Very cool. Long way from home, but I’m sure Mike will be making the trip south when you need a helping hand in the future. Good friends are hard to find. You two are the best!👍
This project reminds me of young people damning up creeks when on holidays or around their homes and then busting them when they are full of water. This is an amazing skillful example of this indicating many years of practice and enjoying life. Thanks for the fun.
Hello Chris, I've been watching Mike and Aaron working together for many hours and months and years, so based on that, I'd hazard to guess Mike didn't "forget" to tell you about the high-low switch on the compactor. Mikes a fun loving sort of a fellow and he and Aaron have spent many hours operating that machine. So now you know, why he was smiling when he left. Mike is awesome with installing clay tile and the project will be "Dirt Perfect" when you're done. It's been great to see you and Robert come up to Derby and help out, so thanks for this video.

It's coming together nicely. I had some doubts at first as steep as the road is. I can't wait to see the finished product. It would be impressive to fill the whole thing up. That would be cost prohibited. Be safe and pray no air lines blow.
Im assuming u mean air lines for air brakes, but air brakes lock if a line breaks and they lose pressure. Other than that, idk what it was you were referring to.
You guys work so well together would like to see more of you guys working together on a large project that would be a super video, these are just the best, Chris you need to fix up old barney with a set of Pipes ,as well as doing awesome work the laugh lines and the honest to goodness good times shines through, watching two guys who know their business working dirt is very relaxing
Chris just love all the elements that are happening, great project and all of you are something special working together!!! Thank you very much for sharing this!!👍🇺🇸
Wow I'm loving this project ,from scratching head to the dam build, impressive video,dozer ace..thanks Arron Chris and Mike here's to the pipe and clearing..UK out..
This was exciting. In The Pacific Northwest the loggers for the last 150 years routinely risked life and limb to get across little canyons like this. Thos temporary solutions in many cases still stand, just as I'm sure this earthen dam will stand for a hundred years.
There wasn't much thought for the environment back in those early days either. Dam the river fill the small lake with logs then dynamite the dam and catch the logs far downstream. Rinse, and repeat.
Hello Chris, Great that you and Mike are such good friends, that you can go visit the other from time to time and can help in each others projects. Great that you can all have a bit of fun to break up any stress, if there is ever any, but still remain professional about the jobs at hand and get her done. Was surprised that you didn't use any rip rap at the base of all this, and just used tons of clay. I would of thought the base of rip[ rap would of been more sturdy. Then again I am just a 67 yr old senior lady here so what do I know, just thinking from all the videos of you both that I have seen over the last yr or so. Must admit I love this little cover, and specuially in the early mornings, looks so peaceful and pretty..
Enjoying this major project. Equipment and expertise of operators makes project take shape quickly. Thank u for fun video. God's blessings and be careful.
You guys are all doing a great job glad to see this getting done and glad you see great friends working together thank you gentlemen for showing us this video and how well did you all work together even you Aaron😂
Yeah, that water has already came up a lot !! When you was coming across with the dirt, on the dozer, I was watching it pump just a touch , was like Oh hell !! Normally in those old strip pits like that, we call them here in Ky. , the mud is pretty deep in those things, and smells like all hell when ya get it stirred up !! lololol... But, you guys got it laid on across there !! Looking good Man !! Great as always Chris !! HAve a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!
Fantastic work as usual guys....having Chris on the project definitely helps it go super efficiently. Love the content. Guys who run equipment watching guys run equipment 🤔🤣🤣
Chris, I find as others seem to with these videos of you guys working on this job. It is most enjoyable. This one has been a most enjoyable 40 minutes, I'd like to see more of these.
Rocking back and forth in the seat did the trick on unsticking the roller, lol. You guys are great together, need to get D.P and M.B.T.S., over your way to help out on a job.
I had to take another look at who’s channel I was watching because I hear and Dirt Perfect , equipment, people, and voices and was sure it was LD18’s channel I had started to watch, then I see Chris in the 210 operators seat, ok, now I got it. Thanks for the video sir, enjoyed it.
It’s incredible that you were able to cut a road into that side of that little “ canyon “ . I know you’re used to doing things like that , but I am still impressed !
This video really shows off what makes Chris different from most other excavator operators. Watch the flow as he dumps into the truck and he's already lifting and moving back for the next scoop even before his bucket is totally empty, and the boom swing is fast. There is just zero time wasted. Most operators I see go half as fast or worse. Guess this is what happens when you work for yourself versus paid by the hour. Chris is getting it all done right as fast as possible. Everybody else wants to take as long as possible and rework is fine.
That is Indiana for ya on you can be digging great clay. Dig 5 more feet and hit sand. Then 5 more feet hit black dirt. Then back to clay. It’s very frustrating at times. I’m 160 miles north of Dirt Perfect
Nice little job made better by having both of my favorite dirt pros making it happen. Along with a little help from their friends. Great set of videos.
You could use some bigger rock on the front / upper part of the dam as erosion protection if the pipe ever get clogged up ,if the bevers clogs it for ex. Or as a splash pad in front of the pipe outlet.... Could look nice to.
@@farmerbill6855 yes, i heard that also . I was suggesting using big flat stones in some capacity like the big ones they found. In front of pipe outlet mayby?
You and Mike should team up on more projects. It’s definitely fun to watch. Maybe one project every 2-3 months. Plus, around Christmas, we’ll get to see Mike’s version of this same project 😂.
I really like this series. I'm dreaming about doing the same project at my house. Just waiting on the Chris and Mike, subscriber Pro Bono series. haha. Thanks again for the great videos.
@armoredsaint6639 Right, you never get an afternoon video from Mike. After lunch is always questionable if he's going back to work or off for a nap lol
Is it rock quarry or gravel pit??I counted 9 of those quarry up her in the county, When they started rocking and building road they hauled with horse and wagon. Many quarries to keep from having so far, my grand PA was sixteen got a pair of gray horses, hauling rock. Worked out the cost of horses and wagon, he ended up drilling and blasting at Quarries,....
That orange clay reminds me of my tank driving days at Fort Knox in Kentucky. I spent my 18th birthday crawling in the orange clay that would stain all of our underclothes. Funny thing is, I don't miss anything about that time of my life.
ME LIKEY CASE DOZER....Case uses diesel engines supplied by company that use to be known as FIAT. Now the engines are in Case Tractors, New Holland Tractors, and Case Construction. I'm impressed with the power and quiet running of that engine. Dirt Perfect should seriously consider purchasing Case next time. JimInCincy....
Thanks Frank, i don't know if they could of put that dam in without your info. Between the two of them they have probably put a 100 dams in. Did you share your knowledge with them on those dams. I hope you did
I had a smile on my face the entire video. I like watching pros work with each other. Thanks for sharing this, Chris.
so did i too. laughed almost the entire video.
Boys & toys get the job done 😂
It's like they built a nice little winding road.... right into a wall of solid rock. Lol
But it's a nice road tho. This was a great couple of vids.
Very cool. Long way from home, but I’m sure Mike will be making the trip south when you need a helping hand in the future.
Good friends are hard to find. You two are the best!👍

