Demo And Clearing On A New House Lot

[@jaquigreenlees]

You know what is truly amazing? The fact you do daily videos. We the viewers can't thank you enough for the work you put in to produce these videos we enjoy. 8 -16 hours a day on the machine, then hours at the computer putting together a video. Please keep up the excellent work both on the machines and in producing the videos.

[@TheBurnsStuff]

My favorite angle is the in-cab view. Seeing the near first-person view of things has been super helpful. I have a mini and use it for my own personal projects (way cheaper to own it than rent it) and I've used a lot of your techniques to get stuff done. Its been quite educational watching you work, not only in what you do, also how you do it. I know you have a process and I've adapted a lot of how you do things to my own execution. It has sped up my process significantly. Thank you for your videos.

[@curtisricks9043]

I'm always amazed at the variety of projects you guys work on. John must be quite the coordinator.

[@pqworks9019]

That job was done beautifully!!!! Perfect demo, tree removal, and clean up!

[@darlenedeacon7912]

I’m from Canada 🇨🇦 and 80 and a woman but love your videos

[@theshadow4292]

Thank you for posting this video and please keep them coming, they start my morning in a great way. Stay safe and protect yourself during this time of fear and anxiety. It would appear that Tim is learning the business and has become a really good assistant for you. I assume that a shade tree mechanic lives next door to the property which you are clearing for a house to be built on. I'm not sure that I would want a field of broken-down cars as a next-door neighbor to my new home, but that's just me. I believe that is the first shelter type shed that I have ever seen where the post was not embedded in concrete. Albeit, that did make it much easier for you to take down.

There is some about the crunching of the metal roof that is mesmerizing.

Hey, that Caprice is a classic now.

I was shocked that the owner didn't come running out from the sound of crinkling sheet metal.

Hey Chris, thank you for the video and continual great content:) I think the 160 is showing signs of early onset Huntington's :(

[@mischef18]

Enjoyed this video bro. Stay safe

[@doubledarefan]

Chris, I wonder if you will ever get a car disposal job. Not pushing cars around; you've done that. I'm talking about crunching up cars like you did that shelter, and hauling 'em to the recycler. Your big Volvo would crunch a car like a soda can in Hulk's hand.

[@odin-eliottodinson7330]

Thank you Chris for the entertainment. Did you change the top frame of the truck? Looks like the boards are brand new.

[@dirty.diggers]

I had a small Kubota it was fun, all the relatives and neighbors wanted to use, only one neighbor paid.

[@gman8260]

Not First!!! Doesn't matter when I view the videos, they all are a welcome relief. I think you scared that shelter to the ground rather than knocking it down. Thanks Chris.

[@carlcook3297]

Roadmaster Little Giant Air Horn from Northern Tool would be good for the 160

[@ArtisanTony]

I felt sorry for the little shelter :)

[@thomasevans2309]

We always put a cable in the trees close to homes and cars, it takes away some of the scary, Dont ever want to use your insurance because you cant afford it after,Nice job tho.

3 hours later and 17 people thumbs down because the structure didn't land on the cars and destroy them.

I'm guessin people saw the two bikes in that shelter

[@patg6705]

The man using the chain saw couldn't have shaved around the stump? It would have made it a bit smaller - I'm just curious

[@jasonjackson7201]

I really like the style of thumb you guys are using on your excavators. It's one of the best designs I have seen. Too bad you guys don't have a portable sawmill to saw lumber out of those nice big logs and make firewood out of the rest. It could be a side business if you ever have any equipment downtime. That's what I do with our bigger trees, it fills in the time when we aren't working the machines and creates another form of revenue for the company. I also enjoy sawing logs into usable lumber. It has it's rewards in itself. Great videos!
