Finishing Up The Road Through The Woods And Starting A Fire

[@Vickie-Bligh]

There is a reason customers ask you back, over and over: the quality of work you provide. It's looking awesome, Chris. Thanks for sharing with us all. I've noticed that since you got your haul truck, you've been able to take on much larger jobs. It's good for your business, and great fun for us to watch.

[@kengoss6878]

Yep ! Coffee in the morning and Cris Videos in the evening. Ah-h-h, what a life !

[@stevenmarsh5158]

Barney has been one of the best investments you have made. And that is going to be a gorgeous driveway for sure

[@kevinmurray7135]

For sure Barney was a darn good investment he has done a lot for your projects and made taking care of cleaning up jobs rather easy and this job is looking great so far nicely done Chris 👍😎🇺🇸 NY

[@Jeffrey-ed8sz]

Chris is no doubt the finest grading contractor in the Carolinas. Good work Chris 😊 Thanks for representing the Southern Craftsmanship so everyone knows, southern boys do it right the first time❤.❤❤❤❤❤

[@craigwavra3495]

Have to agree with you Chris, that truck has paid for itself many times over. You have taken good care of it!!

[@kengoss6878]

The building lots are nice and the borderline rear road just inside the trees is a beautiful little drive. It looks as though your are deep in the woods but you're really not. That is a very pretty and peaceful area back there.

[@markpashia7067]

Amazing amount of work done in a week or two. Little jobs scattered around but when you really look at it, very productive time. Clearing those roads through the woods with no room to work are a pain, but if you bid it right and don't lose money it is just work and does not really matter. Gitter Done.

[@thomasthompson8630]

WOW!!! It’s been a long time since this much work got done at the Bealy compound. 🎊👍keep up the good work!!!

[@Machines-TV]

Nice work thank for sharing

[@bobferranti5222]

You're a master at organization, you always know how to set the equipment for maximum time savings. That dirt looks more like talcum powder now. I hope you're blowing out the air filters often.

[@DanielGouldingnavy]

My first thought on seeing that old tire coming out from under the blade was, It ain't a balloon but it still held air at one time.

[@chrisjeffers849]

How come you never film you chainsawing the trees

[@46rambo49]

you know Chris is a TRUE professional by the fact that his dash isn't full of trash, papers, lunch bags and various other piles of crap. I learned that early in the Construction trades as a guage for professionalism

[@george8873]

The truck was a great find Chris, especially since you said you bought it sight unseen. Sure, you had to put a little work into it to get it where it's at now, but it's been a great piece of equipment for you. Has made your jobs easier to do.

[@Lazzar1958]

If Chris should ever decide to sell any of his equipment to upgrade, the next owner can be sure it's been well maintained!

[@kenore4003]

The haul truck has taken over so much I can't remember what he used before.

[@Lazzar1958]

I don't recall him doing much hauling for himself. But when working with his Uncle John, John did the hauling.

[@dennis2376]

Thank you and have a great day.

[@nickchannel5364]

I hope you have a relaxing weekend Chris. You deserve it.

[@terryrogers1025]

Looks nice Chris, shaping up into a sweet project. As always, thanks for the update sir.

[@michaelmullins1290]

Tools are what you work with. Barney is slightly bigger than a hammer, but it's sure done the trick. It's nice to see your continued success.

[@assassinlexx1993]

Hope you have a great weekend. Other than pulling levers on some machine. Give a treat to Winston for all of us.

[@donnaflanagan6612]

Always a good day when you get some burning done😊

[@shepherdcare1]

Maybe one day as you are working, you can share how you got started working with heavy equipment, etc. Great work!

[@dennisward1361]

My hero // letsdig18. Thanks for the memories . God bless .

[@johnblecker4206]

Nice amount of work for a rainy day.

[@AncientHermit]

Doubtless that must have been tedious work in places, but a very productive day for all that. Looking good Chris. Hope you have a good weekend, I will be keen to see where this goes next. Be well.😉

[@bosshogg3548]

Job well done 👍🏻

[@ronpeacock9939]

I hope you have a good weekend. Getting away is always a nice thing to do…

[@andytaylor3098]

your the man chris way to go super to watch thanks

[@brucehuff5566]

Looks amazing. Stay safe

[@jwilliams5107]

When I started clearing some of my land I found it amazing how much debris there is. It's like trees are ten times bigger when they're on the ground. Every place I had to get rid of the stuff filled up quickly.

[@michaelholden5131]

Barney sure takes a lot of strain off of tracking with those excavators. Great addition to the stable.

[@BeytekinConstructionMachinery]

Chilled-out work day! 🍧🍻

[@jjMcCartan9686]

A toast to barney 🍾🍻 & may he stay true & reliable through the hottest summers & wettest winters for years to come .😊

[@garymessina1609]

Great job looks awesome from my point of view great video thanks Chris

[@qrptedmac]

As Clint Eastwood said, nothing like a good piece of hickory.

