Clearing Out For A View Behind The Cabin!! [Private 10 Acre Lake Project]

[@AurigaMV]

It's your property, and you can do whatever you want! Working with the excavator looks incredible, especially when you're using 'The Claw' to clear the area. The pond is already looking amazing, and I think when you and Chris finish with it, it will be just stunning! Thanks for the video; I'm always excited to follow your progress! 🙌

[@prestonvaughn2078]

Got another repeat viewer. Chris led me here, and now I'm subscribed and hooked. Place is going to be great, good fishing, hydro power, beaver pelts just waiting to be taken! 😉

[@tsink6]

Great job

[@BigGary79]

In regard to your drone that landed itself in the water, if you're still within your warranty period you can contact DJI and they can perform a data analysis on your flight record to determine the cause of the incident. In some cases customers have received a replacement drone. Thanks for the videos. Love watching this project between the two channels.

[@kirk467]

Not taking long to clear your view of the pond, Brian! You definitely have a nice setup on your excavator! Oh yeah it’s going to produce some nice fish, brother! The haul truck will be able to haul a lot of loads! I was hoping Chris would put a thumb on his Volvo 350, I think it would benefit him when taking down trees and stacking his big burn piles! He likes to stack the debris high up in a pile! Helps the wind blow through it to dry it out faster! Thanks for sharing this video my friend! I’ve been praying for everyone affected by the hurricane, oh crap the drone went down! WOW, you can’t paddle a boat out and retrieve it? Take care Brian, see you in the next one brother! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙋🏼✌🏻✌🏻💯💯💯

[@gdismine01]

That grapple does amazing work.

[@andrewh5988]

I could watch you all day , awesome

[@glennspreeman1634]

Governer on that Deere sure is tight. Sure snorts, love it!

[@waynetubbs5914]

You operate your equipment pretty good you also do good work!!!! You and Chris should go into business together but I can already know what Chris is about he's a whole crew in his self!!!! Lol the pond is looking nice by the way

[@kirk467]

That’s the little cove, Chris dredged out right behind those trees! Be a nice spot to fish in the evenings, Brian! Wish I lived closer to yall, I’d love to visit you and your pond and visit Chris’ farm! He just made a video on draining an old pond in the back of his property! It’s going to be a lot of work on his pond!

[@kirk467]

Hey Brian, I guess yall survived the storms! These video critics need to learn that, this is your property and you will do with it whatever YOU WANT! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@richardacerra2975]

You will no doubt plan a nice line of trees and shrubs on the property to block that view of tract houses. Project looking great and I can't wait to see how you develop the homestead.

[@BrushCommando]

Thank you, There’s more to come even after this project. Yes, I’ve planted 275 green giant privacy trees but it’ll take a few years to block everyone out.

[@hydraulic-hum]

sorry your drone went for a dive into the pond, you have some great footage..

[@davidfrancis3358]

Found your channel thru letsdig. Just wanted to let you know you're doing a great job on the videos

[@steveminton8329]

It's your property. You can do whatever you want . People are always trying to tell others what to do 🙄

[@glennspreeman1634]

Or should have done after the fact.

[@michael_3985]

Is that an old loggers clam . You sure can operate it like you’ve had it a while. I’m new to the channel and already lovin it.

[@Scot_WestTexas]

That Deere is a real beast 😳

That Grapple is a mauler!

[@Oldyellor]

You do what makes you happy

[@young11984]

Never heard the 500’ rule before, we have a burn pile 100’ behind my house and been burning limbs and yard debris for 10yrs there. At the point now where i need to scoop up all the ashes and spread it in the garden again

[@BrushCommando]

@@young11984 “open burning” in NC is considered a fire larger than 6ft in diameter. A small fire in a fire pit within 100’ is fine. Every time I burn large piles of land clearing debris I must get a permit from the Forestry Service and follow the guidelines. Their fines are high if you’re within that 500’ distance… up to $25,000/Day

[@young11984]

@@BrushCommando i usually have it stacked 10’high and its about 20’ across, i stack up stuff as it falls and last year a huge oak dropped 6 limbs one was 18” at the first cut so i was a pretty big fire. I always wait till its one of those miserable misty rains almost like dense fog then set it on fire so no hot embers will do anything. Yea i dont have anything near as massive as Chris has and only reason is i do not have an excavator to stack it that high lol, just an old track loader and front loader on my tractor

[@derrickpettit86]

Your property, you can do what you please with it, Chris is gonna make that pond look amazing , he is a pond master for sure, are you a vet? Thanks for sharing

[@BrushCommando]

No doubt, he’s a man with a plan! Yes, Air Force veteran. -Brian

[@BigTader]

Can you trap the Beavers or just use them for target practice? The pond is going to look great when Chris and you get done with your renovation to the pond. Stay safe and hydrated.