You three are fun to watch. Love the banter and how talented you all are. You guys should do this a few times a year.
i love watching guys work so well with each other

That was a cool collaboration cant wait to see the final product. Thanks for sharing!!!!😅
Great Video guys. You two should do more of these type videos.
Interesting project…great teamwork‼️Beavers gonna be jealous 😉🙋♀️💖🇨🇱
Defiantly making for great viewing with you guys working in together on this project bro. Look forward to see the tiles go in. Safe travels. Ken.
Awesome! I can't wait to see this on DP's channel next year!
You think it will make it that early on the history channel?
Looks like a good fit for Mike and Mr Millennial to use for Mr M's duck hunting preserve they tried to build on DP's land last year.
This was exciting. In The Pacific Northwest the loggers for the last 150 years routinely risked life and limb to get across little canyons like this. Thos temporary solutions in many cases still stand, just as I'm sure this earthen dam will stand for a hundred years.

I like this. Reminds me of damming up the creek with my friends years ago.
Best regards from Indiana.
Enjoying this major project. Equipment and expertise of operators makes project take shape quickly. Thank u for fun video. God's blessings and be careful.
great content /nice to see some different kinds of projects /and collab with dirt perfect
Very cool project and great to see you all working together
[38:18] That cleat cleaner on the sheep's foot roller keeps the roller nice and clean
Beautiful work guys. That is quite the accomplishment making the road, making the dam and having fun all at once! Well done.
That was good engineering. Idea+good equipment +operators perfect combination
Chris you and Mike work together very well! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
👍🏻👍🏻it’s good to see friends working together to get a project started and finished, well almost. 🤛🏻🤛🏻
You guys are all doing a great job glad to see this getting done and glad you see great friends working together thank you gentlemen for showing us this video and how well did you all work together even you Aaron😂

Those LGP dozer pads are perfect for this project, push right over the edge and back right up without sinking. LOVE THIS PROJECT COLLABORATION!
Can't explain why, but this has been my favourite project you've done in a long time

Well you know who's the better operator Mike gives way to Chris great video thanks Chris

same here😁😁
ONE of the best vids I’ve watched on this channel. Fascinating to watch and added bonus with MBTS
Great video have a great evening 👍🏻🇺🇸
Love watching all of you have a good time 😊.
It’s incredible that you were able to cut a road into that side of that little “ canyon “ . I know you’re used to doing things like that , but I am still impressed !
Chris, it would be so funny if you blurred out the dirt perfect signs on sides of bubbba dump and rest of Mikes equipment 😂
Why?
Great Time With All Of You Thank You Chris Video
Thank you and have a good day.

