I always get happy when you say you have a big project because they're usually the ones I enjoy watching the most. Seeing the project evolve from a patch of woods into something amazing is fascinating, especially with your work ethic and dedication to a project well done.
I have started running the replay at x 2 in the settings it is much better than normal and can be entertaining watching just how quick the work is done when it's run faster.
That "yellow" tree that you called out near minute 25 is Osage Orange. The sap wood is that bright yellow. They heart wood is almost an amber color. That wood is prized by some of us wood turners.
Yellowwood (a.k.a. Virgilia, gopherwood, yellow locust, yellow ash) is a slow growing, medium-sized tree, averaging thirty-five to fifty feet at maturity, with a broad rounded crown.
I watching you operate the 250. Big tree no problem just ripped it out. Crush the building. 250 is a dirt moving machine. Can't wait Chris to see the next days work.
As mentioned, the yellow tree was an ancient osage orange. Great for fencing, thorns on them like needles. Root around and see if you can find some fruit, get the seeds and plant it if you wish.
@@shittylitty Yup, different parts of the country call em different things. I brought some from Maryland and planted em North of Allentown PA and they did really well as fence lines. Rabbits and grouse love to hide in them. We have too many foxes. Then we used them in NC. They are doing just fine. I like em cause they are not at all invasive like some plants. Seeds germinate well and if set right, nothing will get through a hedge of osage orange. Their wood is prized and very expensive. Chris probably broke $300 worth. lol
hey Chris if its not too much hassle Id appreciate seeing the entire burn from star to finish. We never really get to see the end result of your burns & personally its more satisfying in its entirety.
Great stick work. Really smooth operator... However that was way more than 3 dollars of metal. Restaurants pay big dollars for old rusty "gold" metal like that.... and the wood
Chris any chance you could revisit that job where you made that lake and put that road across it, be good to see it again now it’s growing over, that was a massive job
Chris.. that yellow tree in question looks like a mulberry or Osage orange... both are yellow and have long roots and brittle branches.. I HATE them ! LOLOL. Job looks great and excellent camera and narration
Highly recommend a big transportable brazier. I'm in New Zealand & seen one that goes onto a low loader trailer. Burns as you work & pull it along with you using the digger. Bottom is on big skids.
Chris, that was a Yellowwood tree. I read some call it Virgilia. It's native and fairly rare. I'd imagine the price is good. 😉 When you finished off the barn and grabbed that huge bucket full for the truck my respect for the 250, and the difference between it and the 220, went up a notch. I wonder big a tree a 380 could pull up by the roots. 🤔
i like your volvo excavator you make it look easy to Operate and it looks like alot of fun hows the horn sound on it and i like how all of your videos are different
You need to fabricate a gopro mount to a strong neodymium magnet to put on that arm looking down on the bucket. Would make for fire footage when you.....feed the fire
SO, you have just Finished this job today And I am just getting to where you’re starting it.. 🤓😎👍✅ All them woods n trees there 22:00. Look just like here in N. Floow’da and we have 50 types of evel vines ( my wife calls them) that you just can’t get rid of.. For Good, they are all over under the ground...!!
That yellow wood tree is called: Osage Orange, Bois-D'arc, Hedge Apple, & Horse Apple, depending on who you are listening to. The French called it Bois-D'arc because it was used for making bows for bows and arrows. It's also called hedge apple because it was used for making hedgerows for cattle containment before barbed wire was invented; it has long thorns and can be grown into thick hedge rows.
The gnarly tree appears to be, or was, an Osage Orange. The color is right and the twisted massive root structure is right. As a teen we cleared a quarter mile of fence row populated with those dratted trees. The only thing they are good for is making turned bowls for decoration. They suck as fence posts and are pitiful as firewood. Thanks for the video on a cold and rainy night here in Virginia.
Another great video doing great work. Retired guy like myself from North Carolina would love to learn your knowledge. Your talent is truly amazing. Thought I saw you a few months ago in Knightdale NC, but it wasn't you.
Nice video Chris. Always enjoy your content. Love these clearing and pond building Ones prolly the best. This sounds like it’s gonna be a fun project to follow along with. Can’t wait to see the end result.
Wish I'd had known about that little barn type deal, lobed to have recycled that wood for some wood projects, hate to see that old wood go to waste, if you ever come across more of that id take it, build something nice with it
@@letsdig18 what ever happened to the other massive project where you were cutting ditches to drain off the "swamp". The project the other contractor got kicked off of?
I like to sit in your cab and watch you move stuff around and how you approach different projects. I especially like to see how excavating is done and how your able to explain the reason for the different task (like the borrow pit). I like your videos they're very interesting but they need to have some sort of sequence. I want to see it from start to finish without all the repetitiveness. Could you explain the different sizes of excavators 220 vs 160 and how those id's were developed?
A member of the legume family, Fabaceae, the yellow wood (Cladrastis kentukea) has a botanical name synonym of Cladrastis lutea. Other common names for yellow wood include American yellow wood, virgilia and gopherwood. Some authors write the name as one word, "yellowwood."
Such a cool project. Is this a private gun range on someone's personal property or is it going to be a commercial? I would love to have my own gun range on my property!
When our local gun club expanded some , we called the NRA . They have some people who come out and look stuff over and make suggestions. Our rifle backstop is really tall .🤔 Great work as usual Chris 👍👍👍
Chris you and I are a lot alike one the way we think and the way we do things. If I lived there and was 30 years younger we would be best friends like you and Justin.

