Extreme Makeover Pond Edition. Sure enough looks much better.

[@ConstructionMachineryChannel]

They need to put this on HGTV in place of all that other stuff they have on the channel right now!

[@royfcjr]

When this pond property grows back in next spring, it will be awesome.

When you have a truck for each trailer! Nice!

[@jimwilliamson7598]

You operate that excavator bucket like it was your hand! Nice to watch.

[@tiredoldmechanic1791]

An excavator with a brush mower seems to be the perfect combination. You can mow almost anywhere and trim trees.

[@jenniferbutcher8393]

Yeah....that mowing was epic! That is one handy peice of equipment!

[@pdppanelman5889]

You must have cold winters there. Look at at all that firewood!

[@uppsalahazzemarkstedt2759]

When Chris lit this multi megawatt fire the temperature will rise some degrees in this county for this winter! Haha

[@r1mein54]

Yep, that`s a real nice " hydraulic powered bush hog on a stick", does make slope mowing easy-

[@DANIELVINZANT]

In Alaska we dig big pits and burn in them. less chance of fire spreading and easy to fill in after the fire is out.

Other guy : This is my first Volvo. Chris: They do make a good excavator, i have one for every day of the week.

[@timmyfrierson2684]

Yea right, lmaoooo. He pretty much does have one for every job. Lol

[@staceygandy2009]

That bucket seems to hold more than you'd think. Cool.

[@hphillips7425]

The gravel you spread looks good you can really tell the week Brandon spent with you helped pick up your game

[@davehigginson949]

Thank you for the update on the fire :-)

[@GARDENER42]

The good thin with moving the burning stuff by excavator is every time you pick it up & drop it, more dirt falls out. I reckon it'll burn enough for what's needed& as you say, what's left is getting buried.

[@mslorry3420]

Hope you got some rain I'm ready for a fire! You sure do cover some ground in one day. Thanks for the trip to the damp. Looks like your technique worked! Have a great evening!

[@stephenkeefer3436]

Every doggone thing you touch with your equipment looks better when you’re done. :)

[@ranger2316]

There are three things men can't stop staring at: a campfire, a Zamboni, and a skid steer repetitively spreading rock in a parking lot!!!

[@alanconnors8881]

I'm a Zamboni Driver in Northern Rhode Island. And you got that right.

[@ranger2316]

@@alanconnors8881 I know ... right? You just can't help it! I should also add ... a babbling brook, or a body of water.

[@po4RP20361]

4, the first is a nice ass, but then again, I have an addiction

[@michiganengineer8621]

Personal preference, but I'd replace the Zamboni (and I do like my Wings) with watching boats blasting through Haulover and almost any other rough inlet.

[@ryanwaltos2206]

Also ski slope groomers... PistonBully 600 !

[@george8873]

I have a feeling the overgrown weeds and brush on that pond dam has been bugging Chris from the first day he seen this job, lol. The pond dam really does look nice once it was cleaned up.

[@IR-nq4qv]

Poetry in motion, Brother I swear you could probably sprinkle steak spice with that bucket. I got a busy day too, the boss got a honey-do-list for me to do as long as my arm. Stay safe Chris.

[@makingithappen5178]

The skid steer has been a very useful machine. It seems that it was a good investment.

[@KG-yn9qi]

Maybe use a pipe hooked to blower to keep air in at the bottom of the fire burn hotter. Need your mat scraper to pull it up !

[@ronaldziehlke9720]

He was mowing weeds on the pond dam on the damn pond. lol

[@ConstructionMachineryChannel]

Sure was, that mowing attachment is nice!

[@warrioroftheking3503]

Another awesome job Chris. I pray that you and the family had a great Thanksgiving and I pray that you all have a wonderful Christmas. God Bless you brother. Always a excellent job.

[@steelshotproductions]

Little kids dreams turn into big kids careers..........can't believe I'm watching someone mow (and like it).

You’re good at spreading that stone brother! 👍🏻

[@montygomez495]

Chris you have one hell of a job on that pond like always, you have made that pond look one thousand times better than when you started... And that tree At the 20 minute mark is one damn nice looking Christmas tree....take it home and dress it up

Hey Chris, the parking lot is the perfect place for re-cycled cement, for base material is works, and compacts very well!! Have a great rest of your weekend!