Cool update on the project. Looking forward to the finished result.
That road is as impressive as the dam! 👍🤯
Great exhaust on that dump truck i watched them make it but this is the first job i have heard it working
That is Indiana for ya on you can be digging great clay. Dig 5 more feet and hit sand. Then 5 more feet hit black dirt. Then back to clay. It’s very frustrating at times. I’m 160 miles north of Dirt Perfect
I see a bigger job collaboration happening in the future for you guys and maybe a couple more to create the dream team most wanted.
Nice little job made better by having both of my favorite dirt pros making it happen. Along with a little help from their friends. Great set of videos.
Great episode. Thank you. Very interesting. 👍
A couple of my favorite channels in the same videos.🎉
You certainly made the dam ok love the video....stay safe...god bless
Sure would be nice to get that pond grass layer out of the fill dirt !
You could use some bigger rock on the front / upper part of the dam as erosion protection if the pipe ever get clogged up ,if the bevers clogs it for ex. Or as a splash pad in front of the pipe outlet....
Could look nice to.
They literally talk about covering it with riprap.

nice 2 see you and DP and Arron working well like 2 see more of you all
Good Monday morning everyone i hope that you are having a good day ❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂
I love the banter.
Nice work, very enjoyable video!
Looks like a Miniter Hoover dam Look like y’all had fun thank you
You dirt dude's together make a good fit and good entertainment
I really like this series. I'm dreaming about doing the same project at my house. Just waiting on the Chris and Mike, subscriber Pro Bono series. haha. Thanks again for the great videos.
"The Man In Front of the Scene" is doing a grand job!!!!
Chris, what’s it like having more than two pumps on the brakes before you run out of air?
That wasn't the voice I was expecting lol 😂
That’s funny, that’s exactly what I was thinking I even checked to make sure I was on the right channel! Lol
Well had to check twice that I am on right channel 😂
@armoredsaint6639
Right, you never get an afternoon video from Mike. After lunch is always questionable if he's going back to work or off for a nap lol
Wish there was an aerial view of this dam Job.
Great work by all.
No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!!
Is it rock quarry or gravel pit??I counted 9 of those quarry up her in the county, When they started rocking and building road they hauled with horse and wagon. Many quarries to keep from having so far, my grand PA was sixteen got a pair of gray horses, hauling rock. Worked out the cost of horses and wagon, he ended up drilling and blasting at Quarries,....
It's a stone quarry.
I had to close my eyes while you were backing down the hill😮
Like you always say, The best packer is a Haul Truck Fully Loaded running over a road or pond damn.
Maybe it's just me but when you were loading Bubba Dump with that 210.. It cycles as fast or faster than the Volvo 220 even in that hard ground.
Is it the same size bucket?
@@oleran4569 Same class, weight and size machine and both with factory buckets so most likely.
Best pond dam job yet!!
Can’t wait to see if it’s underwater when yall get back!!!!!!
Nice colab with DirtPerfect.
This must have been day 3.
Day 1, the Dragline
Day 2, road on steep slope,
And day 3 today and 4 in this video.
Good to keep Mike in check. Nice work Chris
Adapt and overcome...good job !😊
I think that's Sasquatch territory 😮
Dangerous but I think there was some fun had great watch 👍👋🇨🇦
Very Impressive road and pond dam building!!!! Wanda In N E Ok
Enjoyed watching the video Chris 😊
Good thing I follow both channels. If I only followed DP. I wouldn’t see this until Christmas
Good morning Chris and Mike and Arron😊❤
The road to nowhere. Thanks for sharing.
That orange clay reminds me of my tank driving days at Fort Knox in Kentucky.
I spent my 18th birthday crawling in the orange clay that would stain all of our underclothes.
Funny thing is, I don't miss anything about that time of my life.
Great video, Aaron is the perfect sidekick!!!
Impressive work gentlemen.
@17:20 good catch Chris
Saved a free pit spill.
Some of the best. ❤❤❤❤
Mike got some good help he so nice he got you to do the work on your holiday lol
These collaborations are definitely my favourite videos. LDP18! 😂
ME LIKEY CASE DOZER....Case uses diesel engines supplied by company that use to be known as FIAT. Now the engines are in Case Tractors, New Holland Tractors, and Case Construction. I'm
impressed with the power and quiet running of that engine. Dirt Perfect should seriously consider purchasing Case next time. JimInCincy....
Congrats on making the Dam at the Canyon. everybody did a great job..
That part about restructuring was hilarious MBTS got cought off guard at first lol Chris will wave at yah !!😃👍👍👍
Definently gotta get dp out to north carolina to run your 330. Id be interested to hear mikes opinion of it
Love the video cause my two favorite chanel Guy's are together LetsDig18 and Dirt Perfect .
The back down the road gave me the willies and I am in my bed at home ! Don't know how you do it!
Mirrors, brakes, pay attention and don’t go too fast.
Yeah it's looking good. Won't be long. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
So. What was your thoughts on the Case dozer?
Are you thinking about a spill way over the top or near top ? Might come up !
They are talking about clay pipe for the spillway in next video.
Thanks Frank, i don't know if they could of put that dam in without your info. Between the two of them they have probably put a 100 dams in. Did you share your knowledge with them on those dams. I hope you did
How many are still in place. 😄
Frank is an accountant, but he did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night…
@@frankarchuleta5427 all of them
@manoffire260 He should have stayed at a Motel 6
