KYMRON DIGGING TEST....1 Ton Vs 3 Ton Chinese Excavators

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

This Dewalt LED light stand is amazing: amzn.to/3UwupsR

[@DanoFSmith-yc9tg]

I bought an AGT 1.8T about 6 months ago. Very similar unit to these, probably falls in the middle of these two somewhere. Its small like your 1.0T but I would assume slightly more powerful, and has a few more options, like a cab and A/C, and armrest controls. Best purchase I've made in the last decade, honestly.

[@Mr.S7R4WM4N]

You don’t know how many times in this episode I wanted to say “That’s What She Said”Lol!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Hah! I know. I noticed that when i was editing.

[@jamesscurlock1997]

great job sir, i like to the keystone girl more, i worked with many ladys who had the right touch on tactors diggers or mower

[@PurpleCollarLife]

Great test. The 1 ton does more than I expected. Those will be great wood sheds!

[@sethridenhour5]

I actually bought a XH20D today from Q&A Equipment Sales in Paducah Kentucky. Super good guys. I highly recommend them.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Awesome! Congrats. Thats a nice machine

[@JohnSmith-tv5ep]

Kyle, just a thought, (like you don't need another one !) . consider raising the roof on the smaller building now if you're gonna use it for a wood shed? It'll be easier access stacking firewood later in your life. Like I said, just a thought, ain't telling you what to do.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Yes i agree. Im always open to ideas. Both of those lean to’s are getting tore down in the future. The larger one is rotted out and oddly shaped and the smaller one was pieced together.

[@welderoo]

I’m mean the jiggle jiggle test could have been longer🤔😂😂😂

[@markbrockelman316]

Great video. Love seeing the comparison between the smaller excavator, with the narrow track width and smaller blade and counterweight as opposed to the larger excavator, with the wider track width and larger blade and counterweight.

[@jerryhammack1318]

😂😂😂 learning how to operate! ❤ ! Anyways love the healthy banter ! She does try . Blessings to you both!

[@tfudge210]

Good comparison video. It would be nice to do a trenching test with both machines to compare. Something like a 50ft long 3 ft deep trench and just compare the time it takes to do it. I’m going to the Paducah, Ky dealership next weekend to check them out. I want to thank you and Ron from Kymron for all the great content.

[@adampittman1624]

Great video on both MACHINES can’t wait to see how ur wood yard turns out and see ur great ideas on the process of making fire wood. I too burn wood to heat our house and have a smaller wood yard (wish it were bigger) buy in process of making a alittle wood bunker god bless

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thanks buddy. I have some good firewood stuff coming.

[@Beach-t5t]

Those are some big scoops! Even impressed by the Briggs RH14. The thing is all them scoops are gonna = rainwater drainage and places for water to go. We need more of this out in the desert. But id get one of these just to pay for making ur own pond, in a project like that these small "MACHINES!!!!" MACHINE will pay for themselves.

[@JupiterMoJo]

Where's your compost bin Kyle? That straw could go in there, or even substitute for mulch around any new trees you've got going. Nice machines. 👍 🍻

[@charlesboyer5712]

Love the content. You guys are naturals. If you can work in some " Spit Takes," you will be the DIY Michael Scott!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thank you! We have fun making the videos together. Wish i could get her in more of them.

[@Jtwizzle]

That 1 ton with extendable tracks would be nice. Retract them to fit through small gates then extend them once inside for stability.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Ya the extendable tracks are nice

[@mlukegrady]

I’m really interested to see how the rental of the 1 ton goes. I have a mini I have considered renting but I have been concerned about people tearing it up, being rough on it.

[@DanoFSmith-yc9tg]

7:05 Giggity giggity!

[@tman7392]

Great video nice seeing the two machines(Machine) working side-by-side. The larger machine seems by far nicer to run. I guess the smaller machine has its part to play but I’ll take the larger one any day. Nice job. Be safe on those hills especially with the narrow one. Would be easy for someone inexperienced to pull them self into that hole. Great job keep up the good work.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thank you. Ya the larger one with the diesel is pretty smooth and stable

[@tantoismailgoldstein6279]

Getting through a 36 inch gap is a sure plus in a lot of situations

Proper, healthy relationship. Well done 😂.

[@BrodieBr0]

Came for a mini-excavator review and stayed the whole video and subbed for that humor. lol You both are hilarous similar to me and my little wifey. Fun and humor always keeps things fresh and new. Loving that 3 ton machine! Thanks for the video!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thank you! The 3 ton machine will hopefully be for sale in the next month or so. Maybe sooner. Its been a great machine.

[@BrodieBr0]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC Ah thanks for the tip! Just saw your Bobcat comparison video though and While that machine is currenly out of our budget, we might just keep saving until we can afford it. Me and the wife aren't spring chickens and love the idea of having smoother digging controls and the otther bells and whistles from a name brand. Also, I'm 6'1'' and 250 pounds. My fat azz might get stuck in that Kymron. haha Once again, thanks for your honest opinions in these reviews.

