I believe this is the video that you were talking about.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZLKlGtmbsyYqpY

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@robh.8214]

That turtle around 35:50 was epic! Hope the little guy is ok!!!!

[@JohnShalamskas]

Smaller turtle just before that at 35:40. They move fast when there's a dozer around.

[@DLDietz]

I see Mike stopping @35:55 - I assume to rescue little guys

[@duaneleeth]

The turtle running for his life between 35:42 and 35:55 was awesome! Turned out perfect Mr Dirt Perfect!

[@DarthVader1033]

Awesome job well done DP, The new dozer works great need to add it to your fleet if you can maybe, By the way I seen a turtle around the 35.51 mark if no one seen it..

[@tiredtrailer]

The tortoise is now homeless 😅

[@kaboom4679]

He isn't homeless he still has his shell . Besides he was heading for the upper end again . He loves this epic new water slide tunnel .

[@python3574]

just a few seconds before the turtle was a rat/mouse/something that came up out of the ditch and zig-zag'd back and forth towards the camera.

[@mikehunt3222]

He was doing some scurrying to get out of the way.

[@JohnShalamskas]

@@python3574 That was a smaller turtle.

[@laceitup1]

Went back and watched the video you pinned. That land has changed a lot! As you see, I'm a newby so I've been catching up the past 6 months or so and have enjoyed every video I've watch, which is many!! I think I've become addicted🤦

[@gwbuilder5779]

What a transition. A completely different look to the entire property.🤙

[@frankh.valenzuelaabuelotej652]

Love the work you do. You make it look easy and even a layperson such as myself, can vicariously live your experience. By the way, I noticed what I believe to be a turtle (of sorts - I may be incorrectly naming the critter) scampering around to get away from the dozer's blade (around the 35:50 video footage). That was a pleasant surprise. Take care! Again, great work.

[@TennesseeMtnMan]

I saw him too

[@richardherring8220]

frankh, I must apologize brother, that was definitely a turtle, not a rabbit, I spoke before seeing it !! Apparently turtles can 'SCAMPER' when filmed on time lapse

[@flatulentguy]

good eye, i believe that was an eastern box turtle, more than likely it was hunting around the freshly turned dirt for some bugs or worms for an easy meal

[@prestonvaughn2078]

I saw it too! First a frog jumped then the turtle was headed toward the plow and changed his (her) mind.

[@prestonvaughn2078]

LOL😅

[@rogerhodges7656]

My compliments again for the time lapse and the drone footage. They make for the best channel on KZbin.

[@glennspreeman1634]

That ditch being higher than the field happens when silt drops out when it over flows. Happens with grasswaterways too. You have the waterway, then a ridge on each side and another ditch form on each side. Nice, lotta work, but working on a cure, fixing the cause, just got a lot of really potentially productive to consistently really productive land!!

[@paulprigge1209]

We see that a lot mid Midwest .

[@45Deere9500]

The waterways around here, that have ditches on each side of the ridges forming the original waterway, are because of water erosion, NOT siltation.

[@kevinmurray7135]

Man that big tile pipe has worked out nicely it really has dried up good the field is looking good for farming now you the man Mike and Jerry will be pleased with it too 👍😎🇺🇸NY

[@franksmith8184]

Beautiful job loved the wild life in the picture too.

[@SLCFarms]

With all the work you have done on farms it inspired me to have my local guy come in and clean up a couple farms for me and I feel it’s so worth the investment. Farm looks beautiful Mike and so much easier to farm. Farming today is about efficiency and that right there makes it efficient.

[@Sjanzo]

27:15 The Italian Stallion, with American roots 😄👌

[@dougyurecko6500]

Well now I know where the plastic tile will dump at. That turned out great and the 1650 seems to be a good machine. I have owed case products and ran a couple 850s and a 1155. They seemed to run out good. The different equipment you have highlighted makes the channel even more interesting. Field looks great, Farmer Chris should appreciate that and maybe a few more bushels.

[@benhamilton8132]

Thanks for sharing I appreciate all your videos

[@rockman531]

Howdy Mr. Dirt, Outstanding job!! The field looks incredible!! Did you see the turtle at 35:51?? Hope you didn't bury the little guy!! Stay safe. Thumbs up! Jim

[@klsc8510]

I saw that too. I hope the turtle was able to out run DP to safety.

[@papawheelie5835]

Saw that turtle as well as a whole bunch of smaller critters scurrying for life and limb!

