getting off the cat grader it the controls kick my butt for a few minutes
Hey Chris just curious on why not use belly dumps on a job like this instead of end dumps? Bellys just dump faster and more uniform and much easier to spread with motorgrader or dozer. Just curious on your thoughts, never seen any in your videos but on most of your jobs I know they wouldn't work very good but this job looked like they would've worked great.
Pretty Damn Cool! Beers are on me, Chris! Can I bring those beers and my truck over to your shop and we add about3" of lift, new suspension and some tires!? Figure we can burn my old ones, lol!
You guys don’t know what goes into a job like that it takes a lot of time especially for two people and if he can do that job and how good he did it he can do anything he don’t need practice look at it perfection!!!
Loved your use of Time Lapse. Also loved the shots at the end showing the before and after. This was a tremendous amount of work...and done by a two-man operation. You have really got a gem in the person of Timmy....reliable, trustworthy, great work ethic.
Joe Gamba actually three- someone had to be running the drone separately
From green to yellow in one long easy step!! Has kept you busy for a week or two, handy being close to home too. For only two employees, you have a very good work rate 👍👍

I could watch your channel for 24 hours non stop. That's how much I love it.
A lot of work from raw land to finish product. I always felt good when the job was done and done well. Thanks Chris.
That is a huge parking lot. Lots of gravel. You guys make it look so nice. 👍☕️🍀
You guys did a great job. Glad to see that the local companies are staying busy.
Great job! Great video also. I noticed the work on the neighbor's septic field.
That was some very fine drone flying and you did a fantastic job on that job and Tim did pretty good himself give them, and I enjoy them
Drone footage looks like a RC video. Thanks for sharing.
Looks great!!! I hope they appreciate all the hard work. Like the drone shots and the time lapse! Keep up the good work.
love the time lapse . Keep it coming
The Drone footage of how big the job site was that you and Tim worked on is amazing.
Good Job, Chris!
At least you guys got a drizzle. We ain't had rain here in over a month. Some cloudy days, but not a drop.
Yeah, like You, I believe the Blue Kenworth is a Super Sharp
Truck... No mater WHAT trailer is on it... 4:15 😳😎👍✅.
A long job it was but most definitely looks Great on the ending
Drone shots from. 12:50. on comparing it to “Thee Beginning” 😱👍
Great job on the project, Chris! I watched it from day one to the end. Time lapse is for sure the right editing choice on big projects such as this one!!
Chris,I have to say you really had me confused on this project, However it turned out amazing. Ron
Looks great ! Hope u have some pond jobs coming up soon ! Love me some pond videos !! Lol
Finally a little rain... has to be a relief to not eat dust all day!
Chris, nice job.
that classic "hold my beer" ending with the drone shots lmao!
No lot is to big no pond is to muddy call Chris he does it all.
Nice work, I know a big job like that must give you a sense of accomplishment and pride and if it doesn't, it should.
I loved the time lapse of you working looks super cool
Thank you thank you thank you for doing time laps I really love that you started doing that
Nice work, Chris. What a transformation from how it looked just a few weeks ago.
Great job as always @letsdig18 you guys do amazing work and helps motivate my guys everyday. Thanks for the great videos and knowledge.

I"m sure ya"ll are glade to be finishing up. Looks great , good job. go pick the check up and head to another!
It's really nice to see how they manage to keep those trucks shining👌
Tons of grading! Always feels good once the job is completed. I love operating most days haha.
Y’all did a great job, I know you’re glad to be done!!!!!!
I like the drone footage while you work. Thanks for helpin me get through the rona
Don’t know about you Chris but I used to get more job satisfaction from keeping up with multiple tippers all day with a Blade than almost anything else in moving dirt?
Especially if the blade was of the smaller variety like yours.
You definitely sleep better after a shift like that that’s for sure 😁👍🏼.
Terrific final finish as per usual and the drone footage is perfect for showing off the size of the undertaking.
Love this channel keep up the great work you guys.
Helluva project Chris. Fine job (as usual) and flat out moved some dirt!
Another Great well done project. Enjoyed following along . Great video
A lot of nice equipment, you always do a mazing work
Nice job Chris & Tim, …….I liked the WRC dozer ;-)
Excellent work Chris, thank you.
I guess there are 2 things there is no shortage of in the greater Raleigh area.....money and rain. I'm amazed at how much goes into preparing these sites before any building gets started. Does it rain everyday ? You better keep diggin 😎
Love that job you done on the big site , Chris and Tim.
He seems to be getting the hang of this type of work. Few more years and he will be able to make a living at it. ;)
he has had a little practice.
It appears he is making a living now.
Nice ending of the drone shots at the end with before and after. Thanks, Chris!
Chris, we’ve had that dang drizzle over here in Currituck county, last three days. Can’t get any soybeans picked! The project all came together just fine! Looks great bud!!
Skilled people always make everything look so easy. Looks like another fine job.! Dozer and grader work to me is artwork. If you try it you'll know. HaHa
YEAH like laying brick real easy till you try it.
Crossroads in Pilot, NC. Right up the road from me.
Your videos are improving noticeably. Sped up video of machinery working (thanks for avoiding hard rock music) and great drone shots. Keep up the great content. 2:40 opps, spoke to soon...
Great work!
Thanks for all the videos. 👍
In a few months I'd love for you to go back and show us the completed area with the concrete and buildings etc., that would be really cool. Even cooler if they contracted you for more work there.
Chris you do Excellent work ! Job looks great.
looks like the neighbor had to see the light and get a new septic - nice job
That Kenworth W900 is gorgeous! I want to drive it!
Perfection! Thanks for all the great video's! All the best from The Netherlands :)
It’s not done until the burn pile is gone. Fire it up, big guy. 🔥 🔥
Wow..looks great. LOTTA work
That is a lot of work for a two man crew. Looks good.
Glen, I often think it's one and a half men at best. I had thought that Tim was getting his motivation back, but he is back to propping up the grade stick half the time. To be fair to the lad, I suspect he'd do better if Chris trusted him to do more.

