Sure glad this one popped up. It would have been a bummer day if we didn't have a Chris Letsdig18 episode to watch with dinner. Always like Chris and Uncle John working together episodes. They're definitely a really good team on jobs.
Chris raises the pond level! Up here in CT, you'd probably have to get the DEP involved and do a study to see if the Egrets legs are suffciently long enough to continue fishing...
It’s far worse, I know of a pond with a failing dam for which it’s deemed will lead to loss of life when it fails and CT DEEP won’t let it be drained because it has an invasive weed!
John taught him everything he knows and they have been teaching EACH OTHER ever since!! Great way to grow better over time. Share all of your joint knowledge!!
@@shitloveaduck Chris was working in this field before John started so John didn't teach him his grandfather did and I bet his grandfather is the proudest person in heaven looking down on Chris saying that's my boy look at him go I'm so proud of him 👍👍👍👍God bless you Chris and thank you for the videos
Yeah John use to be a machinist. But they both been around the work there whole life. Family business usually involves almost everyone at one point or another for the occasion help when needed.
@@erikcourtney1834 - cool, both of ya! Nice to learn about people that are interesting like Chris and John. I assumed when Chris said he worked for John that John taught him. I have watched the older videos, but not all of them and didn’t get the information shared today. See, sharing information makes all of us just a little smarter,,,,, or at lest ME in this case,,, hahaha. Stay safe everyone, Eh!
John has a tendency to get y’all some interesting projects,what the hell just wing it.have that on a t shirt.keep it up and stay alert you never know when,what,how.good video as always 😎😎😎👍👍👍
Nice work, can tell that you and John are on the same page and know what the other is going to do or needs with little to no conversation. Thanks very much for sharing.
What an efficient crew you two are. Bang, bang, bang old pipe out, new pipe in. No wasted effort, just smooth competent work. Love seeing that. I know NC needs rain, I just hope you guys get what you want & need and no more.
It’s amazing that y’all have that much pond work. There’s a lot more of them around y’all than me but still yet I never hear of or see anyone working on any near me. Dirt perfect is the only one I’ve seen doing anything but he’s on the other side of the river. I advertise for pond construction and maintenance but never really see anything.
u sure u can handle that huge excavator chris lol haha . its better than a shovel thats for sure . its how i learned how to drive diggers was a small kubota . . brilliant wee machines . those tonne and a half . hope you keepin well and john too . take care man .
Every time I watch you two work together I cringe. 0 eye contact. I suppose you two have worked together so long, you can read each others minds. I require eye contact. I insist on eye contact. I used to operate cranes and logging equipment with lots of kinetic energy. I never hurt anyone. 🤘😎
Believe that may get a good workout , If that Hurricane turns back and makes landfall on you guys !! Not looking to good right now , they are saying ?? can't never tell just what those Hurricanes are going to do... But, you guys got it knocked right on out, I know their glad to have gotten that fixed before the shit hits the fan !! lolol... Great as always Chris !! HAve a Great Evening Man !! And, On too the Next !!
Nice job as always. You need to auction off more bucket teeth. 2 at 1525 and the 3rd at 1125. With time left. You can buy new ones with your auction money.
There are some Positives of Living in certain parts of the Country but IAN has got a LOT of people rethinking their Strategy. GOD Bless ALL Affected. 👍🙏
Question why did you put the fill on the pond side, is it because you are filling in the last section of pipe with clay? Thank you and have an awesome day.
The old stuff was corrugated metal. The new stuff is ADS and smooth inside. Not sure on the specifics of this job but you make it what ever it needs to be to get water from here to there based on your elevations.
Sure glad this one popped up.
It would have been a bummer day if we didn't have a Chris Letsdig18 episode to watch with dinner.

Chris and John another great job by hard working guys! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

@@timothyspanos7308 yet if it does fail the weeds will come with the water so kinda shows their illogical thinking 🤔
Nice job men. Making it look easy is one of your trademarks Chris.

Gotta keep them golfers happy! Thanks for sharing Chris!
I'm always delighted for Chris when it seems like he doesn't have to do the seed'n'straw part. :)
John has a tendency to get y’all some interesting projects,what the hell just wing it.have that on a t shirt.keep it up and stay alert you never know when,what,how.good video as always 😎😎😎👍👍👍
Nice repair/ replacement, I’m betting it’s going to there a good long while. Thanks for the ride along sir.
Quick little project. Sure wish uncle John would warm up to the camera but understand!! Enjoyed!!
It would be a great video of John doing all the talking he seems to be a very nice man just like Chris 👍 👍
Man, I bet they're glad you were able to get this done before the hurricane hits!
What state are you in? Hopefully not Florida
NC is a big target for this storm for sure.
I'm from NJ; at this point we're not sure how much rain (if any) we'll get. NC, on the other hand, will probably get at least 5-10"!
Lawnmower guy knows live entertainment when he sees it.
Nice work, can tell that you and John are on the same page and know what the other is going to do or needs with little to no conversation. Thanks very much for sharing.
I love the teamwork between you and John, getting that old pipe out was treat this evening.
Yes!
Left hand/right hand.
Wow,....that pipe was harder that getting grandpa out of he's favorite chair!!! Lol. Good job! :)
Excellent video 👌
Looks like you got this job done for the client just in time for all the rain coming. Take care & cheers 🐨🦘🥰
Golf balls blocked it! Neat work on a mess - the force of water. Stay safe all.
Nicely done.
The whole pond looked bad . But at least the overflow pipe is better than before
I say, what a smooth operation! short, simple and well done! Except I did not see any "Balloons!. Did you find any balloons?
Chris how many times a day working in the golf course do you here , THATS NOT HOW WE DO IT UP NORTH. 😂👍
Great job Chris, great videos
Nice video a great one to share with others.
Good job Chris. Way to make a mess look good.
Way to go Chris, you and John done a fine job on this one.
All in a days work. Some projects are easy and some are, well you know.
Yea I would never have the pipe stick out that far from the dam. Best guess is the other one floated off
Nice teamwork as always.
Just Fantastic - a Great Job well done - Team Work at its Best - New Pipe Installed ! Nice Video and many Cheers from us in Australia !!!!
Love ya work mate..gday from Australia 🇦🇺
What an efficient crew you two are. Bang, bang, bang old pipe out, new pipe in. No wasted effort, just smooth competent work. Love seeing that. I know NC needs rain, I just hope you guys get what you want & need and no more.
I think they may be getting more than enough and too quickly to be safe thanks to Ian
@@bfcmik Sadly, I agree. Raleigh area is predicted to get 1-3 inches.
Neat stuff 😎 👍. Enjoyed watching

