Good morning Phil! I have also watched those, and the dozer/tractor one came up a couple of days ago for me too. Followed by the one up near #450 where he revisits that question with the RK55 and wonders if it is! Have a good one!

Good morning! Middle 60s here now; headed toward upper 70s today. Might have to break out the shorts for this afternoon’s tball game with grandson. I hate to blind everyone with my pale white legs though! I sure wish it would dry out a little over in the western Ozarks- the logging operation is turning into a 2-3-year project. We’re going to have trees regrowing in the logging roads that I want to keep as functional trails and firebreaks. Some fences and gates have had to come out to get trucks in and need to get rebuilt too. Just a lot of projects kind of on hold until the logging finishes. Oh well. I have a few things to do around the shed that don’t have to wait, so I’ll get hopping on those. Getting electrical service to the shed is a big one. Solving my drainage problem is also big. Fun stuff!

[@1yehny]

You look like a landscaping contractor now. Your heavy machines are more than what I can afford. I preferred videos on what subcompact tractors can do.

That turned out really nice. I thought for sure you needed a load of fill to fill up that hole but, as usual, you knew exactly what you were doing! Great job! Looking forward to Sunday, too!

Those dogs crack me up, eating the weeds and grass. Like three little kids.

[@keithbays2724]

In my area sawmills sell slabs by the truckload or bundle. People buy them and then cut them up for firewood. They are good to use to mix with larger pieces as you burn the wood.

[@MeTube1988]

Who would have thought I'd go from watching random videos researching a Kubota tractor on Monday, to be completely glued to yall's channel of videos on Wednesday haha. Really enjoy the original content and you guys seem like such a kind family! Can't wait to get me a tractor for my new property! Best wishes from Indiana!

[@robertdean9392]

Looks good!! Little bit of limestone and some grass seed.on hill and you wouldn't even be able to tell that you had a borrow pit there. Tou and the family take care and be safe!!!!

[@bendigr]

I see a lot of pools being delivered. Huge fiberglass molded pools.

[@lowercherty]

Nice thing about durt is that if it sinks you can just fill in some more

[@TheDealDepot]

Good morning great video as always! Have a great rest of the week! Love the tractor!

[@DanKlein_1]

Can't believe how well that filled in. Looks good. Kind of fun to see what is hidden 6 feet deep. I didn't expect the big layers of shale to pull out like that. It is nice after you rip something up to see it all back in place as good as it ever was. Liked how you worked it from a couple different angles to get it smooth. I removed a rock in a field one time that ended up being about 10 times the size I thought it was. but, it all back filled just fine and I smoothed it out like you did. kind of at 90 degree angles so you don't get ridges... all level. fun to watch.

[@gbsbill]

Mike Thanks for introducing me to the Idea of a borrow pit.

Mike I really like what you are doing and I am trying to get some of the things that you have, one is the sawmill. I ordered one the first of month. The mill will not be here until July. The shale is great for building road we used it here in WV. Keep up the good work it will keep you young. I know because I am 73.

[@mikeelwood8626]

Good job with clean up and a terrific job on filling the shale borrow hole! Hope you enjoyed Melissa’s meatloaf!

[@bwillan]

The dozer blade on the excavator certainly does a good job at spreading out material. Good job on that land reclamation project at the Renewable Resources Processing Center.

Before you filled in the hole, I thought it would be a good place to drive some I beams in the ground and make a rack to store your logs. That pile of shale disappeared quickly and it looks nice.

[@mikemcguire8351]

Yelp, made a nice staging area there. Thanks for sharing. 🇺🇸

[@lowercherty]

Pine slabs make the best fire ring wood. They light easily, have a nice snap crackel pop when they burn, the smoke smells good, and have lots of flame with very little ash

[@charlesmach7511]

Nice landing area you created for the logs.

[@HomeWithTheBuffingtons]

I am glad I got to see you do some more grapple work. My grapple is similar to your style of grapple. I just need more practice and understanding of how to use it better. You are pretty awesome with your machinery.

[@keithwoznek3429]

You make it look easy Mike! I know it’s not that easy, you keep getting better. Hello Hunter, I miss seeing you on the videos.

[@TheCalWillden]

That shale still amazes me. Down here in the south, all we have is red clay.

[@BillB23]

Here east of Alanta we also have granite and wannabe granite.

[@profdave2861]

It’s amazing how the land can be so different from region to region. In my general area, the depth of soil is only a few inches to a few feet over solid bedrock. However, not more than 20 miles south, east, or west of me is mostly rich, deep soil that is perfect for growing crops. I have a hard time growing weeds LOL!

[@dexstoy]

Meat loat is mine also, the wife brewed up an awesome one for Sunday dinner.

[@davidhosmer1424]

Should settle and pack in time for the pool excavation ( this summer , next spring ? ) Gotta put the the spoils some place. Yea, the wedding will be here sooner than later and there are too many things to do.

[@jamesdiehl8690]

That's the way it is here in my kansas neighborhood. I'm on a hill of layer upon layer of limestone. You either have to dig around it and pry it up, or drill through and blast out areas.

[@saintaugustine1715]

Mike meatloaf is also my favorite. A few video ago you ask for ideas on a retaining walls on this video i have notice some good size stone a dry rock stone wall looks pretty sharp and it also let the draining come trough it. For the people that don't know what a dry rock wall is, it is a neatly stack wall with the stone but no concrete it is a little more difficult but from my point of few i like it better more original and it would kind of match the Rosetta stone on your building

[@alltrashtube]

At one time you talked about building a back door road to the processing area and putting a borrow pit somewhere there. I guess that went into the to do list bucket?

As usual, another great video to watch while eating lunch! Most enjoyable is watching you run machinery, and I've already been looking for a good 4x4 tractor to use in my woodlot, (most likely orange, since my BX2200 w/4000+ hrs has been the best trouble free tractor I've owned!) since I have a friend that lent me his excavator! Looks like a few more sunny, dry days ahead...at least here in Youngatown!

Mike may not be a member of the "Operating Engineers", but he does a heck of a job!

[@tomlongbeard6071]

Look at Northern Seclusion on KZbin. He likes to buy bundled slabs, which he cuts up for firewood. That’s something you could do with your slabs.

[@bwillan]

Much of the slab wood off the saw mill has been red pine. So not the most desirable option for firewood when you have ready access to hardwoods.

[@billmorris2613]

I could really use an excavator to clean out a culvert at the road under my driveway. Long needed attention. I unfortunately had to dig with an old fashioned shovel. I do have the kubota to shovel into the bucket to haul the dirt removed. Huge help. My wife said I think you need a digger. Ha.

[@realairplane261]

Probably a lot more economical to stick with the hand shovel. Plus if you buy a “digger”, that opens the door for the wife to go spend a heap.
