Haulin' 140 Tons of Rock: Mack Granite in Action!

[@MikeGetsItDone]

When the track cam started moving, the faithful among us said "hang on, we're goin' over!" LOL

[@klsc8510]

Capt'n Kleeman and the Tri-Axle Enterprise. To boldly go where no tri-axle has gone before! Sorry, I couldn't resist!

[@chetthejet3896]

Another good laugh thanks.

[@thatdave86]

Waiting for them ,you can back better than DP after his camp site backing escapades according to the comments on his video. I think the Case 140 likes you,you seem to be a kind to machine operator.

[@everestyeti]

Excellent bit of reversing, always like it when lorry drivers have a go instead of not trying. I was taught by an old lorry driver whose motto was, give it a go you'll never know your limitations if you you don't. I see so many lorry drivers today, who look like they only like driving in straight lines and need a space the size of a football pitch (soccer in America ) when they reverse. And if it's on the wrong side, god forbid. Look forward to you laying rock on the roads, don't forget your camber. 👍

[@johnbeck845]

Needed me some positivity this morning. Thanks buddy!💪🇺🇸

[@johnb.2936]

Mr. Excavator Kleeman! Mike of all trades. Your resume of skills always impress me. You didn't even run over anybody while backing up the dump truck.

[@chetthejet3896]

Very good Funny!

[@warrenmichael918]

well, he does have the ability to edit these, so were not 100% sure he didnt back over anyone! LOL

[@redbloodedamerican7130]

Cap, thanks for showing all the beautiful views i love it!!! 👍🇺🇸

[@ryanpippin1283]

Love your videos bro. I love to see when you drop. Keep em coming. STAY SAFE!!!!

[@jafo9346]

Captain, your videos -- without question -- inspire. Thank you, brother.

[@BFT88]

This was a good one Mike. Can’t wait to see you work on that 555 a little more!

[@AaronTheViking250]

you're ah great example of a man who doesn't brag about your skills but simply shows your skills and how good u are with those skills u lead by example and by simply doing it witch i have a big respect for.

[@joycefuller9177]

Great to have a video when I get up in the morning.😊

[@michaelmcclure8673]

Looking good Captain 😊

[@terryrogers1025]

Nice haul day, got a lot accomplished in the day. That will make a pretty nice parking lot when it is all said and done, thanks for the ride along, enjoyed watching.

[@charleswelch249]

I'm glad you are good friends with Mike. He's helped you a lot with equipment and getting you the experience to tackle the projects you've been working on. Great video, Mike, and I can't wait for the next update.

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Captain great video, your projects are getting done! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

[@jamesbergfeld5923]

The views from there are just amazing. I have to get down and see for myself. Thank you for sharing.

[@danielashford2430]

Thanks Mike,peace brother…

[@genesispuredeaf2390]

Thx for the raised garden update and allowing us to see the BTS on your base building for when your future dirt moving project gets going. The 555 looked a bit more nimble without the backhoe bucket and good tire pressure …the luxury seat is definitely an upgrade over a 5 gallon bucket or an apple crate …sorry, tuff luv (or actually brotherly affection) just slips out sometimes.

[@davehillier4827]

Just keep plugging away bud you know you'll get there 👍

[@jafo9346]

Most excellent photography per usual. Especially, "in the pit"cam and "on the track" cam.

[@chrishelms1967]

Just like the old days of your videos......just with newer equipment and no mirrors were harmed.

[@edwardbarks8989]

Just what I was going to say. No mirrors where damaged in the making of this video.

[@martineastburn3679]

That looks like Iron rich micro-Silicon oxide chert. Nice stuff. At least it isn't blue or yellow. All sorts of color based on extra elements.

[@GeorgeBridge-j2y]

Great videos as always and nice to see how Matt is getting on with his project and dirt perfect with his equipment he gets 👍

[@Andrew-ky8oc8cq4n]

I really enjoy his interesting camera points.

[@Bman2020]

Busy busy you are it’s Been a minute since you where a trucker haven’t lost your touch your pond looks awesome 👍👋🇨🇦

[@waltermattson5566]

It is always nice to see the river and the sunsets. I hope your dump truck is back in action sometime without much work to get it going.

[@randycook4364]

My insurance agent recommends I up it whenever I watch this channel. ha ha Love this stuff, keep it going, one small bite at a time.

[@AquaPeet]

The track cam and thumb cam were awesome :D

[@rhondasweeney7271]

Awesome video! Lots of chirt moved. Thank you for sharing!