[@mygrammieis]

Awesome thanks for sharing this

[@warrenjohnknight.9831]

The hickey timber is definitely good for making cricket bat's, 😊

[@kengoss6878]

All Geoff needs now is a high-rise steel suspension bridge from the dock to the island to allow those Trans-Atlantic Cargo Container Ships passage. 😃😃😃

[@jjMcCartan9686]

Lol 😂😂

[@beefy1212]

Chris love your videos they are just great to have on in the background while working… Sorry if this has been asked before, but when you clear out these trees and basically put them in a burn pile, is there no firewoood company that would come in for the logs or a landscaping materials company to mulch and sell it? My state is more difficult to burn, and the materials are likely more valuable to sell. Is this simply not viable in your area or too small for a company to come recover the wood for profit? TIA

[@RichardBirchfield-y3p]

Love to watch your videos. You aer a very good operator I love to spend some time with you and work with you. I love to operate a dozer or scraper. God bless 🙏

[@johnroberts8475]

The house lots and the road to them couldn't look any better Chris, it's turned out really nice back there. 👌

[@joejohnson7097]

A lot done by yourself in week thanks for the video

[@keithdunlap2701]

Coming on along Man !! Shaping up a little at a time there... Looking good !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!

[@anthonyspencer9151]

always fun watching you do your job you move a lot of dirt in a week and build ponds are very interesting to find out what need to be done to build a pond or lake LOL

[@johncates5081]

Nice

[@mischef18]

Nice to see a camp fire at the end of the video bro, more piles to do but it's coming along well bro. Safe travels. Ken

[@turtlebean78]

Let's Go!

[@benhaylock]

Haven't had any good rain other than drizzle and a light shower or two since around April. I can appreciate some decent rain. A few days worth would be heavenly.

[@domangst8232]

I just love watching you work so skillfully

[@cliff4695]

Watching all that hickory hit the burn pile brought a tear to my eye. Ive got 2,500 sqft of hickory flooring and all of my cabinets and trim are hickory as well. I won't tell you how much I spent on all that, but it was not cheap at all. Some of the most expensive wood out there

[@tomswindler64]

Great video,you killed it.👍👍👍😎😎😎

[@melissareynolds8691]

❤❤❤ Thank you!

[@rubywarrior1]

smash a wasp nest or yeller jacket nest? walk calmly, dont run. then apply white vinegar to a paper towel and place on sting. the vinegar counteracts the poison. it works great.

[@peterouellette3874]

Nice going, Chris

[@Lazzar1958]

Thought you blew a tire on the dozer for a second! 😆

[@AP-pv1pu]

Chris, Why bury the ashes every time? We have hay fields where we cleared 40 acres 30 years ago and those burn pile areas produce the greenest, thickest hay year after year.

[@mattwisniewski4896]

A little rain shower great day for a nice fire

[@benchipley]

I wish I was close enough to get some of that Hickory wood. That’s the best for grilling steaks. 🥩🥩🥩

[@scottburk4083]

Have a great weekend Chris!!!

[@kensmith8832]

If anyone wants to make a hickory cane, this is the best time of year to cut the tree down, split the log into quarters, and bend the hoop. Be sure to not let the wood dry out before you bend it.

[@glennspreeman1634]

Not only a great asset, off-road truck is about a game changer, from impossible to just another job! Seems to be made of "unbreakumem".

[@tomthompson489]

Have a awesome weekend

[@StevenRitchey]

Just curious, when you built the 5 acre pond, you had jeff driving the haul truck one day. Have you taught him how to use any other equipment?

[@kenore4003]

He took a shot at digging out and dropping a tree once. Vertical learning curve.

[@davidmays5231]

Running to the truck away from the bees....Like so😊

[@dylan8285]

Man wish I could take some of the hickory for firewood that stuff is the best for cooking or smoking with

[@rickallen9382]

The roads thru the woods are nice

[@pennyneal2456]

Chris, do you could ask Geoff if he would use his magic marker to point out what you been doing? Sometimes I can follow along by figuring out where you not always. Those ribbons are not easy to see for most of us either. Appreciate muchly.

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Make them Volvos work Son!! Hope you're doing good buddy!!!

[@bobkohl6779]

C4 works wonders on hard trees! 😀

[@kenore4003]

Jamie from Mythbusters " When in doubt. C4"

[@highkicker11]

hickory is also a very nice smoking wood to smoke food with

[@jimcooney9019]

cool video of things for sharing

[@csnelling4]

Thanks Chris , a nice video ☺️👍🍺

[@randy6650]

Enjoyed watching the video Chris 😊

[@martymclamb5750]

Nice work Chris

[@franklinforrest8464]

It amazes me how you don’t burn up hydraulic lines restocking that flaming fiery pile.

