Hey Sam, Thanks for linking this video to us. Mary Grace loves it. For some reason, the hog is her favorite of all your equipment. She was especially interested when it flipped over. And when you were working on the fuel injectors, she said, "I feel like this man do's everything." haha. Thought you'd apprecate that. Thanks for taking the time to share your work with us. And it's a blessing to have a youtube channel we can watch without worrying about whether the language will be clean. Appreciate you sharing the Gospel in your videos too, brother! -Josh
Hi Sam …Nice Video My Friend , This is a Good Looking project Boss . Well done on the footage , One of the Best in the Business 👍🏻. Thank You for the Message, I appreciate you Sir ! Take Care and Be Safe !
Hey Brent welcome to the channel and I appreciate your support! I’m glad you are enjoying the message. That is the best part 😀. Thanks and God Bless, Sam
Well hallelujah!! Finally found someone who's not ashamed to mention and talk about Jesus Christ. Thanks so much and don't quit it. Its Refreshing to my soul hearing the little message with great truths about it. It Helped me mate. Brother in christ
Thanks and welcome to the channel. I appreciate the encouragement and glad you enjoyed the message! I definitely enjoy sharing the message. God Bless, Sam
Thanks for the video Sam well done with the Hog 😂😂❤❤it. Getting it done with the pond all in time. Take care of yourself and family and be Blessed ❤️❤️👍.
The pond build is coming along nicely! That JCB seems like its helping you with dirt moving and compaction at the same time! Thanks for the message i really enjoy listening to them. They are very acurate! Thanks
Thank you!😀 I’m always trying to figure out ways to make the videos better. So, I appreciate the feedback. Glad you are enjoying the message at the end. God Bless, Sam
Sam, there are a few things I think when starting a job. When you know what needs to be done don’t take shortcuts. I repeat in my head don’t be lazy just do what needs to be done because if you don’t it will take longer in the end and cost more to fix. I have found in life that short cuts are more of a headache in the end. Trust me every time I say don’t be lazy in my head I start an argument with myself for a few seconds and then remember all the outcomes from rushing or just not taking the few extra minutes to do it right. You got this. Only thing that holds us back is ourselves. Keep up the good work.
Funny when you backed off the trailer my first thought was there has to be a high pucker factor to unloading that. lol. Glad there was no damage when the truck laid down for a rest.
Right, climbing on and off that trailer in the Hog is very sketchy. I need a camera on the front of the trailer to watch the front tires. I can raise the bed and see the back tires pretty good. The Hog was tired and just needed to lay down for a rest in the dirt. 😀
Enjoyed the message Sam. You just tipped the Hog over just a little. It happens when you have equipment in the way.😂 The core is looking good. Be Safe and GOD BLESS
@@tristardiggin I was thinking when you were explaining what you were going to do I hope he moves the roller and D5. But I should have known better.😂 Those haul truck have a tendency to want to lay down on the job. 🤣
Hey Sam, it’s coming along 👍🏼Glad you figured out the side dump feature early 😂. Recently bought an old state owned dump trump, dual rear axle. Man that thing is handy ! Be blessed bro
Here is a little history on the X frame, it was invented by a Corporal in the British army, he must be pretty rich by now, he done it for the rough terrain forklift and the Eager Beaver was born, I would check the centre swivel system at the centre of the X it should not be that loose, you have gotten a brilliant little Bubba Dump there, even Mike was impressed when he got the bigger one, he had to show it some love at first, but if you ask him he would tell you he wouldn't get shot of it.
Great video and AWESOME MESSAGE!!! I need to hear the message today brother, my skid steer has been sitting idle for the 3rd month now. I'm beginning to get a little worried about that monthly payment. Thank you!!
Thanks Andrew! 😀I love this little truck. If you can get your hands on one you won’t regret it. It makes a big difference in how a little guy can move dirt on a job site. Sam
