THE SNAKEPOND FROM HELL IS FINISHED! Prinoth M450e-900 Mulching It Down!

The snake pond from hell is finished! Got back out there with the Prinoth M450e-900 mulcher and the Kubota U55 and got the last remaining trees and brush mulched down! Everything turned out great, and no snakes this time!

I Am A City Lady, But Boy Did I Enjoy Seeing Him Work. Watch Both Videos. That Thing Is The Max. Great Job

[@ceroe123]

My husband and I just sat and watched your videos having a cup of coffee!!! GREAT JOB

[@idigit4967]

Thank you Cheryl! Glad you enjoyed the content!

[@patriciabryson6696]

I just love watching you clean over grown areas up.

[@judyforstner1108]

One would never have known that pond was there because of all the trees and brush, Very nice job. Nice pond.

[@danvetor1365]

He should have left a few of the bigger trees. But you got to do what he wants. It's his land!

[@violetaledesma2378]

Great job! Beautiful Sight. And to think that this wonderful view was hidden by that dense vegetation. Thanks to you,

[@kathleenfullwood7440]

"WOW"~You did a GREAT JOB"!!!

[@idigit4967]

Thank you Kathleen! I appreciate you watching and commenting!

[@edwardgarea7650]

Excellent video. Edited expertly, it’s a wonderful mixture of narration and action. Given the long running time it entertains and never hits any dull stretches. The job you did is a great improvement over that with which you started. The video as a record of your project is a total success.

[@idigit4967]

Thanks Edward! My editing has definitely come a long way for sure! Thanks for the feedback!

[@jeffbailey7765]

Really good job brother. It looks awesome

[@idigit4967]

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Nice job buddy! Congrats on breaking 21k subs! 👊🏼

[@idigit4967]

I appreciate it brother! It's crazy, I never thought I would be here and I really have you and Chris to thank for that, you two guys are the reason I started this channel in the first place!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

@@idigit4967 thanks man! That’s cool to hear! You are killin it right now too keep up the great work! 👊🏼

[@victorwilson4138]

Oddly satisfying. I'm old and retired and sick of watching politicians destroying everything. This is much better, thanks.

[@Glitterfall]

That's really too bad the way that was cleared. I'm not understanding why that pond needed to be exposed so much. Lovely clear water......and now just looks like a big live stock tank. Could have been another place to hang out and enjoy.

[@fayjohnson2652]

Very impressive. Going to watch other videos. Love this.

[@tarlspeakman3382]

I found your videos about a week ago, I have been watching them , there is something extremely gratifying about watching those machines just tear all that stuff apart I could sit across that little pond with a beer and just watch all day long there's something gratifying about it and maybe it's a guy thing I don't know.

[@idigit4967]

Hey Tarl! Glad you found the channel and are enjoying the content! Yeah it is cool to see the end result of jobs like this for sure! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@cathiwim]

Not just guys! I have 5 acres i tend to, with a pond and I have to do it by hand, unless the job is just way too big.

[@131dyana]

Great job. You got the surround done so no one can get bit. That is a good thing.

[@idigit4967]

Thanks Dyana! Yeah now that you can see the ground in there, there is a lot less chance of coming across a snake and not seeing him before it's too late! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@cathiwim]

Beautiful job! Enjoyed watching! That swale looks like its actually the back side of the pond dam. If so, he really needs to get it it cleanedand keep it that way. We just cleared our pond of 30 foot pines that were 6 feet tall when we moved here 17 years ago. I told hubby then they needed to go,and he said no. He learned an expensive lesson.

[@teresabrown3305]

I love this equipment. I wish someone around here had it. All they want to do is come in and bulldoze everything. I need my trees!

[@idigit4967]

Yeah this is a great tool for selectively taking out trees and brush in, around or near other trees you want to save! Bulldozing is ok for some applications but it doesn't work well for pond banks. Thank you for watching and commenting Teresa!

[@douglasmacomber6881]

Great video!!! I found this relaxing!!! Don't get me wrong but it helped this insomniac sleep last night!!! Watched today nice Job!!

[@hotchihuahua1546]

Absolutely amazed how effective and what a good job it does of mulching , Looks like a big money maker for you , you should give this equipment a name , “ Munchkin “ comes to mind .

[@chipper841]

[@AllstarVentures]

Looks like it finished up nicely 👍🏼

[@idigit4967]

Yes it did! Owner was super happy and I'll be back out there soon to cut that overgrown ditch as well! Thanks Joey!

[@gaylewatkins4685]

Loved the video. Pond looks great now.

[@jandances1687]

Wow it's a huge pond , question is the client had it cleared and open to increase fowl to use the pond ,gaggles of geese , possible swans, assisting migration of birds ,can it be stocked with fish,yep I'm a angler,from the offset it looked a huge task ,now it's gorious area lucky guy..I'm not a snake lover ,but we've seen adders swimming across the canals here ,I see one I'm off ..

[@idigit4967]

Hey Jan! I am not sure why the client wanted it cleared but I was happy to help for sure! The geese definitely seemed to like it after it was cleared for sure! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@CathleenDensmore55]

The clearing of such overgrowth is satisfying- and sad at the same time.I'msure that I could hear the trees screaming.

