So I think this is the second time I have seen you on this property, all I can say is I can see why you are called for these big jobs. You do the job well, efficiently and I love the way you leave a job, CLEAN. SHOWS YOUR WORK ETHIC. Great job
First impressions are everything. Do a great job and you assure yourself of callbacks. You also develop a rapport with the customer, and he or she will recommend you to others. I think a large part of Andrew’s genius is that he instinctively understands these things. And this is, I think, how he grew his business. He probably spends next to nothing on advertising. For instance, his Ford dump truck has his name and profession on the door, but no phone number for interested parties to call. Were I him, I’d add the number. My bosses always picked up small, easy jobs (paving driveways) from people seeing the phone number. It costs little, can return a lot and is a mark of pride.
It should be boring......but it isn't really....why? 'cos if you ask most men who were brought up before videos and playstations, diggers were our favourite toys.
Grown up toys ! I own a small John Deer lawn tractor, I pay a ride sometimes to young kids around my house. Oh the smiles, the bright eyes I get ! Every kid loves a " track-a-thor" ride !
I came across your vids when u first started and now I have seen every one ..ive even gotten my wife watching lol ..I have a small construction business and do the same things as you so nothing here is new to me but I love watching your attention to the details you do great work and go beyond what a lot of people would and I appreciate that...its great that you take the time to make your vids hope you inspire other people to put pride into their work as u do ..keep it up thanks
Hey Andrew I noticed your machine has what sounds like a hydraulic whine, I have an ex150 that did the same. In the hydraulic tank there is a mesh filter that clogs up, reach in there with your hand a pull it out, it has a handle on it you can grab. mine was dirty, after I cleaned it the machine got quiet and had so much more power.
AstronomyToday Really had a Lincoln Town Car with a blocked vacuum mesh filter once; the performance difference was astounding... went out and whipt 2 Honda’s arses.
absolutely agree, i wanted to say this on other videos where the heck are the trolls???? there's nobody....everybody is civilized damn, where are we? this is not earth....there's no way we could ALL be this civilized i think andrew is a wizard and he has us all under a spell...............there's no other explanation :)))
@@ovidyus - I know right. I think that we're all in agreement that Andrew & his work ethics, brilliant inventive/creative mind, brings out the best in all of us. Not much to criticize with this young man that's for sure.
Hey Andrew, Nice Job and nice video! I seen people using a car hood as a skid to pull a log out of the woods. Provides the log from getting caught up. Might protect the ground too. Just as an idea. Looking forward to the next video
I always thought that hay keeps the wind from blowing grass seed away, hides the seed from birds and other animals that will eat it, and keeps the seed in place during rain. I also thought It added nutrients to the soil as it breaks down.
It's amazing how many people don't know the main purpose of hay or straw or mushroom manure (in my neck of the woods), including professional landscapers. It's to prevent the soil from drying out too quickly so the grass seed has a better chance of surviving. And there's a BIG difference between hay and straw. There are places where you would want to use one over the other. Again, most people couldn't tell you the difference between a straw or hay bale. You don't have to use a mulch if you keep your soil well watered.
AND in steeper slope areas, straw mulch is used for erosion control. The rains falling energy is expended on the straw, not breaking up the soil beneath. Odds are against grass seed germination without a covering of some kind, as per Anton above ^^^^^
Logistics. Andrew, how do you refuel (also hydraulic fluids, etc.) whilst you are on the job away from your castle? I've seen 5 gal. jerry cans, but it seems too little for the hours you put in. Thanks for your time and trouble filming for us to follow your adventures!
Andrew - Your camera angles, production and editing are REALLY getting very good. How many cameras are you setting up at a time now? For a shot? I saw someone else comment that you are taking what could be mundane projects and turning them into interesting, 1/2 hour videos. Very true! Well done! Now if you could just get some hot chicks in bikinis, with machine guns in there, your views, likes and subs would go thru the roof!! Another job well done! 👌
Great job 👍. It’s always amazing at all the safety concerns and comments. People look at these videos with the wrong mentality. Rather than seeing A guy getting it done and making a living doing things they can’t they have to make comments based on there own lack of skills.
only thing I saw that could get him in trouble is not having a chain around the arm of the excavator. Here its a $300 fine if it doesn't cause property damage or $1000 if it does. Id rather spend the $70 on a chain and binder than pay more money cause of something stupid
Brian Wymer’s Handy Man Service And the lesson is know what ur talking about before u make a fool of yourself and stick ur foot in ur mouth , tell em Brian 😉😂😂
Amen Brian. He constantly has me wanting to preach pre-caution however he works just like my brother (super do'er also) does so I just shut my mouth and watch shit get done!