[@garyargabrite1562]

I saw it to. At first I thought it was a rock rolling down, but when it changed direction. I had to rewind a couple of times to be sure of what I was seeing. 😂

[@billvandorn5332]

I saw the movement but did not catch it until you mentioned it! It was a decent size

[@paulmartin8212]

Nice before and after drone shots.

[@joemonroe3811]

The Drone shot at the end was great you did a good job on that thank you

[@robertlucht4657]

The hump you are dealing with is a natural levy. Natural levies form along streams and rivers when they have a flood stage when the water spills out of the ditch. At that point, the velocity of the water drops and coarser sediment will be deposited. Farther back from the ditch the finer sediment is spread out over a large area. Those types of deposits are called overbank deposits.. Most of the soils you are moving are actually overbank deposits from the Ohio River. The reason this seems odd to you is because most of the ditches you deal with in fields are artificial ditches that have not been there long enough to develop a natural levy. Also, most of the ditches have been cleaned out and that spoil has been spread artificially over the fields. This ditch must be a natural drainage that never was cleaned out.

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Mike you have a lot to be proud of, the finished job is beautiful! It’s amazing the support you get for your crew! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

[@pattucker612]

Jerry should be proud of you, ha ha great video. Thank you.

[@MatthewJRedmond]

Very nice job and Dozer indeed. Seems like the angle blade on the 1650M shined in this situation by speeding up the backfill process as well as doing the final grading. And also, did the turtle that was speeding around in the last time lapse survive?😂 Keep up the great work ol boy, look forward to the next one 😁👍

[@louistorcello3525]

I thought DP was working at a turtle's pace.

[@johnwudarcki9315]

I actually had to play it twice because I was like was that a turtle ? Being at the bottom of the screen it wasn’t apparent first time around

[@allensharlow7763]

Looking good Mike

[@terryrogers1025]

That does look so much better now that you have it graded out, I don’t think you could have asked for better results, I do remember the tree removal vids, you have turned that from a good piece of property to a property worth 3x’s its original value. It may be cam angle or you feathering the blade but at approximately the 19:30 and the 21:30 mark, those pins and or brackets looked as if they were loose and/ or had excessive play in them, but like I say, may have been cam angle or feathering the blade. That case is an awesome machine, especially for that project, thanks for the update young man.

[@davidhonaker8053]

You have the eye and fill for it great job

[@michaelrobbins9679]

Talk about maximum profit levels on this job! Salvaged pipe... Donated dozer... Owners property.. casual labor and Fuel costs! Nice DP!

[@KenFullman]

I'm still trying to understand what he's calling those pipes. To my ear he seems to be calling them "Tiles"

[@donanything6816]

Nice job. Loved the drone and left fender shots. Thanks for the video.

[@johnwarren-649]

You guy have made it 1000 times better than the start of it

[@steveleverett2644]

Another beautiful job. Thanks❤

[@SwedishCook1]

Thanks for sharing what your doing. That motor shot was interesting as it appeared vibration free, as it should!

[@markarmstrong2592]

Great job Mike and the crew farmer Chris will be over the moon

[@Vickie-Bligh]

The before & after shots really put it into perspective. And shows why your tile plow is so valuable. Nice job, Mike.

[@davidbrooks5441]

nice step by step way of back filling and nice looking topsoil to plant great video stay cool out there !!

[@Tony-InLosAngeles]

Incredible the difference 👍🏻

[@chrisredshaw7150]

your just an awesome operator and yes great piece of iron too

[@keithsimpson1268]

great job mike

[@rmacsrmaddog2192]

I've watched long enough not to be surprised anymore. You carry a lot of weight on your shoulders. And you seem to do it effortlessly along with great Videography. The one thing you could do better is upgrade your music library. I know it costs. That seems to be the next level in a natural progression. Great channel! ❤

[@BillW-NJ]

Middle aged ninja turtle farmer! 35:49. Field looks good. Thanks for sharing the engine and aerial views!

[@Truckdriver677]

I believe there is a nice Case machine in your future. I hope it works out for you Mike. It was nice of Case to let you demo that beast.

[@briansponenberg2341]

Farmer Chris will be so Happy that he can just run across that field now with out that ditch to hop Great work !!!

[@tomswindler64]

Dirt work turned out nice,case doing great job as are you.hopefully this will fix problems in the drainage.just continue on doing what your doing and thinking.kudos.great video,👍👍👍😎😎😎🚜🚜🚜

[@richardmiller5238]

Looks great! Chris will enjoy planting it! Fly over was 💯👌!