At first glance Chris I thought your uncle was attempting to beat that box into submission!😆
Little job but very well done Chris&John 👍🏻
I always love how you explain what you're doing, especially with something like the filler around that old pipe. Love this channel!
That was a quick little project looks good
u sure u can handle that huge excavator chris lol haha . its better than a shovel thats for sure . its how i learned how to drive diggers was a small kubota . . brilliant wee machines . those tonne and a half . hope you keepin well and john too . take care man .
The outlet for that pond looks more like it should be an inlet. It may just be the camera, but the water level looks higher on the down side.

You and John work together great job of making it look great job keep up the excellent work 💪👷
..LOOKIN' GOOD, NICE WORK, KEEP SAFE..
Good job guy's on small job .
Looks like The Crossings... #9 is a fun par 5. Great work... I enjoy watching every night
Well done. That should handle the water the falls from the sky and runs into the pond.
Chris, saw a new 160EL today that had a blade. Fixed did not angle.
Nice teamwork😀
Banjo playing in the background, it’s dueling Yanmars
They missed a perfect opportunity to dredge some of that mud. Liked the coordination of machines. Well done!
Nice job as always. You need to auction off more bucket teeth. 2 at 1525 and the 3rd at 1125. With time left. You can buy new ones with your auction money.
The old yanmar looks like a good candidate for new pins and bushings!
Shimes between the bucket ears and stick.
And another fine job 👍👍
So all the ponds you have built are about to fill up. 💯
@ 12 mins all I could hear was Diesel Creek singing “in a world of OSHA violations” 😂😂😂 looks awesome after though.
Nice fix up another pond repair from Letsdig18 😀👍👍😎
your dump truck has got to be the cream puff of North Carolina!
Making sure that you don't have any dam problems with the impending storm that is forecasted for the weekend.
Fascinating 👍👍👏🏻👏🏻
Great repair great video thanks Chris and John
Big or small, you treat every job, like it's a million dollar project, your proffesional in every aspect of the word, another fine job!👊💪
Awesome work Chris and John, excellent job.
Wonder what the real time on job was for this? Drive in to drive off. 🤔
Looks like Mom Nature won that one, I hope she likes your fix .
There are some Positives of Living in certain parts of the Country but IAN has got a LOT of people rethinking their Strategy. GOD Bless ALL Affected. 👍🙏
Love how you are not knocking uncle in the muck
You make it look easy
Great job, everything looks great, but operator's hat is in a desperate need going through a washing machine (or a hurricane) :)
Never forget family!!!!!
Surprise surprise, more rotted CMP. It gets really bad up here where we get salted roads for 6 months a year.
Will be interesting to see how you pack clay around a pipe that is half under water. Guins Excavating doing fine work - still.
A nice job for you and john easy
👍🏻👍🏻because one is never enough. Great job Chris and John
Nice work as always
Question why did you put the fill on the pond side, is it because you are filling in the last section of pipe with clay? Thank you and have an awesome day.
Easy peasy for you, good job!
The coming storm should fill all the ponds you built.
That old pile would be great fish structure for a pond. Wire a brick or two in it and sink it.
No fear, the pond fixers are here
Nice job as always!
This is a compliment ! Puts me to sleep watching and hearing the machine go back and forth. Mesmerizing !
DAMgood job Chris 😁👍
Handy that the bucket on the mini can be reversed
Fun little project you say Chris? Dawns Trusting you haha!🌞☘️
I wonder who got to shovel all the mud out of the catch basin? Great job!
Twin Yanmars Chris? 🙂
Chris what is the rate of Fall that you put on something like that. Especially that it is Corrugated.
The old stuff was corrugated metal. The new stuff is ADS and smooth inside. Not sure on the specifics of this job but you make it what ever it needs to be to get water from here to there based on your elevations.
that's a great save, guys.
Honest question, why not just shoot the concrete? does it carry like a cleaning fee for the truck?
He didn't have enough to reach it
Story of my life.
Looks like a duel of the dinosaurs 🦕
Looks like the overflow problem is the creek not moving enough water away from the pipe. Is there a blockage downstream?
Only you would be doing that wild man lol with a bad ass storm coming down the pipe lol🖖💯
I always get excited when I see a pond in disrepair on this channel ...
3:18, everyone over 50 will relate to the following.
Why?
@@dennis2376 Hard to get it up.
That pond needs to be dredged and the shoreline needs to be lined with riprap to prevent further erosion.
Another small job sorted with the right gear and guys. Safe travels bro
Great job buddy and great video as always buddy 😎👊🏻👍🏻
Is it me or did the lifting chain get buried on that second piece of pipe?
I have a few things that need tending before it gets to NC too. Stay safe people.
We pray the storm is not as bad as forecasted. Blessings and stay safe.