If you watch the video about how he got started I think I understand now why everything kept breaking down on him....he works the heck out of everything he owns! But he gets the job done.
Yeah this dude has mad skills on his equipment. I don’t operate for a living but I occasionally rent equipment to do work around my homestead. Most of the technique I use while operating comes from watching Andrew.
Another good job, Andrew. Congratulations. His skill with the excavator was again demonstrated. I noticed that your pickup truck was much needed in this job, it pulled a lot of weight. Good job.
Was that really him? I thought it was just random footage that his cams picked up of the homeowners kid or a neighboring kid. Didn't think AC had a scooter....
That driveway was like a mile long, I didn't want to go in there with the truck trailer so I drove the machine in, and drove the scooter back out to the truck.
It WAS you !! Well, not sure whether to say sorry or not, but I'll admit that I laughed a bit at it, too.... just honestly thought it was someone else. Might be time to get my eyes checked for glasses...
Yeah that was awesome. Then I was thinking about the trouble Andrew went to to set up the tripod, ride by on the scooter, then come back and get the camera. Your camera work is stellar, Andrew!
They didn't move anything out of the way. They may be either lazy,abusive,wealthy or disable. Hey! maybe all of the above (scratch disable,please). Good eye Stephen.
Don't forget not only can he accomplish everything he sets out to do BUT he dose it by his self. Yes we worry about him but we trust his ability and common sense. Just keep doing what you doing Andrew.
Pro Tip: Use a 4' straight log for grading. Grab onto the log using your thumb and use the log as a grader blade. It makes quick work of grading and leaves a smooth finish.
But you get your log dirty. No one wants a dirty log. Lol I drag the blade backwards and track it in a lil. The track marks help hold the seed in from washing away. Another sweet job Andrew.
We do the same thing with a 'mop pole'.. a 6 inch piece of steel pipe, 8 to 10 ft long, with a slot cut out for the bucket teeth and a piece of angle iron welded on for the tongue to grab.. That way, you get more surface area to work with.. Works great for grading and smoothing all types of material..
Andrew i would give maybe a word of caution. throw a chain on the bucket before you trailer excavators . the hydros have the ability to ratchet up on you while in transit . this is how a lot of bridges end up getting hit by excavators ( you check your height before you leave and your good but 15 miles down the road your a foot taller since the hydros decided ratcheted up on you) the code number is 393.130 .(i work a little with bridges the cost of fixing a damaged beam is extravagant)
Another great video. Andrew I am one your "newbie" fans. What a brilliant guy you are. While other vlogers scramble for content you are going about your business, but taking the time to set every shot, to be action packed...moving...or something interesting. You enhance your footage even more with overall views of the job sight with drone footage to give the viewer a better overall prospective of the sight. Combining that with excellent editing you come out with a always fascinating perspective of what would otherwise be common mundane activities. If you most always work solo, you must spend a lot of time setting up camera shots. The route-en viewer has no idea hoe much time and effort goes into your vlogs. This is just another example of a masterful job well done. No wonder your channel is growing by leaps and bounds. Well done Andrew.....well done.
Still too many trees too close to house for my taste. They don't seem to have very large or deep roots so any coulf fall in good wind. Neat job and very tidy finishing up.
Agreed about your camera work. Makes it interesting pulling in more than one camera getting different angles. Notice U don't do it all the time undoubtedly because of the degree of planing an extra hands you may use. Which leads to the drone work,...Question: when you pull away from the quarry with your full load who's driving the truck and who's flying the bird? Figured it could be as easy as someone riding shotgun And flying the drone. Still and all it's quite a trick and I think it's cool that you don't explain away all your exceptional movie making skills. Keeps us guessing and appreciating all the time, effort, & passion U put into sharing what you obviously love to do. Or is it play with...? Mahalo PS: Am a veteran landscaper from Oahu 30 years now. Growing up in Northern California am fascinated with you being in upstate NY and staying so busy....! Am really missing the mountains so enjoy watching your videos...
jospi2 Trees only root as deep as needed for water and this area appears to be fairly wet with the stream right there. Some trees are very shallow rooted by nature but trees like these hardwoods can go deeper to reach water.