Man, we got lots to talk about on this one! First, I'm glad you had the metric Cresent wrench with you to tighten the injector lines. Second, the dump truck is never supposed to be greasy side up. At least there was no damage though. I like that little truck. I had bad luck yesterday myself. I was swapping buckets on my skidsteer, I looked over my shoulder and saw nothing. I always check the back up camera before I back up and saw nothing. I backed up and heard a crunch. I ran over the plastic lid on an underground propane tank. Luckily, there was no gas leak. Lol. I told the contractor what I had done and to send me a bill when it was fixed. Oh well, at least it wasn't too serious for either of us. Job is coming along nicely. Stay safe brother.
Yup, the ole metric crescent came in handy! Figured I would have to go get the truck with the tools on it. Greasy side down is always best! Glad that tank wasn’t leaking. That would be bad.
Injector Crab Nuts and Fuel Lines must be properly Torqued! Is worth taking the time to research and torque youself on a slack day. I always like to torque them then put a line on the nut with a paint-pencil so it's easy to see if they are backing off.
Are you adding water to the clay to get maximum compaction? Don’t know how you would compact dry clay. Maybe you are just can’t tell with the camera shadows. Thanks for sharing, and keep and shiny blade…lol
That could have been a lot worse,and both jobs are looking great . You should invest in a set of crow's foot open end wrenches for getting into tight spaces like that.Great message and keep up the great work. Your channel is my favorite 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏💯
Thank you John. It definitely could have been worse. Glad I didn’t break anything. I would definitely like to have some of those wrenches for sure. I thought for sure I would be going all the way home for the Ram truck with all the tools on it. Glad to be your favorite channel and I appreciate the support…
Thanks Steve I appreciate that! Truth be know, I’m probably watching the same guys you are talking about and that’s how I learned to build ponds! 😀 Dirt Perfect and Let’s Dig18 Sam
Hey Sam, thanks for making these videos and putting time and effort into getting your jobsite experiences to us. Do you haul your 313 and dozen on that tag trailer behind the single axle dump. I'm exploring my options for growth and trying to figure out just how much I can haul behind a single axle truck safely and legally 😅
Thanks I appreciate that! I do pull the dozer and 313 with the single axle and 20 ton trailer. I ran the numbers by a couple of DOT guys and the only issue was tire ratings on the trailer was a little low and I need a 60k tag on the truck. I also have a Class A CDL which is needed as well. Hope that helps…
@tristardiggin Thats all very helpful information. Do you have any videos about your towing set up? I'd like to know more about the truck and such, but I don't want to wear out your comment section with questions 😂
@zaccheus I have a video from a while back on the truck but nothing specific about truck/trailer and towing. Would be a good idea to put in a video though. You can email me and be glad to help where I can. Email is in the channel description area.
I have a friend who tried that dumping method with a 26ft end dump behind a semi 😂.Where's your tractor for brush hogging and putting out hay for the cows? I'm guessing you use the skid steer to put out hay, but the only tractor I remember you were chasing down a hill a while back.... 😆
Those end dump trailers are sketchy for sure! Have you seen the side dump that Dirt Perfect is trying out. That is a cool setup. I need you to come fix my run away tractor and then do a restoration on it. 😀 I use the skid steer, excavator, and sometimes the dozer to feed hay. Just what ever is at the barn and not on a job. 🫣
I owned a Dresser track loader for a while. It was great for loading trucks but that is all the experience I have had with one. I think they were really popular years ago for digging basements and the like. Probably next piece of equipment I get will be a bigger dozer with a 4 way blade in order to push big dirt…
@russellsmith3825 it doesn’t. And it definitely needs them. The guy I bought it from said they had a hard time keep mirrors on it. I have some to put on it at some point and a backup camera too.
Depending on the roof construction, you might be able to borrow a page from a mobile home toter truck and mount a piece of square tubing across the front of the roof, then using a slightly smaller tubing with set screws to lock them in place you could hang a couple mirrors that can be stowed for transport. Edit to add, this would be a ton better than the braille method for backing up.

