Big Overflow And Spillway Completed

[@tonyatkins3370]

"Sound's like DP" love it... I would love to see this project working during a heavy storm.

[@danielcollier4401]

think a lot of us would like that

[@stevekline3383]

As do I.

[@IR-nq4qv]

I gotta say Chris, I've been watching you for a long time and never seen someone so much on the same page as your uncle John, you guys don't even have to speak and still know what needs to be done next, you work awesome together even without speaking or direction, , thought I should mention it and give credit where its due.

[@coldcaribbean]

Totally agree. I wish @letsdig18 would interview his uncle on a video.

[@ThorbjrnPrytz]

1: Years of experience together 2: magic of editing....

[@jiggsborah7041]

I'm a mechanic... I just love that gentle touch... operators destroy machines. Good stuff..I like watching your videos

[@mib20000]

operators destroy machines because they dont own them. when you spend $100k plus you tend to take care of your machines

[@thejacobhill]

Operators who don't foot the repair bill I'm guessing..

[@george8873]

Dunno if you follow C&C Equipment on here, but they've been repairing a dozer where the operator was pulling logs at a 90 degree angle to the winch and ended up destroying the winch, causing 10s of thousands of dollars worth of damage. There was so much torque/pressure that it practically ripped the winch housing off the back of the dozer and made the drive shaft look like corkscrew pasta. Also messed up other stuff. It's a mess and was all because of operator error.

[@marcryvon]

@@george8873 Who's looking for a new job, propably. Hopefully ?

[@koldsteele]

Theres Operators and then theres Wreckmasters

[@godsdozer]

Hey letsdig18, from a fellow dirt contractor its nice to see another contractor always giving their customers top notch work. I've been doing this since 1991 and not many make their jobs look like yours (and mine). Excellent work my friend your attention to detail is fabulous. For those who are not familiar with dirt work, not every customer wants this high quality work, so they choose the lowest bidder.............. we love those customers too, because we get to make more money fixing those errors at a later date.

[@ringstinga]

Very tidy work indeed Chris/John, Great to watch the complete project from start to Finnish ! And you were grinning from ear to ear when you said about the clanging bucket and Dirt Perfect 🤣😂🤣 Respect from Scotland.

[@CorbinAce]

A thing of beauty. You should have been a heart surgeon the way you use that bucket. Thanks for letting us watch. Kudos to you and John. Great team.

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Chris the finished job is beautiful, you and John work together like a well oiled machine! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

[@patgregory3413]

Hard work

[@jackiesiebrass3321]

Super productive job...tell John we love him..hes such a hard worker like you...hope the owner loves that professional job...

[@oldschoolhoosier]

Clinging and clanging……lol and DID DP catch that….lol…Chris just lite the match….lol..Best two Excavating Guys in NC and IN…..lol nice job Chris

[@TheHillbillyEngineer]

Nice Job Chris and John! Rock On!....I laughed so loud that I startled my wife when you were talking about the clankin' bucket and dirt perfect. :)

[@3632304]

Chris, that is an awesome job you done on that spillway. Hope the compliments don’t make your head swell too much but every video I watch that you share are done so damn good. Clean and tidy. I love how you role brother

[@anthonycutler2105]

It's almost like a guy's making art with heavy equipment, damn does that end result look good!

[@davidmerryman5565]

You know you have to revisit this when it is flowing. I would like to see how much water is going through them

[@MrJiblack]

That compactor wheel always reminds me of a garden tiller my dad used to have for some reason lol

[@oldshad65]

Not only are you a master at your craft but you show up! Customers must be thrilled.

[@danielr1615]

This job was a work of art. Skill and knowledge go a long way.

[@hphillips7425]

I will be glad when the bucket is fixed also. I don’t think you hear thunder it’s the bucket rattling and clanging Looks good 👍🏻

[@bobbydawson7706]

I love how you have an eye to detail!!!! I know that who ever you work for is very pleased 😀😀❤️👌

[@stephenkeefer3436]

Ha!! “ All that clinging n clanging….” - and that’s how the feud started..😂 Job looks so nice it needs some purty wild flowers growing.

[@hentycatsanctuary2951]

A spillway fit for hoover dam job looks amazing well done great video,s , thanks for sharing them to us cold guys in Australia, i got the fire on and you all running around in shorts damm

[@jdsparky288]

“Sounds like Dirt Perfect over here, heh,heh,heh,heh” That cracked me up bud!

[@tomswindler64]

Great ending for a very nice transformation of pond improvements.great job.continue on 👍👍👍😎😎😎

[@mikeweagle5523]

Chris, I love the respect and confidence John has in you. He walks around in the area you are working with the machine seemingly oblivious. He has complete confidence in your ability! Nice job. your client should be pleased.

