we need more Uncle Drew content, the guys a legend still knocking out a hard days graft at that age
We need more Uncle Drews in this world. Can do man with a great mind.
This guy got fked. If this is a dump they filled it up with concrete friend.
We need more uncle Drew’s . 💪🏼
Looks like a pretty effective way of getting the concrete out. Plus you get the bonus of a pile of gravel to fill in the puddles 😁
Great shot of the drill breaking through - the lens did not die in vain ⚰
My thoughts exactly.
Very clever - clearly not Uncle Drew’s first rodeo, and proof as to why we must cherish our elders (we should be grateful for the lifetime of mistakes made for our benefit !)
Learning from other people's mistakes is one path to wisdom
Amazing that your uncle can still hear anything, standing by that air drill with no hearing protection for decades!!!
You'd have thought an Eye phone would have engaged Safety Squint. Cheers
Aye, as it should have. Great comment.
The part I like is how much fun your uncle has running it. Smiles from ear to ear. The auger company owes your uncle to getting their equipment back. I hope he was able to keep the paycheck.
The shame was there wasn’t 3 young blokes learning from him...the knowledge he has can never be replaced . That’s a very early Cummins ....the starter “key” was gold !! The flashing light would be the only thing made in this millennium and yet it all works perfect !!!
Those young blokes are probably at home making Tik Tok videos, unfortunately. Smart phones bring out the dumb in people...
A lot of people watch TH-cam videos in their smart phones, does that make you dumb?@@dc6233
I like these old boys, they know a bit, and a bit more they’re not telling !
Love it when you have to use old equipment to fix new junk
Must be really great working with family, being around people you like every day, problem solving with the people you look up to... thanks for sharing, what a gift!
That steampunk compressor looks like something from a Dr Seuss book. It's beautiful!
That old boy is a diamond. You see him and your Dad together what a font of knowledge. His old rig looks like something out of a Mad Max movie but with him at the controls it works. As for the old Muir Hills. He certainly makes them get up and boogie. Still remember him cutting laps on one at the old track at his place. Very impressive.
And off he goes into the sunset, what a great guy your uncle Drew seems to be. Thank you for taking us along for the ride.
Actually that was pretty damn impressive coming out the end with that much force, I was not expecting that much air pressure behind the plug!
34:08 that man’s late for supper! He’s driving it like he stole it.
Respecting the old timers who have forgotten more than I ever knew is lost now. Where I live that job would have been shut down for being unsafe, hazardous debris and noise abatement and probably some endangered species concern. We have turned into a bunch of over regulated, over litigated useless wanks. Love watching work get done by real men
Bravo Uncle Drew. Old school, Real Mad Max. I really need another video with his participation
Nice seeing you working with you dad and your uncle. Enjoy every second you can my friend!! It seems to end all too soon!!
Nothing beats years of experience dread to think what the world is going to do without us oul boys when we are gone no computers will replace us
I've drilled a bunch of them out with an 60lb hammer drill and a 10' rock drill. What I've learned was to beat on the freshly drilled augers with a sledge or back hoe bucket to knock free the rest of the concrete. If you don't it will break free in a couple days and plug up the auger.
Who needs safety glasses, ear defenders, hard hat or hi vis when you have an oem Fred Dibnah cloth cap 😅
Just goes to show, it don't matter how big of a a machine shop you have, sometimes what you need to make the hole is a cobbled together drill rig. Love it.
Being out with you lads and working is what is keeping Uncle Drew young! I have never seen family members of a family business as large as yours work so hard! How many family members work in the business? Do you have any brothers there? Did you ever tell the family story with respect to the business?
Hope to at some stage
I'm 63 now, but even as a child I loved hanging out with old geezers like your Uncle Drew who were mechanical and electrical geniuses who could take a piece of junk and with a little bit of clever engineering fix it and find find all sorts of useful ways to use it. Bless all our old folks, so many are treasures.
Solve this problem the same way you solve most really difficult problems. You ask the old guy. He probably knows. Great stuff.
I would give more thumbs up for Drew and Ken if I could. Thanks for the videos.
as a concrete mixer driver, I deliver to such pile drillers on a regular basis, they indeed have special recipe to make these piles very though. The blue colour indicates a very high cement content. I've never heard of drilling out these drill bits, I'll have a chat with our regular crews on that topic and tell them about this video. uncle Drew is a character, everyone should have one or two of them in their lives.
