Being there to see the mountain move in person was quite a sight. The box blades were making a lap in less than a minute as well as leaving it smooth for the next pass not leaving much time to mess with a front loader. I was surprised myself at how much dirt they were able to move quickly. Shaving off a little bit at a time it was easier to tell where they needed to load the next time around. The dirt working well was a big thing in our favor too. Randall and I really enjoyed being able to be a part of the job and drank up a good bit of sweet tea. Tim and Christy, Congratulations on 200000!!!

Hi Tim Just wanted to thank you for the info on Rim Guard. Pennsylvania will start inspecting Hay Rides, so one of the items is weight ratio of farm tractor to trailer. Our tractors need more weight, so because of watching your channel I new of Rim Guard. Found a dealer near us and contacted them, some things I found out was Rim Guard weighs 12 lbs per gallon, that is 4 lbs more than water or RV antifreeze. The dealer said he would also sell us Rim Guard by the gallon if we brought our own barrels to have filled, then we could fill our own tractors. We had the dealer fill 4 tires on 2 tractors with 400 gallons of Rim Guard, took about 4 hours. Knowing that it weighs 12 lbs per gallon seems like the way to get as much weight as you can in your tires. One rear tire on our tractors took 75 gallons, 900 lbs of weight. Thanks for all the info you provide and watching your channel made me the hero for having the knowledge.

Good job and fun to watch the team work. Started out like chaos but soon became well organized once all got the routine sorted😁 Brother uses rock bucket alot and has tons of rocks. Much faster to sift and pile em up in different areas….then you can pick up and load quickly into a trailer or haul full buckets. They back drag dirt amazingly well also. The easy way to take care of the mound was dig one small holes and stick flags in them like a putting green. 🤔

Might suggest using your Canamek laser receiver system on the box blade to do a grid contour map with the laser level. Could set the height of one of the receivers on its mount at what looks to be the highest location in the field with the box blade down on the surface. Then drive around and take readings at what appear to be low locations by judging or measuring the distance from the blade to the ground when the receiver is indicating green. Maybe flag the high points with a colored flag and low points with another color?
