Thank you Lynn and God Bless…

[@TomThomas-w8b]

Hi Sam really like this video, the way you did this one it tied right in with the message and that was great. But I’m sure there’s viewers that would appreciate you explaining the process and the projects you’re working on. Thanks Sam enjoyed the video and the message 👍🏻

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Tom, it seems like there is a good mixture of folks who like this type of video and the others where I explain things. Will do a little bit of both in future videos. Glad you enjoyed the message… God Bless

[@jameslockhart3102]

Love your videos. Thank you for sharing God's word. I would hate to see the rock Bill on this job lol.

[@tristardiggin]

Thank you Justin! Yup, the rock bill was a doozy and not done with the rock yet. Will have to gravel the entire road all the way back to the pad area. Glad you enjoy the message… God Bless

[@justinsigmon1878]

@tristardiggin yes sir God is good brother and worthy of praise. I started my own landscaping/tree business and he has blessed me more than I ever could have imagined.

[@jont9903]

Your not kidding lol

[@tristardiggin]

That is awesome to hear!

[@roberttipps6008]

I am a new guy to the channel. I am learning from you how to build my road to my “forever home” on earth. So please explain things you are doing. I am “diggin” this channel.

[@tristardiggin]

Hey Robert, I appreciate the feedback on this video. And welcome to the channel and thanks for watching and supporting it. The next video I will be back to my normal style of video. Glad you are “Diggin” the channel…🤣🤪😂 Sam

[@AllstarVentures]

“ cat got your tongue” ? Lol 😂 Nice how you were able to float the culvert right up to the other 👍🏼 Nice job and good word. Keep spreading the Truth, Sam

[@tristardiggin]

Yup, cat got my tongue! 🤣🤪Thanks, I appreciate it. I thought that was kinda cool when the pipe floated right up there where it was supposed to go! 😀 God Bless

[@NakedDave100]

Well done sir!! Great video using Caterpillar Equipment!! Thank you for using Cat Equipment, and not using that brand ex garbage!!!

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Dave, I appreciate that! I do enjoy the CAT equipment…😀

Amen

[@tristardiggin]

[@JamieCoursey-f3t]

Good job, good message. People probably say my comments are too long also. So I will keep it short tonight. Hope you have a good rest of your week. My friend.😊

[@tristardiggin]

That’s a good one! 😀 Thanks Jaime and have a blessed week as well…

[@timberterra]

That's some expensive fill material, but it'll make a great road. Road fabric is your friend. Use it!

[@tristardiggin]

Fabric works pretty good in some situations. Guess we all do things a little differently…

[@davidparks3954]

Hello Sam, my name is Dave. Im glad i found your channel. Ive been a heavy equipment operator for 30 years now. My specialty is an Excavator. You're an inspiration with your talent and the words you speak. I came across your channel trying to learn all i can about the trimble earthworks gps system. I work for a big outfit here in Lexington Kentucky. I'm familiar with the system but there is a lot of things I need to learn on it. Im originally from the Appalachian Mountains of Southwest Virginia. I've been binge watching your videos. I told my wife I would love to go down and hang out with you and I said if that ever happened maybe I could get with you and work with you for a day or so. I told her that I wouldn't even expect to be paid. The word of God is something I need more than anything. I need him back in my life. I've grew away from him over the years. I would like to thank you and to keep doing what you've been doing.

[@tristardiggin]

Hey David I appreciate what you said and welcome to the channel. Trimble was a great investment and I’m glad to have it , especially working by myself. Hey I’m glad to hear the message was a blessing to you and you want to restore your relationship with the Lord! That is the most important thing we can do. Maybe somewhere along the way we will meet. I’m kind of planning to go to the Louisville Expo Center later this year, if I’m not mistaken there is going to be a trade show there. Will have to check on that to make sure it’s this year… Thanks and God Bless Sam

[@robertgonzalez8419]

Shalom praise God,God bless brother

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Robert! God Bless

[@fivestring4653]

I was sure glad to see you fill around that pipe with 57's . They'll never have a problem with that joint . Regarding the message : that was my wife and mine's prayer this morning , to give back to the Lord by glorifying him through our lives the way we live and hopefully we'll be seen as peculiar to the world when we go out . God blesses us so much every day and I know we can't out give him but he gives so much it makes me feel I ain't doing enough and pray for opportunities to tell someone about him . I mean that's the best way I can think of to give back. I appreciate the message Sam , thanks

[@tristardiggin]

Right, I believe that was a good fix for the pipe extension. Should not settle at all. That is a great prayer y’all had this morning. And that was well said… God Bless

[@gregallsup9522]

Awesome Job & Message!!

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Greg! 😀

Black & White video would have been the perfect compliment - Ha.

[@tristardiggin]

John that would have been great! I wish I had thought of that and used a black and white filter for some of it…🤣 Thanks, Sam

[@shaneoates335]

I enjoyed the video but I like it better when you talk about what you're doing as you go. Awesome message as usual 👍🏻👍🏻 keep up the good work brother.

