Man charlie has a big operation goin, pretty cool to see, he's built a nice business, reclaimers can make the most nastiest soil turned into some nice road base, they work good, thanks for sharing Chris, awesome video. 💪🇺🇸 Thanks for the tour Charlie awesome machines you have,

[@craigwavra3495]

Always enjoy a trip to Charlie’s place. He always has a plan on what he wants and does.

[@rolf_pedersen]

These are not "kids". If they can do grown-up destruction of a working man's hard-earned property, if they can pump out babies to leave on society's doorstep, if they can willfully break the law of the land, they need to be treated like, punished like, and fought back against like adults.

[@6582rg]

So true!

[@johnpollack5527]

Exactly!! Everyone of those traitors who attacked our capital under the guise of ‘election fraud’ should be treated like adults.

[@robertsimpson772]

A trip to Charlie's always makes good content. He's a character for sure.

[@ashleyyoung6683]

Where in South Carolina is Charlie located? Is he near Florence or Marion?

[@johnelliott6738]

Honestly, that was one of your most enjoyable vids you’ve put out. The stumper is awesome. Charlie must be your brother from another mother!

[@mslorry3420]

Wow Charlie needs a treasure map w GPS coordinates to keep track of all his equipment! He knows where every piece is and what if any repairs need to be done and if he has the parts already on hand. Glad you got a few hours to catch up.

[@mikeznel6048]

Man I would be in Heaven if I could come do machine repair and maintenance for Charlie. I love that type of work. Just staying busy, one project to the next.

[@HighlandSteam]

Charlie has a heart of gold. Lovely person. Great ethic on life.

[@michaelridenour8054]

Charley a great guy shame we can’t see more of his work but we all understand thanks Chris for the video

I really liked seeing Charlie's machines, especially that CAT with the stumper on it, that seems a really sweet machine?! I'd love to see that RM500 working as well. Thank you to Charlie for allowing the tour for us, and the upload.

that massive cat groundmill looks awesome - would love to see him drive over baserock with it, like leveling a granite piece of baserock by removeing it in lifts he mentioned reinforced concrete and its pretty hard to believe - i thought the steel would wrap around the drum or chip out the carbide...

Always cool to check in with Mr Charlie.This guys got more going on than accidentally that than 5 people put together 😂!

[@jeffreykbevins7116]

I really enjoyed the content in this video, about stabilizing, unstable dirt ( ground ) . And really enjoyed watching Chris dig up stumps . I would like to see more detailed work about stabilizing ground . You all be careful and stay safe and catch you all next time around . As always, Jeffrey !!!

[@milwsdl39]

First of all it’s always great to see Charlie and his new toys in acquisitions he’s a good friend and is it other people have said thank you for your time for KZbin and taking the time to put these videos out it was a lot of us look into the world of what you guys do appreciate it very much Chris again hats off to Charlie good to see him he’s doing well

[@ohhpaul7364]

It is always nice to see Charlie. He seems just way to busy to make videos anymore, I can understand. Getting some video of the stabilizer running would be awesome, I haven't ever seen any of the big ones running, just the skid steer sized ones.

[@dalecherry4044]

A lot of information in 50 minutes. Thanks. I watched a road being built through swampy land using the method of mixing the top layer. That was in the mid 70s. That road is still solid to this day. Great video.

[@Todd.Roberts]

The more I see Charlie on your videos . He seems to to be a very smart man . He has enough equipment to have 5 grading businesses

[@localcrew]

That big machine with the stumper would be just the ticket for land clearing. Matter of fact, I want one now! This whole “Soil stabilization” thing seems pretty cool.

[@nephilly87]

Charlie is such a knowledgeable guy when it comes to any kind of dirt equipment plus you can’t find a nicer guy 👍🏼

[@jasonmckee5030]

Chris, I really enjoy watching your videos with Charlie. I learn a lot that I didn't know watching your visits with Charlie. A man with get up and go he is as are you. Thanks

[@rayshutsa6690]

Thank you for another great video. I enjoyed seeing Charlies operation it is a large operation. 😀❤🇨🇦

[@neilopfer5687]

Glad to hear Charlie is doing well!! Always interesting on the equipment commentary. I just went back and looked at your older video of him with the JD 872/GPS the other day. I play this for one of my classes here at UNLV and it is very helpful for the students. Enjoy your videos plus as well the ones with Charlie and Dirt Perfect!!