[@michaelpage9883]

The pond is looking good.

[@michaelkoop6731]

Looking very good Chris u are one hell of a worker. I dont think u ever take a day off. Thanks again for the wonderful videos.

[@ronpeacock9939]

semi wet pine can burn like gasoline... I've seen it for myself and with forest fires where I lived in CO...

[@michaelweatherhead9470]

You sure have a way with machines, nice touch spreading the gravel.

You make every last Rock count when you’re spreading it out on every site you use the Rock at. 👍

[@charlesbuggs8923]

Man i love watching ur videos on my 70"tv it's like seating in the cab with u always 👍video

[@timothybailey7118]

Have you ever considered a large wood chipper to mulch most of these types of piles then spread around the pond? I know they’re terribly expensive.

[@74jojo]

He do got great taste in excavators 😉

[@lorrainemartin6209]

Good job Chris the other day you were complaining about the landscapers blowing the leaves into the Lake today you are mowing the Grass into the pond. lol lol love your work Merry Xmas & a Happy New 2021.

[@timmyfrierson2684]

That was a damn good video Chris you got a lot accomplished in one day and the pond job is starting to shape up and looking good but anyway brother you and John and yawls families y’all stay safe and keep the videos coming man

[@aerotro]

Chris you should have called the scrap yard and borrowed one of their giant electro magnets to pick up all those nails then sell it to the scrap man lol

[@SteveDoesEverything]

Awesome channel. Love all your toys

[@enjoylife1176]

Awesome mower, you are prepared.

[@julieenslow5915]

Watching you on this project - when you discussed what you didn't want to do: digging a hole, getting solid dirt - then putting the pond mud bottom soil in the hole and bringing the solid dry dirt for the berms - it gave me an idea. If you know of a farmer who might like that mud bottom soil to use to enrich some land? Farms that have animals and grow their own feed have a special kind of wagon that they load full of manure, and can spread it out over a field. That soil in the pond could be safely disposed of that way - and it could be a boon for the farmers. Perhaps you could plug in to a local cooperative and at one of their regular meetings suggest you have something (for future projects) and would any be interested? I'm betting there is a way to get a sample tested to show how good it would be. Just an idea.

[@julieenslow5915]

OK now that smoking ground... well I live in Florida. And we have peat bogs that can catch fire and smoke like that for years. Do not put the soil on top of the burn pile until all the coals and embers are dead. Otherwise you are burning all the organic matter in the soil and depleting it of that element that promotes growth in plants and habitat for bugs (which are a part of the ecosystem and necessary!). I recognize this is not the way a person should comment if they intend to start following a channel, but I'd like to stick around, I am fascinated. I assume that our environments are sufficiently different you may not be aware of how burning the soil is rendering it lifeless. Given a few years it will start to rebuild it self, a decade from now it might be ok again.

[@johnthebaptist8284]

Love the videos buddy your awesome at what you do and very knowledgeable. I even got my wife watching with me know!! We sit and laugh at the madness! The, we have a royal mess tim video was hillarious . Oh and the backwards long reach controls!! Hahahahaha BEST CHANNEL ON KZbin HANDS DOWN! Be safe brother and happy holidays. Dont get dirty today.

[@juniorraines1042]

Great video Chris enjoyed watching

[@ralphprincen]

Should have dumped all the mud from the pond dredging job over the fire! Those 100 loads would cover up a good part of it.

[@richardschipper5989]

would have kept right on burning

[@johnnyholland8765]

Look everyone it is raining gravel...You don't need any special equipment to spread gravel gust a little speed and a shaky hand on the controls. I saw a right of way maint. company that had a big Cat excavator with one of those mowing heads on it and it was wicked.

[@sparky178]

Chris, when you are putting salt and pepper on your mashed potatoes do you spread it evenly like you do the gravel. Impressive 😊

[@donburg5125]

You have all the toys for anything that you do on job sites.

So many jobs where you could stay out of the mud. Sure enough you are back slinging mud. Makes for a long day. I think hydraulics is Latin for leaking oil line.