[@rockyevans5171]

multitasking... running a bulldozer and scratching your nose. what an operator!

[@williamwillis9691]

You need to do us a "rainy day" video Mike!! Let's see what kind of water volume is leaving through the pipe!

[@cyndikarp3368]

It's a good plan to tile & recover farming ground. Huge difference it's all going to make to farm the whole field.

[@lilredcummins]

Love the view from the 1650 blade back at the dozer. Gives a good idea of how much you are moving the blade.

[@scrappy7571]

The Case 1650 seems to move the dirt with little effort, nice and smooth.

[@ConstructionMachineryChannel]

It seems to be a good machine.

[@stevepoore2322]

Looking good Mike!

[@pcrombie501]

you got some really nice looking topsoil there in the ditch

[@jeffmentzer9186]

What an unbelievable change that field is! It looks absolutely fantastic Mike! As always thank you for bringing us along on your journey!!

[@2Moza]

:) Well done Case in getting Dirt Perfect to show Case your Dozer and what its capable of doing in the field , there is nothing better than seeing the Machines hard at work .lol

[@mooshaker]

Amazing transformation. You do good work DP

[@nashneubauer9016]

When you do your final review, it would be great to have Jerry give his input as well! Great video and a good job.

[@kenthesparky178]

I wish I could give you 100 thumbs up for this one Mike👍

[@bigdaddyhognuts9413]

That turned out really nice

It's beautiful bro I love watching what u do. Keep up the great work love you bro Big Jeff

[@benm3305]

It’s always a great day when you can spend it by yourself on a good dozer!!!

[@ballistictuna9295]

Hope that turtle at 35:45 made it ok. Good work Mike.

[@robertlacour8338]

Mike great job on the 1650 you seem to be pleased with the finishing work you can do with it. I’m impressed with how well it looks with such a big dozer. Can’t wait to see the next step with the 1650. Have a good week!

[@DMAN10]

What a huge improvement! The blade control on that beast is most impressive. When Case guy said it was made to put dirt exactly where you want it…he wasn’t kidding. Thanks for sharing DP!

[@MIKA3056]

Great Vid as Usual Mate. The Shot of looking down onto the blade from the Front of The Dozer is Fantastic Angle. Cheers

[@robinredman5192]

Mike, can't believe you were able to make it look so good when MBTS wasn't there to supervise!!😅🤣😂 Arron woulda taken the turtle home to his pond😁 You are great at what you do Dirt Perfect and we appreciate the hard work and extra effort it takes to share the videos. May you continue to be exceedingly blessed. John here, from the back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee.

[@tbix1963]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Definitely a great enhancement to your property. Loved the cameo of your field supervisor at 35:54 😂. Looking forward to seeing any future improvements you make on the property. Not sure if it’s my imagination but it seems that the Case dozer moonwalks more that the other dozers you have. Is that real, and if so is it because of the way it’s setup or is it a bit overpowered. Wishing you and your family the best.

[@JohnShalamskas]

Force of friction = coefficient of friction x downward force So the lighter dozer can't push as hard as a heavier dozer since it has less downforce. But it also won't sink out of sight like a heavier dozer, and is easier to transport.

[@charlestellus7396]

If you don’t buying you will always wish you had, I think Case makes a good product.

[@greggb1416]

Looking very nice. Great video series, Thank you sir.

[@shirleyc7175]

Looks beautiful. 👍

[@lindaleslie5634]

Awesome job…definitely a huge improvement ‼️ 🎉👏👍🙋‍♀️🇨🇱

Great video bro, gee I hope that critter with it's home on board managed to evade being buried. Safe travels. Ken.

[@ChiefsFan62]

It's nice that you have the equipment to make improvements to your own property. I'm sure Farmer Chris will be thrilled, too! It looks great!

[@gardnermiller6820]

Turned out awesome! Great job!

