I've been watching Chris for a few good years now, and I think this is the first I've seen him manually use a shovel. The guy is so talented, I'm surprised he didn't use the shovel between the bucket and thumb to spread the gravel.
I’ve been watching for years now and what I’ve learned is that you have to know many different disciplines to do the one job you actually do daily! It’s impressive 😊
Stressful is an understatement - and seems there may be more on its way with the deep pool dig. It is quite the hole after all. Great to watch how sketchy this type of work can be. That old borrow pit wall is a problem for sure.
Chris - for those of your viewers who do not know exactly how to operate a 220 - could you in one of your videos demonstrate exactly which joystick and buttons you use to move the excavator boom arm whilst digging?
That clay is doing a fantastic job holding the pond water in place. It's testament to your pond making abilities Chris, like a resume! Make a pond, then dig a swimming pool next to it to show you did it right! Well.....you can't count the rocky layer letting in ground water, that's not the pond.
You do such fine work and I am so grateful you & the 220 didn't end up in the hole. Looking forward to the next segment of the Geoff pool. Thanks for sharing.
Here where i work in Denmark we dig drainpipe around pool and make a drain sump outside pool too keep groundwater Away,, we have alot of groundwater to mess with
@@Carlsensverden - Here, they generally install a hydrostatic valve in the bottom of the pool, which opens with enough ground water pressure and allows ground water into the pool. Of course, it only opens when it is empty and you are trying to paint the pool. 🙄
This video was great for a couple of reasons. It was definitely something different, never seen a pool like this done. But the best reason was that you had the camera in the excavator low enough to see your hands on the controls. Makes for the best videos, when you can see the relationship, between your hands and the boom/machine movements. Thanks! 👍🏻
Loved the drone shot, really put this huge project in perspective!! As usual, u r meticulous with every scoop. So enjoy. God's blessings and stay safe.
The Chris and Geoff Comedy hour brought to you by LetsDig18 Enterprises. With all that dirt, Geoff can build a 30 foot water slide?? Maybe not? Great video! Thumbs up! Stay safe! Jim
In this situation, many excavation contractors would have excavated a narrow 20’ deep trench between the pool area and the lake. They would have filled the bottom 15’ with gravel while installing an 20’ long vertical perforated pipe so they can drop a pump through the pipe to the bottom. That way all the pond water gets pumped back to the pond and it doesn’t make its way to the 18’ pool bottom. We have even lined what is the pool side and the bottom with 10mil vapor barrier to keep the side dry, when you are done, pull the pipe. drop the plastic in over the gravel, and fill in the last 3-5’ with dirt. We started doing this when we had a poured house foundation float up out of the hole due to groundwater pressure. The trench breaks that pressure. You should ultimates have a drain at the bottom of the pool with perforated pipe and gravel around the pool connected to the pool bottom drain.
Man that pool is gonna be impressive, that's gonna be a beautiful house with a beautiful pool, pond, green lush grass, I can already see it, gonna be sweet, thanks for sharing Chris an I look forward to seeing the next video 🇺🇲💪✊🤙👌👍
Appreciate you keeping the camera rolling when things got stressful. It's like that a lot of times, and good to know other deal with it too. Seems like the day turned out alright.
Geoff will be very happy to get to drive the skid steer. This hole will be a pool before the concrete is even in the ground. This is quite the project.
Wow! I was stressing out right along with you. One or two times my heart actually might have skipped a beat.😮 I have faith that you will git-r-done. Take care,stay safe and God Bless ya Brother!!!❤😊
For long runs use heavier gauge power cord/s and start with the heaviest at the power source. After the tool/motor/etc has been running a while feel the cord/s and connections to see if it is hot or very warm,a little warm may be ok,you be the judge. If it does get hot reconfigure something and try again. If it's too much trouble consider a generator and eliminate most of the cord but keep the heavier gauge in play. Maybe that sounds a bit much but it's better to err on the side of caution. You can also calculate draw and distance then look for cord gauge recommendations.
Chris your a great person i always look forward to your videos i know this pool dig is crazy mr bealy has you busy all the time but it will be worth it in the end you now have a place to go swimming
Gonna have to label this one Chris's biggest little dig. Small, deep and challenging. If onky that pesky pond side wasn't pouring out water and caving in. But, our intrepid Chris will get the job done that's for sure.
i agree with u chris this does look stressful but your expertise throughout clearly shows i love and enjoy your videos seeing how u do your jobs its interesting greetings from the uk
That was one serious amount of dirt you had to remove,just for this section of pool.like you said you might need to get Barney and dozer and big front end loader to get all that dirt moved out of the way,so you can get around with the equipment.great video as always.just continue doing what you do best.don’t stress yourself out,won’t help.👍👍👍😎😎😎
You know, I’m sensing a little bit of resentment toward Jeff in some recent comments. The guy works hard and apparently has more than a dollar or two in his pocket. But he has a right to spend whatever money he has as he sees fit.
