Repairing field tile after the flood with john Deere excavator and cat dozer

[@jz1340]

The relief risers are a brillant idea!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Great work! I love running that dozer and thanks for explaining that very interesting

[@louisianadirt2188]

Great repairs on drainage, you make it look easy. Dwayne

[@Moose-rq8gv]

Good job that field looked like a mine field. Be safe

[@jamiemassey6552]

Just wondering why you didn’t put washed gravel around your riser pipe? It helps filter out the soil from getting in the pipe.

[@DirtPerfect]

Absolutely wast of money covered that very well in some other videos thanks

[@NotJustaTool]

Speaking from someone who had no idea what FIELD TILE was, that looks a lot harder to lay out than FLOOR TILE. Good job PROBLEM SOLVING the drainage issues! Why are the vent pipe holes under dirt? They don't need a sleeve around that riser to keep mud from entering the pipe? Maybe it's high enough, but just in case...

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol floor tile is much cleaner also don’t have a good answer to your ? Other Than that’s the way it he instructions say to do it lol there are holes all the way to the top tho

[@NotJustaTool]

She'll hold!!!

[@matheusfarmandagriculture1701]

hello friend, I am also implementing this drainage system in my fields, what does the orange tube do?

[@DirtPerfect]

Control water intake

[@burningdinosaurs]

Them clay tiles were all done with good intentions, but man, they sure didn't last! I've dug out a bunch out of my yard and most of what I found that happened to still be round was full of dirt. Hey, don't pull too hard on that riser... whoops!! lol! Hopefully those repairs work out for y'all! Thanks for the video!

[@DirtPerfect]

lol thanks for watching buddy

[@cookiesservices4552]

That clay tile was great technology 40 or 50 years ago but definitely outdated now I don’t know if you have any orangeburg there but the clay is a lot easier to work with orangeburg was basically compressed tar paper always goes oval and crumbles when you try to attach to it. Getting er done nice job Mike 👍🏻

[@DirtPerfect]

We have a clay tile plant about 30 mins form here just closed yesterday after 80 years in operation

[@johnwarren-649]

Looks nice now.. I'd put flood caps at the river end it'll help with the back pressure on you're tile

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks a thought for sure

[@edhunt9080]

Do you think a swing Check valve at the river would help

[@DirtPerfect]

No

[@justinotten6673]

What about soil getting into the pipe through the risers perforations that are below grade?? Could that plug the pipe??

[@DirtPerfect]

Not likely

[@junkyardsgarage]

Got it lookin good! Ole Brandon better watch out because you’re closing in on him quick! Great video!

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol thanks how is you boy doing

[@junkyardsgarage]

He’s doing better. Had a few headache episodes yesterday but they didn’t last long at all. Goes back to the doctor Thursday for another scan. Thanks for asking!

[@dennis2376]

Why was the drain titles so deep, or is that because of time and the river depositing more dirt? Thank you.

[@DirtPerfect]

Has to so it will drain

[@dennis2376]

@@DirtPerfect Thank you.

[@clydeacor1911]

Good to see you thinking about trench safety, we've had 3 or 4 guy's killed by trench collapses here in like the last 6 months here in little rural eastern Idaho. We don't have any drain tiles around here that I know of but was wondering why they would use something like clay tiles for the pipe? Loved the video!

[@DirtPerfect]

Dam hate to hear that clay was used because there is a clay tile plant about 25 minutes for here located based on the clay me have in the ground around here thanks for watching

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

Actually... clay tile was “state of the art” for this application until the 70’s. Especially so, if you had a USDA grant or loan. My dad and I did a Dairy barn drain into a collection pond... I know because I ran the pick and shovel. Fond memories: the dad part... not the digging part.

[@barbaracarragher7012]

You have really cute kids 🥰

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@dougackerman4182]

Great video Mike

[@briangardiner1015]

What dance was that called when the riser came out? J/k Nice way to solve a problem. Looks like you do alot of work for farmers. That 120 is a nice machine.

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol thanks and yes lot of work for farmers and thanks for watching and love my 120 great machine for want I do

[@tgiacobbi]

Problem solved. Great video.

[@robertd3508]

Do you have a video on your trailer? I would like to see some of the things you add on to it, like a walk around on it.