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Shane, I appreciate the feedback! I like the way I have been doing them as well. Glad you enjoyed the message too. God Bless

[@planeanddirtsimple]

Diesel is doing a good job inspecting the work. Love the high lift tailgate on the Mack. Great message, if we were called into court and accused of being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict us? Have a good one!

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Kenny! Yup, that lift gate is great for sure. Glad you enjoyed the message…

[@martymclamb5750]

One things for sure, your parnters stay right by your side 💯

Did you ever walk in a class Room an the teacher doesn’t speak - keep the talkies coming and always another great vid

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Garry and that is a good way of putting it! 🤣

[@qualitydirtmoving]

Nice video💪👍

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks, I appreciate you watching…

[@jimjennings1970]

I like your message on the Bible and on the rest of your video is good to keep it up

[@tristardiggin]

Thank you Jim and God Bless…

[@blackdogexcavator21]

In some ways, I liked the video the way you did it. It's interesting to watch the action without commentary and just see the progress being made. On the other hand, I'd rather have the interaction with the content creator because it seems more personal to me. I guess that's why as Christians, we have the ability to go before the Father in prayer, tell him how we are feeling, ask for forgiveness, and to ask Him to heal, provide, and comfort us in our times of need. It's the personal relationship in prayer and church worship that keep us close to God. Thanks for the message and sharing your work day.

[@tristardiggin]

That was well said and a great way to explain it. I like watching other channels do the work but also have a mixture of commentary with it…

[@brandoneads5496]

Great video. I agree we all should show our light and faith everyday, not just on when the church doors are open. So many are just Sunday Christians. I know that from experience from being out of church for a few years, a Sunday Christian can discourage many. It is really discouraging to the ones that have been out of church and see the way some are, especially preachers. That is what has discouraged me the most. I know people are people and are not perfect, but they should show and act like they are Christians. Sorry to ramble thanks Sam and keep up the great work.

[@tristardiggin]

Hey Brandon, I know what you are saying. It is discouraging but we just need to keep our focus on the Lord. God Bless

[@brandoneads5496]

Exactly

[@briangammons8242]

Charlie Chaplin? lol. If you’re like me sometimes you just got to put your head down and go. Got a lot to do and not a lot of time to get it done. Sometimes ain’t much room for talking. I enjoyed the video as always Sam. Great job!!

[@tristardiggin]

Brian that is exactly right! Just have to hunker down and get things done. 🤣 Thanks

[@gregorycook9991]

😎

[@tristardiggin]

😀👍

[@Cedarsman.]

Hi Sam . 1st i would like to say that Charlie Chaplain style is now being famous between KZbinrs like you , i began to see it with Andrew Camarata , Dirt perfect , let'sdig18 , and soon with Hamilton Farmville, and you now . and really i like this kind off Video's and off course with the Good content that you present for us as followers... Thanks again sam for your effort And special thanks Sam for the Bible messages that you read and send for us as your followers. Jesus bless you and be with you on all your life 🤗🤗🙏 Joseph from Lebanon 🇱🇧

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Joseph I really appreciate the feedback on the video. This was a little different style of video for me. I like to try something new like this to see what folks think about it… Glad you are enjoying the messages and God Bless…

[@randywilson6869]

There is a guy in Sapulpa ok that has a pipe yard that his old grandfather started years ago. It has grown so big now that the grandson has it. But he had a piece of property across the highway from it and it was nothing but a 25 foot deep washout that flowed big time after a good rain. They put a couple pipes like that but about twice that size. It was no time that it started not working so he took them out and went and got a bunch of boulders and filled it in with them and then topped it off with rip rap the gravel then he concrete it all he gained a couple acres of parking. They have 2 school buses with the flashing lights and brings all his help to work like that. It’s interesting how all that water flows through it like that.

[@tristardiggin]

Wow! Sounds like a pretty good fix on that place…

[@allanpeters4403]

I agree with Jeffrey below and I bet you will be glad when this job is done - lol.

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Allan! It has been a lot of work for sure. But I definitely like the challenging jobs…🤪

[@stovebolt448]

Good Afternoon Sam.🙃

[@tristardiggin]

Hello James, appreciate you watching…

[@rgill450]

Could you help me understand the reasoning behind using rock around the pipe? I'm curious because I would typically backfill with dirt and then top it off with stone, which might save some money. Just looking to understand your process better. Thanks!

[@tristardiggin]

Basically used for the compaction rating. You find different numbers on the internet but typically 57s will be 90% or so compacted just by dumping it in place. Then after running a compactor across it you will get almost no settling running accross it. It is very difficult to get dirt compacted around the bottom of the pipe up to about halfway of the pipe and then when you compact dirt around the top half you will have a maintenance/repair issue as the dirt begins to settle over time. I will be running the dump truck weighing around 66k and also concrete trucks will be crossing it as well. Rock is just a better way to go because of compaction. Hope that helps out some… Sam

[@darrylmackenzie8890]

Another enjoyable video Sam. I appreciate the hard work that you put into producing your videos. I was wondering if you have any experience with the Cat 312 good or bad? Thanks Sam and God bless!

