leveling a pad for a garage with a bobcat excavator

[@pandabird714]

Thanks for the point of view man. I was going to attempt something similar with no experience and with a toy but you shed some light on it. And here kicks in the counter personality. When you got time to waste to learn and play around with a toy, say for a year or two. Would it even be possible? Need that effin lower half of my small homestead graded a bit. Got time and ignorance and a one and a half ton machine on its way. Yep it's time to learn that hard lesson.

[@thecheltonchannel5739]

Learn on the fly if you own the machine. And yea it’s possible everyone had to learn at some point. I did. I learned a lot on my own land. You don’t need a laser level neither you can use a string level. Or feel of your seat which if you run it enough you will get to know how it feels. That will do for rough grading.

Good job. I just bought a Cat 304 and trying to learn how to bo stuff like this. So far not so good. At 86 IT may take a while.

[@thecheltonchannel5739]

Ah you’ll get there! Just takes time in the seat.

@@thecheltonchannel5739 I spent 35+ year moving dirt but I didn't us much small equipment. Things happen a lot faster with my excavator. I think you did a fantastic job.

Nice video

[@thecheltonchannel5739]

Thank you!

Is this a mini excavator?

[@thecheltonchannel5739]

Yes it is. I had to look it up. But a mini can weight up to around 7 tons.

[@IanSamurai]

Can you do a video on that laser thing?

[@thecheltonchannel5739]

Yea I’ll try and get one.

[@thecheltonchannel5739]

I haven’t forgot you! Lol 😂

[@TheLastMojican]

You do work up in Wisconsin?

[@thecheltonchannel5739]

Haul bill would be pretty high but I’ll work where ever lol
