On Dirt Perfect’s team, Kleeman is a utility player. He can do many things well and seemingly will try just about anything. The sort of person you would want on your team.
I watch you and several other young men on these you tube videos who are very up on mechanics and other things and you use that knowledge. You guys are very hard working. You guys have restored my faith in young people because in many cases all you see is young people playing video games and care for nothing else. Thank all of you for who and what you are.
Every since I started watching yours and DP videos I have enjoyed every one. When you throw MBTS into the mix they are great. Thanks for the entertainment and the "Day in the Life" of you guys.
I use that same exact model jump box. It gets used at least once every day, most times multiple times a day for the past 5+ years now and its still kicking. I changed the clamps out a month ago because they had damage from them arcing on stuff over the years and also went ahead and replaced the batteries in it. That thing is a beast, itll jump off completely dead heavy equipment like its nothing. Their smaller 12v only ones do great also.
Captain, I'm glad you got the video uploaded figured out because you definitely deserve every view and penny that you can get. Great job on this video. Moving equipment sounds like an easy job but it's not. The Pepsi cans left everywhere, well that's a different story by itself. I can't stand seeing drink bottles, dip cans, snack wrappers left in a machine I'm getting to operate.
I do some gold prospecting Down Under for fun and recently had the opportunity to run similar equipment on a friends mining lease in the outback. These great lumbering behemoths are not easy to navigate so great respect for your skill and patience moving these machines.
Another great video. I have met a lot of people in my time and a lot are despondent if there glass is half full and some are happy they still have half a glass. You strike me as a person with you attitude to life is if your glass is half full you look at it as if its overflowing. Outstanding way to look at life. If you ever move to Australia look me up and I will give you a job. If all my employees had your attitude I would be a wealthy man.
good stuff, yeah its always a good day when nothing gets broken. you talked a bit in the video about planning, i drive my boss nuts as a software developer by just building it no plan just an end goal. one of my voworkers who planed/over engenered everything said it was fater than my way. we got a utility that was needed asap to solve a mission critical service, he went his way i did mine, mine was done and operational with the only cost to the company my time, the over planner finished the design about a day after my utility was done and his was going to cost the company $100,000 in hardware and software licensing, mine used open source and just straight code and utilized existing hardware. that was 15 years ago and the utility still sits and runs 24x7 365. my point is sometimes the well thought out plan is to resource intensive. my way fails sometimes but rarely and i learn a whole lot more. i think operating machines and software development share a lot of similarities in thought process. determine the end goal and deal with issues along the way.
First time I’ve ever seen your videos I think you’re really good I like watching this kind of stuff you know I’m a Truck here we go driver by trade and I really love watching this kind of stuff So keep doing what you doing have fun at what you doing God bless
Are all fire people such good drivers and drive everything? Nice video to watch while I start my day. Great angles and shots. Really feel the experience. Thanks 👍
Great video, always wondered what the equipment weighed and it was a lot more than we thought. We'd like to hear that story of DP throwing out that fellas tools. You're a very positive man, bring up our moods when we watch you. Stay safe
You have one piece of equipment that I don't think that one of ten could work it and maybe as high as twenty and thats the bobcat grader attachment. I used to have a deere four wheel drive little road grader that was a dream to run on light material or even gravel. The frame was real flimsy and it would get stuck on wet grass. I sold it to a fellow who did duels on the back wheels, and calcium in the front tires and it did him fine. I was used to the old galleon road grader... I hope I got that name right as its been many years ago. Funny thing is, that little banty chicken sized road grader is the only one I have ever seen and might get ran once in five years. I think it had some potential but it frustrated me so just avoided it. I wish I still had it cause my only way in to my cabin is getting rutted, a lot of muck from the sides of that driveway and leaves that leave you thinking the road is right here but people will follow the leaves and get stuck like right now cause its clay soup. I sure like that you take pride in the equipment that you have and keep it up but don't turn stuff into trailer queens. Are you going to re arch the trailer when it comes in or is it just fine. I know that even tho most stuff that you have is old, its well kept and means a lot to you.. just curious if you ever seen one of those little yard and driveway graders before?? I think if they had the walking beam rears then it would of been a hit as that was its biggest problem of no traction.
Great that you explained why you took it down, the other thing to cover is having comment not allowed as this has something to do with the set-up as well, which happened to me and Mat and no one can let you know.
Mike,just a bit of advice on Pepsi,and drinking same. I grew up with Pepsi in the house,I drank a 24 pack or more for years,I’m now diabetic. I quit Pepsi and sugar went way down. Hey thx for your videos,I really enjoy them and the interaction with all the guys!