[@davestuart6593]

I’d say I feel sorry for Charlie,but,I have a feeling Charlie’s loving being busy and wouldn’t have it any other way! Thx Chris for sharing and all your,hard work!

Have a Great Evening , and On too the Next !!

[@Loafinbaker]

Charlie is great. Thanks for the tour with him!

[@LimestoneCoastCustoms]

I have a mate just like Charlie who owns a Fabrication business, he just can't say NO! In saying that, he's such a nice bloke & tries to help everyone, but you just can't do everything. I've avoided going to work for him for a few reasons (after I closed my own shop) again, just like Charlie, he pulls some stupid hours (we've gone away on vacation & he just sleeps for the first few days!!) We do worry about him as I'm sure you do with Charlie (& his wife sure does) So Glad he can take the time to show us around!!

[@thomasfleming2593]

Very interesting information. Talking through the the operations gives one insight how complacated this kind of work really is.

[@jamesmorton8431]

he was cussing tho

[@theshadow4292]

Chris, as always thank you for the life on your farm videos and the ones on the work you do as a property maintenance professional. I would ask two things as an avid from day one fan, (1) please make a video of the large lake you dug and landscaped about 2 - 2 1/2 years ago, the 10-acre lake where the owner was supposed to build a bridge over the middle of the waterway, and (2) what has happened to the large land clearing and pond digging job that you started about 1 year ago where you said that you had to "Drain the Swamp" using the two long ditches that you dug while you were clearing the trees and underbrush. Thanks again.

[@pjs5191]

Charlie is so interesting to listen to talk about all his stuff and projects. Must be crazy to have the kind of money he has to throw around at equipment. I bet you could sit and listen to Charlie’s stories all day Chris.

[@fastfreddy121]

Thanks for doing what you do. I love the channel. Also thanks for sharing Charlie’s story. He’s awesome.

[@wbulex]

Hello Charlie, good to see you and Chris. Always fun to see your interaction with Chris.

[@LLImprovement]

I’m glad i don’t have to deal with stumps that big when I land clear. That reclaimer was a good purchase it opens up a lot of doors for him. Could even go in and break land with it after for farming. I was looking at them but 3 point hitch attachments for tractors.

[@TheChunky2010]

It’s always nice to see Charlie and what he’s bought.

[@texasgilley9533]

It was good to see old Charlie again looks like you had a lot of fun with the stumper bucket

[@deconteesawyer5758]

This was "charlie" that came with the concrete crusher where they changed out the screen for dirt ?

[@larrywalker7759]

