My dad an I own an operate a small residential grading company. I’ve been doing this kinda work for 22 years since I was 10. And I love watching how other people do it. You my friend are a badass on that tractor and have a lot of pride in what you do! Grading is my passion an I can tell it’s yours too! Great job man can’t wait to see your channel grow! I’m thinking about starting a channel too. We need more grading channels to watch! Lol
Your`e like a surgeon with that bucket, what a nice job you did fixing that mess, I love these grading videos, keep em coming my friend.
Heck yeah, man! I'm digging that tilt bucket!
This is absolutely a fantastic video brother. Won't be long till you start hitting in the millions of views. Very engaging and it flows very nicely. Enjoy watching you reshape roads like this. Best of luck take care thanks
Sound quality is good! Great video! 🇺🇸💪👊
That was a work of art. Beautiful job. I know the customer is going to love it.
I’ve watched hours of your videos and this is the first video I understood your bucket can tilt to help make the crown of the driveway. Makes perfect sense. Understand I have no idea how to do what you do so well
Watching gravel being tailgated is so weirdly satisfying! Nice job Todd!
This is just awesome. I'm so glad that you share the work you do. I can't wait to get started projects like this.
That turned out wonderful. I've watched every video on this job and u did ine hell of a great job, Todd.
That was super satisfying to watch, especially peeling it back in the beginning 😂 loving that 750. Interior is almost identical to my 350 single wheel 6.7.
Doing it,great job.
Nice job, looks great!
Like them tilt buckets
Your in cab audio is sounding great. 👍🏻
Good looking project! ... We use typar a lot! This time of year its the only way to work on roads! Hoping to finish burning brush today ... then we will be ready to start building the new road back into the holler where the garage/apartment .... keep up the good work!
that tilt bucket is enviable. Such a great tool.
I think we used to call those drainage ditches off a driveway a "turnout"
Good walk thru and info,nice finished job..I like the fact you put quality finish on your work..good job as always..
Good looking Job !
YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY! 🤣🤦🏻♂️🤘🏼💯
Looks like that bucket works well.
Dat heb jij echt super mooi gedaan
Great work.......great video
Man I just bought a diesel brand tilt bucket for my cat 304 and I absolutely love it
Hello Todd. I really enjoyed this video. Well done Todd on a professional job...
Good stuff!! 😎👍🏼✅
Good video my man!!
Nice work, that shovel sure does a lot.
I'm here for the coffee cup lol Ace Excavation
Great educational video with Sense of humour
Thank you!
great video, one of your best:)
For those getting into anything involving laying crusher run/GAB/road bond: there is a formula to calculate tonnage. Length x Width divided by 9(gives you square yardage) then multiplied by (110 for 1inch, 220 for 2inch, etc) divided by 2000 and thats your tonnage. It weighs 110LBS at an inch thick in one square yard, so multiply the 110 by your inches of thickness.
So if i have a 10x10 area and im laying it 2” thick the formula I would use would look like this: 10x10 divided by 9 x 220 divided by 2000 = 1.22 tons.
Thank you so much for this.
I’ve been told that a rough estimate is 1.5 tons per cubic yard? If I have a trench that is 10’ long by 3’ wide by 5’ deep I figure cubic yards 10x5x3=150 cubic feet divided by 27 to give me cubic yards of 5.55 then I multiply by 1.5 to give me 8.33 tons.....have you ever heard that formula?
@@timcrosby4651 I looked up crushed rock online and that matched what the rock quarry lady told me.. about 2500lbs-2900lbs/cubic yard... so pretty much 1.5 tons/yd like you said...
Nice job 👍👍👍👍
I agree 100% that it looks like a blast and probably doing a better job with that tilt bucket and excavator vs box blade. I’ve been working for a while cutting a driveway in on my property with a subcompact and box blade and it’s a long, tedious process for sure. The fancy toys definitely make a big difference but totally worth it when it’s your business.
True story
Nice work Art. Ha ha ha. Cheers from Cambridge, Ontario, Canada.
Microphone sounds really good.
Put a serrated cutting edge on that smooth tilt bucket and you would really be impressed.
Looking good todd here in east tn been to wet come on spring
Great
I consider myself a pretty good operator, this guy is an artist!!
Every op looks good in a time lapse
Muddy indeed!
love that tilt bucket, im gonna get one when i grow up..thumbs up my friend !
Hi Todd. I have enjoyed your videos and learned a lot from them. I am faced with clearing a hillside of yaupon jungle in dandy loam and wonder how you would prevent erosion after clearing. Thanks
I use the fabric on my drive. Over time like most driveways where you drive becomes lower. Now over time I've tried grading the drive the fabric started showing in the center. So I'll need to add more gravel and repair the fabric in the center of the driveway I tore with the grading I did.
I have a couple holes in mine too, how did you repair the fabric?
Great job. What brand of tilt bucket did you finally choose?
Excellent kid when you are leveling the mud part when you have your boom flat, do you keep it level as your moving or eyeball it up or down?