[@DirtPerfect]

I don’t not but it’s on the list of videos I am going to make may be a month before I can get it up stay tuned will see what I can do thanks for watching

[@randytravis3998]

Great video .. house hold sewer systems tied in to the village system they have had a few back ups ,, brown trout swimming in the basements of homes .. they make a one way valve that stops that ,, don't know how big of a one way valve they make ,, could install them near the end of the drain in the bank so the river don't take them ,, if they make a valve big enough ??

[@VideosByAl]

Bet that field is a good producer if it does not flood during growing season.

[@DirtPerfect]

Yes it is and not normally thanks for watching

[@uggy7]

Good job, well done. 👍👍🇵🇪🐕❤️

[@joeking0593]

aint fixing tile fun really enjoy your vidoes

[@DirtPerfect]

No 😜 and thanks for the feedback much appreciated

[@mrs.eliteearthworks]

Loved the time lapse music 😂

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks 😁

[@mikeobrien3744]

How about a simple one way flap valve at the rive bank? If you can prevent river water from migrating up the pipe, it may reduce the problem.

[@DirtPerfect]

Have you ever meet the Ohio River will be gone first flood

[@mikeobrien3744]

@@DirtPerfect Have I meet the Ohio River??? I live in Lost Angeles County California, I don't even know what water looks like!. It does make me wonder....what exactly am I doing with my life?

[@pjexc5500]

How many hours on the 120

[@DirtPerfect]

12k and some change

[@pjexc5500]

Still runs nice good machine they don't make them like that anymore

[@DirtPerfect]

Very true

[@randym148]

On the end at the river,put in a section of steal pipe. Than put on a metal flapper on it. This way water can go out ,but when the river comes up the flapper will shut and stops the pressure.

[@DirtPerfect]

The mighty Ohio will grab that and spit it out in New Orleans 😊

[@jimoakley3436]

Fixed a lot of tile lines,never fun. Clay tile was made in a lot of small towns here in Iowa,some dug in by hand,two spades deep.

[@DirtPerfect]

Yup same here last a long time but suck to fix

What happens to the risers when you plough?

[@DirtPerfect]

They are marked on gps so we know where they are

[@kevinlewis7882]

Thanks

[@guido2110]

Old school field tile ,been there done that 💩 ,put a 12 foot piece of like 2 inch pvc in the ground besides that vent pipe ,did that on property makers in fieds that touch then a combine can see them to .

[@DirtPerfect]

Thais for the idea don

[@CaptKirk1701]

Could have used septic chambers and it would handle more water and gravel around them, but that works to, crocs in the ditch lol

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol thanks for the idea Kirk

[@virginian7317]

I'd love to walk those fields for arrowheads,

[@DirtPerfect]

There have been several found there

[@charlietanner6211]

river bottom land some of the most prodective on planet those floods make it what it is just don,t need itduring growing season

[@calholli]

We usually run our vent pipe over to the fence line so that it will last and not get run over in the field. All it takes is money.

[@DirtPerfect]

Not a bad idea

[@BubbaIXI88]

sorry, i did laugh a lil when you were wrestlin with that riser. haha . another great video

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol thanks

Doesn’t matter how much equipment you have. Eventually you will be using a shovel.

Fighting old man river is never a fun project for sure! the crazy things farmers will go through for good tillable soil. As always way to capture that project!

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks for the feedback Doug much appreciated

[@steveeaster3081]

The clay tiles were done by the army corps of engineers during the great depression to provide income to unemployed people

[@DirtPerfect]

Yes you are correct

[@cookiesservices4552]

Steve there were a lot of clay products during the war because of the shortage of concrete and metals I thought it was more a shortage of labor than depression but I might be wrong

[@cree5433]

Big county tiles were put in around me as government projects. But a lot of the clay was privately put in (in northern Ohio)

[@mrbakerskatz]

Pretty good vidja but you sure missed an opportunity to call in two wreckers and an army truck to unstuck that dozer . Pssshtttt

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol good point thanks for the comment love the way you are thinking lol

Never been accused of being a thinker before ....I like it !

[@brianwebber7168]

It will last for a long time when it’s completely clog are the government has a program to do so
