New Road Needs A Big Undercut Right At The Start!

[@terryrogers1025]

The mini with the grade bucket makes the grade out oh so much nicer, sure is a sweet little machine. Thanks for the update sir, enjoyed watching.

[@jjMcCartan9686]

Why is that mini so mesmerising? Mechanical poetry in motion from lets dig 18 😊

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Nice start to the continuing road. Glad John is doing okay, miss seeing him but extremely happy you are doing so well on your own. Thanks for sharing with us, Chris. And congrats on a beautiful pond here. Once again your work shines.

[@donnal.oglesby4806]

Great Job Chris, and sure the finished road will look great once completed. Hope your feeling better.

[@kevinmurray7135]

It’s always good to see you building something out of nothing and making it work the owner the way the man wants it and anding too his legacy for his family and you have the vision to build amazing things that really helps the land to be used properly instead of being a waste of real-estate and just sitting there 👍😎🇺🇸 NY

[@hydraulic-hum]

glad you are sounding better.. will be interesting to see how the road looks after the concrete fill..

[@keithdunlap2701]

Like ya said, Your road turned out so hard , you can drive anything over it now !! Great as always !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!

[@donnamullins2089]

Road is looking good. Only you can drive equipment a millimeter next to the flags. Hope you catch a break from the winter storm. Stay warm.

The Road building in the Winter Time a great Risk, with the Rain. By this Road drawing is the Background nearly Waterproof, the the Surface to Rain a Mud! You must hope of Dry Weather.

[@maxmacdonald7174]

Having a bucket that can operated the way Chris does was science fiction when I was young.

[@mischef18]

Sure made some great videos from this project bro and this another one. Safe travels. Ken.

[@tomswindler64]

I see why you need stone on that section of road,it looks a tad wet.wasn’t that section of property filled in.never ending with this customer,he’s a keeper,always got something going on.great video as always,just keep doing what you do best,work hard and keeping customers happy .great job 😎😎😎👍👍👍

[@Skorpychan]

Mentioning John's dump truck reminded me that we've not seen John in a long time. Is he doing okay?

[@christianswanson7571]

I was going to ask the same thing. How is John?

[@excavatortrucking]

Awesome

[@mariebennett5739]

Been wondering that too

[@sylviaprudhomme5417]

Looking great. ❤❤❤❤

[@stanley-rn7xo]

I asked the same question a couple weeks ago I’m sure the kids busy if he sat around and responded to all of our questions that would take a lot of time I guess

[@michaelpeace716]

You’re like a surgeon with that mini and grading bucket.

[@Todd.Roberts]

A nice looking shift in the road .

[@scottburk4083]

Have a good one Chris!!!

[@michaelmullins1290]

Still beautifying this property. Hopefully John is doing great. Im sure hes still working hard as always.

[@martineastburn3679]

Might need a tile line or two draining the sub water table. Mud deep means it is being fed from another drip joint or entrance.

[@Justalittleoutoftown]

Sounds like you’re feeling better. What size is that pond? It’s hard to tell on video.

[@JO-ly9tk]

great video,, how does that big pond look, the one where you used the the big truck on.

[@bobbentley8908]

Looking good Chris

[@robertalexanderhoffmann8229]

Please no outcry from the community, this is just a psychological assessment! I myself was an independent entrepreneur like him, worked 16 hours every day a week in the max phase (workaholic), had 1 week of vacation a year, had a wife with a daughter and a minimal private life without a company!! After buying more farmland, I no longer see any boundaries between private life and business!! Like the little boy who always has his play machines around him, in the sandpit, visiting grandma and even in the bedroom, always has all the machines within easy reach!! The farm is no longer a source of balance, no longer a place to relax, one step from bed outside and you're back to work!! From my experience it is an addiction to work and therefore an illness, adrenaline is always high, sleep is minimal and then it goes on!! In the end I forgot that there are other options than working! The world has so much to offer: traveling, playing a sport, going to a musical, getting involved socially and much more. The farm would be one of the many, many possibilities, but then no construction equipment nearby, just doing farm work and not redesigning everything!! Your videos were very interesting for a long time, but there are fewer for me!!! Always dredge and build the same barren clearings or ponds. Here I am missing detailed explanations from you as to why and how this course was chosen, what reasons there are, e.g. which soil is suitable for what!! But sharing the knowledge publicly is probably counterproductive, the competition could grow!! I think your results, the design and the integration into the surrounding nature are very successful!!

[@AndrewBatman-e2f]

How’s the pond with the island you know the one with the giant dam?

[@carnordlex]

I just starting following you. I have a question, you use clay for your ponds, do you have problems with quick clay where you work? In Norway where I am from that’s a big problem. It has killed many people here and it’s still a problem so contractors have to check out where they can start building houses or other structures. Is quick clay a problem in the USA? If so where? I don’t seam like it’s a problem where you work on ponds. I have not seen all your videos yet, you have a lot off them 😊 good for me, I have a lot of to look forward too 😊

[@nigelhales874]

Remember you working with John on long reach 360 excavator 18th months ago happy holidays to john g...Great watching again Chris late evening uk 🇬🇧

[@excavatortrucking]

Awesome

[@scrappy7571]

Do you still have the non high flow skid steer? Don't recall seeing it lately.

[@letsdig18]

No I sold it when I bought my new one

[@dennis2376]

Why did you not use the skid steer for all of the job instead of the mini? 🤔 Neat trick with the tilt bucket. Thank you and have a great day.

[@coldcaribbean]

Who makes that rotary tilt bucket on your mini? All the AMI rotary tilt grading buckets i see on their website are for much larger machines. WB?

[@huggy1712]

Good day Chris strawberry shortcake doing a great job

[@robmatthews7972]

We know you like to have repeat customers that call you back to do more at the same location.

[@tomrogers9467]

A reliable, honest professional like LD 18 will never want for work. Word spreads. People like Chris are unfortunately rare in the business.

[@ronaldheit196]

Gotta love this property. It just keeps providing episodes for us to watch Chris working his magic operating excavation equipment. Not to mention providing lots of much needed $$$$ to his bank account to pay for his overhead and healthy salary he deserves. 1.7 likes in 20 minutes proves he's seriously popular.

[@cathiwim]

I think you meant 1.7K likes,yep thats popular! 33+K views and its only been up 3 hours!,

[@johnhenryNC]

I miss the days of Chris working with John & Timmy with occasional special appearances from Justin.

[@tomrogers9467]

If I could live anywhere in the US my choice would be N or S Carolina. Nice countryside, mountains in the west, moderate climate. Unfortunately, being Canadian, we can’t emigrate there without special qualifications. Shame. Maybe I should go to Mexico and just walk in with the other hordes.

[@mvmattheis]

Dude! How far are you from Lancaster SC?

[@bernardhuneault7805]

Do you ever have clients who disagree with you and insist on work being done their way even after explaining why it not a good idea? If so, what do you do about it?

[@tomrogers9467]

I imagine “he who pays the piper calls the tune”. But Chris likely warns the client that there is no “warranty” on the project.

[@kenore4003]

I bet if the customer insists that doing something poorly is out likely looking for a different dirt digger. Chris doesn't have any reason to do substandard work even if thatis what the customer says they want. "Thanks but no thanks, I'll just move on down the list. "

[@tomrogers9467]

@@kenore4003 Good point. You are correct, Chris has enough jobs ahead of him to be able to turn down a project he wouldn’t be proud of. We’ve all seen how meticulous he is in finishing his jobs.