[@miker1448]

Thanks for sharing Capt'n!

[@alanjacobson6673]

Your camera records unbelievable clear pictures

[@jaymepaxton797]

Oh Mr. Kleeman what about the mention of showing us the Ohio River often, I think our dues goes to Matt!👍 I hope most of us Subscribers agree!😅 Great work on your projects!

[@leer-winnobbeefarms2131]

That chirt rock seems like it packs beautifully! The tire marks as you came up out of the pond showed a great deal of firmness! Great video and more to come. Saw Mike's drone in the air. Thanks Mike! Lee

[@jerryc3050]

You almost speared me...twice!😮But still, it was a great video seeing the mbts 😎👌

[@Hoverton-vd7nw]

I remember when I was a teenager, we had an old diesel Ford tractor that we fought with for close to 10 years probably. I remember the sound of that tractor engine turning over with a hot battery and it sounded exactly like yours. They moved away after my dads place of employment closed down and a couple of years later they decided to sell the house and auction the equipment off. Well as luck would have it the starter let the smoke out while moving implements for the auction. Bought a reman starter for it and the engine spun over about twice as fast and to my amazement fired off without starting fluid or jumper cables for the first time that I could remember since we bought the place. might not be the starter but sure brings back memories of curse words and the occasional kick or two. lol

[@garymessina1609]

DP hates being a truck driver so it's great to keep your hand in great video thanks Mike good job by the way

[@tbix1963]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. If the load count seems a little light it’s probably because you were hauling legal loads vs the requested DP loads. From DP’s last video he was kinda amazed how much power the tri-axel has hauling stone when it’s measured out at the stone supplier vs his estimate. Always thought estimating random piles of dirt was one of DP’s super powers. Recently saw an add for a phone app that calculates the volume of a pile of dirt by simply recording a video of the piles perimeter with the phone camera while walking around the pile. Some how calculates and creates a 3D cartography style drawing of the pile from the visual input and then calculates the volume of the rendered image. Very cool if it actually works correctly. Maybe DP needs a version that he can record the before and after pictures of where he’s digging from and the calculates how much he took away and put in the truck. Probably simpler to put a load cell in the truck bed. After saying all that nonsense I’d like to say the raised bed garden looks great. Wishing you and your family the best.

[@brucehuff5566]

That was a productive day at work. It's been a while since we have seen that awesome view from the chat pit. Stay safe

[@terryfromsouthcarolina4601]

I rather enjoyed the "different" view from the track. Matches my life most of the time. Upside down. Cheers Terry

[@kirk467]

Take care Mike!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙋🏼👏🏻💯💯💯

[@fransinyard891]

Good morning sunshine! I love the sound of excitement in your voice! Awesome video! Much love and respect from Henderson Ga USA

[@randydobson1863]

[@alexosborne5629]

Back in the tipper 😃 Matts' castle is coming on leaps and bounds, it is in an excellent spot ! Good to see you operating the Case, it does seem to be a well built machine 💪 You did some nifty reversing down your tracks, anyone would think you do this for a living 🤓 Enjoyed watching and listening to your 555, those new dentures are going to help you out !! I was expecting you to push us over when you nudged the tripod, turned out you were just messing with us 😂😂

[@dansevern3291]

Well, that's a lot of loads in one day, and I was glad to get the ride on the inside of the track pad, guess I was kind of missing the weird camera angles from a couple of years ago. Thanks for the video, take care.

[@gakrazykajun]

Kleeman Khronikles kontinue.....chirt on bruthu! Positive progress on the homestead and careful driving with the triaxle. Great channel....great content.

[@royceblack8825]

I dont know if you will get this a tidbit fron the Jetsons Spacely Yelling KLEEEMAN

[@gslope1]

I always look forward to the videos. I remain most impressed (mechanically) with how you brought that back to life. And I know impressing me is why you did it (🙃).

[@clarencewiles963]

Short day and long on work to go! But looking forward to seeing the next one ☝️

[@garulusglandarius6126]

Excellent video as always Mike and specifically your filming ( ie undercarriage, in cab and various other shots ) are making for way improved videos. Really appreciate the extra efforts as I’m sure they’re time consuming , I’ve watched literally every video on both your channels and you’ve clearly made a lot of effort to improve improve improve……… and you NEVER disappoint my friend 👍 Best wishes to you and your beautiful family, from Britain 👍👍🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@brentjensen85]

I think you guys should put a list together of your and your associates rentals. I’m sure people would love to patronize them! I would.

