No lie, I'm not a big Christian but I do appreciate the scripture reading at the ending, was actually really nice
Thank you! I really appreciate what you said. Your comment is why I do the message. To simply share my faith in an honest and sincere way that helps folks along in life…
Sam
Don’t worry. If we’re honest, none of us are “big” Christians this side of heaven. We’re just trying to do our best & show our gratitude for the sacrifice Jesus made for us.
@G.I.JeffsWorkbench Right, well said!

Having a STRONG foundation! Good message sir.... keep spreading the word my brother!

Came for the process of building a road and left with the process and foundation for salvation. Thanks for both.
Adam, thanks I appreciate that. That process and foundation for salvation will last for an eternity! 😀
God Bless,
Sam
Thanks for the warning.

Awesome video and message!
Keep up the good work
Thank you Ed! I appreciate you watching and commenting…

I am new to your channel and I enjoyed watching the build, as I have watching many other TH-cam videos... but was pleasantly surprised to hear the Gospel lesson at the end. I thought I'd leave a note of encouragement for you. Thank you for being an unashamed witness for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
Thank you Michael and welcome to the channel! I certainly appreciate the encouragement. It means a lot for other Christians to help me share the message by supporting the channel.
God Bless,
Sam
New subscriber, based on Todd’s (DigginLife) recommendation. Man, was he right. I’m glad I found your channel. A humble man, man of God, just trying to help folks like me improve my skills. Thank you!
Hey Jeff, welcome to the channel and I appreciate you giving me a shot! 😀 Glad you are enjoying the message…
God Bless,
Sam
What a surprise sharing the scriptures at the end ! 🙏 First time I have came across someone ending with sharing scriptures. 👌 Put a smile on my face to hear the Word .
You will be bless spreading God's word and He will do the rest touching some hearts with truth.
Enjoyed seeing all the steps in laying out a drive ! Thank You ! ! 👍
( Commit to the Lord whatever you do and He will establish your plans. . . .Proverbs 16:3 )
Thank you Ted, I appreciate that and especially the encouragement. I have a message on almost every one of the videos and it is amazing what the Lord is doing with these videos and the lives He is blessing through it.
Thanks and God Bless,
Sam
First time viewer I just came across this video just strolling and clicking and the way you put so much care in explaining what all you are doing and why was amazing. That mixed in with the scripture at the end made it amazing. Not many people have the courage to openly spread the word like this anymore and stay genuine to who they are. Will definitely be staying around 🙏🏼
Thank you Jacob and welcome to the channel! 😀 I appreciate the encouragement and glad you enjoyed the video and message. We do need to be bold in sharing the Gospel, it changes lives for sure…
God Bless,
Sam
Awesome! Not the road, the message. I like the road too though.
😀Thanks I appreciate that!
God Bless
You got a like from the great work. You got a subscription from the scripture. God bless you brother✝️ we all appreciate you showing your work and knowledge❤️
Thank You Janek and I sure appreciate you supporting the channel. Glad you are enjoying the message as well…
God Bless,
Sam
Gotta be nice to have the best employee anyone could ask for. Someone who loves getting up and go to work...with daddy. Thanks Tristar.
Thanks and he is a great buddy to have around…
Sam
I really like the stright forward and caring way you share the word of God. Your video's are very helpful, thank you.
Hey I appreciate that! I’m glad you enjoy the videos and especially the message. So, thank you for the encouragement and supporting the channel…
God Bless,
Sam
Great message sam. May the Lord continue to bless you and keep you.
Thank you and glad you enjoyed the message!
God Bless
God Bless you, Sir. I appreciate the Lords message at the end. I stumbled across the channel because I’m going to attempt to build my own driveway here in Montana. Wish you were closer brother. I pray your channel grows
Thank you Johnny, and welcome to the channel. I learned a lot watching TH-cam as well. And actually still learning from guys that do some good work…
God Bless and I appreciate the prayers…
Sam
you could do with a dozer blade and a vib compactor for the skid steer track loader. a little easier on the back. or one of those 2D, 3D GPS box or blade grader thingies. 😅
one other thing, it's nice having the the Lord working with you everyday when you goto work. I mean it just feels good doesn't it. it makes for a peaceful day. a man couldn't ask for better company, I tell you. well, it was just on my mind to say.
Yes, it is an awesome thing to know the Lord is with you!
A grade control system for the skid steer would be super nice to have for sure.
God Bless
Message hit home. Glad you have those that people can find applicable and bring more people close to our savior
Thanks, glad it was a blessing and I appreciate you sharing that!
God Bless,
Sam
Great best friend you have with you. Knows his or her way around the workplace. 🐕
Ole Diesel is a good one! He definitely likes to go to work with me.
Thanks for watching and commenting…
Sam
God bless you, and thank you for the reminder message at the end. 🙂👍🇮🇪
Thank you Bob and glad you enjoyed the message!
God Bless,
Sam
One thing I have learned from watching videos like these.......it makes you think it is easy to do it....until you do it....That is a bit of skill to be efficient and get the job done. Nice video.
Thanks Marty, I appreciate that. Definitely takes a lot of practice to figure it out…
Nice work, great scripture. Love your videos
Thank you Mike! 😀
Awesome job. My only advise to anyone building a basement, is to use schedule 40 drain pipe around your basement perimeter .. this ribbed pipe tends to hold water and is a little on the flimsy side!
That is right, schedule 40 is a better option…
Thanks,
Sam
Good message
Thank you Cecil…😀
God Bless,
Sam
Awesome video with a great surprise at the end. God bless you!
Thank you David, I appreciate that!Glad you enjoyed the message…
God Bless,