I thought the same. I showed the video of the triple tree with very shallow roots to my wife. I was surprised at how flat the ground was under the roots. Makes you wonder how the trees dont just fall over as it seems there is not a lot holding them in place. I know the roots go out further, and Andrew had cut/ dug through some on one side, but they do get thinner towards the tips.
@@mattsez2879 If it don't blow the transmission out first. Yeah I know it don't matter what brand truck you buy they all have problems to be fair. I've had good luck with 3 fords pre 2000 and a GM, I run a superduty 7.3 F250 and a 97 GM 1500 z71 off road still. I've never owned a Dodge but driven them for company's, or heard from my friends about their problems. They never impressed me enough to own one. I'm looking to upgrade this coming year but don't know what to buy this time.
Hi from Moscow. It is signed on your canal and I have pressed a hand bell. I watch with pleasure your videos and where brought trunks of the cut trees, to firewood or to a power-saw bench? Didn't see at you the grinder of trunks and branches, you have it?
The hay does three things: 1) retains a moist environment to help the seeds germinate, 2) prevents seeds from blowing away, and 3) prevents birds from eating the seeds (they're like a bird delicacy). Unfortunately, the hay also brings non-indiginous weeds, and takes a while to break down. They have really great seed products now that are coated for moisture retention without the weed risks. Birds, however, may always be a problem. They're crafty.
Land Home & Lawn Services I did a video titled how I got started in excavation which answers that question really well. First piece was a John Deere 1010 dozer that I bought because I need it
I try to watch at least one or two of Andrews video's every day, they are all awesome and sometimes I get my questions answered before asking LOL / I hope I never run out of Andrew vids
Man, most of the people making negative comments must live in the city, and buy their pre-cut wood from HD, have their cute little box trailer, towed behind their cute little SUV. This is called getting done. Look at the construction of Alaska pipeline and how it was done, have the 27K people working there were high or drunk half the time. Not to say you shouldn't take care, but the guy can move a trailer and picnic table with and excavator, I think he has a handle on things.
I hate HD wood. It's usually slash grade, meaning full of knotholes, chunks missing, rarely do you get a clean board unless you search and search for them.
love your vidios, muck boots are nice, cutting wood i pull the pants over them, chips in the socks! that trailer is a best, sergel dratchev should borrow it, ha ha, another u tuber i watch. log tongs are great to have. i beat you could fold a napkin with the machines. last i hope you get a ton of work so we can watch you ever day for a long time, thanks you andrew.
Until I saw him move it I was going to compare the owner here with the Range Rover guy! The horrible job he took getting all those logs out of the ditch. I hope he made $5k minimum!
The Arkle Looks like the trees have outgrown the height of that balcony but the drone footage shows it is spectacular. Perhaps future tree removals for Andrew to regain that view.
Looks like a widow's walk, or some call them a widow's watch when it's enclosed. From some old folklore that the wives of sailors would anxiously await their husbands' arrival home, they would watch from the highest point at home overlooking the harbor or sea for their husband's ship to return to port. And if it never came back (there was a lot of ships lost in the early days), the wives would becomes widows.
I'd say he did it to enhance the video knowing he would likely get stuck. people like to see a certain level of stuff going wrong. it makes the video more entertaining.
@daveknowshow.... well... yeah, it does make the video "more entertaining", but it could come at the cost of him damaging his own equipment, or God forbid, something worse. I can't speak for everyone, but I'd rather see things go relatively normal (if there is such a thing as normal), than see his equipment getting busted, torn up, jacked up, flattened down... I think this guy works hard enough at keeping his equipment working. What we see in the videos is what it is, he doesn't seem to pull any punches or hide his mistakes. And in the end, he's a human being. He wasn't born knowing everything there is to know. I just think he sticks his neck out a bit every now and then, and has incredibly good luck at pulling off some off the moves, doing the jobs that have to be done. I wish him well, but I also enjoy that he shares his repair ventures and adventures with us. This guy has balls, not only on his jobs, but in the projects he takes on for his own personal benefit, too. He's a happy-go-lucky man, and we're all fortunate to be able to follow along with him. His sense of humor (that's what I call it) adds brilliantly to the content. Whether he does things while working to enhance his videos, I can't really say one way or the other, but either way, his videos are addictive. Haven't yet seen one that I felt wasn't worth my time to watch.