[@itzmikeomg2755]

You have a talent for making your work look really good.

[@dalandamcgee8752]

I would love to see this overflow in action, I can't imagine the volume with those four pipes. Do you think you could ever bring us back when there is a HEAVY DOWN POUR?

[@koldsteele]

That would be Sweet

[@rabidbigdog]

Was about the comment the same. I'd love to see the flow that causes the need for these four pipes.

[@cheskydivision]

A rainy day follow up like Shawn from Gates city foundation. That would be something to see.

[@deernutOO]

Great to watch the precision work being done by Chris. Envious of your talent and line-up of great equipment.

[@rustysteel8714]

If any water gets AROUND those pipes...and not THROUGH them...I'll eat my hat! 😁 Beautiful work Chris and John! 👏

[@glennwolfe1663]

Chris, the spillway looks awesome👍👍👍👍👍 Thanks for sharing this project😺🤗🐺

[@joelwatts4297]

You and John do a great job of working together

[@donnaflanagan6612]

Chris, you & John have done an excellent job. Loved the DP friendly jib🤣 Take care & cheers 🐨🦘🥰

[@Brian-wq6oi]

That is a sweet looking repair. Great work.

[@timziegler9358]

Words don't convey the attention to detail and the subsequent quality of the results! Well done!

[@johnlatham7092]

Gotta come back in the future and see the four pipes doing their jobs in the rain ! Great work by both of you and great video. Cheers from Sydney Australia !

[@craigallan4322]

Excellent job Chris and John. Attention to detail, second to none.

[@WeaponsMachinist]

it would be co puh setic to see these over flows working. what a rush.....

[@craigwavra3495]

Enjoyed this series!! Always good to see the spillway get it’s rock!! Makes it look finished the way you lock it in. Agree, time to change out the pin on the bucket!

[@michaelbrausch8874]

You and John work well together! Kids are gonna love those tunnels!

[@chrispy104k]

Nice work Chris. Residents are going to enjoy the view when the pond overflows.

[@donbennington677]

I've been watching you for a long time Chris and I'm sure you have more control of your machine than I have over my hands. Thanks, I enjoy seeingthe projects and the work

[@michaelbraga9620]

Have a nice weekend maestro! A true master on the sticks!!

[@DMAN10]

Excellent job as usual Chris! Shots fired with the DP comment! 😂😂😂

[@stevencorley2352]

if that overflow ever runs at capacity I hope the landowner sends you a video of it. Should be awesome. nice job.

[@Vickie-Bligh]

You make it look easy when it's anything but! Nicely done and yeah if all 4 discharge fully, what a sight that would be!

[@matthewcloud112]

Great video Chris if that job is close to home it would be great to see it working in a flood condition 👍 😀

[@bennetts-revenge_2]

Wow what a Hugh difference! Looks fantastic Chris, you and John do an awesome job. Doesn't look like the same place

[@mohawk1778]

I can’t be the only one that loves the way the riprap sounds when your laying it out and it’s knocking around into itself

[@dennis2376]

That looks awesome. Thank you for taking us along. Have a great day.

[@terryrogers1025]

On a scale of 1-10 on the sweet looking finished jobs I think that would rate a 10. It is just really nice and finished with quality, I love a nice manicured look at the end of a project I would be proud of it if it were mine. Your client has to be pleased, thanks for the ride along.

[@General_Confusion]

For a few seconds there during the time-lapse, I'm sure i saw Chris with a shovel in his hand. He must have borrowed it from someone.

[@FishFind3000]

Must be a a long lost twin or an imposter. Blink twice if your under duress!

[@John13Edge]

Someone must of paint Volvo on the side of the shovel 😉

[@dalecherry4044]

He he's the biggest one in his hands all day long.

[@kennykenlein4716]

That was a stand in!

[@kevinmountford4541]

Was he leaning on it.?

[@dwb73]

I've learned to be skeptical of my own reservations when I look at some of your engineering plans. That 30" 4 culvert system so close to the surface looks very wash-out-able. But, in the end, your jobs seem to always seem to turn out flawless and work perfectly!

[@renaissancewomanfarm9175]

I learn something new from you all the time! Would love to see you make a pond that has a beach area.

[@wilburroth5150]

You two guys work very well together. As always, nice work!!

[@coldcaribbean]

Love the videos, and for some reason, I love the sound of that riprap pouring out of the bucket!