[@idigit4967]

It is satisfying, but most of these trees are gum trees and they grow like weeds, literally. They will quickly regrow if the area isn't maintained. I wouldn't feel too bad.

[@ako5bcv]

What a great bit of kit 👌 I’m guessing your owner operator as you know to hold back a bit when you hear the hydraulics straining ! Perfect operation , I would love to do this

[@idigit4967]

Thanks!

[@Sparkey]

Nice work, totally transformed. Think of that swathe of trees that's left as a gift for nature. :)

[@idigit4967]

Yeah it really did turn out nice and the owner was super happy with the end result too! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@gayle4804]

Awesome job!

[@idigit4967]

Thank you Gayle!

[@Scotty7268]

I enjoy watching that machine gobble up everything - but felt infinitely sad that all the trees had to go. A few shade trees would help prevent evaporation from the pond but I dare say the roots might produce saplings!

[@jameshicks4944]

The owner should (maby) leave the trees in the ditch/levie side to help hold the soil in place,it might not seem like much but those tree/brush roots hold the soil in place.

[@JaniceGilliam-wv1mj]

Wow that was a huge job but you did it you made it looks so much better the only should love it .😊👋🏽😘😘

[@ako5bcv]

I have to add I think some of the trees you took down should have been left for aesthetics ? Could look a bit to bare ?

[@idigit4967]

Yeah I agree but the owner wanted as much as possible cut and mulched down so that's what I did.

[@Andy-From-England]

Great job you did there mate

[@idigit4967]

Thanks Andy! The owner was super happy as well, I'll be back out there soon to do that ditch as well so stay tuned! Thank you for watching and commenting!

LOL this is very true LOL! Thank you for watching and commenting Glenda!

[@PatBot]

Great vid to watch, fantastic how you get all the overgrown stuff down to ground level, but what I'm thinking is all those bushes/trees roots are still there... do you just leave them or do you treat them to kill them off?

[@capt.stubby245]

Will the land owner keep it shredded? Did you instruct the land owner to come back within 30 days with a high concentration of 2-4,D to prevent this from happening again?

[@lbl9066]

First x here. Never saw this bf. Interesting, but not the snakes, very scary…

[@eandatoo]

I hate gum trees. I live in north Florida and they're everywhere. They just make a big mess. And you're right, If you don't nip the saplings in the bud early on, they'll spring up fast.

[@darleneeastman4121]

It really looks good! Why the pond, am assuming it attracts snakes?

[@shirleyc7175]

Well I have spent all afternoon watching this very interesting. I think you should have mulched the snakes along with the brush. What a timesaver your machine is.Good job.

[@idigit4967]

Thank you for watching Shirley! Glad you enjoyed!

[@johnmpolk1383]

Oh, you got one, my bad😁

Now there will be no shade when they go fishing

[@bogthing1]

Geese? Why, the Mag-10 of course, works equally as well on serpents. Looks great!

[@idigit4967]

oh man! 10ga! That would be a kick in the shoulder for sure! But I bet it would put some serious holes in those geese too LOL! Yeah the pond turned out great and the owner was super happy! I'll be back out there to cut that ditch soon as well! Thank you for watching and commenting William!

[@MammaBear]

Where do the snakes go after you clear the pit

[@idigit4967]

They probably go off into the surrounding grass and forest, there was plenty of area around where we cut for them to go, they'll have no problem out there! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@rickodell884]

Won’t you have to spray or that will all grow back vary quick. I was raised on farms in Kansas you would be grinding hedge trees.

[@idigit4967]

I agree Rick! If it is not sprayed it will quickly regrow for sure! But now that it's cut maybe it will be easier for the owner to maintain! Thank you for watching and commenting!

The title should be, LOOK AT THESE MONSTER BASS taken from a overgrown pond in S.C that hasn't been fished in YEARS

[@idigit4967]

LOL yeah I bet there are some big fish in there Keith! Might have to find out when I go back to cut that ditch soon! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@susankenney7536]

Why would you not of used a chain saw to cut the bigger trees first. We cleaned out around our pond. First used a bush hogs on then a chain saw to take out trees we don't want. Saved some for shade. Then took the hush hog and it cleaned up nicely. Seems it would of taken less time to of taken out the bigger trees.

[@oldhawkins]

Use a drone to help get an estimate of how much is left and price.

[@ronniekotler9265]

I wonder why a land owner let the pond get into such bad shape in the first place?

[@idigit4967]

I think he just got behind with maintaining it. He told me he used to cut it himself but he's gotten too old to deal with it recently and needed me to handle it. Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@richardhutchings921]

How much debris blows out the chain side of the head. How far does it throw it?

[@idigit4967]

Great question Richard! A good bit comes out for sure, you can see that in some of my more recent vids actually. And if it feeds in through the front side and gets shot out underneath when mulching on the ground, it can throw stuff a good ways, 10 yards at least! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@jg413]

Would that chip up a dead standing 10” Nobel Fir?

