Love your burning videos. Seeing that big pile burn ragingly during a huge downpour gives such great insight into the wildfires we have out West. We'll get some rain and the question always is: 'Why didn't it help?' Thanks for your entertainment, education, and example. Your videos are worth stopping whatever I'm doing so I can watch them.😁Thanks
The Rain is come and You can the last Piles to burn. The Planning Exactly, and with the Glow to burn the Lumber nearly all. The Video good it is to see how You the Fire to guard. 🔥🔥
Charlotte's average is 42" per year. A year when a Hurricane blows in can raise that quite a bit. Here in S. Florida, a Hurricane can dump that much in two days. We currently are in the 28" for the year for the area already, which is 7inches above normal.
Raleigh's average annual precipitation is around 45 inches. This year May and June have been dry with below normal precipitation but it's supposedly an el niño year so it should be wetter than normal. We'll see as the summer is usually the wettest period.
Does it drop the air temp a lot there when it rains? Here in Idaho it could be 90 degrees and if it rains more than ten minutes it’ll drop the temp down 20-30 degrees.
Down here in Southern Florida, A rain can drop it from 99° down into the lower 70s. But then the humidity goes sky high. Currently it is 75° with 96% humidity. And yes, it rained, a lot.
Chris, a fire needs axygen to start. It was buried under all those other logs. It didn't have enough of that to start it burning. It isn't important how hot the ashes were either. That's the reason why it never started burning.
It's not that way. It needs oxygen to burn. It will be slightly smudged on the outside, except with no oxygen, it won't burn. Do you have the courage to try that experiment? Go on, try it. Don't be a coward.
@@landrelarose745 Maybe you aren't old enough to have done it but some of us did it back in Jr High School. Nearly 60 years ago. Heating wood in the absence of oxygen has long been a way of making charcoal. And it is still done that way even today. Destructive distillation of wood produces hundreds of compounds together with a solid residue of charcoal. There are even youtube videos of charcoal being made. th-cam.com/video/MVtXZKLKQZI/w-d-xo.html
I'm well past the age you think I am. My 56th birthday was yesterday. I was studying for most of my life. I was possibly studying automobiles more than you were alive. I additionally went to middle school. Since 1980, the federal government changed this. They got rid of middle school, which they put with primary school. You should never assume you know about another person who you didn't meet before. When the ash surrounded that stump, it was cool enough not to burn it severally. It was especially cooler at the bottom of it because it had more time to cool. Could you think of any other way it was able to be? It's quite logical to me.
@@landrelarose745 Middle school still exists. Maybe not where you are but it does here. So the US Federal Government didn't get rid of them. In fact there is one less than a mile from me right now. So you are 56, add more than 12 to that to get my age. So by the time you were born I had been in 6 different elementary schools, and one junior high school. Both types varied as to which grades they had depending on where I was. 5 of the 6 were 1-6 with the other as 1-5. The JR high had 6-8. As far as autos go, I was rebuilding them/ driving them when you were just going to elementary school. You were 6 years old when I bought my first car. Yes ash can serve to insulate but a hot enough fire will still cook off the gases and produce charcoal.
Young man when you get to the point your starting fires underwater I would buy a front row seat for the event, you definitely have the nack for starting fires and getting them to burn down to ashes. Thanks for the update, always a treat to see an LD18 fire sir.
Like watching you load up the wood when restacking the burn piles. Envious with being able to pick and choose and re-position the unburned pieces for a better fire. The excavator with thumb is a great choice.
There must be something satisfying about running the excavator in the rain there definitely is something satisfying about watching it work in the rain lol
One thing I definitely wasn't surprised when Chris said it was about how he's the only guy who could get a bonfire roaring in a pouring down wannabe monsoon rain. We all know that by the time those piles are done burning there won't be enough left to roart some hot dogs and smores. Definitely topped off my Sunday night TH-cam watching. Saved the best for last I did.
Sitting here, listening to the looseness in your excavator, from lots of use, I wonder how we could make the joints self-healing. And I have an idea about that. So I'll go see if someone has already done it. I love a challenge!
I always thing of a few comedians skits when I see Chris burning... the one that comes to mind the most... Jeff Foxworthy.. "Seems a shame to have a fire so big without a pig on top!".... then there's Eddie Murphy from Delirious... "Now that's a fire!"
Funny. Im sitting here with my pit burning down after taking the brisket off and watching the smoke coming off of your fire. Its like I can smell you working. Lol.
Oh Yeah, Burnt down good !! Great as always Chris, Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !! Yeah Man, We got Storms Blowing up right now !! Coming into Western Ky.
That is because those Ashes were smothering what needs to get burned. And was not able to get any Air to Burn. And with something like that. It will Burn for a very long time very slowly.
You are so fortunate to live in a state where you can burn. I have a 67 acre property in NJ and you need all but an act of congress to get permission to burn brush on it. Definitely not ideal...