Sometimes you can learn by watching Andrew do his thing and make decisions about what to do differently. However I don't see the need to scold Andrew rather than just enjoy the show.
Joseph Fields Guilt trips have no effect on me, so stop acting like a big pussy, Andrew can handle it, besides i know what fuck im talking about, ive been in the business over 45 years ...so go cry to your mommy, boy !!!
I really like how you repair the areas that are damaged, it shows a lot of care and pride in your work. And I can tell you enjoy doing good work. keep it up buddy, I watch all your videos.
37:03 i would have took those 3 also, but you know me... i hate any tree close to the house, if its within 200ft take it down !!! it saves you allot of trouble, and sooner or later you'll have to deal with them anyways so might as well... chop-chop 'm up !!! :D
Any time there's an interruption of service (i.e shutting the gas off at the tank) a leak check is "required" before service is reinstated "tank turned back on." Other than that, keep up the good work!
Andrew The get away SCOOTER WAS GREAT. IF I WAS DRINKING A beer!!!!!!!!!!! WHILE I WAS WATCHING THE GET AWAY RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!! I would have drop the beer ...... BECAUSE I WAS LOLOLOLOLOL TO MUCH. GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO THINK ITS TIME TO GET A NEW USED TRAILER.?????????? Also think it's time to step up to dual rear wheel truck unity body type. Just going to throw this out there...... Bucket trucks are cheap these days. I think you should buy one,,,,,, for all the tree work and every thing else you do......But step up to the plate. Get a transport plate. So you go down the road with Pettbone and the bucket truck with that plate,,, It's just used from one point to another point that's it,,,, The plate is not to be used to drive around in two or three vehicles.. Saw one guy dong that,,,,,,,,,,,, keep up the great work. Take care. Junkmando
I know you know how to run your equipment, but leaving that air-stream trailer parked so close to felling trees was simply stupid. You do good work, but why risk such an easy accident?
Nice work Andrew! Your work is impeccable! 🍁🍂🍃🌲 can't wait to see the next videos, are you going to do any videos redoing pond's or anything like that.
I just love that Ford dump truck so much. I think it's cuz despite all the wear and tear, it just gets it done. Kinda looks badass too.
agree, but im waiting for it to get stuck also, almost allways happens and gets dealt with. great stuff.
Agree, but I’m waiting for it to get stuck also, almost always happens and gets dealt with. Great stuff.

I love his obligatory "I'm all finished up here. Well, ON TO THE NEXT JOB", too.
I agree with everything you said but the "big job".. it's taking down a couple of trees :)
First impressions are everything. Do a great job and you assure yourself of callbacks. You also develop a rapport with the customer, and he or she will recommend you to others.

Andrew Camarata has just pushed down the oak trees away from the house, using a 1995 Hitachi EX100 excavator.

No matter what you charge, you definitely earned it! You don’t see many people these days that work as hard as you do Andrew, bless you my friend!
Anyone else binge watching Andrew's videos ?

10 to 15 gallons in those small machine will last over a day at full rpm. 12 hour shift in my big 986 loader running hard only burns under 70 gal.
I must say, you're really using your machines and your equipment to their maximum capacity..... And then some! lol
And then some lol
That's not difficult of a task for that size excavator at all.
@@verteup Funny enough, the excavator was the only thing I wasn't talking about! lol
Sometimes I wonder if he is angry with them.
Ha ha ha>>> I love the "Bigger Hammer" approach. Truck stuck? Pull it with the Excavator. ;)
Andrews own recovery machine. lol. He handles his machines so well. :)
That had me cracking up! that's the same approach my father taught me. Soon as I saw the truck spinning tires, i thought, "this is gonna; get good!"

All logs skid better if you can get the leading edge up off the ground.. thus not plowing dirt in front of the log either.. great job..cleaning ip .
Have you ever thought about getting yourself a “logging arch“? It seems like you do enough of this type of work to justify getting one.
I keep finding myself up watching your videos until 1-2 and 3 in the morning.
Great work, you are giving me so many ideas for projects.
Thanks Andrew.
