The most impressive part of this video was you closing the locks on the bucket as easily as you did without having to use your feet or a hammer. Amazing what treating equipment right and greasing it will do.

I'd be following the pool diggers around Matt. You might pick-up a load of new jobs, just fixin' their mess.😁 Seems like a bit of a shame though. I bet the original contractors got paid and, presumably, so did you, so there's only one loser and it's not the pool guys. 🤔 Question for you: on a job like that, does the contractor usually get paid up-front, or when the jobs done?

I'm seriously looking at this Reolink security system... does anyone know if the app allows unlimited, free, online remote usage? The app looks like its free, and they seem to have made great improvements to it... but my current system turned out to be a scam where this horrible Chinese company wants to charge me monthly forever for the ability to view online. Anyone know for sure if this one is legit? Looks pretty good, I'm close to pulling the trigger.

Matt, You made an ugly turn out nicely for those folks. Good on ya. Only one beer tonight for the bucket thing though.🙃 Sure a nice peice of property they have. I like the security set up you got.

[@kevinbaker6168]

Always work fixing mistakes and messes made by someone else. In areas with lots of construction I know couples who make good pay cleaning construction sites and then do the final cleaning and prepare the interior for inspection and occupancy. Used to be contractors had a couple of kids, drop outs or high schoolers who did the site clean up, but finding and keeping good workers is hard to do.

[@karlrobbers]

I notice that Americans rarely use 4 in 1 buckets on their skid steer loaders, here in Australia there would be few if any skid steers not sold with 4 in 1 buckets. That final clean up would have been so much quicker and easier with a 4 in 1 bucket. Is there a particular reason that Americans seem to shun the 4 in 1?