A pyromaniac that also likes to occasionally dig in the dirt 😊
The flames just shows his passion for digging.
@@Jack.333 It’s showing solidarity with Chris’s
@@BealyGoodI believe you have a slightly damp drone for sale 😂
@@jjMcCartan9686 Retrieval costs are too high
@@BealyGood Next time you'll put pontoons on it.
Hi Chris, that place is looking better every day you work there 😀. Thanks for sharing, and may God bless you.
Improved. productivity, reduced hauling and time wasted!! Win,Win!!
When you bake wood in the absence of oxygen you make charcoal. The black bits of wood from in the ashes has been turned to charcoal.
4 more acres to clear. Nice. The kind of customer you want.
I love burning brush/trash piles. Get a fire burning hot enough and no rain will put it out.
The Rain is come and You can the last Piles to burn.

Your the man Chris 👌😎🍺
Another great video playing with camp fires bro. Safe travels. Ken Allen.
That's why your the Professor of Excavating

“Burn For You” or “Digging In The Dirt” 🎶😊
I love watching gcapable men at work.
Burning real good 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
What ever happened to the 250? I see videos from the past that state you love how much material you could move with it.
That’s his uncle’s machine, Chris has two Volvo 220 excavators.
Has it "always" rained this much in the state of North Carolina? or are the climate tariffs right?

do you still work for your uncle, never see any videos of John anymore
That's probably your answer there
Boa noite meu amigo like ótimo trabalho abraço

And depending on how hot it got, it could become charcoal which will burn up quickly.

Chris, didn’t your mommy ever tell you that if you play with fire then you’ll pee to bed?
😂😂😂😂😂11 second
:)
Dear volvo, i dont like getting wet lighting fires in the rain, any chance of a flamethrower attachment?😂😂😂

You need rain to start your fire, we need rain here (Québec) to stop the fire.
Great to have a early Friday. Your spotted buddy will enjoy the extra time with you. Now find a chair and a cold beer to wash the taste of ashes off.
Chris knows how to make a fire - even in heavy rain.
Sure does!
Great Video Chris the Week is complete!!👍👍
I would bet that Chris could have made a bonfire in the middle of the great flood of Noah’s Ark! Well done sir.
Don't get washed away in those rivers with that lightweight machine you are riding in. 😆😆
That's charcoal Chris