[@idigit4967]

Yeah probably. I've done some pines that were 10" at the bottom and some 8" gums as well. Also mulched a standing dead cedar the other day that was easily over 12" at the stump. If you got any other questions about this mulcher let me know! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@casmithc2]

Where are the snakes?

[@richardhincemon9423]

[@kennethsmith8810]

Way to slow with the mulcher, too much wasted time.

[@jwr07]

What a freaking mess. Not on my property.

[@idigit4967]

Sorry you feel that way Jay. You expectations for the job may not be what the client's expectations were and for the client he was very happy with the end result so that's what I try to do. But I understand this expectation isn't for everyone and that's fair.

[@jeffbailey7765]

Really good job brother. It looks awesome

[@idigit4967]

👍

[@robertcaudill2544]

That ditch was created when they made the pond. Bulldozers pushed ground up along that whole side to create the pond. Your actually walking on a man made levy for the pond. The other three sides are natural descents. The levy is a great fishing levy. We made hundreds of these ponds in Alabama in the 70's. I'm sure they are all grown over as this one was. Nice job! You cleared it off really nice for the guy. He needs to have someone come in now repair the holes especially in the levy. Then spray, till and seed the entire levy to firm it up! Then stick that pond and get out the fish fryer!

[@idigit4967]

Thanks for the info Robert! That was very informative BTW! Yeah the customer was very happy with the finished project and I thought it looked great too! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@bobgrier3103]

I get way more from the videos in time lapse vs real time. I’m more interested in the overall scope of the work and what it looks like when done.

[@Aby7799]

Try out 2x speed works like a charm.

[@idigit4967]

Got it, thanks for the feedback Bob! I have some who like the real time, some who like time lapse so I try to mix in a healthy dose of both! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@nunyabiznus4366]

Something very relaxing for me to watch these videos of you whacking everything down, clearing it out. I thoroughly enjoyed it and wow! The work you do is quite amazing with those machines!

[@satan2133]

Looking good. Get yourself a 18v or 20v grease gun. I had a 270 hitachi that squeaked like that plus it makes greasing almost enjoyable. Keep up the great work, stay healthy and safe from Alberta Canada 🇨🇦

[@rollinlowford]

Doesn't Satan live in Ottawa? lol

[@idigit4967]

Yeah I have a 20v DeWalt battery grease gun, I've had it since I bought my old John Deere 35d mini excavator and it works great for quickly greasing these machines! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@karenheartoriginal3783]

Gosh this has been an exciting project and it turned out super great❣️Anxious to see if you'll be doing the ditch...cannot imagine what y’all might find in there 😳😬 Thanks so much for sharing these vids with us 👍👏

[@idigit4967]

Hey Karen! Yes we will be going back to do the ditch as well in a few weeks so stay tuned! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@anitajinfla9762]

I might have missed this, but what does the client plan on doing with the pond area cleared. Look like he has a lot of land. Guess that pond was just a hidden gem in the middle of BFE. Lol Im recently a new subscriber... Not sure why I like watching but its interesting for sure. You do a great service and great job. Nice to see when people take pride in their work.... It shows! Congrats on 22k subs... 👍😊

[@idigit4967]

Thank you! Super glad you found the channel and are enjoying the content! I appreciate you subscribing! I am not sure what the owner is going to do with the pond now that it is cleared, I think he just wanted it mowed down before it got too bad and even more expensive to mow down. Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@anitajinfla9762]

@@idigit4967 Ahhh ok. I guess its better to be cleared of course...around the edges. Looks more 'tidy'. Ya know, before I found your channel... I never knew such equipment existed! Amazing machinery. I dont get out much from the suburbs here in Jaxville! Ha! I appreciate your uploads as many of us seem to do. I used to think they took a bulldozer and uprooted all that brush, small trees.. . Took the claw to gather all that brush.. Put it in a few huge dumpsters and hauled it off for wood pulp at the paper mill.....then smoothed it over with top soil....... So cool though. Now I know!! Lol. Carry on!!! 😅😊

[@rosemariemartin4807]

I have enjoyed this project very much. You remind me of a hairdresser whose client walks in feeling ugly and depressed and then afterwards walks out proud and full of pep. You make a mess look like a park. You should be very proud. Anyone that gripes about details of what you do has never done that kind of work or has too much time on their hands.

[@darrenswoodworks8695]

Looks great, But wouldn’t the MTL make quick work of all that brush leaving just a few feet near the ponds edge for the Masticator? Getting more brush chopped with the same amount of time spent on the job? I’ve seen you turn bigger trees than that into mulch PDQ with the MTL.

[@idigit4967]

Great question Darren! Yes the MTL would have handled a lot of this brush out here, really anything up to about 4-5 inches but it takes a lot more time for that rotary head to cut and mulch larger material. For anything over about 1" the mulcher is just way faster and cutting and processing that material. I could have used the MTL but it would have just taken a lot longer is all and I wanted to be more efficient! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@annparten9884]

It is fascinating to watch you do these clearings!

[@annareich4176]

Leaving a few chioce trees for shade would have been nice considering the air quality and wildlife. I can understand wanting to get it under control but it really boggles my mind to want to get rid of ever tree . Just my opinion. The machine made quick work of it .