The mention of the need for storage tanks for the cement dredged up an old memory of a story told to a bunch of us by one older mechanic who hailed from North Carolina. The mechanic telling the story was at one time employed at a big paving company in North Carolina. The time of the event his story was about would have been in the mid 1970s. The mechanic said that the State of North Carolina at the time had specified the addition of "fly ash" to the asphalt mixture for state paving jobs and his employer was in the process of constructing some dry powder "silos" to store the fly ash in, but they were not yet ready to use when the company they were going to buy the fly ash from showed up with the first dry bulk tanker of fly ash. This was a problem because they did not have any other facility to store it in. Somebody mentioned that there was a metal storage building that just had some old junk inside that could be quickly emptied and used as a temporary storage unit until the silos were finished. All the bosses agreed and had a crew empty the building right then. The dry bulk tanker had a Detroit 8V71 engine driving a huge Rootes blower that would pressurize the tanker to move the dry powder through a 6" or 8" flexible hose to empty the tanker. Normally this hose would be connected by a coupler to a fitting on the storage silo, but there was no provision for the coupler to connect to on the metal building. The group of "engineers" on hand decided that it would be OK to cut a hole in the metal siding on the back of the building and just shove the hose through a few feet and let'er rip. So they cut a hole with a torch and helped the tanker driver lift up the hose and drop about 4 feet of the hose through into the building. Then the tanker driver fires up the 8V71 and notches the throttle up a little and opens the deliver gate valve to let the fly ash discharge into the storage building. A few seconds pass and nothing appears to be flowing into the building. So the tanker driver revs the engine up a little higher, still nothing happening. The driver runs the engine RPM up to full governed and, still nothing. So then the tanker driver goes and opens the small walk through door of the storage building and looks inside (with a curious group of mechanics and laborers peeking over his shoulder). Tanker driver sees that the weight of the coupler on the end of the hose has caused the hose to collapse and pinch off where it comes through the hole in the wall. The driver then walks over to the hose, looks at it for a few seconds, and then proceeds to LIFT UP on the end of the hose!!!!!!! My friend telling the story was at this point almost laughing hysterically as he recalled the details. He told us that at the moment the hose came "unpinched" and fly ash began flowing that "It looked like an atomic bomb went off. Bystanders were scrambling to get away from the door and fly ash shot out of every nail hole and gap in the whole building. Mechanics were rushing to shut down the engine. And the poor tanker driver staggered and stumbled through the door that he found by feeling his way along the wall." My friend said the appearance of the driver made him think, "Abominable Snowman". He said the driver was holding his arms out in front of himself and hoarsely whispering "Help me." Just hearing the mention of storage tanks brought that moment back to me from when my friend told us all that story back in the mid 1980s at work one night.

All we do is reclaim aka stabilize our subgrade here in Florida. Its standard DOT spec, I'm doing subdivisions now we over cut our subgrade, lay in a bit of 'sweetener' aka base with native soil or fill and mix. Soil cement usually cones pre mixed on trucks these days

[@williamhouk6880]

This Equipment is totally amazing to watch especially when a talented operator is at the control's! I'm almost 70 and when I was a kid my dad was clearing land by digging a ditch around large oak stumps chopping roots then drilling under the stump to put Dynamite under them to blow the stump out of the hole. I was just wondering what kind of work you guys would be doing if you had to do it the old way? Thank God you don't need too! 🙏 Great Videos Let'sDig18

[@1herbert100]

Charlie seems tired, both physically and mentally. He better learn to say no to some things. Great video.

[@nathanscott7910]

He reminds me of my dad. My granddaddy kicked my dad out of his house when my grandmother died. He was only fourteen years old. He taught himself how to be a plasterer, painter, carpenter, electrician, plumber, and hvac. I remember growing up someone would call in the middle of the night because their water lines burst and they had no water. He would get me out of bed and say come on son let's go get this waterline fixed. It would be so cold I could hardly feel my hands. We'd be laying under the house in water fixing water lines at 2:30 am. I'd ask him every time, dad why can't we wait until the morning? His reply was always the same. Son wouldn't you want someone to help you if they had the ability and you didn't? He just couldn't bring himself to say no.

[@lt1nut]

Ahhh, the joy of being a self-employed skilled independent contractor in the construction trades, auto/truck/equip repair trades, and I imagine others. When you have the money you don't have the time, when you have the time you don't have the money, and when life is good with time and money then you don't want to spend it because the future, even with signed contracts in hand, is unstable. When you like what you do and don't want to drive a desk more than you currently have to and strive for improvement in overall quality you land up at a balancing point that probably doesn't smooth out until you're 25ish years into it.

Chris we had to do soil stabilization on a mile stretch of Mississippi Highway 605 Loraine Rd in 1999. We used Super Pave on top of that 22 yrs ago when I worked for a company called Warren Paving. To this day it has not been repaved or had any repairs. We had 2 ft of red clay gravel then 12 inches of crushed lime stone. We broke through and found feet of a black or dark gray clay that just pumped water. We brought in I can not remember how many loads of cement to stabilize that clay but 22 yrs later it is still granite hard.

[@expidition07]