ahh found it -- the pad for the Superior precast basement walls! Brilliant idea! "mowing the grass" as the path for the driveway cut, grade and rock!
Good deal…
Very impressed with your videos.
I must admit I was falling farther from our Lord.
I need to climb back up.
Thank you Brody! I appreciate what you said about the videos . We all, as Christian’s, have times where we drift away but the Lord is ALWAYS there to welcome us back into that relationship with Him!
Keep climbing!!!
God Bless,
Sam
😂😂 the dog looked up right as the pipe clicked in
Hey Jonathan, Ole Diesel is a good one. Big personality and lots of energy.
Thanks,
Sam
Thank you for the message! Keep spreading the Gospel!!
Thank you Curtis, I appreciate that!

God bless you brother contractor! I came across your video and have to honestly say I subscribed when you started reading scripture. Thank you!
Hey thanks for that and welcome to the channel! I appreciate you subscribing and glad you enjoyed the message…

Hey, all the work is very nice, and the way it was developed was incredible, but I wanted to thank you for taking a moment for our Lord Jesus Christ, God bless you and your entire family, with health and work. 🤝🙏
Thank you Felipe, I really appreciate that! 😀 Glad you enjoyed the message.

Hi Sam , Awesome Job on foundation. In all my years of Building Homes we never used this system. Things are Definitely Changing on the Building world. Very nice Job on the Content and editing!! Nice Work My Friend 👍🏻
I appreciate the Message , It is Always Spot on ! Have a Great Week Boss !!
Thanks Evert! 😀
I agree, I haven’t seen this kind of building either but I think Inwoyod use it if building another house for us.
If a shovel is a "manual backhoe ", then a rake is a"manual dozer". 😳😁. Another great video.
Nate that is right! And I don’t like a manual dozer either…😀
Thanks…
Amen for Matthew 7. Building on a solid foundation. 🙌🏾
Thanks, I appreciate that!
God Bless
Good job buddy we just did a 1700ft drive and 500ft driveway toped everything with asphalt grindings
Thanks Eric, I appreciate that! 😀y’all had your hands full on the 1700’ drive that’s a big one….
Ya took a week and about 700tons of material
@@Joneseliteexcavating wow, that’s a lot of materials. 😳
Ya a lot of tri axle dumps couldn't get any bigger trucks up it the corners were too tight unfortunately
Keep reading the word God Bless!
Thanks and I appreciate the encouragement…
God Bless,
Sam
Great work and thank you very much for the Christian message
Thank you I appreciate that!😀
God Bless
Thank you brother👍
Thanks John, I appreciate you supporting the channel…
Sam
Good word, brother! I'm a believer.
Thank you and glad to hear that!
God Bless,
Sam
Thanks for another message! I agree, repentance from your sins and trusting in Christ is the most important decision in your life! Also you did an amazing job with that driveway and the foundation. Thanks....
Thank you, I appreciate that. 😀
God Bless…
This video was so satisfying to watch thank you keep them coming love your work
Thank you and I sure appreciate you watching and supporting the channel…
Sam
I Just discovered your channel, this is the first video I watched and I am hooked! Thank you for sharing scripture at the end! Keep up the great work!
Thank you and welcome to the channel! Glad you enjoyed the message. There are lots of messages to check out. Almost all of the videos have one…
God Bless,
Sam
God bless you amen
Thank you Alfred!
God Bless,
Sam
You need a compactor attachment for the skid steer. They make some even with a scraper blade on the front of the skid steer compactor, that way you can grade and compact without changing attachments..
I did try one out a couple years ago. Would be a great attachment but was very expensive.
OK you have to tell me how you can do the video so perfectly while working! I mean --- For the life of me .... I cannot figure out how you run a drone while driving the dump truck and spreading gravel! Pure talent! (OH WAIT!! I figured it out!! The Dog "Diesel" runs the cameras! He is always looking at it taking screen shots of himself! LOL)
Hey Richard,
Yup, that is my secret, I have trained diesel to run the cameras!😀🤣😂 That would be nice. Diesel is definitely a camera hog. He gets his picture made as often as he can…🤣
I open my heart to you Jesus. Come in to my heart. Ty
Derrick,
Jesus certainly will do that! Did you just get saved and give your life to the Lord?
Thank you for the message brother.
Thanks and I appreciate you supporting the channel…😀
God Bless
AWESOME AWESOME VIDEO AND MESSAGE SAMMY 👍👍THANKS FOR SHARING AND GOD BLESS YOU 🙌
Thanks Jon I appreciate that!
God Bless
Nice work Sam and great message!
Thanks Grant! 😀
Mr. Tristar, I enjoy your videos yos. But I've seen something that might have been wrong. The bale of the pipe should have been on the high side Of the fall. Can't wait for the next one.
It's true
Thanks and I appreciate you watching. The bale should go on the high side but in this situation where there is very little if any water going through its not a problem on this one.
Thanks Sam
Right, thanks for watching!
Love it my son work for a company that does superior walls I’m in process of purchasing land and I will be doing the same system bless you and looking forward for the next video
Thanks! I believe it is a great basement system. Hope all goes well with your land purchase and house build…
Not gonna lie. I like the digging content, but the reading at the end caused me to subscribe! Much appreciated to the entire video, and I look forward to more.
Hey John, I appreciate that and welcome to the channel. Thanks for subscribing and supporting the channel…
God Bless,
Sam
Amen Amen nice work and wonderful Word!! Thankyou for sharing God's Word!! God Bless!! 🙌🙌
Thank you JB!
God Bless,

