Good to see you working with Andrew...anyone who can keep up with him...has the work ethic to succeed!

[@MattyDardani]

Thank you

[@rafidishak7801]

It is so good to see Andrew helping all these people who are welling to give him a hand with his mountain property and in return introduce us Andrews fans and Supporters to these new you tubers .Andrew's channel becomes like a hub and hot spot for any one welling to follow his foot steps and work ethics .that is why Andrew now is like a bench mark and leading example of how to make it big on you tube...

[@MattyDardani]

Agreed thank you for watching

[@markbrown6236]

Correct.

[@larrymills8527]

glad to see Andrew got the belt fixed on the crusher

[@tujuprojects]

Belt motor is still dancing, let’s see will it drop at some point.

[@sjv6598]

@@tujuprojects it’s hilarious watching that thing jigging about. 1/4 million dollar machine and he bodges it back together.

[@TechGorilla1987]

The make fasteners specifically for patching these conveyor belts. As long as it a straight tear or not stripped too bad, it can be patched. There is a template you drill through and the fasteners fasten clips that grip the belt. You use a driver to install fasteners and they break off flush to belt.

[@lofman]

@@tujuprojects haha also came to comment about the motor. 🙂 It adds life to the machine. 😂

[@Someguy6571]

@@sjv6598 I doubt he paid that much for that. Probably not even remotely close. This Andrew doesn't buy new stuff or even close to new stuff. The only thing he seemed to have got somewhat newer was that yuke truck, and that was after wasting seemingly a lot of money on two different older trucks. One of which he didn't care to pay attention to the problem and address it correctly which resulted in the engine going bad.

[@grt8guy03]

everyone wants a tonka set like this and Andrew is awesome for having one too

Well, that too. It is also great to see him re-purpose the natural resources to develop the properties and those of his neighbors. He does this without destroying the environment. As you can see, there are plenty of trees to be sacrificed. All is well in Camarata world. I hope he lives forever.

When I put a gravel road in, or add gravel to a road bed I always grade it with a crown about 6 to 8 inch in the middle eliminates mud puddles. when they start they just get bigger and bigger until you either regrade or add Rock. You guys got a lot done in one day.

Awesome content as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

Andrew will have one hell of a road to the high ground compound.

[@davidsnyder2000]

I really surprised at how much material that rock crusher produces. It’s like a steady stream of crushed rock coming off that conveyor belt. Seems like it would be a full time job just trying to keep up with the volume of material 😄👍

Great Job Matty and Andrew on crushing more rocks for ur road. Cody and Blue doing their supervisor work..

Andrew needs a whole fleet of those Cat track loaders. Money making machines right there

[@steveleonard3262]

They suck the fuel but they r beasts,,ran half a dozen of those. 973 was the biggest hydrostatic loader cat made when i operated but think they got a 983 after that.lot more 63s n 53s lol

[@daccuscape9729]

@@steveleonard3262 The 983 was before all the 953, 963 and 973’s. I don’t know the years the 983 was produced but it was in the era of the 955’s and 977’s. The 983 was a huge machine and is possibly still the largest production track loader ever made, I think even bigger than the 973. I’m not 100% sure about the size comparison between the 973 but the 983 was an amazing machine, it’s a shame that they stopped production decades ago

[@rgarlinyc]

Great to see your mammoth prehistoric beast back to crushing rocks again - that view from above of the gravity feed in was amazing. All the best in disintegrating your rocky hillside, AC!

[@jesseison-bowman3964]

Really cool blasting and crushing rock right there and site and using it to develop the land. Looks like fun too.

[@abikerinpa]

Thx for the video my new friend, keep the videos coming

[@MattyDardani]

I will do my best

[@jtonguam]

Love that Andrew got a crusher and is making his own gravel. One thing though. Need to back off on that hopper. Overfeeding. Let it go about 80% empty then next bucket. It'll let the grizzly fingers screen out the fines you don't want in the jaw and take some strain off the vibratory feeder. Its hard to not just stuff it full, but it'll run better in the long run.

[@MattyDardani]

It’s interesting you say that because we keep getting different people saying different things. From what I can gather you don’t want the hopper too full but you want consultant flow in the jaws so the material breaks up better. We are trying a lot of different ways to see what works best. Thank you for the advice!

[@jtonguam]

@@MattyDardani exactly. You want stone in there to take the shock of dumping the next bucket in and protect the hopper, but not so much that it absorbs the vibration from the feeder. Keep a nice even flow across the grizzly into the jaw. Mostly its a matter of timing your buckets and trial and error. Spent a lot of time feeding crushers lol.

[@MattyDardani]

Awesome, that’s what I was thinking. Thank you for the tips!

[@BB-uz6nh]

[@m.cooper1854]

[@sonnyblazer5504]

NO! Like most, I've watched from his start as well and his success reminds me of a sign in an AUTO JUNK yard I go to saying, "WHY BUY NEW WHEN USED WILL MORE THAN DO"? He bought, repaired/restored/modified & used for many years & still has them all working well with NO PAYMENT BOOK(S)!

Like the 2 "smiley" faces that cropped up around the 15min 30 sec mark with the digger driver going to get some more rock "tipped" a rock that flipped over and gave what looks like an "angry bird" character a snowy hat. Once you see it it's kinda hard to miss being just to the right of the diggers tracks.

There has been some huge progress on the mountain property. I see you guys spread almost all the blasted rock. Also good to see the crusher been fixed. I thought since the crusher was down, Andrew would halt work up there until spring.

Of the first blast there is a whole second one we haven’t started.

Sure would be handy to be able to swing the outfeed belt one way to load the truck directly then the other way to stack rock in separate pile while truck is dumped.

Wow, you have reached that stage where things are really running pretty smooth. It might be time to re evaluate your equipment fleet. Three traxcavators may be more than you need. Sell Two and recover the capital for something you can put to use.

[@HUBBABUBBADOOPYDOOP]

I made a suggestion a while ago- don't know if Andrew read it? Use those felled trees to make "bed rails" along the driveway. The stone would then build up, without so much spreading out & being wasted. No big deal, to just lay them down.

[@tomahoks]

They will rot in a jiffy. Less than ideal.

[@HUBBABUBBADOOPYDOOP]

@@tomahoks How long is a "Jiffy"? I'm not thinking permanent, just 1 log high, enough to hold the bed together when rolled or driven on. It will take years to "rot" away enough to make a difference. 1 log high.

[@terryatpi]

Look really cool too when they get all mossy and such.

[@bradoutboard8885]

You want the stone to spread out some. They hold the soil together and you will have less erosion on sloped ground. Also any type of side barrier will hold water somewhat and you definitely don't want that.

[@MattyDardani]

@@bradoutboard8885 I do like the look when people do that but I agree with you on the holding water and that has been a major issue during this project. We are putting the stone down really thick and still having issues.