It looks like those augers were sitting a brave while and the concrete within was well cured. Fair play to your uncle drew, a fit man and well able for a day's work. He's the same age as my dad, he's a hardy leitrim man and is still grafting away refurbishing his house. That exit i his Muir - Hill was epic 😎. Thanks for posting this video, very interesting content. 👍
Everybody needs an Uncle Drew.
Your method works very well, one can also use a Water Jet at 5000psi and above, that works too, however if the cutting head wanders you can cut through the side of the Auger!! the pressure is so high it cuts steel just as easily as concrete.
Having that 160 years of experience on your side is priceless and you can never learn enough from them
my god, what an operation uncle drew saves the day love it. I thank everyone needs an uncle drew . what a legend.
Worked on a drill rig for a company called rockfall, part of the boskallis group.
We drilled under water at the Panama canal south Pacific entrance.
Drill rig like that hanging off the side of a barge.
Brings back memories seeing this.
I'm only 35 and now a farmer but the experience I picked up over the years helps me problem solve everyday in life.
Great video. Great solution.
A lucky escape lad there. But what a great way to clear out the auger drill. Brilliant and interesting video young man!
Uncle Drew saves the day! Hope I'm half as capable when I'm his age!
Uncle Drew is a Legend! kicking ass at 79! that made my day.
I knew hammer drill, but my mind drew a blank after that. Great solution! But the telehandler bushings...
Yar. Especially once the bit starts binding. I ran jacklegs and stoper rock drills in an underground mine. My body was the expendable bushing. If the bit stopped turning one way then the drill went the other. Best not to stand inside the hoses.
Thank you (and Uncle Drew) for creating this content. I love the sound of that compressor motor. A video about boring that ain't boring. I subscribed.
Well that was a little different, very entertaining. Surprising how hard that stuff actually was . Gotta say uncle Drew's a rare old guy with a serious amount of knowledge and know how a yup he certainly didn't hang out heading off . Very much an interesting character. Thanks for sharing this one allistair .
Great to have a man with the intrest and the kit to do a job like that, a lot of people would have to dump those
I love seeing all the older equipment being used. Great technique and great video!
Absolute class act is your Uncle Drew 👌
A genuine legend
Very impressive! Kudos for the whole team for comming up with the solution and the perfect execution!
Good to have old school stories told by family members. Brings good memories to mind. And let's the younger generations see how things get done.
God bless Uncle Drew, he is a National treasure!
Quality . Great to see how involved your family are, Bet they could tell some stories.
Another quality video. Uncle drew is top class, love the way he left the yard 👍
Good to see the Drew back and saving the day.
Fantastic! The way uncle Drew sped out of the yard was awesome. Pedal to the metal 😆 Its astonishing how quickly he drilled out those augrs.
Love the compressor great bit of kit 👍🏻
That was a very interesting look at a side of the construction industry I never see. Thanks for uploading this!
Some powerful kit and knowledge running with that blood,legends. Love how drew shifted the tractor for the youtube angles🤣
Brilliant need to document more of uncle Drew's life story he is a man of knowledge and wisdom. Well done.
The wealth of knowledge these gentlemen have! God bless 'em. Let them know how we appreciate them both.
Another great video. All awkward jobs are made easy when your working with people with a can do attitude. I think we all hope and wish to have uncle Drew’s energy and drive in out later years.
That's the solution I was thinking of .. small.portable drill/bore rig with a close enough bit on it.
Uncle Drew for the Win!
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
It's so strange, I was watching some drilling the other week at one of the HS2 sites and I wondered how they clean out set concrete from the augers.
Now I know!
Thanks for the interesting upload, proper job!
Awesome project there. I enjoyed seeing this process. Thanks another for that.
That was really amazing to watch, watching your uncle drive off made me think he’s a bit of a boy racer, as you mentioned earlier he’s certainly agile for his age, and I also hope that I’m that agile when I get to 80.
Damn fine piece of machinery! Genius ideas at work!
very neat way to doing it. I had to drill out on smaller down hole tools for the oil flied but never to this scale before. thanks for sharing keep up the good work
Old uncle Drew knows how to use the loud pedal on that tractor! Gotta love that guy!
Good to see your dad and uncle... love that content!