Awsome video Chris ....that tree that was yellow could be 1 or 2 diff types .....course the old stand by would be called >> Osage orange/Hedge apple or it could be >>>Cladrastis kentukea, the Kentucky yellowwood or American yellowwood .....alot of history behind the 2 diff types ...LOL there ya go some useless knowledge in my head.
believe that yellow wood u called it is prob Osage Orange, short log that's not the straightest and limbs and branches that go everywhere, worth the time to learn to identify, valuable to bow makers. also called hedge apple,
Bois D`Arc (Osage Orange) The Bois D’arc tree has many common names including Osage Orange, horse apple, hedge apple and more. This is the tree that native Americans, especially the Osage Indians, preferred for their bows and arrows. This tree was described by French explorers as “Bois D’arc” which means bow wood

Some people just use a chain saw to trim trees.......not Chris....it's a 250 🙄🙄😁😁
Very nice again Chris, a very big project 👍👌⚠️🎄🎅🌲🎅
Lol those piles have a lot to be desired Chris, cleanup on aisle two😁
Osage Orange, Bodark, Bois d'arc, bow wood, hedge apple (same thing, different names). Very hard wood. Native Americans used it to make their bows.
Interesting how many different names for the yellow wood tree. We call them Osage Orange.
Always enjoy burn videos.
Fire! Fire! Fire!
Thanks.
Bodock where I am (or hedgeapple tree)

This is sounding a lot like what I want to have done on my property...anxiously watching. :D
That yellow tree looked like a Bodock also called Osage Orange to me.
In Kansas we call it hedge or hedge apple really good firewood!
Great stick work. Really smooth operator... However that was way more than 3 dollars of metal. Restaurants pay big dollars for old rusty "gold" metal like that.... and the wood
Chris any chance you could revisit that job where you made that lake and put that road across it, be good to see it again now it’s growing over, that was a massive job
A pond and a gun range, I'd be in seventh heaven.
Ain't it crazy how watching u make a hole in the ground that holds water in it gets me all excited ??!!! I know. I'm crazy. Lol

I could be wrong, but I believe that tree is a Hedge Apple (Osage).
Find someone who says “well hey there” to you like Chris says it to his 250 💗
wt none lol! Same!
Quite a little obvious love affair he has with ol Brutus lol. Can hear the love in his voice

I know that tree it's a locust tree flowers smell really good and the flowers form into beans that turn brown

I love watching the burning 🔥 videos you do. Wish you could do all burning 🔥 videos. Love all the videos you do