Great job 👍. It’s always amazing at all the safety concerns and comments. People look at these videos with the wrong mentality. Rather than seeing A guy getting it done and making a living doing things they can’t they have to make comments based on there own lack of skills.
I get your point and agree... I'm just curious about any special insurance he has to get??
Insurance? That would cut into the profit margin. It's better to just go with it.... as Andrew would say
only thing I saw that could get him in trouble is not having a chain around the arm of the excavator. Here its a $300 fine if it doesn't cause property damage or $1000 if it does. Id rather spend the $70 on a chain and binder than pay more money cause of something stupid

Still and all it's quite a trick and I think it's cool that you don't explain away all your exceptional movie making skills. Keeps us guessing and appreciating all the time, effort, & passion U put into sharing what you obviously love to do. Or is it play with...?

PS: Am a veteran landscaper from Oahu 30 years now. Growing up in Northern California am fascinated with you being in upstate NY and staying so busy....! Am really missing the mountains so enjoy watching your videos...
Interesting to see that these trees have such shallow roots. Is it because of the ground?
jospi2
Trees only root as deep as needed for water and this area appears to be fairly wet with the stream right there.
Some trees are very shallow rooted by nature but trees like these hardwoods can go deeper to reach water.
I thought the same. I showed the video of the triple tree with very shallow roots to my wife. I was surprised at how flat the ground was under the roots. Makes you wonder how the trees dont just fall over as it seems there is not a lot holding them in place. I know the roots go out further, and Andrew had cut/ dug through some on one side, but they do get thinner towards the tips.
I think it was a big rock under that tree.
Bed rock under the tree.
I was afraid you are going to tear that truck in half its not the most structurally strong thing in this world
When he started the business he had a regular cab short box Dodge truck LOL
its a dodge......will pull a ford in half
@@mattsez2879 If it don't blow the transmission out first. Yeah I know it don't matter what brand truck you buy they all have problems to be fair. I've had good luck with 3 fords pre 2000 and a GM, I run a superduty 7.3 F250 and a 97 GM 1500 z71 off road still. I've never owned a Dodge but driven them for company's, or heard from my friends about their problems. They never impressed me enough to own one. I'm looking to upgrade this coming year but don't know what to buy this time.
@@super6954 i ment the frame....yes the trans will fall out of a dodge at 5000 miles
Sooo are we just not gonna talk about that scooter at 1:43?
Lol. Probably something made.
He has a video of getting that one and others running after sitting for a long time !
Nice to see a job where the Hitachi was used.
Alan Hutchins That trailer though lol
He def gets his moneys worth out of it.
I bet if that dodge could talk we could get some good stories lol
Man i laughed so hard at this
Especially the story about how the car stereo was installed :)
If that Dodge could talk it would make you cry.
POOR TRUCK lol
I thought he was going to bury it in the woods next to the old stumps.
Nice job ,thx for sharing 💕💕❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💕💕💕❤️
Hi from Moscow. It is signed on your canal and I have pressed a hand bell. I watch with pleasure your videos and where brought trunks of the cut trees, to firewood or to a power-saw bench? Didn't see at you the grinder of trunks and branches, you have it?
Nice job man! Keep up the hard work
The hay does three things: 1) retains a moist environment to help the seeds germinate, 2) prevents seeds from blowing away, and 3) prevents birds from eating the seeds (they're like a bird delicacy). Unfortunately, the hay also brings non-indiginous weeds, and takes a while to break down. They have really great seed products now that are coated for moisture retention without the weed risks. Birds, however, may always be a problem. They're crafty.
It’s amazing how delicate and precise he can be when he’s filling in the holes! Love it
That’s what she said.
I think you should have gone for president you would get my vote
That makes a safe job out of an unsafe tree falls.
Nice job Andrew. Just received your T-shirt this past week, thanks for that quick delivery. 👍👍👍👍
You're welcome
What was your first piece of equipment and what first inspired you to get into your line of work? Thanks for the reply and video.
Land Home & Lawn Services I did a video titled how I got started in excavation which answers that question really well. First piece was a John Deere 1010 dozer that I bought because I need it
I try to watch at least one or two of Andrews video's every day, they are all awesome and sometimes I get my questions answered before asking LOL / I hope I never run out of Andrew vids
Hahahhaha that poor , poor , DODGE TRUCK.
