[@TheJimmybud]

If you want to be a real supervisor 1. Sneak up on the crew, preferably on the biggest piece of equipment on their blindside.2. Park your pickup where it is sure to be in the way and get ran into.3. Don't have an answer for any question about the job, they have already expected you not to have an answer, leave alone take your advice!

Hey Chet Cut a deep well socket in half and weld one to each end of a similar size pipe so the threaded rod travels through the pipe. Just make a custom deep well 👍

[@pinwizz69]

Brilliant idea Sir. Wish I'd have thought of that a few dozen or more times over the 40 years I've worked on pool tables, jukeboxes, pinball and arcade games.

[@shaneallison3370]

Only took me 5 years of putting culvert ends on to come up with that 😂. Always extra sockets around if the application is same size or make a whole set 😆

[@benfields7556]

Yeah great idea! I think Chet knows how to do that just I think more effort for that rather than just cutting it off like he did.

[@oldtireman4665]

As much as I enjoyed the harvest videos, this was a very entertaining change of pace. Still can’t wrap my head around all the capital investment in equipment you wouldn’t think would be needed for agricultural production.

[@leahmollytheblindcatnordee3586]

It is completely amazing what we do when we are young that comes to haunt us later and it usually does. Looks like your dad is doing a super job working the ditch. And it will be so much better when it is done. Oh yes, I have noticed the lovely scammers and have used my OCD tendency as well as my love of messing them up by going down the comment section and looking for the scammers (i.e. "telegram" and "you have won a prize") so that I can report them. It gives me a real glow inside to see them disappear and do something to make it a little harder for the people out there who are crooked. I know they are created by bots and I don't really do much, but still it makes me happy. We have a land line phone and are constantly getting scam calls that fuel my rage. "Hello, this is ....., is this ....., "who?" "I can't understand you", "what was that?" click. Some of you out there may know what I am talking about.

Chet the dirt work looks great 👍 you'll did good, way to operate dougo ! Nicely done !

[@pinwizz69]

It's always a hoot watching Chet and Big Swede wotking together with some Dougo thrown in. It gets down to the 20's and you won't see me outside till it hits the 70's again. And I moved to Miami from Traverse City Michigan. The only snow I wanna see is on top of a cone with raspberry syrup on it.

[@stevenkaras4562]

A typical L.F. project, well done. If every thing freezes solid, it would make a cool video hearing Doug shout, "FIRE IN THE HOLE"! For those of you who know, and you know; Doug is a man of many, many skills. Just about time to put on the bank, and have a Merry Christmas. 2023 will be interesting and entertaining.