[@grumpyg9350]

So organized. Beautiful work!👍👍👏🏻👏🏻

[@kens.3729]

Another Quality Job and both you and John got a Lot Accomplished in 3 1/2 days. I bet it Performs well for the Customer. 👍

[@kittty2005]

@25:25 That's the funniest thing you've said in a while, made me chuckle, I just said a couple minutes ago the bucket was sounding like the 120's, but we know it's a budgetary item, when you can you will get it fixed.

[@johnbradbury433]

A credit to you and John. Good team work. Like the info about Dirt Prefect! It was you who help me find is channel. Thank you.

[@rondastump8930]

Loved this video, thankful to get to watch all!!! Big project with many different facets. Looks amazing and impressive! Thank u so much for video, so interesting to watch and follow. God's blessings and take care of yourself!!!

[@Ferrosteph]

Very nice product at end! I hope you can film it a day under heavy rain! Greatings from Belgium

[@jeffreykbevins7116]

That is a great looking job, well done !!! 🤗👍💖💫

[@marksaunders2500]

Hi from uk chris👋👍 great job getting this finished and you guys really did a fantastic job 👌 I think if these four ever reached capacity then it would be awesome thing to see 👍 lets just hope it never comes to.more than a trickle in each tho👌 thanks for your time and be safe see you soon 👍👋

[@royordway9157]

Nice job Chris and John. It looks really nice. It would be cool to see the overflow pipes in action. Now the phone guys can come in and screw up the road with their repair.

[@thatdave86]

It's a wonder that they didn't lay a pipe ducting for cables ,the phone guys will probably moan that they can go deep enough because of the pipes ,

[@JCrook1028]

@@thatdave86 The lines were only 6" deep before.

[@jeremys959]

Now I want to see this spillway in action

[@phillippearson2596]

Yes impressive job Cris. My OCD was playing up when you were laying that stone along the edges LOL Thanks for sharing , stay safe.

[@adavazquez6912]

Great and excellent job, there's none that does it better. 💯💯💯

Chris handles that bucket as skillfully as a surgeon's scalpel.

You gotta love the end result of a proper riprap channel. Call me crazy, but it really looks beautiful. I'm sure the owner is very pleased with the job.

[@markthompson2440]

I can't believe how fast you do these jobs to perfection..

[@jraydelatorre]

That was hilarious sounds like dirt perfect

[@thomasmalone9929]

Chris it saddens me to you ,that you lost a viewer this week. My dad turned 90 on June 10th he passed on the 14th. When I would visit him I pull up your latest videos. He was inspired by your many talents. He said he would really love to run that cable machine again. He was like you with equipment he just thought it done.

Thomas, I'm sorry for your loss. It's a tough time I know.

Nice work ! Need to return to this site when the spillway is in action. Be neat to see.

[@jackjaeger2189]

Nice job Chris. Our highway department took 2 months to do a similar project on a well-traveled road close to my house. It was a PIA. You did it in 3 days!

[@KMoran-cw2fd]

Another awesome job Chris.

[@Bass2010]

Very nice looking now all we need is some rain to see how it works and to have a good fire or three

[@leol1682]

Love this job you ave done Chris and John .

[@hackdlc]

Amazing how the riprap makes the finished job just look that much better.

[@fishermanmark7494]

Another fine Job Chris and John!

[@heatherlane9270]

Looks great - lots of different elements to this project - should last for many years. Dirt Perfect bucket rattle - funny comparison.

A nice job fo far will look good when you are done have a great weekend chris

Impressive as usual. Thanks for the Dirt Perfect chuckles that was funny. Now get that bucket fixed. Have a great weekend.

Great job, as always, Chris.

As always Great Job I would really like to see this in action just the magnitude of water coming out would be a site to see. And dirt perfect doesn't cling clang it squeals. LOL

[@georgebryant2940]

For two jobs in a row you feature your uncle in your video, great to see y’all working together. I know you have said in some of your Dirt Perfect interviews that y’all work in tandem on jobs and now we see that in these last couple jobs. Nice to see.

[@JCrook1028]

Yea this is a job of John's company. Other jobs are Chris on his own company.

[@Richard-C]

you really are talented, you do fantastic work, it's nice to see some one take pride in his craft 👏👏👏👍👌

Crazy I watch all your content and for some reason this project never came in my notifications. When I get home from work your your the first thing I watch before moving on to my trade . Still subed and all notifications on just relaying information

I'd say very impressive if all pipes are running. Great looking project.

Hi Chris Mark @ Logan here hay you did a fantastic job on that spill way keep up the fantastic work and can't wait to see more video's from u

I wish I had the talent he has in is pinky finger. He picks up riprap with an excavator, like I do sand with a shovel. Love the videos, keep.up the good work Chris/John. Love the attention to detail and pride he takes in his work, that's why he's so busy.