It's a good idea to color code the fluid tanks. Someone put diesel in an antifreeze can. Someone put it in the radiator. It took an engine tear down before it was discovered that the head wasn't cracked.
The boss should buy a Hotsy portable pressure washer, once every couple of weeks clean the equipment, would save on bushings and track parts and make the engines easier to work on.
Nice equipment movement video. He sure has a lotta equipment that seems to end up all over what we Miamians consider above the Artic Circle, Southern Indiana. To help Y'all's channels I'll try to comment more. Thanks to Covid19, age and health issues Y'all are one of my favorite my survival mechanisms.
Holy Sheetz that’s a lot of kit being moved . Enjoyed watching the content coral, creating corner, covering kinda or sorta explaining things 🤓any who it explained more about TH-cam. Good job 👍
The location is where it works, it's good, how it works .. Enthusiastic to mobilize the excavator, a friend who is a heavy equipment fan, is here to support, sir
In DP's last video there was a Coke bottle in the cup holder on the Volvo. I wonder now, is the Pepsi supply in Indiana is getting low? Thanks for the update on updates. Interesting information, I wondered, since I got "early" looks on several of the channels I follow, you weren't the only one who had that issue.
Vorfor monterer du ikke sving på svanehengeren på hengeren og så styrer du hjulene på hengeren fra førerhytta i trekkvogna så kommer du deg runt svinger du vanligvis ikke gjør til vaneli?
Great video as usual Captain. Keep those Pepsi can they are a nickel here in Maine......all the Pepsi Mike puts back could pay for the you tube yacht ...lol....looks like a nice sidewall cut in the puppy dog 16:47 ....have a great day !
Good video captain really enjoyed the ride along was fun I’ve loaded and unloaded many equipment myself Although it’s been a few years ,again enjoy the video man. Ps I sure like him speed ratchet buckles wish that I had them back in my day LOL
This is more for Dirt Perfect than for Captain Kleeman, but you both can weigh in: The analytics bit was informative: I've always wondered how much of your efforts are directed to actual work vs. producing the videos. and how much you make from the videos. I've spent some time helping a guy who's more or less a one man band doing much the same kind of work you do. I helped him maybe 2/3 days a week on jobs that were simply easier when he had an "educated idiot" to keep him from constantly jumping from one peice of equipment to the other, or simply when he needed a hand to lift the opposite end of something heavy. I did it more for the exercise rather than for the money, 'cause he paid me chump change, but then I made as much money from my retirement that day than what he actually made working....It was all good. Anyways, from your comments, I'm assuming you make a fair bit from producing videos -- and I'm curious if that is a significant portion of your income, or simply pocket money. Don't disclose amounts, but a hint of percentages or something similar would be informative.
Ah, an average day Mike, start at one end, plan your day route etc, then all change 🤦♂️😂 Your pond is filling up nicely, has the grass started to take? Interesting to see how the analytics work, blackboard graphics worked a treat!!!! Stay safe out there sir...👍
Don't underestimate user engagement with TH-cam, they like to see that "like" button clicked and people leaving comments. Nice way of explaining what happened with that video. People that don't have a channel don't realize all the "behind the scenes" stuff that goes on.
We had a guy for moving our stuff, the thieving bast*rd stole $800.00 of fuel in 1-week, we fired him, then sold the truck & trailer! Our moving cost is less using a hauling company, than the expense of truck-trailer-insurance and supporting a worthless meth-head stealing all the diesel. (true-story)
Just so you know check local law or state! But and equipment loaded for highway hauling is to have the blade to the rear!! I live in Boaz al and we have to haul everything backed on the trailer!oh and putting chains on the tracks is a no no! The bolts is all that hold it on! And the breaking strength is very low! Dot will shut you down and write a big fine plus extra ticket for in sucureed load!!
Hey captain you should try and get DP into Irn Bru Scotlands National Drink. Made from Girders. Really like yourchannel. Pond looking good. Best wishes from Alva Central Highlands Scotland.
Would love to have your job hauling equipment to construction sites. I really enjoy the driving part. Love that GMC dump truck. Does that have a 10 speed transmission in it.
How deep will the pond be when it's full? It looks enormous on video! I think you will need a Vecon to maintain those sides. Great project. Congrats on completing it!
Clicking through videos does affect the analytics. We have a metric called “skip through rate” that measures how often people skip ahead. Not sure how big of an impact it has though.

Clicking through videos does affect the analytics. We have a metric called “skip through rate” that measures how often people skip ahead. Not sure how big of an impact it has though.