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Darryl, I appreciate that! I haven’t operated a 312 but I would say if it’s in good shape it would do a great job for you. God Bless

[@randywilson6869]

U are doing a great job. Ole Chris has set the bar pretty high hasn’t he with his mini doing things on his own. I don’t want me a 304e2 for sure. Is that your first 1

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Randy. Chris definitely did! The first excavator was a 308. Then I got the 304. Then I sold the 308 after getting the 313…

[@codycrouch4861]

I thought my volume was turned down at first then though maybe you mic broke lol enjoyed the video and message Sam!

[@tristardiggin]

lol, that’s funny! Just a little something different I was trying out… Thanks

[@codycrouch4861]

Def shows me the different in talking in videos and not. I gotta get better at talking to my audience. I gues busy doing something and kinda zone out lol kinda like my quiet place lol then I remember that I’m filming lol 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@jimd421]

That small of an excavator reminds me of tongue toys.

[@tristardiggin]

@codycrouch4861 yup, it takes some time to get comfortable and use to talking in the videos.

[@jim9387]

awesome where can I get a big BIBLE like that?

[@tristardiggin]

Hey Jim, I use a John MacArthur study Bible. I’m thinking it would be available on Amazon.

[@kevingardner4737]

Another great message and video. Go back to being yourself. Thanks Sam

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Kevin and I definitely like making videos the way I have been doing them. I appreciate the feedback on this video… God bless

[@spankywagner7740]

Sometimes, we press the mute button on the TV remote...but we like hearing you talk - explaining what the job entails and taking it to completion with us. "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not human masters." Colossians 3:23 (NIV) Good works will not save us, but good works come from those who are saved. Everyday affairs are in the arena of spirituality; it's integrity in relationships - wives respecting husbands, husbands loving wives, kids loving parents, parents loving their kids, workers doing good - bosses being fair...Until next time, be safe Sam. We are listening. Best regards, Mike&Pat

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Mike&Pat! I definitely appreciate the feedback on this video. Helps me know what kind of videos folks like to watch… God Bless

Charlie Chaplin or Harold Lloyd ??? 🤔😂 Anyway, you did a canny job, Sam ..... I think you think you know what you are doing 🤓💪 And as for Diesel.... just spent the day doing what Border Collies do best.... rounding things up !!! Wise words too, I may not be a church user, but I do serve in my own way.... put my skills to work for our family and neighbours, run a fire cadet branch (13 to 18 year olds), and being part of a retained (on call) fire crew on top of my full time job..... Thankfully my better half understands what I do, and she is willing to let me do the extra activities for the community !!

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Alex! I sure try hard to figure things out. 🤪 Diesel loves to ride and also just to run around too. Glad you enjoyed the message and it definitely looks like you do a lot of community work where you are… God Bless

[@msgtb]

Don't trust in commentaries. Read the word of God and ask the Holy Spirit if you don't understand something. God Bless you in Jesus Christ most holy name Dave

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Dave and I agree that God will give us the wisdom, James 1:5 makes that clear to us. However, we shouldn’t cast aside well written Bible based commentaries to help us understand the Bible. Over time there have been some great preachers who share the meaning of scripture through verse by verse commentary that helps us every day folks understand… God Bless, Sam

[@spankywagner7740]

I wanted to take a moment to share with you my thoughts on the invaluable resource that is the John MacArthur Expository Bible. In my journey of faith, I have found great solace and guidance within its pages, enriched by the insightful commentary it offers. One aspect that stands out to me is the clarity it brings to the Scriptures. John MacArthur's commitment to expository preaching and teaching ensures that every passage is carefully examined and explained in its proper context. This depth of understanding is a boon to any student of the Bible, providing clarity where confusion might otherwise reign. I've noticed a trend among those who reject useful commentary, often driven by a desire to read into the text something that simply isn't there. This is where the danger lies - when personal interpretation supersedes sound doctrine and rigorous study. The commentary provided by John MacArthur serves as a safeguard against such tendencies, grounding our understanding in the truth of God's Word rather than subjective interpretations. The John MacArthur Study Bible in the hands of Tristar digging is one of the most well-written study Bibles I've ever come across. Its comprehensive notes, theological insights, and practical application make it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Scripture. The leadership within Grace Community Church, and the theologians trained through the Masters Seminary, exemplify this commitment to fidelity in biblical interpretation. Their rigorous training and dedication to sound doctrine provide a solid foundation for guiding others in their understanding of God's Word. In conclusion, I am grateful for the John MacArthur Expository Bible and the wealth of knowledge it provides. May we continue to delve into its pages with humility and reverence, seeking always to align our understanding with the truth it reveals. In a world where distractions abound and interpretations vary widely, your commitment to spreading the message of diligent study and adherence to biblical truth is truly commendable. Your work serves as a beacon of light, guiding fellow Christians towards a deeper understanding of God's Word and fostering a culture of diligent study and work ethic among believers. The importance of work ethic cannot be overstated in the life of a Christian. Just as you diligently dig (Tri Star Diggin, as the name implies) into the truths of Scripture; so too, should we all strive to apply ourselves wholeheartedly in every aspect of our lives, reflecting the diligence and dedication exemplified in your work. Thank you for your tireless efforts in sharing these vital messages with us all. May your work continue to inspire and encourage others to seek truth and live with integrity.