[@NeilMaclachlan]

Making great progress...Roads looking good...more trees done...Stay safe

[@johnbulla8708]

BEALEY GOOD FARM HAS TURN INTO MORE WORK THEN EXPECT. LOOKING AT THE BRIGHT SIDE OF IT UR WORKING MAKING MONEY A LIVING & MAKING HIM HAPPY

[@andywilson2779]

My wife, who occasionally watches over my shoulder, just said..."where there's smoke, there's Chris.

[@markpashia7067]

Oops she figured it out.

[@donnamullins2089]

Like the way the two roads are private right now. Where did the dozer find a tire? Fast burning fire.

[@BealyGood]

Can’t wait to see it 😊

[@thomasleonard1846]

LetsDig18! And grade also!😊

[@timothyirish4590]

You just can't beat Volvo machines in the right operators hands

[@bruceduncan9065]

How do you manage to keep your equipment so nice and clean ?😊

[@danimalx23]

Water probably :D

[@Dontworryboutit315]

People might think you’re abusing that haul truck by loading it so full, but I don’t think they realized what it was made for. They’re made to run 24/7 in whatever conditions, this is a good retirement for Barney.

[@asarand]

First, those trucks were designed for jobs like hauling ore out of strip mines. I'm pretty sure that a truck load of ore is considerably heavier than what he is carrying. Second, on most of the jobs those trucks do they are traveling a considerable distance with a full load. He is not traveling very far at all with the loads that he is carrying. With these two things in consideration, I don't think anyone should be considering the truck overloaded at any time.

[@Dontworryboutit315]

@@asarand you said it better than I could! There’s always a couple comments throughout the videos

[@markpashia7067]

Those who think that need to watch DP and see how he loads his Bubba Dump. I've seen it where you could not see any of the truck except the front tires with trees hanging over all sides and dragging the ground behind while Matt drives two fields away to dump in a ditch somewhere. Had to look like a big green turtle from the air. Half the time he does not cut the stumps off or cut the trees up. Just pile them on there hanging over the cab and sticking out sixteen foot behind the bed. Chris is easy on Barney.

[@garymurt9112]

The hardest way to treat a haul truck is a lack of maintenance

[@cliffscott2816]

Will the two new lot owners have acces to the pond for recreational purposes?

[@jcbohls]

Would you do an aerial update and show how the two lots are accessed from the CR?

[@markpashia7067]

Ask Bealy for that he loves to do drone maps.

[@juanwaller1942]

We have a lot of rain in Michigan if you need some lol

[@jimdaly5077]

Hi I see you had an old Tyre, would that be a retired balloon? 🙃👍🐝🌞

[@clifforddgreen1296]

Chris, I was just wondering after you get that bucket and the thumb as hot as you do in the fires you do go back and put extra grease back in those don't you because that. grease will get hot enough to actually run out😂

[@BrokenanklesFPV]

boy lately chris sure been messing with the bee's an hornets

[@richardellis3141]

just like the balloons,,,, the random tire,,,,,, land clearing,,,

[@jeff-hk8yk]

I see you throwing those Hickory logs into the burn pile - can I salvage those out of the burn pile? - I can use my come-along to pull them onto my trailer - I can make some hickory rockers to supplement my social security - this Bidenomics is killing me slowly.

[@MySORRELL]

THANKS!

[@davemuir5926]

In our next episode Chris shows us how to removed melted hydraulic hoses and replace with new AMI Letsdig18 fireproof hoses 🤣🤣🤣

[@godsmack113]

You should have filmed the yellow jacket nest

[@JohnShalamskas]

LOL! But the yellowjackets won't wait around for Chris to set up cameras.

[@doritleis2773]

It is always Interesting how You the Excavator to rule the minor Branch and Foliage to grasp You and load it. Too the Dozer Work is to Impress. The Rain is come and You can Fire, himself is first Class, never have the Looker the Feeling it is risk. A Day with much Work go to End. The Video however a Objekt of interest. 👍👌💪

[@daleallen7634]

@letsdig18 : So Chris, any balloons yet, this time around? 🙂

[@carl97ta1]

Dude: I'm doing all the same stuff with open station equipment and F those hornets....

[@dale5898]

You should cut that Hickory into night stick sized chunks and give it to woodworking Police officers. Or take it to the local prison and let the Nogoodnicks make it into nightsticks for the guards so they can give the bad guys a Hickory shampoo when they are not in compliance.

[@1964amora]

Tell the rain to come to Texas we are under a burn banned

[@tsink6]

I have never seen green wood burn like this

[@dennisgrant4766]

Burn baby burn