Thanks for the video Sam well done with the Hog 😂😂❤❤it. Getting it done with the pond all in time. Take care of yourself and family and be Blessed ❤️❤️👍.

Right, the JCB is a great machine. Glad to have it moving dirt. Glad you are enjoying the message…
Glad you didn’t tear anything up! I’ve got that exact same truck, love that little thing!
Hey Ryan I can see why you love it! Great little tuck for sure…
Really enjoy you showing different techniques and tricks, learning a lot. Also enjoy the biblical messages. Thanks

love the cows making noise. Great message.
Thank you Roxy! 😀 I like the cows too…
Great video sir
What a great example you set while working thru the issues
Awesome message
Thanks, it is a bit frustrating at times but just keep pushing through…
I think that is what is great about articulated dump trucks, they are tanks and are forgiving.
Right, it’s a great little truck…
Awesome Job & Message!!
Thanks Greg!

Yup, that is exactly right! Short cuts end up being the long way around for sure.
It is my understanding those trucks are not supposed to be side dumps but what do I know.
Glad no injuries. Thanks for the message.
Right, I must have misread the instructions. I thought it said dumps from any position! 😀

Why move them when you can just be aggravated because there in the way! 😀
@@tristardiggin 🤣
Hey Sam, it’s coming along 👍🏼Glad you figured out the side dump feature early 😂. Recently bought an old state owned dump trump, dual rear axle. Man that thing is handy ! Be blessed bro
Right, the side dump feature is NICE! A tandem axle would be nice to have for sure.
Thanks,
Sam
Me encanta el canal amigo estoy ya suscrito. Que dios os bendiga ❤
Thank you Juan, I appreciate that!
God Bless,

Great video Sam! That's a huge project!
Thanks, definitely the biggest project for me so far. Enjoying the project and learning a lot along the way.
@@tristardiggin I'm anxious to see the finished result! :)
That white Truck is just like the one Mike from Dirt Perfect has, even looks the same colour and set up, great minds think alike.
Yup, really like that truck for sure.
Thanks…

That is interesting to know the history of it now. It is a great little truck for sure.
Thanks
It became a side dump dump truck way to go
Yup, didn’t take long to convert it to a side dump for sure…
Great video and AWESOME MESSAGE!!! I need to hear the message today brother, my skid steer has been sitting idle for the 3rd month now. I'm beginning to get a little worried about that monthly payment. Thank you!!
Hey Mark, glad the message was a help to you. Praying you get some work for that thing soon.
@@tristardiggin thank you sir!
Glad there was no damage to you or the Hog!
Me too! The Hog is pretty tough though…
Thanks
Ponds coming along. I've gotta get me a single axle haul truck like you have. That looks like it would be really handy.
Thanks Andrew! 😀I love this little truck. If you can get your hands on one you won’t regret it. It makes a big difference in how a little guy can move dirt on a job site.
Sam
Now you didn’t tell me you had a side dump…..looks good brother!
Added the side dump option that morning.😀
The Hawg turned into a side dumper😂. Glad you and your equipment are Ok. Could have been a lot worse
It did make a pretty good side dump. 😀 I’m definitely thankful nothing was damaged. Lesson learned…

Not adding any water. There has been enough moisture in it so far to pack pretty good.
Thanks
Great Video and Great Testimony.
Thank you Cricket! 😀
That could have been a lot worse,and both jobs are looking great . You should invest in a set of crow's foot open end wrenches for getting into tight spaces like that.Great message and keep up the great work. Your channel is my favorite 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏💯

Hey buddy. I didn't know that truck had a side dump feature! 😂 I bet it sounded and ran better once you tightened those fuel lines. Nice work brother!
I had the side dump option added to it after I bought it.😀
It did run a little better and definitely getting more run time from the diesel.
Man i wish i could get suny wether to finish flattening some land but its storming
Thanks for the video:)
Poor Hog 😂
Hang in there it will quit raining at some point. Poor Hog went down in the dirt.
@@tristardiggin yea
Some days are better than others
Jim that is definitely true! 😀
Thanks

Thank you for both!!

Good evening sir,
Another great video
Awesome explanation as usual
I’m catching up on your videos so the comments may be out of order
Thanks and no problem on being out of order. Thanks for supporting the channel…

Great message. I watch three TH-camrs and you all build ponds the same way. you all must have gone to the same school. Just kidding.
Thanks Steve I appreciate that! Truth be know, I’m probably watching the same guys you are talking about and that’s how I learned to build ponds! 😀

It was a side dump Sam. 👍
EXACTLY! Wish I had thought of that while editing the video. 😀
Looks like you got yourself a a core trench

What's that beeping sound coming from your D5?
It is the seat belt warning beeper. It goes off intermittently while using it.
@@tristardiggin Oh that's what it is
Been there done that in a Volvo articulated
It’s definitely not hard to do for sure.
Sam
@@tristardiggin good thing the bed only and not the cab , that truck is awesome
@@jeffbensoutdoors1623 my thoughts exactly, at least the cabin didn’t flip. This truck is a great addition for sure…
The only way to learn is by making mistakes
Right, trying to avoid mistakes but definitely learning from them when they happen.
Its weird how one camera makes the dirt look brown and another camera it looks red.
Right, especially the drone. It auto adjust the camera settings depending on the amount of sun and position of the sun.
Thanks
Is that a 5.9 Cummins?
Yes it’s a 5.9
Solid engine. Does that truck have any mirrors?
@russellsmith3825 it doesn’t. And it definitely needs them. The guy I bought it from said they had a hard time keep mirrors on it. I have some to put on it at some point and a backup camera too.

Great video Sam! Keep up the good work! And keep facing adversity with the help of our Lord and Savior!

Adversity can be difficult for sure.
Good message,really made me think about it, the purpose of a good message,video was kind of like the Christian life, real . Thanks!
Thanks Brian! Enjoy hearing how the message was a blessing.

Just curious what your honest opinion is of that JCB articulated dump?
I love this truck. Not sure how I was getting by without it! It changes the way you look at jobs having the ability to move dirt around on a job.