[@2wheelzdown180]

I like your field pet at 35:52 😂 great video , hard work pays off

[@rccole1021]

well done

[@markpashia7067]

It is funny how today is so different than when I was a kid. Back then the government was supplying support and advice on PLANTING those tree rows to break up the fields in order to stop wind and water erosion. But those were the days of plow and disc in straight lines. Ever seen a city sidewalk with trees planted in them? Trees grow and roots lift the ground even buckling concrete sidewalks. Trees and brush raise the ground but plow and disc settle the ground over time. Your ditch becomes and aqueduct up high. Great out west where you want to water the fields by flooding them. Not so much when you are trying to dry out fields. If you really want to see some big fields go to southern Alberta, Canada. Wide open uninterrupted sea of yellow from horizon to horizon this time of year. I mean those combine rows are miles long but they call them kilometers. If it is not smoky you might see the Rocky Mtns off in the far distance but that is about all. All I could think of is "where are the wind breaks?" But I guess they never got programmed to think that way. However we did have those wind driven dust storms shut down I 55 in Illinois this year right after farmers turn the fields and caused those massive pile up wrecks. Flip a coin.

[@rickallen9382]

Farmer Chris will be happy with that ditch covered . Less turning stoping etc, he can plow straight ahead now. Not to mention the water being gone

[@michaelmullins1290]

The loaner dozer was the ticket. With your skill. It looked like you did it with the D4. And a little faster. That's great for everything.

[@rudyrivera7426]

Job well done! 👌👍

[@gussaba9004]

Awesome thanks for sharing it

[@bobjacobs9521]

Mike, I see opportunities in the future for you. Not that you ever have spare time, but you are in the perfect business to flip a farm. Your area has a lot of rolling treed farms. Take one that has decent soil but has a limited number of trees that can be removed, you could buy it for recreational non productive prices and turn it into tillable acres with income to justify higher prices. Maybe a farm that is coming off a ten year Crp program with many small trees or a wet farm that needs tile. I have bought several farms and the opportunity will hit you out of nowhere, but you will be ready. Good for you and Jenna buying this farm. Ten to twenty years from now, you will be smiling that you pulled the trigger, just like now, when you have major economic improvements. Enjoy your content and banter, Thanks

[@glennspreeman1634]

Ya know you could make that 1650 permanent with enough '0's on the checkblank. Pretty sure they would all fit, maybe not. Its a great blend of finishing dozer and bulldozer.

[@nigelpickett2471]

Love a good bit of 'dozin. And that was good 'dozin

[@davidtidy4477]

Mike what you're doing now is truly brilliant to watch and to see your channel grow is a real treat. Thanks as always

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@stuartlafrancis1371]

You have a good look at the blade on the case

[@justinmartin3055]

Awesome work dp it looks amazing

[@everestyeti]

That Case sure is a nice dozer, I like how it's balanced between the power you need and the finesse of the finish you get. 👍🤗

[@lynnlutjen261]

DP you have turned this into an awesome productive farm. The 1650 looking like a good addition to your stable with mom's approval lol Keep up your great work ❤ 👍

[@garyargabrite1562]

I like the Minotaur more! It is so versatile!!!! And it has a ripper, too. 😁

[@martineastburn3679]

Now I think of it, wow. I should have thought of running a wire down the big pipe run - so it can be detected 10 years from now when ideas of where get foggy. Maybe you can lay wire on the length using your plastic pipe monster toy ! Just a thought. Looks great and what a nice job on the sky view.

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol if you can’t find that you need help

[@danslawncare8594]

Looks great Mike. Good job.

[@darrenblattner2508]

Chris will like that for sure, looks damn good. Keep Smilin

[@leer-winnobbeefarms2131]

You absolutely nailed it with: Awesome! The transformation speaks for itself! Love the 1650! Thanks Mike! Lee

[@wirenut003]

DP you make it look so easy but it is not to grade it like that-skills you have great work.

[@johnsutcliffe9965]

Not sure if any one has said it or not but you can only turn left with the disc if it’s engaged with the dirt. I have a 7ft John deer one. They work great.

[@briangoss7424]

The Case 1650M has excellent blade vision from the cab. It must be a pleasure to operate.😅

[@robertconreux8079]

One sweet machine!!!

[@heatherlane9270]

That high ditch removal looks awesome. The Case dozer is doing a great job so trust that any issues with it are minimal. The clay pipe will surely make a difference to the whole field.

[@jamesmorrisy1908]

Good job. Turned out great.

[@joeystork57]

I agree from tree removal, pipe laying, to finish is 1000% better!! Mike excellent job love to see the case equipment! My dad had 310 dozer, 310 track loader and upgraded to 350 track loader with early hydrostat. Many hrs of seat time when I was a young man! Then went to college and never had seat time again as my dad retired. Stay safe out there!!
