    Chris, you are hard on yourself. Some operators around here would take a week to do what you did in a day. You did a fine days work for the way it had to be done. As usual, you used your head for more than a hat rack and moved the ball down the field. IF the ground was harder there are faster ways to do things, but the "if" is the point. You had to deal with reality and made it work without creating a major mess. Kudos, man. Job well done.

    Good job Chris, I do heaps of clearing and dragging scrub and debris just the way you are doing it here with our 30 ton machine, sometimes its the only way to do it by the time you muck around with a skid steer and dump truck its quicker and more efficient to just use the excavator, plus your tracks leave a nice cleared track on the way back! Nice work.

    Silly question Chris here in the UK anything over a 4 ft pile of vegetation would create heat to help break it down but we don't have any where near the temperatures you do over there is there a risk of self combusting or will it break down to quick

    • @Torqu3d
      @Torqu3d 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Here in the US the vegetation usually gets burned on site in large piles or it gets hauled off to a dumping site or land fill. Not a common thing for piles to combust without a starter source.

    • @njonebale7889
      @njonebale7889 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      it’ll build heat as it decomposes but may or may not self combust, but maybe the right day, temperature, humidity level, barometric pressure and a few other factors, and the introduction of some hot lead…you may be able to roast some marshmallows!

    Hmm, You said that you have completely drained a pond with siphon because missed judging the amount of water flow. Why not put a reducer Tee on the supply end down in the lake, with say 2” pipe sticking up to the height of the water you want. Then, when the water level reaches that the siphon will now suck air break the vacuum, stop the water flow.