[@roberthill6393]

Good morning Mike

[@jeffreylocke8808]

I help you. You help me. You can use the equipment. Yep that works!

[@HogshooterHotrods]

Keep on truckin man, progress looks very nice, you are driving a tri-axle on those trails you broke!!

[@johnkanaly1242]

👍👏

[@kevinfrerichs8589]

You should have changed the controls on the 140 for DP, nice prank. And now I know how Mr. Millennial's pool turned out. LOL

[@kirk467]

When Mike is loading chertrock, he leaves a step so he can get back up to the machine for every load out! lol he was saying that the other day!

[@gdismine01]

Hey Mike, what ever happened with your brothers hunting camp site? Just curious. It looked promising but haven't heard anything since. Thanks again.

[@CaptainKleeman]

It's golden. He's got a camper out there. He had some luck hunting last year. Turned into a really nice place.

[@2-STROKEFUN]

Jack of all trades, master of none Still always better, than a master of one 😂

[@johnunsicker7440]

The mirrors are still on, so you are good.

[@jimhancock5047]

I could use some fill dirt as well but it would be a bit of a drive! Hope Wade post some new vids!

[@stevenlatham4397]

The backhoe looks so awesome with teeth.

[@garymeyers-k3r]

Chert sure pack nice. ( when dry )

[@ralfdahms1035]

Spreading instant coffee 🤔😂

[@garymeyers-k3r]

D.P. makes sure to carve steps down to the truck.

[@fhuber7507]

Drill for the bolts between teeth in the tooth bar and put in those in addition to the cap heads and you probably don't need to weld the bar in. Occasionally its nice to have the smooth bucket. An hour to pull the bar once every couple of years... cheaper than a second bucket.

[@jameskaufmann4260]

Dude, you almost poked my eye out! Please be more careful in the future. Keep up the great work! Are you on a city fire department or more of a small town? Thanks for being a fireman!

[@americanpatriot2.06]

8:09 Recently saw the sidewalk/ramp pour the other day on Matt's channel when they poured the ICF pool walls. Wasn't expecting a full concrete pad! The surprise changes just keep on coming! Edit: My mistake. The concrete pad is by the pool. I initially thought that was over there by the sidewalk and ramp. The pool looks pretty good!

[@royceblack8825]

Mike would rename you Cpt Crash if you fell into the back of the truck

[@2wwwilly]

Haul it home n make bricks ,Mike 😅😅

[@doritleis2773]

Captain as Driver from 140 Tons of Red Granite! Self Load with a Excavator , Drive to the Resting Place to unload and the next Drive. The unload on Different Place. A Workday how You much have to work. 👍

[@mikestrand3747]

Will look great when ya get the 755 and polish it all up

[@daleerhardt1799]

Goodmorning Mike! That's a very smooth looking machine! Was it hard to adjust to the lack of the " floating/self leveling " bucket pin mod that the rest of the equipment has? 😂 I remember jumping into my first brand new tractor and had to re learn how to shift without all of the slop and worn out parts hahaha! Have a good one!

[@motor2of7]

That tri-axle isn’t sexy, but it sure is capable.

[@kaboom4679]

That stuff looks like it would make awesome bricks if you screened out the rock first . And yes , the fastest way to find all the traffic in the world is to have to back in or out of somewhere . For added difficulty and enhanced traffic , have flashing yellow lights . Someone should do a study on the curious attraction of pedestrians in a parking lot , to back up lights .

[@mikeludwig4315]

Love the comment that you would have to rent the 210, but since DP doesn't own the 140 it's free rent.

[@michaelmullins1290]

I think Matt says, noice, or something like that. Possible brake light busted at some point. Probably Aaron did it!

[@ChrisBalser-pd1lv]

That dump truck is a tank I've seen dirt perfect take that thing into some spots lol

[@fluffyashes]

Can't rent NYA's place cause I gotta save $ for a boat themed rental whenever that may be ready 😊

[@mrsamzero1]

Love to watch your channel. I must ask, why no seat belts?

[@BBWA100]

Hi Mike, is that Logger Wade's place where your getting the chert from? Cheers from down under🇦🇺👍

[@tugboat2739]

Howdy Captain

[@Bentwrench28]

So you could bring me 3 or 4 loads while you’re hauling 😁

[@smudger797]

[@user-x2z6r]

Hello Mike What's the latest on the dump truck build?

[@Michael_CS615]

No damage? A first???

[@mikewolfe386]

[@10rcoleman]

I hope he asked you to dump like that lol

[@gregorycook9991]