“Well hey there”
Pond and shooting range. All it needs now to be perfect for me is a 2 bed, 2 bath cottage and a 20 car barn...
Wish I'd had known about that little barn type deal, lobed to have recycled that wood for some wood projects, hate to see that old wood go to waste, if you ever come across more of that id take it, build something nice with it
When you ain't around no one can do anything like you can, cuz you don't have dirt in anything that you burn
Great video Chris enjoyed watching
Dig a 2-4 foot trench, optional, add brush. Get detroit 353 connected to a blower for dust collector. Blow fire. Gone in no time
Possibly the yellow tree is Osage orange. Great program, Cheers. K B
tree looks like a box elder
Nice outside video of you and christine eating up some trees and vines 😀😎👍👍
So therapeutic to watch this. Add some forced air to a wet pile and it will roar. Get you a gas powered leaf blower.
Hey there's the 250, I hope that you able to do some more giveaways again soon!!!
Have you tried to use a road flare when starting a difficult burn pile. If not try it.
This project needs drone footage! 😂😂😂
I might bring it out and blow the dust off it lol
@@letsdig18 hell yeah!
@@letsdig18 what ever happened to the other massive project where you were cutting ditches to drain off the "swamp". The project the other contractor got kicked off of?

Read 20 comments, got 4 different expert IDs on that tree. So much for learning something...
Rock truck drivers must get sick of the beeps. I wonder if you make a more pleasant beep. Like a hogga horn. Lol
Hedge or Hobart make fence post years ago
We call those yellow trees here in Indiana. mulberry
Two burn piles is like early Christmas!
Tree looks to be a American yellowwood.
Nice one Chris , thanks for the video 👏👏👏👍🇬🇧
It’s a Mulberry Tree. We have them on MD and the are a scrub tree
you guys doing a great job there. 👍☕️🍩

I believe it’s called, No Pleasing You.. thx for your videos....
Osage orange has yellow wood and orange roots. Dont see any orange on the roots. Easy to identify due to it being a thorny tree.
Yep, you can always use some 5-gallon buckets.
Love burning Vid's...smell of smoke, diesel and dirt...oh yea!
Tree by barn maybe mock orange if you have those there.
think the tree you're referring to was a mulberry as usually it produces wood with a yellowish tint
Whew......chrissy saves the day again! Must be exhausting being so perfect.
We call those trees mulberry. They have that yellow looking wood.

Love the videos. Everyone knows that you are good. But how about a oh shit, I just messed up video?
Keep up the great work and be safe God bless Chris!!!!!
Such a cool project. Is this a private gun range on someone's personal property or is it going to be a commercial? I would love to have my own gun range on my property!
I like that machine it's bad ass worker
That old yellow wood is an Osage orange, or hedge tree. Burns hot as a forge and never rots.
Yup... Love to see that burning in my jotul stove instead of a burn pile. Probably burned up what would heat my house for 10 years.
I hope to see a nice long video of you swinging dirt into that Moxy Truck
Drone footage would be nice.
good lord jungle took over the barn lol
As I always say OCD works for me and cleanliness is next to godliness
Ran a 250 today for the first time. Most fun i have ever had at work.
I know what that tree is, it’s a “GONER” tree as in SEE YA!
10-4 on the 5 gal buckets!
The side view around 19:00 was a good view bro
When our local gun club expanded some , we called the NRA . They have some people who come out and look stuff over and make suggestions. Our rifle backstop is really tall .🤔
Great work as usual Chris 👍👍👍
Does the 250 sit between big jobs? It seems like we didn't see it for a long time then it just showed back up.
yeah its been sitting down there for about 5 weeks

And I was needing some buckets lol
First thing i thought when i saw the 250's bucket: a nice siced bucket instead of the 220's👌
The volvo veggiesaurus is grazing again......
Could be mulberry. I have taken several out that look a lot like that.
The tree is osage orange also called hedge apple makes great fence post
Or mulberry
Nothing like a good fire!!
From the looks of the wood, it's a Osage Orange or commonly referred to as a Hedge Apple. Its probably the hottest burning wood ou TV there.
Are you going to upgrade your digger to a bigger one like the 750 or you sticking to the small one for jobs