[@BrushCommando]

Thanks, they’re being relocated, permanently by a neighbor… 7 so far.

[@gurumediation9925]

Would not recommend flying drones directly over reflective surfaces (like water) as it can confuse the sensors specially on the cheaper drones. I bet this is mentioned on user manuals, but is also mentioned on the mandatory courses people need to take to fly drones at least in Europe. Anyways sorry about your loss...

[@Lou-f]

That grapple worked a treat 👌🏻 Do you not get a replacement off dji if you bring it back?

[@BrushCommando]

@@Lou-f going to try.. need to find it after the pond dam is breached

[@Stratos53100]

1st watch of chaannel..( Found since Chris's work ) You have quite the spot there... Sorry about the drones, from what others have said about the flight data maybe you can do something w that..

[@GoBlue79]

Looking good Brian. Do drones need ground-to-drone radar that would be affected over water? ~ David

[@BrushCommando]

Thanks. From what I’ve been told it can confuse the sensors if it’s flown over reflective surfaces

[@joshmcdevitt190]

In the video when you stacked brush, I noticed you kept the saw to your left wrestling the trees. Then spin it 180 to cut them,what’s the advantage to plucking with the saw on the cab side of the machine?

[@dankreoger611]

The Claw!!😊

[@BrushCommando]

@@dankreoger611 ha! the neighbors named the excavator “Bumble Bee” because they say it’s like a Transformer.

[@avnsteve1]

It's your drones LIDAR system, LIDAR is known to have some hinky behaviors over water

[@BrushCommando]

Thanks! Lesson learned

[@margaretckamaka5552]

Looking good out there, how did you your city fair through that horrible storm? Hope and pray things are good🌺🍍🙏🌴✝️🇺🇸🤙🏽

[@BrushCommando]

Thank you Margaret! We were fortunate to only receive a few inches of rain. -Brian

[@mikefisher1231]

I hope them beavers don’t screw up Chris’s work or where you going to take care of them?

[@BrushCommando]

7 have been removed and there are more in another pond to get

[@kirk467]

That grapple sure pulls those trees up, roots and all brother! 😮😮😮 Did you ever get the saw working on your grapple, Brian? Just wondering my friend!

[@BrushCommando]

@@kirk467 just working partially, the down feed cylinder for the bar may need a new seal. The attachment hasn’t been used for over a year… When I do use it, I just use it for the grapple 99% of the time anyways. -Brian

[@kirk467]

@@BrushCommando I appreciate your response my friend, take care Brian!👌🏻👍🏻

[@ratermire]

HI! i'm a fan of chris videos. Just a quick question. Chris has a super doper attachment for that kind of work maybe he will let you use it.

[@kirk467]

I apologize for being political but it’s very serious! I always enjoy watching your videos my friend!

[@Scot_WestTexas]

Did you speed the vid up any, or are you just that fast and skilled?

[@BrushCommando]

@@Scot_WestTexas just a hair at some point on the outside view, you can tell by listening to the beeper that it’s not sped up much.

[@martinfeldhoff45]

Are the problems with the saw solved? What saw is installed, maybe i could help with the blade travel.

[@BrushCommando]

Thank you. Think there’s an issue with a seal in the feed out cylinder… Not too sure really, I mainly just use it for the grapple.

[@watchthe1369]

I would suggest you and Chris team up, but I suspect it would not be an entirely good thing. Chris is a dirt moving professional. You are a ProHO who can do moneymaking projects on the side. Different set of priorities.

[@DXT61]

I must be watching too much Letsdig. I saw the beaver dam and said that looks just like the pond he was on. Then i noticed that's the Deere that cut the logs.

[@ratermire]

HI AGAIN!!! My buddies commented that the attachment your using is a tree cutter and very expensive. Is it a good idea to use it for grubbing? One other thing. We are old guys and 3 of us are hearing impaired, Chris always uses closed caption in his video. It helps to know what your saying makes watching more enjoyable.

[@BrushCommando]

Hey there! I’ll look into the CC issue, it was enabled but did not transcribe for some reason. It may be a setting, I’ll check. It is an expensive attachment, that’s all I’ve ever used for clearing and grubbing though.. Well that and a stumper. Occasionally I have to make new “finger” for it, it’s held up well over the years. -Brian

[@hydraulic-hum]

@@BrushCommando I have a feeling that KZbin put up CCs after a few days, a few videos I watch don't have them when they first get posted, but after a few days the CCs are there

[@ronaldheit196]

Absolutely fascinating watching that tree/brush terminator gripping and ripping that area clean. Sucks about your 2 drones fate. Eagles see them as prey. I'm sure that eagle was surprised it wasn't. Most likely the blades made that uncomfortably clear.

[@christopherleblanc9599]

how you make out during helen,?🥸🤓,Canada

[@BrushCommando]

We lucked out and only got a few inches of rain. Thanks for asking