Worked 30+ years on a barrier island in New Jersey, 2-3 foot down and we were hitting water. Depending on the size of the hole and the depth it was either a couple of well points on a 3 inch pump or a complete well point system on a 6 inch pump to dewater the job site.
Chris , did you try moving the control for the tilt bucket back and forth to relieve the pressure from the quick connect ? Sometimes those spool valves tend to stick if you don't use them occasionally .
I’ve been thinking for a while that Chris could really use a decent sized wheel loader. They are so much more efficient at moving materials than a crawler loader, and much more manoeuvrable than Barney is in tighter quarters. I’m sure C&C could fix him up with a good unit. But it’s not my dollar I’m spending, either!!
enjoyed the video, bit stressful for you, hope it all goes well with keeping the ground water out, can't wait to see what comes next, stay safe Chris..
Looks like that diving area is going to be impossible for Geoff and especially Mrs. Bealy Good to touch the bottom. Definitely an interesting episode watching Cris dig out what's possibly the toughest challenging holes yet given how that pond end keep caving in.
Knew this Pool was gonna be a bit deep on one side, but when you see Chris start digging it out, that things is DEEP!, Chris knew there was gonna be ground water from there, but was not expecting it to be coming out where it was, but glad they have it under control and Geoff has the pump working. See what happens tomorrow.
In the Netherlands at a job like this, two weeks before you put in what we call bronbemaling in the ground to solve the ground water problem. Pipes sticking 20 feet in the ground sucking out all the ground water so you have a nice dry place to dig in the ground. In the Netherlands ground water is never deep, in my back yard less than two feet... Someone please look up bronbemaling and do you use it in the US.

Yeah I agree on the intimidating factor of a wall greater than 10' that is shear. while not as common where I currently reside because of he level of hard compacted red clay, where I used to live, if a hole was anything more than eight feet, a trench box or some sort of wall stabilizer was required even if it was benched in. It wasn't unusual to see a hold for bridge footings go down some sixty to eight feet and six to eight ten foot wall boxes stacked, braced and welded together to give the rebar teams and form assemblers a safe place and then a whole day devoted to lift and cutting the boxes apart at the fish plates and weld seamed. There, digging the hole was the quick part because it was mostly sand, so by hand you could knock out a six to eight foot deep hole in about a hour. Where I live now, an hour will get you a few inches into the clay. Right there with you on pulling the edge back, because this is letsdig18, not letsdigchrisout18 Seeing big holes like this i sometimes get a little idle thought going of a "what if..?" sort of thing. Like what if hydraulic machines were not a thing more than a novelty. So it was a lot of cable dozers, drags, and you had to use a crane with a clam shell or drag line, cable hoe and a cable shovel, how much longer this sort of digging would take if it was taken as a project at all.
Chris, Have you found any prehistoric sharks teeth while digging that deep hole. My brother-n-law used to work for Crowder Construction decades ago building highways for NC and he had a box full of black fossilized prehistoric sharks teeth he used to keep in the bed of his truck. Some were 5-6" across. Talk about prehistoric bad breath. That shit could knock a building down! 😂

Pool guy. Shells can pop out of the ground from the hydraulic pressure. However, the weight of the pool water holds them down. The dangerous part is when you have to drain it for some reason like a repair or resurface. Typically you drain it and drill a hole in the bottom as a vent. Then patch at the end of the repair and fill it quick.
The name of this building, might be applicable as the Coliseum, 😊😊.it's definitely a truly fantastic build. I am definitely keeping watch on the process till the end. 😊.
Perfection in the making .. has we no the soil doubles up when dug out could have done with a dumper just saying Chris 🤔 going to be some size pool Chris 🎱
Hard pan Clay that's what we call it up here in northern Wisconsin, just like digging into black top, it's so darn hard, and if you can use a auger type of tool that will hook up to your machine you might want to invest in one.
I’ve dug many many pools…liner pools with only 2” tolerance for the vermiculite, rectangles with many levels and free forms, all kinds…but never seen one like this with such a sheer wall deep end…better have everything fenced off and locked up…remember Bode Miller!
Might be a good idea to put in a few monitoring wells. around the pool so they can keep track of ground water level. Had a friend who emptied their pool to save money and in came the heavy rains, and it floated the pool out of the ground. It if were me, I would have opted to not have the bottom of the pool below the pond level. Just sayin'.