Very nice. Question, whats the purpose of the fabric? Im trying to learn some, although we don't get snow in brazil, we get a lot of mud lol
In super clay soil that gets waterlogged when it rains, would you ever lay rock down before you use the fabric? Or is it always material on top of fabric, as a rule?
Have you ever done a steep mountain driveway
I was wondering if you would get this job knowing how your prices were a little more for how far out it was.
Ok brother you need to give us all the local names for what you call road bond. Start with the southeast tennessee name! Good video man
It’s a video!
Wish you could do my driveway!
Great video. Do you get your fabric from a local supplier or order it from outside your area? What type of fabric do you recommend?
What’s that yanmar run with the rotex head rough hand ? Looks pretty close to a kamatsu pc 35 size machine I’m sure it’s gotta be cheaper a little bit 🤔
Do you have a lute rake for the hand leveling?
How heavy is your box blade? I picked up a 1400# EA and was wondering if that is a heavier version than yours. As I do brushoging I am reticent to putting the wheel weights on. I do have the wheels loaded
Really like your videos.. would a small dozer be a better piece to use on this job if you had it available?
there are a lot of ways you could do this job, one would be with a dozer sure.. depends on operator experience and equipment available. he has done a good job
Finally I saw how you laid down roadbed cloth and drove over it! I was wondering how that worked.. I thought it would wad up under your tires or tear from the weight or whatnot..
I'm curious why you didn't put any cloth under the steep portion of driveway. Is it because it slopes enough to drain quickly?
fabric on slope can be an issue, material will slide on it.
@@als8518 Oh? Thank you for that!
@@als8518 And if I do my grading and crowning properly it will run off to the sides and down the side ditches pretty fast. So Roadbed cloth on the flats only.. Thx again.
What rock are you calling road bond? 789-57?
I had a well driller tell me that on certain clay's to put larger 3" minus down in the mud, and fabric on that to keep the what would be now sealed constantly wet clay from pumping, and then put AB on the fabric that is over the 3" minus that is over the clay allowing it to drain better I guess. Granted he is a pump driller and not a road builder, but he does drove the heaviest equipment over roads built by driveway or country road builders, and notices the difference, so he says. It sounds reasonable. Any further advice on this? I know I just did a job in clay that another guy left, which ended up eroding big time. I put down inch and half and tracked into this up hill drive and that seemed to stabilized the road to where I was no longer sliding and it did dry quicker. Then I put the fabric down. The the 3/4". Had I done the fabric, it would have just tore up. The guy's advice was a good call on that job.
Experience is something to trust
@@DigginLife21 I thought so. I had this aggregate delivery driver, the peanut gallery, contradicting my decision in front of the customer. The customer saw that if he had listened to the driver, we'd a been screwed. Oh, btw, I started watching your stuff, a few months ago. My you tube page had about 500 views and 80 subscribers. I gave you credit in a video for the 2.7 million views I get this month! If you're interested in seeing it, I'll give you the link.
Hey can you ad a link for the fabric you use?
I am wondering would it be faster to use the plow thing on the excavator
Faster yes but not as accurate grade wise
If you had to lose one, would you give up the excavator or the skidsteer?
Skidsteer. Be sure to SUBSCRIBE to my other Channel "digginlife deeper" to see bonus footage and project shorts!!!
I must have somehow missed it in a previous video, but what brand tilt bucket and coupler is that?
Is a Yanmar couple and a Tag bucket. I wouldn’t recommend either
Where did you get that bucket?
Hay dude I have a fabric question. If you have fabric down and after some and the drive needs regraded what it the chance of 'accidently' ripping up some of the fabric and causing a lot of repair. Just curious.
Yes you have to watch it. Put lots of gravel on top and roll it down well. Make sure all of the fabric is well covered and repair holes immediately and often.
When we build a new driveway. If fabric is needed. Goes right to the bottom then 12 plus inches of base gravel. Or clean gravel stone tailings. Then 6 inch of processed chrush run gravel over that. , but obviously this is exsististing and probably not in the budget to do it as if it was a new virgin driveway
Going to rent an excavator and try and fix my driveway for the first time ever. Should be easy.......
You got this!!!
What kind of fabric is it?
Didn't you do a video on bidding this driveway about a year ago?
Yep
What are you calling "Road Bond",. 3/4 minus??
See that's what you get when don't go for the cheapest quote!
Todd put more material down at his own cost because he wants to do it right.
What is the fabric?
Is the cloth something that is really necessary? Or is that in just certain areas?
What kind of cloth?
Fabric is expensive, but it helps "bridge" swampy sections.
@@littlefinkle7757 not that expensive really. buck a foot maybe
Why do you dig when you have frost underground? Should at least dig 20 cm down and then take fibercloth then take 4-5mm singel, and then gravel on top to have a good stable road. And trenches and trench and tubes to divade the water. Should never fix a road in the winter, should be done during summer not when you have frost (telehiv) under ground.
Why did it take so long to finish..?
Bad winter weather
Why the hell would you be doing this whilst the frost is well into the ground ffs ....
thats not an extremely muddy driveway.