Hey brother , use that grease to lube the seal . It'll keep it from rolling when you home it up .
Yup, I should do that more than I do…
Thanks
Another great video and message mate. Thanks again
Thanks I appreciate that!
God Bless…
Nice work and have a blessed week ahead!
Thank you Bryan and I hope you have a blessed week as well…
@@tristardiggin You are welcome!
Great Video Sam!! Man behind the scenes told me you came into Derby for the DOT class. I apologize i had Aaron tied up with a Tube Leak. Hopefully next time you come in he wont be tied up. Hope you are doing well.
Hey Matt, I appreciate that. It was cool to come into Derby and hangout for a couple days and meet up with Aaron and Mike. Man Behind The Scenes is a good one for sure. 👍
Thanks…
Still toward the beginning of the video… Wanted to give you a tip about corrugated drain pipe. ALWAYS tape your joints. They can easily come apart, even after installation.
Thanks!
Great video. Appreciate the message at the end of you videos. I also just bought some land in Rickman TN and enjoyed seeing how you cut driveway and culvert. 👍
Hey JB I appreciate that! Hope things go well with your property in Rickman…
God Bless,
Sam
Great video I just want to say thanks for showing us how the preformed walls turned out for the house. Thanks for taking time to make these videos.
Thanks James! Those preformed walls are pretty interesting on how they go in. I wasn’t to sure about them when they talked about how they were installed. But now I see it’s a great system for sure…
Thanks…
Brother your bucket has teeth used the back edge to grade in reverse and if you're pack down use the back edge driving forward with the bucket curled up. I hate to be negative but you had me yelling at the screen lol otherwise awesome project
Thanks Dave. I’ve done it that way but just prefer using the bucket edge. Appreciate the info though…
GOD BLISS SIR
Thanks Rajvinder, I appreciate that!
God Bless,
Sam
So you know knuckle head DP. I watch his channel religiously. Don't tell him that though. His head is already size 9. I give him a hard time on comments on his channel just to get him riled up. It's so easy. Enough about DP. I'm new to your channel but I like your videos. I love the messages and how you link it to the job you are on at the time.
Yeah, ole DP is a pretty good feller. Hey, welcome to the channel and I appreciate you watching and commenting to support it. Glad you are enjoying the message as well…
God Bless,
Sam
Thank you for not being afraid of sharing the gospel, I’m truly challenged by that.
Hey Buzz, I appreciate that! Share the message where ever you go…
God Bless,
Sam
Nice touch at the end.
Thanks Carson, I appreciate that!😀
No footing under concrete walls with a house on top? That's something new.👍
Yup, definitely new to me too!
Thanks😀
Congratulations to the winners. I’m loving the asphalt millings and will look forward to seeing how they work out for you.
Thanks 👍
haha im glad im the not only one forgetting the on switch to my predator compactor.... Those things start with one damn pull every time!
Yup, I sure did forget. Mine starts easy too…
Thanks,
Sam
Great video and message!
Thank you Jon!😀
I did not expect that at the end of this video that the WORD would be preached. I am so happy to see that the message still gets it's rightfull place even though most of these videos are just to make money off it....(dont get me wrong...i dnt say its a bad thing) but preaching the Gospel while making videos is very cool. I love the word that came across. It hit home🙌🏼🙏🏻 from the 100+ channels i am subscribing to this chanell and The landark projects are the only 2 channels that makes reference to God, Jesus and the Bible. Amen to that🙏🏻
