Super stick is back in action

[@dennis2376]

Thank you and have a good week.

[@danielheartsill4269]

In the river north of Ardmore Oklahoma there are old car bodies in the river for the catfish to den up in. People dive down, reach into the cars and pull large catfish out. A good place to have a nice lunch come up. They also cut cedar trees and put them into the river and lakes for the fish to live in then fish in the area. Works well.

[@DirtPerfect]

That’s crazy

[@HankinsExcavating]

I have started using a trash pump and a fire hose end to clean the machines. Using the pond water , the mess is left on site. My wife appreciates having a clean driveway!!!

[@DirtPerfect]

Mine to not a bad idea

Cool! With Micheal’s Southern Indiana Engineered Super Stick . Good Show Indeed . Happy Thanksgiving to All .

Happy Thanksgiving Simon Family 🍁🦃🍂

[@DirtPerfect]

That’s same to you guys

[@tkilg7169]

I would really like to see that spread out pond goop in the future. We deepened a pond on my father in laws place long ago, and we spread out a lot of the stuff on my land as well as some of our neighbors land. We live in a sandy area, so we thought it would help the soil. However, that stuff hardened like concrete, and very little grows on it without a huge amount of watering. I don't know if it was just our particular pond, or if all pond bottom goop is bad stuff. It would be interesting to see how that does.

[@DirtPerfect]

So far so good has grass on it now

[@donniesutphin6880]

Happy Thanksgiving to you and family. Also to the loyal viewers.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks same to you guys

Great Video. Thanks

[@eddiemortontapman7252]

Letsdig18 has figured out how to almost walk on water but he has more than 1 big excavator . But you went with the Fred Sanford option and southern Indiana engineered your super stick being the great recycler and budget minded business person you are . Great Family Channel Y’all .

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol yes that’s about right use what you got right 😁 and thanks Eddie

[@swamploggersnc4720]

Happy Thanksgiving!

[@the808rambla5]

Nothing like custom tools. Works perfect for the job. I really like how you switched through all the camera angles. Drone footage is always fun too. Man I’d love to give that mud mountain at a rip or two with my mud truck. Good times

[@DirtPerfect]

lol it did make a good mud hike for a while

[@bobcriss600]

An extra benefit of Swiss cheese holes in bucket....water sprays out when scooping stuff out of a pond! Neat!

Yup

What state and city are you guys in

[@hunterhendricks9074]

Also when did captain Klee man get that boat and where

[@DirtPerfect]

Southern Indiana and found it on the bank 😁

[@digndurt6936]

Cool idea, works good by the looks of it. Changes the dynamics of machine some I would think. Was this prior to line boring? Seems like wear factor would increase.

[@johnclifton3910]

Happy turkey day to you and your family and your crew and may next year be a more prosperous year

Happy Thanksgiving. Thanks for sharing the video. I really love it. That is going to be some really lush ground next year when it is dry and spread around! I love the extension as well. I remember when you built it. That was a great video too. Thanks again.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks Joel

[@aleldon9085]

That is best mud we can find. Very rich and productive. Such a shame you could not take it, use it or sell it. I would take it on my land all day long until no room left on land. Just take a pot of that mud and pot of top soil and put in same amount of tomatoes seeds and see the difference.))) Thank you for video.

[@DirtPerfect]

Yes I agree kinda what the land Owner has in mind with it

[@aleldon9085]

Unlucky you Owner knows what kind of gold you were digging out)))) BTW that mud even if dried out it is still very rich. Look around for public land contracts as dredging public ponds or lakes. Of cause if you have such things around. Wish you all the best from all my heart)))

[@offroadriverfishing]

That looked like a great spot to camp and fish with family and friends, Happy Thanksgiving

Mike for more temporary counter weight. You could make a bracket that holds two 55 gallon drums. Then fill them with water on site. God bless

Are nothing at all just not worth it machine does fine the way it is

[@9seven9seven24]

Very innovative great use of what would have been scrap metal. Keeps your machine versatile,you don't need long reach for the occasional use

[@9seven9seven24]

If it wasn't so much work to do a telescoping counter weight that would work on hydraulics would be nice to keep it versatile, but that is another whole can of worms.

[@fk319fk]

I am confused why you did not drop the level of the water a few feet.

[@DirtPerfect]

Why would not matter lot more work for noting gained

[@fk319fk]

@@DirtPerfect I would think getting some of the water out of your way would give you better visibility to the high and low spots. I do not know how the water comes in or goes out, so I do not know if it is possiable or not. Anyways it is my random thought for the day.

[@DirtPerfect]

No frank you can get a good feel for it when digging and it does no have to be perfect would take at least three days to drain this and at lest 1k plus we did this in 5 hrs hope that helps explain a little better thanks for watching and the comments

[@samchososam]

Great solution! But How would go about pricing this specific project?

[@DirtPerfect]

By the hr most of the time

[@samchososam]

Thank you for sharing... Did you charge an hourly rate for each individual machine? If so, would it be too much to ask for ball park hr rates for your pieces of equipment? Or would you be interested in selling an estimating/pricing tutorial? I currently have four similar machines you have... and wanted to give myself a reality check on my pricing methods.

[@Crewsy]

Dirt Perfect I guess the material dredged out is mostly inorganic silt and not rotting organic material.

[@larryehrlich8702]

If you have to make two trips to get your equipment out there, then why not make the second trip later after most of the water has had a chance to drain out of the mud. The spreading mud consumes more time than the spreading of mostly dry dirt. If the mud was dry you could even spread it out on a rainy day when you might not work otherwise. Think about ir!