If Levi was watching you maneuver the big log at 28:45, he now knows how to bring a long stick through his doggy door.
And after you remove THAT tree that could fall on my house, I have 700 other ones. I don't know why I didn't think about that when I built.
Man, most of the people making negative comments must live in the city, and buy their pre-cut wood from HD, have their cute little box trailer, towed behind their cute little SUV. This is called getting done. Look at the construction of Alaska pipeline and how it was done, have the 27K people working there were high or drunk half the time. Not to say you shouldn't take care, but the guy can move a trailer and picnic table with and excavator, I think he has a handle on things.
I hate HD wood. It's usually slash grade, meaning full of knotholes, chunks missing, rarely do you get a clean board unless you search and search for them.
C MH e
love your vidios, muck boots are nice, cutting wood i pull the pants over them, chips in the socks! that trailer is a best, sergel dratchev should borrow it, ha ha, another u tuber i watch. log tongs are great to have. i beat you could fold a napkin with the machines. last i hope you get a ton of work so we can watch you ever day for a long time, thanks you andrew.
I loved the way you moved that Airstream .....LOL PUSH OVER I SAID !
I didn't. If that was mine I would have an issue. Then he moved the picnick table...
The customers knew he would be coming.. Maybe they asked him to do it.
Until I saw him move it I was going to compare the owner here with the Range Rover guy! The horrible job he took getting all those logs out of the ditch. I hope he made $5k minimum!
nice work as usual Andrew, that's a great haul of timber you got.
That house looked awesome. I'll bet it's nice to stand on that topmost balcony thing. Never seen anything like that.
The Arkle
Looks like the trees have outgrown the height of that balcony but the drone footage shows it is spectacular.
Perhaps future tree removals for Andrew to regain that view.
Looks like a widow's walk, or some call them a widow's watch when it's enclosed. From some old folklore that the wives of sailors would anxiously await their husbands' arrival home, they would watch from the highest point at home overlooking the harbor or sea for their husband's ship to return to port. And if it never came back (there was a lot of ships lost in the early days), the wives would becomes widows.
I bet the saw mill loves you for all the extra oak you get for them. Oak is expensive wood to buy around here.
Im just saying try putting less logs in the trailer so you wont have to pull your truck out
He learned from that and it looked as though the logs were pulled closer to the driveway, then piled on to the trailer.
As soon as he started to load the trailer, I knew he would get stuck. There was a fair weight on that trailer. :)
I was also sure, just seeing the suspension take the load (overload?). I'm guessing, with editing he made four trips?
I'd say he did it to enhance the video knowing he would likely get stuck. people like to see a certain level of stuff going wrong. it makes the video more entertaining.
@daveknowshow.... well... yeah, it does make the video "more entertaining", but it could come at the cost of him damaging his own equipment, or God forbid, something worse. I can't speak for everyone, but I'd rather see things go relatively normal (if there is such a thing as normal), than see his equipment getting busted, torn up, jacked up, flattened down... I think this guy works hard enough at keeping his equipment working. What we see in the videos is what it is, he doesn't seem to pull any punches or hide his mistakes. And in the end, he's a human being. He wasn't born knowing everything there is to know. I just think he sticks his neck out a bit every now and then, and has incredibly good luck at pulling off some off the moves, doing the jobs that have to be done. I wish him well, but I also enjoy that he shares his repair ventures and adventures with us. This guy has balls, not only on his jobs, but in the projects he takes on for his own personal benefit, too. He's a happy-go-lucky man, and we're all fortunate to be able to follow along with him. His sense of humor (that's what I call it) adds brilliantly to the content. Whether he does things while working to enhance his videos, I can't really say one way or the other, but either way, his videos are addictive. Haven't yet seen one that I felt wasn't worth my time to watch.
time to invest in a WoodMizer all that free wood you getting ..
I enjoyed your video and got so tired watching that after it was done I took a nap.
Wouldn't it be cheaper to call a tree guy instead of bringing in heavy equipment!!!!!
I don't think so, they usually get $1000 for a tree like that. Plus they cant get the stump out, or take the logs away like I did.
Nice of you to move the Airstream for them.
Wow just wow job well done 🚜🚜
Love your videos hon, You are a great example of keeping America Great Again! Thank you so much hugggs
Andrew the quality of work you do it outstanding. I'm actually bummed-out that I don't live up your way to hire you and experience it first hand.
