Cattle Pond Dam is Taking Shape

[@poorfarm-nn6ii]

Still watching. Only about 40 minutes in. Looking good!

[@dirtguy6537]

Your dirt work business is growing fast more ponds demo work what ever pays the bills keep them coming.

[@smithworx1091]

I really enjoy the pond work. I appreciate you buddy

[@Thefunnyfarm78]

The farmer is lucky to have a good contractor like you to do the extra work to make that pond better and not just say good enough and collect a check and move on leaving him with future propblems and having to spend more money later to fix it again. Good call on making it meet a standard above his expectations. 👍 👍

[@PurpleNovember]

Absolutely! All of his work is like that.

[@smithworx1091]

Appreciate it, man. The last thing I want is for a customer to tell another contractor I left them in a bind.

[@blackdogexcavator21]

Ain't it funny how sometimes when you're working on a job, you keep getting the "while you're here, can you also do such and such" from the home owner? Lol. I love it when that happens.

[@smithworx1091]

Yep! Lol. Or the neighbors want some work done while I'm there.

[@kirk467]

Pond looks good brother, got a start with water! Cool, more work for you Smith Worx! Thanks

[@smithworx1091]

I like when I don't have to leave a place to do more work lol

[@tonymiles3106]

Another great video, its funny how jobs get you more jobs right next to each other, t hose are my favorite too. Hope yall had a Merry Christmas, and be sure to get Jimmy something.

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks Tony. I love getting these jobs back to back. I'm gonna get Jimmy a knuckle sandwich next time he gets an attitude 🤣

[@derrickpettit86]

Good work bro, you need a Harley rake for your skid steer, those attachments work wonders on dirt clumps an even getting sticks an stuff out, but you did awesome man, gonna look sweet all cleared, thanks for sharing an I look forward to seeing the next video 💪✊🤙👌🇺🇲🌲

[@smithworx1091]

Appreciate it bro. I wish I had a Harley rake.

[@jimmytew9468]

You did a great job on the pond. It's amazing how trees seem to grow once you get them on the ground and cut up and get ready to burn them. LoL I knew Ole Jimmy couldn't let you do all that work by yourself. I think he likes to burn things. LoL Y'all have a Happy New Year and Be Safe Out There.

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks Jim. Trees do seem to multiply once they're on the ground 🤔 🤣

[@Justalittleoutoftown]

Looks good. Nice leaf blower

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks buddy. I like this one a lot so far

[@09FLTRMM77]

MM77 Approved 👍🏻👍🏻…………………………..Looks great! If y’all ever get a good rain, maybe the cows can appreciate it! LOL

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks, buddy. This has been the driest winter i can remember.

[@kirk467]

Ole Chris at letsdig18 got himself a farm pond modification on a dam, he relaxing and enjoying this job! Widening the back slope of the dam so it will be more manageable for the farmer to cut the grass and maintain it! I’m getting ready to see if he posted a video today! From your drone view, it’s looking great Lindsey, good repair and upgrade on this pond brother! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@smithworx1091]

Yeah he should make quick work of that job. I'm about to sit down and watch his channel now

This project shaping up Nice, a few days behind watching it.

Appreciate you watching buddy

As always very good job brother. Cant wait to see more buddy Happy Holidays to you and your family my friend.

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks Paul! Hope y'all had a good Christmas!

[@tmitche72]

Great job on pond

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks a lot buddy

[@johnstark3058]

Looking good man!I have to admit that at first I was wondering why you weren't building up the perimeter of the pond to hold more water, but then I realized that the cattle have to be able to access it🤣🤣 Great job...nice blower by the way, I am a Stihl man myself, I bought a Stihl chainsaw in the 90's and it's still going, I've worn out the drive sprocket on it though....good stuff!

[@smithworx1091]

Appreciate it, bro. I honestly didn't think I was gonna be able to get that much dirt out of the bottom of the pond after digging that little test hole. I'm glad I was able to raise it up a bit. You just can't beat a stihl. One of the few things that are still worth buying nowadays.

[@lyleminyard2308]

Looking pretty good big daddy!

Great video as always. Keep up the good work.

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks a lot brother

[@kirk467]

Looks like it has a good hard pan of clay on the bottom of the pond Lindsey, and it started out sloppy mud! Goes to show you that it’s probably going to hold water for a long time my friend! Looks like good clay, for a pond dam! Good job Lindsey, thanks for sharing brother! Kirk in Louisiana sending prayers and positive energy for you and your family! Stay safe, warm and healthy throughout this winter my friend! I think the rainy season is coming soon, then if you do a check back on the pond filling, can you please show us an update! If the farmer will throw out some rye grass, I believe he’ll have a pretty good stand on grass by February and keep it from eroding throughout this winter! Looks good my friend! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks bro. Yeah I'll keep y'all updated. I need to give an update on that big pond I did earlier this year. We finally got a little rain

[@redfish7644]

Turning out to be a right nice pond 😎 that extra depth will come in handy with our lack of rain lately 👍😎

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks buddy. Man is it ever gonna start raining? Lol. It just seems strange at this point

[@bongobill2000]

Lookin good !! Looked like the cows were already checking out your work ! 👍👍

[@smithworx1091]

Thanks buddy. They been all over that thing lol. Curious as a cat

[@poorfarm-nn6ii]

I was so bad off on my first pond with no transit. But once I got it full of water I could see my mistake. Used the water to get the edges on point.

[@smithworx1091]

Water is the best level 🤣 but a transit is nice!

[@garyclemons1129]

Looking good buddy 👌

[@smithworx1091]

Pile your brush up and pull yourself out a hole in the center for the hay bale and get a bucket of diesel with the bucket tooth and drop it on top of the hay bale! With the blower blowing in from the outside!

[@kirk467]

Santa Clause brought you a Christmas present! lol 😂🎄🎅🏻🎄

[@PurpleNovember]

26:38 I’m not sure if it was the same stuff or not but I tried to have a little pond ( about 10’ around and 3’ deep in the center) in material a lot like that and it would not hold water at all! It was a nightmare to dig out too. I would literally use a power drill to drill a bunch of holes and then bust the chunk off with a splitting maul. I tried a mini ex and it wouldn’t touch it. The hole made for a good fire pit though.

[@smithworx1091]

Man I hope this isn't the same stuff. When it gets wet, it's real sticky. I figure it's just that gray clay that's hardened.

[@PurpleNovember]

@@smithworx1091 This stuff felt like clay with a little water on it but a lot of water it was slimy and gritty.

[@kirk467]

You want to make money you have to sacrifice yourself and your time myself friend, hopefully next year you’ll be more successful and established with more subscribers! I’m telling everyone about your channel Lindsey! You should get some diesel on your hay bales brother, just enough to get it going my friend!

[@smithworx1091]

I appreciate that buddy

[@tristardiggin]

That poor ole cow on your thumbnail needs something to eat!🤣😂😀

Wet hay bails is this amateur hour? I’ll be on site tomorrow I’m taking over as project manager.

[@smithworx1091]

🤣🤣 come on. I need a good manager

[@kirk467]

I don’t understand how they can sale wet hay to start with Lindsey!

[@smithworx1091]

Me either. I was not happy

[@PurpleNovember]

Yeah that’s a pretty big deal! Just handling that stuff moldy can make someone sick.

[@randywilson6869]

U need a automatic blade controller

What's that?
