Chinese Mini Excavator Digs Utility Pipeline Using Rhinox Bucket

[@dinomite_diggers3453]

Each time I watch your videos you are getting better on that machine, keep up the good work. Once I saw your digger fall in the trench you had dug, no big deal I've been there done that. I was surprised to see you try and lift it out but most likely just a panic reaction. I'm impressed that you posted that because I personally probably would have deleted that bit. But good on you because with machinery sometimes shit really does happen eh. Take care bro.

[@everydaywithmenick]

Thank you very much, I appreciate the support. That time when I fell in was a learning stage of my digging life. I've been told if you've never slipped down or fell in then your not s real operator 😆 you'd be surprised of how the machine can be lifted slightly depending on its centre of gravity. I want to raise awareness for those out there that, even as a amateur or professional it can happen. You've just got to step back and assess it and just go with plan A right through to Z. Part of the reason I don't wear my belt is because on that machine it's easier to jump of rather than stay put, I know that's not good safety sense but it's proved its worth already. Thank you again for watching, really appreciate the kind words.

Nice one Nick I hire a little digger in when I’m messing in the garden because the previous owner of the land buried everything thing When he was offered a few meters of concrete he’d have it for another base or path Thanks Nick great vid I always find them interesting you’re a lad after my own heart 👍👨🏻‍🏭

[@everydaywithmenick]

Thank you Paul 😊 Ain't it nice when someone just puts a lot of concrete down and you've got to break it up 😆 it's a lot of hard work. Thank you again, I appreciate your continued support.

[@TreeChangeFarmer]

Nice work Nick. Inspired now to get on my mini digger to do 150 metres of 'French Drain' at my place (when the bloody rain stops!)

[@everydaywithmenick]

Hey David, it rains in Australia ? 😄 I know it does, just being silly 😆 French drains are so simple and their design is amazing but easy. Be an easy task for your machine buddy. Thank you as always 😊

[@guzi1980]

Good job 👏

[@Wadesworld-1]

Been subbed since around 300 subs loving your videos and your growth keep it up mate Australia loves you

[@everydaywithmenick]

Aww thank you, I appreciate your support you've given since you've joined. I have no idea where this channel is going but I'm just rolling with it 😆 Despite what's going on in modern politics, we love you too Australia 😁 Thank you 😊

[@agriculturayconstruccionus6154]

What size bucket you use? Great job!

[@everydaywithmenick]

the bucket i used on this dig was 170mm wide with the wings on the bucket. They call them a utility bucket i think. Thank you for commenting 👍

[@infrontleah5046]

Nice video

[@everydaywithmenick]

Thank you 😊

[@Meldelkel]

Great video again Nick - digger is still going strong - whats the hours on it now? Good to see the chanel growing you deserve it

[@everydaywithmenick]

Thank you very much, yes the digger is still doing OK, it's got 125 hours on and is needing some maintenance and upgrading. I'll be showing these on some future videos. Thank you as always buddy 😁

[@alan0166]

Thanks again Nick always look forward to seeing your videos. NTW Have you done a video on how to price jobs? I'd be very interested.

[@everydaywithmenick]

My prices are just based on a day rate unless I feel the need to price a job up accordingly. I try to keep it good priced for both parties. Thank you for your continued support 👍 😊

[@paulthompson3877]

you might not have had sound due to the camera had its ear muffs on so it coundnt hear , love ya work Nick .

[@everydaywithmenick]

It certainly needs them sometimes. Even I need to invest in some proper ear defenders. Thanks for watching buddy 👍

[@canadianpopeye8066]

That mini is going to pay for itself this summer.

[@everydaywithmenick]

Thank you Popeye 😄 it kind of already has, the work I have been able to do with it has been invaluable. Thanks for watching 😊

[@livingoffgridinscotland]

@@everydaywithmenick we bought a 4 ton jcb 804, £6500 before prices went mental, did 800 hours work with it in the first year so it basically paid for itself twice over…. Buying a machine is always a sound investment compared to hireing one!

[@everydaywithmenick]

@@livingoffgridinscotland you aren't wrong, thr local lads who hire them are 80 - 90 a day hire so that sharp adds up but when it's just daft 1 day jobs then it doesn't. It's just far more convenient having it there ready for work though.

[@livingoffgridinscotland]

@@everydaywithmenick totally I was hireing a digger in for a weekend at a time, losing half a days work elsewhere on a Friday to collect a digger and losing half a day on a Monday, then £180 for a weekend hire on a shitty 1.5ton digger with not enough buckets… I borrowed the money to buy mine and it’s costing £176/month over 5 years but the work we’ve done is phenomenal and I’ve got over 10 attachments now so it’s far more flexible than one you’d rent

[@everydaywithmenick]

@@livingoffgridinscotland that's the way to do it if you can. For the DIY Joe it's not worth buying one but for me and likes of yourself it can be handy in so many ways. And then when I can go out to do some work it's paid for itself that month 😄 you've got to see all aspects of it. Can you get work for it where you are up there ?

[@matthewwu4144]

Nice excavator just too much noisy😅😅😅😅

[@everydaywithmenick]

Yes sir it is. I'm looking at putting a 3 cylinder engine into it. That would be so much nicer then. Thanks for commenting 😊

[@ludditetechnologies]

What Wade said. (in Oz too)

[@everydaywithmenick]

Thank you Matthew 😊

[@Ants_Pants]

Rhinox Bucket. Hmm lol

[@livingoffgridinscotland]

It’s a “herd” of alpacas

[@everydaywithmenick]

😄 I ask Paul later on in the video and he confirms its a herd too. I'm usually knowledgeable when it comes to that kind of stuff but a pack of alpacas kind of sounds right 🤣 Thank you for helping me, thank you also for watching 😊

[@livingoffgridinscotland]

@@everydaywithmenick yes, I commented before I got to the end of the video!

[@everydaywithmenick]

@@livingoffgridinscotland I sometimes do that but now I refrain until the end then I forget what I was going to say 😆

Hi on mine excavator I put folio under seat and now is -15db

[@everydaywithmenick]

Have you done a video on that ? Is Folio a brand ? 15db quieter is a good start. Thanks for that buddy 👍

[@МаринМаринов-и3з]

@@everydaywithmenick hi nick do you have problems with bolts on motor for 360°

[@everydaywithmenick]

@@МаринМаринов-и3з do you mean when you spin and they catch the dozer blade ?

[@МаринМаринов-и3з]

@@everydaywithmenick no ,motor ho rotate 360° I fixed the problem with new bolts 12.9 they are more strong Chinese was 8.8

[@everydaywithmenick]

@@МаринМаринов-и3з no but I will have to check these now, are you able to provide a bit of a video to show what exactly you mean ?
