Driveway To The Crawl Space Is Finished

[@chargermopar]

I don't think I have seen anyone besides you use an excavator as a grader. Quite a bit of material was moved to make that driveway possible. One giant open space with not a tree in sight. Excellent work as always!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

I use the excavator a lot for various jobs. I don’t have the money for other machines so I try to get the most out of them. Appreciate you watching

[@tristardiggin]

Sweeeeeeeeet little, wait, BIG DADDY road. Very nice work as always!!!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thanks buddy! 😁

[@brunomckay1875]

Brandon great job as usual, mate I was a little disheartened the other day when you were explaining the amount of work that is required post production and the fact that it takes a great deal of your time, to pump out the videos regularly. I can assure you that they are greatly appreciated and always get played by me as soon as I see an upload. I am a retired contractor, in my prime I was maybe a four to five man band with never enough equipment, but we got the jobs done. I am now incapacitated to a great degree and take great enjoyment out of watching others, especially younger folk, coming through and bashing a piece of shitty old ground into a usable space for whatever purpose. Those projects will stand the test of time and be appreciated by many generations, indeed you will be able to show your own Grand Children in years to come what Grandad used to do for a living. God Bless, stay safe for you Mrs Elite and the soon to be shovel hand. Take Care.

I really appreciate the kind words and the support. I have a lot of great subscribers like you that make it worth while to make the videos. I really enjoy the comments and interacting with everyone. I’ll definitely keep making them. That’s cool 3-4 man crew is good size able to get a lot done. Thanks again for watching and take care

[@joshandicoechea6770]

Well that turned out nice great job man thanks for the video👍🏻

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! Appreciate you watching

[@sonnyblazer5504]

"ON THE ROAD AGAIN"! With that road SO bumpy, you tailgated that stone VERY WELL. NICE spreading with that BIG BUCKET TOO; Push the stone, Pull it back - COOL! Does it know it's NOT a DOZER but sure handles enough of the work of having one (this project & many others!) SWEET job buddy - BRANDON!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! Lol it’s like a dozer 😁 it definitely gets the job done. Appreciate you watching

Alot of gravel, looks good and nice drone footage 👍. Have a great day

The only roller you need, a loaded dump truck. 👍👍

[@eliteearthworksllc]

That’s right 😁

[@blackdogexcavator21]

Well, that driveway shouldn't ever get soft. I think that's the most rock I've ever seen go on a driveway that length. It sure looked good when you were done though.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Lol yeah it was a lot of rock for sure! It better be solid enough for the concrete trucks 😁

[@sparky178]

Tailgating around a curve, impressive! I think you just earned your degree in tailgating 😆🎓🎓

Man, it's a shame all that awesome work you done, and the concrete trucks etc. going to tear it all up. Take care my friend stay safe and God bless.

Nice job, as stated before, do it right the first time and you did as always. Putting in a 14 by 22 pad for a shed for my next door neighbor (drive to work is 5 minutes), he thought 1 to 2 inches of stone. I said no, 3 to 4 inches of 2 compacted then 4 to 6 of 73's packed and level,doing it the right way, Brandon's way. Sorry for rambling, stay safe.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

That’s right! That will be a nice solid pad for sure. 👍🏻

[@dansevern3291]

That is a solid base, nice job, and nice work with your 2150 "exca-dozer" there spreading rock. Didn't know that thing would push that well! (Although I guess I should have, since I think it probably weighs twice as much as my little dozer.) Looks like good solid road, (but either concrete truck drivers are better there than here, or you have less faith in their ability to get stuck. I think a couple of the ones I've seen could get stuck on a paved road.😉)

[@eliteearthworksllc]

It pushes better than I thought it would. I like that exca-dozer 🤣. Oh yes our concrete truck drivers are the same way. Appreciate you watching

[@tedohio3038]

Sometimes I watch your KZbin video on KZbin’s streaming channel and there is no provision for comments. So this is a little late. There is nothing wrong with the format or sound on your videos. That is some driveway you built, lot of work. Be interesting to see how it lasts during construction. Nice series of videos. Like that new bucket.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! Yes I’m curious how it will hold up too. Time will tell. Appreciate you watching

[@kennymysak2079]

Driveway turned out really good. Good one to get more use to tailgating. Should of had the beautiful CEO Mrs Elite help you out. Keep up the great videos

A lot of rock! lol

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Yes it was!

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

That’s a whole limestone cliff! Goodness, if that driveway sinks there’s not a prayer for any of them! I liked those drone shots… did you record sound through the drone? Or just synch it from another camera? The crawl space looked like a pond in the drone shots. There’s a fair amount of water in it. I was betting the loader would make an appearance after the last video. It sure makes spreading and finishing look a lot easier. We had 1 3/4” of rain on Friday night. These two days of sun and wind really dried it out. I hope it didn’t swamp you out.

[@sonnyblazer5504]

Want me to send you a couple UMBRELLAS? HEY, just thought of it. We had a DISC JOCKEY (back in the day) who closed his programs with, "Let a Smile Be Your Umbrella - Don't Get a Mouthful of Rain"!

@@sonnyblazer5504 LOL… it does work if you’re thirsty though!