Oh boy what a mess! You guys saved the customer a lot of money. Make sure some of those savings go to your drill bit.
Nice work guys! Y'all take care.
Excellent approach and a treat to watch.
Dang...that old compressor motor runs GOOD!!!! Started up with the juice right good too! Uncle Drew to the RESCUE!!! Sounds like a song in there somewhere - Hahahaha. Don't apologize about the microphones - it's GREAT to see your Dad and Uncle commiserating about things they did together - though I can't hear what they are saying, I CAN SEE what they mean. You are a very fortunate, BLESSED man!! I pray you get many, many more of occasions like this - unforgettable and lovely. AND, just think, you got all that crushed concrete for free!
Ive never seen drilling done up close in person so this video was very informative for me
Fantastic great to see drew and Ken together with story time great video
Old hands are the best hands love you video keep them coming it's nice to see local people doing video
Great work lads, i wouldn't say there was any other way to get that concrete out, well done Drew 👍
I'm thinking the world needs more Uncle Drews
Seen a water flush one at a shop in Texas next to ours. Where it was one long rack with different size (C) clamps for bolting downward on pipes and those agars. Much easier when there laying down flat. 😎😎👍👍Good job you two for getting it done anyway how you could. P.S. shop also removed harden concrete from cement truck tumblers using explosives. The sound was like being in a mine tunnel every time it went off. 🎆🎆
You have to love uncle Drew, full of the pipe out the gap. Same in the irrigation well video. Class!
Nice to see the old minds at work👍👍nothing like thinking out side the box.
Great stuff! Looks like a Mad Max rig headin' down the lane!
Loved the video absolutely class. Would love a days work with u and uncle drew. Extremely interesting work
Brilliant... Love problems that become challenges.. and that was solved by some guys with serious knowledge. Nice Hymac crane in some of the footage.. very rare. Also some more Muir Hill tractors. NI must be an old plant guys Eutopia..
Remarkable on all levels, you've just saved them thousands of pounds. There cant be many places where you could have done that, I can imagine when the contract was taken on someone thinking about Uncle Drew. Thank you for sharing, sorry about your phone. 18 years as driller.
Absolutely superb, long may these gents continue
Hi Alister and uncle Drew, 😊 great job, I didn't think it would be so easy, whith the right men and equipment of course,amazing, well done. Thanks for another interesting video mate, stay safe, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.
Fantastic! Time for an Uncle Drew T-Shirt, the fella rocks 👊🏻
Thanks Alister, I just watched this again so cannot add another like for the algorithm. Hopefully a comment will help. Next search within your videos will be for Uncle Drew related content, so great to see him in action.
When i was in Algeria in the late 90s they used to remove concrete in oil drill pipes with high pressure water with abrasive media, but man that set up of yours is ripping it out!
I love those funky little loaders up there by the drill rig
Two shakes of a lambs tail.....as a Canadian of Irish heritage my Gramma//Grampa and Great Grampa used to say that. Thanks for the memory! great videos...
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼……………………………I had no idea how y’all were going to get that concrete out. That was COOL, and it was good to see your uncle again. The good news is that you got some gravel for that muddy lay down yard. LOL!
It just keeps getting better ..and what an interesting life you boys live
Peace n love from Cumbria UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
Great job, love it
Alistair, no school like old school lol.
Pizza and a pint , sounds good .Drew must have an interesting life being a well driller and drill driller too . thanks for the vid.
That Compressor motor sounds so smooth..Great Vid👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
That certainly was entertaining, thanks for sharing, that man some character. Him taking off at the end was priceless, Legend
Man i did not see that method coming! Sharp as a whip that guy was. 😀 Thanks for the video. Cant argue with your assessment, fantastic 😄
be great to spend a week or two way yous guys great craic an knowledge by the bucket full !!. I'd say your dad an uncle drew could have a few yarns to tell lol great video ali 👍
Had me stumped how those could be cleaned - I've a feeling you'll be getting lots more shipped over for a drill through.
Gotta love that old equipment. Just when everyone thought it ready for the scrap heap, Uncle Drew finds a really good use for it!
New tractor sounds well with the turbo, Drew's a legend ! 🙂
Nice work Drew.
Very educational. I wouldn't have known how that could be done.
Nice work! Ucle Drew is the man👍