[@kiotimike]

Those machines do what they're expected! Keystone hit up tanning beds ? She rocks great skin tone. Are we going to get the upgrade to kioti video soon that teaser is killing me haha. Cheers 🍻

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Hah! No tanning bed. Or makeup. Yes the upgrade will be coming soon. Ive been crazy busy lately. All my bigger projects are getting pushed off.

[@kiotimike]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC That's understandable! You know I like to bug you bout that dusty kioti haha.

I can’t wait till kymron makes bigger skid steers that we can sit inside

7:07 I bet no one knows what color hat she has on… 😂😂

[@MarkTheCreator]

I really appreciate the comparison (you helped me rule out the little one still stuck between the 20 and the 26 series diesels 😂)

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

They have a 22 also. Pretty nice machine. I think it weighs around 4200lbs

[@Deputydog-xk5jl]

Do they have a jackhammer attachment for that 3 ton unit? Our property is pretty rocky…that’s about the perfect size if so…thanks for the video sir!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

I believe they do. I think they may have a video with the jackhammer on the K&R channel. I have a link in the description

[@Deputydog-xk5jl]

Thx sir

[@jtmotoman]

Haha 😂 he zoomed in.

[@OneEyeCustoms]

At 7:00 I went to full screen.😊😊

[@kmorrow63]

Dang it! every time I see one of these videos I want a mini excavator even more!

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Pretty nice to have. Big time saver

[@kevin9c1]

Seems like you want the heaviest excavator you can afford, and still tow with your rig. Unless you specifically need the small size of the 1 ton unit.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Thats what i want for sure. The 1 ton is going to get rented out. And the 3 ton will be used on the property and maybe some small jobs.

[@traxxasrcfun]

Absolutely. Tonnage is king

[@CrowWood.MetalWorks]

Hey Spicer what video editor/creator do you use to edit. thanks man

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

[@sideview79]

Keystone girl 🤩🤩

[@JamesThomas-dn6hz]

Oh man, digging from the top side of the hill was making me nervous!

[@jerryaymond3733]

Also, the bigger mini excavators the more bigger size needs a bigger trailer to pull it and something is bigger trailers. You need a CDL to hold the black one right there. You can just use your pick up truck to pull around and put it in the back of your pick up truck almost

[@siriustraveler7083]

Subscribed at jiggley 😂❤

[@oby-1607]

I suggest two frames when showing the mini-ex working. On one side the machine digging and the other side a jiggle cam.

Thanks John. We’ve had some good momentum here lately.

[@Innovativetreeandlandscape]

What’s the size of bucket difference?

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

The 1ton has a 16” bucket and the 3 ton has an 18” bucket. More volume too

[@mauddib5666]

What else can you do with this excavator around the homestead?

[@keystoneridge]

I know both machines have low hours, but any issues with the track tension/tracks derailing? Thx

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Everything has been good. I did have the track on the 3 ton come off when i was working by the pond. I have that in a video. I ran over the edge of a stump and it shoved it off. Otherwise all good

[@ltsky311]

when will the inground pool series start =)

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Hah i wish. We did get a hot tub when we bought the house. Needs some work but hoping to get that in this year

It looks like the bigger machine digs better, deeper holes faster. Hmmm.

So useful ! Thank you !

[@kylehathcock9657]

Do you have any problem with the small one running to hot or over heating problem. Seems like there is not a lot of air flow. Thanks.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

I havent had any issues with mine. I dont run it at full throttle which probably helps too. I think kymron started putting oil coolers on them now.

[@allanj4576]

First time I’ve seen an excavator with a sandwich maker in it.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Haha! Well you can see why

[@jtsokiehobbyandadventures6666]

It not a comparison from 1 ton to 3ton. More you spend the faster you get job done. The cheaper on is going to take longer. But look at price differences

[@ResidentialContracting]

You think that one ton could demo a mobile home?

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Not ideal but not impossible. Might be dangerous with the lack of reach.

[@ResidentialContracting]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC what’s the minimum you’d recommend. Just thinking about the tight spaces on mobile home parks.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

@user-qs2xd6cx3c the 26d that i have would be a good size. Had retractable tracks too which helps a bit for narrow spaces. Still probably not ideal but it could get the job done. I think

[@ResidentialContracting]

@@SpicerDesignsLLC Last question; what do you think would be the ideal size then?

The machines need seat belts before you get thrown out and squashed.

Buy American.

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

None of the mini excavators are made in America. Ill bet most of what you own is made in China.

[@johndorazio3759]

Thanks for giving your money to China you know they sell Bobcats that are made in America you can buy here
