I think I can speak for all of your viewers when I say that we're so happy for your success are proud of all hard work you put in! It's been an awesome journey and we're excited to see the next steps!

Thinking back 10 years you have achieved more than most would in a lifetime - Congratulations LetsDig18 on your hard work, many hours, clever organisation of projects and dreams. The fleet is awesome.

[@SmithyScotland]

I appreciate the time and effort you sent to to gather all your equipment in one place

[@andrewbieger5004]

Congratulations on your continued success. Your work ethic and straight shooting with your customers has kept you very busy. I recall when you had the Link Belt excavator and lived in the "mobile mansion", and that seems like forever ago. I would love for you to do a video describing how you calculate a price for a project.

[@craigwavra3495]

Congrats on this achievement Chris!! Been following along for quite a few years and have enjoyed watching to see what you have created!!

[@revtoyota]

You can't deny it was nice to get it all in one spot to get that memory/photo/video. Been here from the start and I'm proud of you man. You have come a long way and can not see where the future takes you and the channel.

[@jimwittneben7719]

And the raised "waving" equipment and shutting down part at the end was just plain emotionally exciting. Extra great video

[@Kevlarel84]

It would probably take my whole paycheck just to buy the fuel burned during the making of this video😂. It was interesting to see the whole fleet together. This is one of my all time favorite youtube channels. I wouldn't have guessed that I'd find excavation work so interesting. I especially enjoy the pond work.

[@drewdanielson8582]

Congratulations! You are an fine example of what hard work and perseverance can accomplish. That is what built this country.

[@jeffwhyte1]

That last shot with all the buckets raised. Should be your next Christmas card!

[@davidschleibaum1127]

I’m a lifelong woodworker who has worked on or built everything basically from scratch on my dad’s place. Started in high school building trades. I learned how to do finish stairway and interior trim very early in my career and have been successful craftsmen in my trade and know how dangerous running equipment can be. I’m amazed how many different pieces of equipment you have acquired. But what truly amazes me is how smooth you make it look when you are operating it.

[@backroadsriderRT1200]

Congratulations on being able to put this together and show us your fleet. I always admire your expertise in operation of so many different types of equipment and enjoy all the videos.

[@larryigreen5829]

Chris, you really impress me. You have come a long way in a short time. You display a tremendous equipment operator, businessman and an immaculate property and equipment owner. As a retired Navy Seabee Construction Mechanic, I'm very proud of you and wish to meet you sometime.

[@AHomelessDorito]

What a great opportunity to see all of your equipment back home!

[@RegalBowrider175]

Each piece of equipment is absolutely well taken care of and it shows plainly in casual conversation

[@terryrogers1025]

Chris, you don’t just buy equipment, you adopt it, the equipment seems to have a happy home with you for life sir. Thanks for the ride along, enjoyed the display.

[@StackedWashingMachine]

First video I watched was around the military haul truck days. Going from there to all the new family equipment to finally building out the Letsdig18 Excavating Co fleet has been amazing!

[@dansbrown1313]

Thank you Chris, for putting out a quality video every day! I forward them to my eldest Son who sits with his young Sons each night before bed and watches how equipment is supposed to be used. Cheers from Canada.

[@andrewrobinson2869]

If they could talk every one of them would say how happy they are to be with you as we all know how much love you have for every machine & how much you care for them. Thank you Chris .

[@darthraiderVt]

This equipment is lucky to have an owner that appreciates what he has and does a great job at maintaining it. Great job Chris (and Uncle John).

[@MichaelJones1527]

It's great to see a young man like yourself accomplish so much from your hard work. We know it's hard work because you have documented it for us. Keep on doing what you're doing and we will see even greater things for you in the future. I hope you have a very good accountant that can help you take advantage of all the depreciation you are eligible for with all that equipment. Great video and I'm glad to see a North Carolina boy do good.

[@swk1610]

I’ve been watching this channel long enough to know you worked hard and earned every bit of it.👍🏼

Wishing you the best for years and years to come.!!

I remember the first Volvo 220 you bought you said " how will I ever financially recover from this". Looks like you recovered well!

[@MrStarchild156]

Funny, I remember that comment too. At the time, you can tell he was extremely nervous due to the big financial investment. However, it's nice to see how it worked out and even though he just bought a brand new 2022 Volvo 220, he still loves the 2017 Volvo 220 because it's the one that transformed his business to a whole new level where it is today.

Now that is impressive and certainly would shock your competition knowing what you have accomplished. I know you have support from family and friends. You also have built a nice reputation for your self for the good jobs you have done for customers in your area. Most of that equipment new and is in very good mechanical shape. Not easy to do when you use most of it daily. One thing customers know when you start a job your equipment is going to perform to complete it on a timely basis. Hope the new year continues to bring you wealth and security for you and loved ones. Your videos you continue to publish are always entertaining. I know this leaves you with little spare time. But thanks for sharing this part of your daily life with us for our entertainment.

Well, most jobs in a timely manner. Chris had 3 where there were problems with the equipment in the last year that stalled the jobs.

[@LatitudeSky]

@@jaquigreenlees That's true, but the last time the 220 was down, he said he needed to do aomething about that, and I knew at that moment he was going to get a second 220. So from adverse events came a backup plan but also the ability to work two sites at once with 220s, which is clearly something he was going to need to be able to do. It worked out.

[@timl3605]

You are one of my two original KZbinrs that I continue to watch and you’ve both blown up to greater gear, toys and equipment. Your trailer to that house is a great example. You did leave out the F-250. What about a “shorts” video on the drone you use and why you prefer it?

[@oldschoolhoosier]

I thought sure you had a roller as well. That’s a very impressive group of machines Chris.