15:00 Yup, fire needs air and ashes can smother the fire.
I could fall asleep in the cab with that rain...😅
Builder of bonfires, builder of ponds.excels at both.
There must be something satisfying about running the excavator in the rain there definitely is something satisfying about watching it work in the rain lol
Hey I love your videos and Im wanting to start my own TH-cam I run mainly cat. Any tips? and what camera equipment do you use
One thing I definitely wasn't surprised when Chris said it was about how he's the only guy who could get a bonfire roaring in a pouring down wannabe monsoon rain.
We all know that by the time those piles are done burning there won't be enough left to roart some hot dogs and smores.
Definitely topped off my Sunday night TH-cam watching.
Saved the best for last I did.
Nice to see some good fires again
Always nice to have a short day, especially on a Friday. Thanks for sharing.
THANKS!
Thinking we need a farm pond update! Whatever happened to Jason? Does anybody know? Sorry if I got the name wrong🤔👌
I think his name is Justin. Not positive about it. I've been wondering the same thing. When he and Chris got together the laughs were great.
Yeah, I think he means Justin or Timmy. I would like to see both of them sometime
@@ryanhoward1013 Both have shown up in his videos after they left.
Sitting here, listening to the looseness in your excavator, from lots of use, I wonder how we could make the joints self-healing. And I have an idea about that. So I'll go see if someone has already done it. I love a challenge!
Always enjoy the burn videos!! Have a good Friday!!
Two great fires and no hotdogs or s'mores
Could hear his mind singing. Im burning in the rain just burning inthe rain. Or i set fire in the rain.
With that amount of rain it was a wonder that anything burned but of course, they are LetsDig18 fires - burn and burn well they will :)
I always thing of a few comedians skits when I see Chris burning... the one that comes to mind the most... Jeff Foxworthy.. "Seems a shame to have a fire so big without a pig on top!".... then there's Eddie Murphy from Delirious... "Now that's a fire!"
You feel about fire as I do , can't stop adding to it , in it's own disastrous way it's calming,meaning I could watch it All day.
It’s surprising how well all the stumps burn up. Raking through the ashes and re-stacking is the key to a pile burning up completely.
Smart Man ,,,Ashes are great for the soil ! Spread em out !& Let's Dig 18 ,!!!
How did your new pond do with the rain?
The Burn Master goes home early? On a Friday... That is a first. Have a great weekend. You did good.
Nice job Chris
Love your burn videos
What is up with uncle John?
Chris is working for himself now.
Nice video for a Sunday afternoon Chris.
Great video thanks Chris
I wonder how his new pond at home looks after that rain?
GOTTA LOVE A BIG ASS FIRE...LOL...GOOD ONE, KEEP SAFE.
Happy birthday mom
Funny. Im sitting here with my pit burning down after taking the brisket off and watching the smoke coming off of your fire. Its like I can smell you working. Lol.
Great video.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Love the burn piles decreasing in size very fast
agree
Waking up and seeing the daylight is happy enough. Turning those stumps into ashes helps lots for future property owners.
👍🔥😉
Burn baby burn
Camp fires are hypnotic.
👍🏻👍🏻
You could steam a pot of good shellfish with those fires, Chris.
👍🙏👍
Oh Yeah, Burnt down good !! Great as always Chris, Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !! Yeah Man, We got Storms Blowing up right now !! Coming into Western Ky.
Should help fill your pond
Job well done 👍🏻
Nice the rain stopped time to get the fire started
That is because those Ashes were smothering what needs to get burned. And was not able to get any Air to Burn. And with something like that. It will Burn for a very long time very slowly.

Great job 👏
I have to admit I’m skeptical when you say the fire will restart when wet but heck if it doesn’t.
They say, smoke follows beauty! How do you keep the smoke from following ya?
Don't waste precious diesel for fire starter. Drain oil works great when you have some handy.
Fire building added to resume. Looking good. God's blessings.
I agree with everyone else he does make a good 🔥 but he forget to bring the weenies😅
He let the smoke out
At best under all the ashes, I think you would make charcoal but it has to be really hot to do that. I, think! Great fires, though. Lots of fun.
You really know how to make a fire rain or shine thanks for the video
👍👍🙂🇨🇦🔥🔥
why is that water dripping down the middle of the front windshield driving me crazy? I know because its not supposed to be.
I wonder if he ever thinks about getting a big chipper? One on tracks that he can operate with remote in his excavator
Howdy Chris
Wow the first campfire is all gone it seems you got beter at this fire stuff.
Your losing your accent. Is that from getting older. Cool campfire. Get out the marshmallows...lll
It is flame. A deep roaring flame. I can feel it now! If anybody knows where that comes from, you're probably okay! Lol
Such fun work! glad you can share you work with us!
Absolutely green with envy right now. Watching from the UK, dry as a bone
Yes
Good job Chris
