[@marksaunders2500]

Hi from uk chris👋👍 boy oh boy when you need solid ground the rain pours down, when rain is your desire it seems you cant have a fire🔥🔥 at least when it is wet enough to burn the pile will be super dry and get super hot ""fast"" hope the neighbours dont have fire department on standby you got everything under control👌 and warching the other volvo trim and stack ready to load is good watch 👌 thanks for your time and be safe see you soon 👍👋

[@davidepool5884]

One thing is for sure, you have job security for a good while on this job. One of the reasons I like watching your videos is that you talk your viewers through what you’re doing. On other heavy equipment channels that I’ve watched the operators are either silent as death or they talk constantly and don’t really explain anything at all. It drives me crazy!

[@applianceman6194]

He makes you feel like you are in the cab with him...seems to always answer questions that we would ask while in the cab. He looks like he really enjoys what he does and shares that joy...not the Job itself. Him and all his friend, especially Mike, are just great and they as well make you feel like you are in their circle...the only thing missing is the sweating Ice Cold Pepsi. Chris himself is a very special type of person that this world needs more of....very easy going/ friendly as all get out and a very smart guy (at times 😂). I only wish I would live long enough to witness him as an old man...he will be a cantankerous one😊😊 Bless you Chris....prayer for you and yours. Oh please, give Mike some more razz for us as we can not😂Let him know it is fan requested....he will get a kick out of it. Mikes long reach arm...it would be easier to manipulate and help keep the excavator more stable if he made it all from aluminum. That was the monster to watch you operate. Thanks again Chris for some sane entertainment as well educational.

Chris makes three sizes of fires 🔥 huge gigantic and epic lol

[@terryeason4319]

Chris as dry as the pine will be when you light it I think it might burn like the pile is half gasoline. I hope the volume is up loud because those pine limbs should make a really good " snap, crackle and pop ." This is one boy that's anxious to see the show

[@StirlingLighthouse]

It sure makes you appreciate how hard our great grandfather's worked to clear land and all by hand and horse.

[@jwardcomo]

Doing research on the history of my subdivision I came across a book "How Settlers Cleared the Land” by Gwen Tuinman. " It took four or five years for a family to clear the 10 to 15 acres required to sustain them. An efficient workman on his own might clear an acre of land in a week, with no time left over for burning the wood. "

[@StirlingLighthouse]

@@jwardcomo Wow! Great information. Thanks for that. 👍

[@fhuber7507]

@@jwardcomo Fell the trees in a week maybe... getting the stumps up takes a little longer. Split and yank in bits because it takes a lot of force to pull the stump whole. That's why they averaged about 3 acres cleared (ready to plow) a year. (with everyone able to be useful helping, from about 5 year old to grampa.

[@ecclesmilligan8712]

@@fhuber7507 According to my mother her father used black powder to "lift" the stumps out of the ground. This was in the late 1930s early 1940s in Tasmania, Australia.

[@farmerbill6855]

Yep, when I was a kid in the 60s you could still buy dynamite by the stick at the local hardware store. Worked well on stumps.

[@MMWcolotrain]

That stumper looks like the world's largest staple remover.

[@vaughnhill3437]

Yea im with you. Dont modify the design because its obvious its not a design issue . Its a age issue. The machine was obviously not horribly treated in its life its just got some age on it and where it came from didnt help at all. Those are some of the best dozers ever made

[@cindiberg7718]

That's gonna be one heck of a bonfire when you can finally burn. Don't forget the marshmallows!

[@marklally3094]

Hi Chris would it not b handy to bring in a wood chipper for the last of the timber before u light it on fire .Im looking forward to to u lighting the fire its going to b out of this world keep up the fantastic work

[@glenjohnson9505]

when we have big burn piles, if we ask, the fire dept will come out and help with a controlled burn, they like to play and practice, and spray water around, and it doesn't cost anything!! Just an idea for you Chris.. Great Video

[@dclfarms6204]

I tried to get them to come out when we cleared about 50 acres cause it was too dry to burn them. Thought they might jump at the chance being a rural department that doesn’t go to any fires. The chief thanked me for the offer but declined. He did add, if I set them off before the winter he’d make sure I got a ticket and a fine. That’s when I bought my own pump and can draft out of my swimming pool. I lost a little trust in our fire department that day.

[@scottfortune9016]

I once got called on before I even lit a fire. Lol. Fire department at my door. You know you can't burn that?! So much for a fourth of July bon fire. Theni found out as long as it's a cooking fire, it's ok. Sacrificed a package of hot dogs every fire after that. Just had them on sticks waiting for the fire to get hot. Lol

[@tacticalrabbit308]

Only thing is the cost of the fuel to get them out there

[@ryanhoward1013]

@@dclfarms6204 I don't blame you at all I think I would have had a bunch to say to him. He sounds like an asshole and I would tell everyone what he said about the ticket and the fine.

Like the close-up shots of stumping. Pretty impressive, although can see the repetition can get to make for a long day. thanks for taking us along.

I can remember you cutting the road through the woods and now it’s all so different. It really does look nicer after you stack everything. Looking forward to the pond build, I bet it’s going to look fantastic.

Chris knows how to play 'pick up sticks' with the 220. You are making it look nice - piling stumps and brush while you dig each area. Hope you will be able to have Wilma dozer running soon, do you have an update on Ol` Betty and her seal-up job? Suwannee County Florida 5pm - 95F,,,heat index 105F.

[@garymaxfield1722]

I'm getting giddy waiting for you to light those piles off, first time I stacked a pile like that was about 1962 or 63, used a 22B Bucyrus with a clam-shell, very satisfying experience.

When you light those piles on fire now that is called global warming

Thanks for this update, Chris. You make a difficult job look easy. And I loved the shots today that brought the size of both the bucket, stumper, and thumb to life. And yet you make those giant machines whirl & twirl like a ballet dancer. That's talent & skill my friend. This was a fun one.

Temp heat plus humid, thats a nasty combo. Grab a cold lemonade drink and rest in the A/C would be sufficient. Hopefully the equipment after repairs perform well enough to pay off the cost.