20:00 the trailer is incredibly overweight, very dangerous without trailer brakes and a truck that under classed !!!
Sometimes you can learn by watching Andrew do his thing and make decisions about what to do differently. However I don't see the need to scold Andrew rather than just enjoy the show.
Joseph Fields
Guilt trips have no effect on me,
so stop acting like a big pussy, Andrew can handle it,
besides i know what fuck im talking about, ive been in the business over 45 years
...so go cry to your mommy, boy !!!
Yea that was a bit scary even just going a few miles.
fluke196c never any complaints from your mother !!! :D
lastfanstanding999 you’re an AH
Man, you are an OSHA inspector's wet dream
I work by myself, their bullshit doesn't apply to me.
Looking great, will you use the timber yourself for your garage? Thank you for sharing your amazing video. God bless you and your family
I really like how you repair the areas that are damaged, it shows a lot of care and pride in your work. And I can tell you enjoy doing good work.
keep it up buddy, I watch all your videos.
I said it before I'll say it again, Andrew get yourself a portable sawmill :)
Nice work Andrew!
37:03 i would have took those 3 also, but you know me... i hate any tree close to the house,
if its within 200ft take it down !!! it saves you allot of trouble,
and sooner or later you'll have to deal with them anyways so might as well... chop-chop 'm up !!! :D
a dozen more tree to cut Andrew lol
Beste underholdning. Du er god.👍🌞👍
Love it how you take pride in your work leaving it looking good after a happy customer make more customer's
great work again. kinda surprised the owner didn’t relocate their Airstream for the duration of the work. wow.
hay has bad seeds in it. Use straw if available
The seeds will grow stuff that's green.
His wife probably wasn’t home when they did this I bet when she saw it she was like holy fuck!! What happened to my trees??!!
She was the one who wanted it done, she was very afraid of those trees falling on the house.
Ohh lol some women are nuts about cutting trees down
Nice arial shot.
WAY , WAY too much weight on that trailer !
I built that trailer, its fine.
ITJust looks like its' to much weight !
Any time there's an interruption of service (i.e shutting the gas off at the tank) a leak check is "required" before service is reinstated "tank turned back on." Other than that, keep up the good work!
Andrew The get away SCOOTER WAS GREAT. IF I WAS DRINKING A beer!!!!!!!!!!! WHILE I WAS WATCHING THE GET AWAY RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!! I would have drop the beer ...... BECAUSE I WAS LOLOLOLOLOL TO MUCH. GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO THINK ITS TIME TO GET A NEW USED TRAILER.?????????? Also think it's time to step up to dual rear wheel truck unity body type. Just going to throw this out there...... Bucket trucks are cheap these days. I think you should buy one,,,,,, for all the tree work and every thing else you do......But step up to the plate. Get a transport plate. So you go down the road with Pettbone and the bucket truck with that plate,,, It's just used from one point to another point that's it,,,, The plate is not to be used to drive around in two or three vehicles.. Saw one guy dong that,,,,,,,,,,,, keep up the great work.
Take care. Junkmando
Very enjoyable. Wished we had knowledgeable diggers in my area.
That’s a nice place by the river, only if it had in good fish in it. Great videos, and job.👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
That Hitachi can do it all!
The homeowner needs that lumber to build himself a new home!!
I know you know how to run your equipment, but leaving that air-stream trailer parked so close to felling trees was simply stupid. You do good work, but why risk such an easy accident?
Maybe because he knows what he is doing!!!
Nice work Andrew! Your work is impeccable! 🍁🍂🍃🌲 can't wait to see the next videos, are you going to do any videos redoing pond's or anything like that.
Brilliant. I liker the way you cleaned up after yourselves, Great Job.
the hay:: all that you said plus it keeps the birds from eating the seeds.
Is that Hitachi the one you salvaged from the woods after it had been abandoned?
No, thats another youtuber, and a heavier machine too
Thank you. I don't mind being corrected.
@@richardcline1337 , I also saw that other video. That was in England.
Andrew the amount of knowledge you have at such a young age is remarkable. Keep up the great work and be safe my friend!
22:54 I love how you threw your weight into it like it does anything… i do that too.
I think everyone does lol
It works on a lawn tractor but that one, I don't think it helped. LOL