Thank you Neville, I appreciate you subscribing and watching to help the channel grow. TH-cam is a huge world wide platform. It is an excellent opportunity to share the Gospel.
God Bless,
Sam
@@tristardiggin it is only a pleasure. This is the first video to watch but i would certainly watch all your other videos. I love the variety. And 100% yes to a platform such as this to get the Word out there. God bless you and your family and every project you put your hand onto
This is no joke I been doing a lot better in my life and been trying to go to church when I’m home with my wife and kids since I’m an over the road truck driver and I’ve had a rough past and there’s other videos I would only watch a couple minutes of and exit out until I found yours and I feel like something drew me to watch pretty much every minute of your video and at the end you had the Bible in your hand and started reading and it sent chills through me like god wanted me to listen to your message thank you and god bless
Brandon that is awesome! I’m very glad the video has been a blessing. And especially glad to hear you and your family are going to Church together. Thank you for sharing that about the video and the message. It definitely is an encouraging thing to hear stories like this…😀
God Bless,
Sam
@@brandonjenkins1794 amen🙏🏻
This is how I tailgate first I get about 30’ away from where I want to start then raise my bed and go when I get to my starting point pop my gate staying at the same rpms until I’m empty. This way I don’t have a pile at starting point. Good luck
Thanks Patrick I will give that a try…
Sam
Looks great Sam! If you haven't tried one of those 36" aluminum landscape rakes they work great for leveling with less effort in my opinion think would of worked slick on that small gravel.
I have been wondering about one of those rakes. I definitely need to try one out.
Thanks
Landscape Rakes definitely work best for grading! Concrete (Come Along) Rakes are better for moving lots of material.
Thanks,I do need to get one…
Great message Sam I enjoyed it! The pad and drive turned out great. You seem to always have jobs that require shoveling and raking involved.😂 You could've used the 313 for the driveway if you would've had a 60 inch tilt bucket for it. SmithWorx 313 looks good with the tilt bucket on it. I'm sure he knows where you can get one at a good price. 🤣 Be Safe Out There and GOD BLESS
Thanks Jim I appreciate that! I know what you are saying about the rake and shovel 😳.
I saw Lindsey’s 60” bucket and I really like it. Probably will have to get one of those. 😀
God Bless
Subscribed. Yep… the GoPro always heats up quick in the sun. Nice job on the work and the video!
Thanks I appreciated that and welcome to the channel. The GoPro records great video but they definitely have their issues…
Sam
The quickest reply ever 😮😮😅😅😅😅
😀I try to get them quickly! 🤣
You hit it on the nail with me. Ive basically quit doing anything for the lord anymore. I need to get back on track and get to a good foundation again. It will be hard i know but im gonna keep trying
I hope you get things back on track too.
@tristardiggin yeah it's just hard to do !!but these messages really help me a lot
Great bible teaching!! Nice video!!
Thank you Mr Sonny!😀
Love all your videos, especially the message
Thank you Rex, I appreciate that!
God Bless,
Sam
The Lord is proud of you you do good work keep it up keep it up
Thank you Gary!
God Bless,
Sam
Thank you
Thank you as well!
Over here in Australia we use a 4 in 1 bucket on our possie track machines & it spreads rock like a grader
That’s cool to know folks in Australia watch the channel! 😀
Those 4in1 buckets are handy to have for sure.
Thanks,
Sam
Bro is definitely self taught
Thanks for watching and commenting…
I would have to guess that this job was a little less stressful than the pond job?😮