Let the man be if he wasn’t good he wouldn’t be there
Nice job. I really liked the drone footage, especially the before and after shot.
Very nice job again Chris, looks amazing 👌👍
Man I love that little motor grader.
I totally laughed out loud seeing the dozer wizzing backwards and forwards. Very clever editing as well, underlining how busy you are going to be. And yes, I posted this before finishing the video.

I hope you do a quick drive-by when the pads and then buildings are finished so we can see the end result of your work!
I know the feeling of not wanting any trucks on it, looks to Pretty to mess up, good job.
Dwayne
Loved those Ariel views of you chasing down the truck but all in all loved it from start to finish
Thanks for some time lapse on the dozer.
That kenworth with the end dump is a beautiful rig
I think you've used that grader more this year than you ever had!!!
Your equipment is gonna need a major powerwashing after this job. The dust chokes me just watching. 😂
As always a good job well done👍💪
Great job as always.👏🏻👏🏻🇨🇦🇺🇸
Fine Job you would think with all the work you put in to that ground that they were going to put a sky scraper there !
If it was going to be a high-rise then they'd dig a big hole for the footings. By the size of the car park, I am guessing it is some sort of shopping complex. It would be nice if Chris were to swing by the site when the job was finished, but I am not sure he'd be allowed to fly the drone at that stage.
@@TrevorDennis100 I Agree i often wanted to see the final build with the structures after all said and down.
It’s going to be a storage unit complex
@@TrevorDennis100 Don't ask the question if you can't stand the answer. Fly it now and apologize later.
It's looking really good I greatly appreciate your videos I'm not saying that I know how to do this but I definitely have a idea if ever need thumbs up my friend
Starting at 2:35 mark, The one tune reminds me of Mike Morales youtube channel.
Me thinks someone spent a very tall stack of quarters on this one. Mini storage did you say?
nice work as always , love the background music , rock on .....
Good job with the time lapse and editing keep it up !!
We have the same grader and it comes in real handy on all the small jobs but after getting off the cat grader it the controls kick my butt for a few minutes
Baby Komatsu looks like fun. I watch these vids and think "I'd like to have a go at that ..."
Always have to have excellent metal riffs to work by
I know you are glad to be done with it great video Chris
Great action with the drone
Looks like it's a set up for mini storage building.
Damn fine job with the editing and time lapse etc. 👍 🇬🇧
Two minutes of time lapse is sooo much better than 10 minutes of normal speed dozed work.
Hey Chris just curious on why not use belly dumps on a job like this instead of end dumps? Bellys just dump faster and more uniform and much easier to spread with motorgrader or dozer. Just curious on your thoughts, never seen any in your videos but on most of your jobs I know they wouldn't work very good but this job looked like they would've worked great.
Finally a dozer timelapse 🙌🙌
Pretty Damn Cool! Beers are on me, Chris! Can I bring those beers and my truck over to your shop and we add about3" of lift, new suspension and some tires!? Figure we can burn my old ones, lol!
Awesome drone footage!
Great job Chris. PERFECT .
Nice work! I see someone is stepping up their editing game 😁👍🏻
Awesome job on this project!
Nice job on the editing, now it's time to ask Tim if he is ready for his close up, Mr. DeVille :)
Fair play mate ,u good with a dozer . Sending respect from the UK 🇬🇧
Excellent job 👍👍
the aerial gives a good perspective of just how big that job was
very cool video, along with music made it bad ass
Very nice job guys when is the fire I have the hotdogs ready 🔥🤣👍👍
Any idea when they are going to build on the site
Love the trucks. Nice done the job. See you later. ;-)
You guys don’t know what goes into a job like that it takes a lot of time especially for two people and if he can do that job and how good he did it he can do anything he don’t need practice look at it perfection!!!
Looking good great drone shots
Nice to see somebody can still get a level without GPS.
Even the music choice is badass!!
Chris was rockin' and a rollin' today!
Lol. And flying high. 🇬🇧