Nice work once again. Thank you!
Thanks Brian! And you are right it was a little less stressful than moving massive amounts of dirt. But I definitely enjoyed the pond job too.
Sam
Amen Brother
Hey thanks, I appreciate that!😀
God Bless,
Sam
By far one of my favorite channels!
Thanks! And I appreciate you watching and supporting the channel…😀
I live in another country. here we make a narrow trench that the drainage pipe lies below so that the top layer of soil stays dry and there is less space for the water before it starts to run out into the drainage pipe. we also have fiber cloth against soil so that soil does not enter the drainage pipe and stones
That is a good idea to make ditch lower than the subgrade. Adding the fabric is good idea as well. Food for thought, thanks…😀
Sam
nice job!! love the message!!
Thanks I appreciate that! Glad you enjoyed the message too…
God Bless,
Sam
Good work !
- 15:23 to 15:26 is the sound of a Caterpillar dumper ? 😎
- Good technique to "hold" the pipeline with the blade at 30:18 !
- 32:12 Diesel watches and directs your work ! 🤣
Thanks Nicolas! 😎
2 man job, run the Greybar level ahead of the Skidsteer, lot less raking,
Thanks Thomas! A lot less raking sounds good to me…😀
@tristardiggin here's a few more tips, if the Basement has a porch Backfill with a mini ex fill both sides with equal amounts of dirt, and don't Backfill house until it's built 😉
Clean rock doesn’t hardly settled at all. This is a kewl video to settle in for. Bout to eat some sushi and watch some tristar diggin!!
Mmmm! Sushi 🍣 sounds GOOD.
Enjoy the show…😀
@@tristardiggin like that fancy dump truck drivin too!
@@tristardiggin I’ve been hauling out of the quarry with a truck bout same size as yours. They load me with a cat 980m I think. They load me with a corner scoop. Crazy how big it is.
@poorfarm-nn6ii yup, this quarry has a really big one too. They only use it when the regular one is down.
@@tristardigginI like to scrape the dumptruck bed out with the mini ex. Or send one of the newbies to shovel it out lol.
👍🏼
Thanks John! 😀
You should have video’d the setting of walls?
Yeah, I wanted to but I was out of town when they set them…
Thanks,
Sam
love that message brother
Thanks, I appreciate that…😀
Its funny how different areas call the gravel products different names. I guess it depends on who's running the quarry?
I hope you were able to film the crane setting the concrete panels, that would be interesting to watch.
Nice message. It reminds me of the old hymn we sing sometimes, On Christ the Solid Rock I stand. My favorite verse is:
When He shall come with trumpet sound
Oh, may I then in Him be found
Dressed in His righteousness alone
Faultless to stand before the throne
On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
Right, rock is called all kinds of different names. This 2” rock is commonly called septic rock too.
I didn’t get to film the walls. They did that while I was at the Utility Expo in Kentucky.
Glad you enjoyed the message. I Stand on the solid rock as well!
God Bless…
Thanks for sharing! Watched, Liked, Shared, Subscribed, Commented... grear commentary on this big project... it's been a little time sir...
Thanks Aaron! I thought you might like the driveway video. Glad you enjoyed the message too.

AMEN!!!
Thanks Allen!😀

It would really help to set a couple blue tops so you don’t have to be getting off the machine so often “ leave the blue tops an inch high por your compaction 😊
Those might be handy. Haven’t used them before.
Thanks,
Sam
Wish I was moving closer to you! Definitely would want to talk about getting on with you and help grow your business! We’re moving up into Morristown area!
Yup, I’m familiar with Morristown. About 3 or so hours from where I am.
