  • Hey Chris, I know where you can get another mat but you gotta find it in this pond some guy was working on the other day.
  • Being born and raised for most of my 76 years on a limestone coral- based Island, BERMUDA 32N64W, with very few ponds, in the valleys at the base of natural watersheds, I find this moving of 1000s of yards of mud fascinating ! Our red soil originated from the Sahara, and we are currently receiving a fresh dusting on our surrounding ocean at the moment. We have no rivers or streams, and catch rainwater on limestone shingle roofs, and store it in underhouse cisterns. Appreciate your thorough explanations and videos of how you deal with TOO much water !! LOL. Thanks for your time !

    Now the two for one takes years of practice. Like clearing a stream with mud in bucket and grabbing a mat all at the same time. Then dropping the mat and then the mud. Now that's talent.

    Wow, Chris revealed another trick he employs to improve his process. Today he was getting a bucket of mud and a mat and placing the mat and then dumping out the mud! Neat trick.
  • The beauty of Chris's channel, not a bunch of 10 seconds clips slammed together, so we get a nice long video an explanation, an actually get to watch the skill of his expertise put to use, awesome video Chris, gonna be a sweet project, you got some awesome pond rebahs goin, thanks for sharing 🌲💪🇺🇸
  • After watching Chris for so many years and see how effortlessly he runs an excavator is inspiring. He has reached that Zen level where he doesn’t even have to think about it on a conscience level. He thinks it and the machine does his bidding. I rented one last year to redo my septic field and it was comical. That experience made me even more impressed with Chris and all operators who can achieve that level of productivity

  • @DadzorRules
    This looks like a great and very enjoyable project. I can hardly wait to see it done. Meanwhile, I am really looking forward to watching you do it.
  • Absolute genius ,the way you were digging that ditch and picking up the mats at the same time MASSIVE SKILL !
  • @actuallowroller
    Another fantastic video! Excited to see the next phase of this job and the continuation of the 10 acre pond! Thanks for taking me along.
  • @crackstp
    Put all those sticks and mud in boxes, and sell them as Ikea log houses!

    One more thing you could do while editing these videos, is open google maps, zoom in to an are, and point a pointer where you are working, then take a screenshot and put that picture up at the end of your videos.

    Beavers bring in a lot of wildlife! I love your videos. Been watching for about a year now. Happy your restoring the older rigs. Helps to keep some of the best built from the scrap pile. And gets away from computer controlled rigs with faulty environmental controls.
  • Chris can take anything and make it picture perfect it don't matter how bad it looks. He's the man!!!!
  • @graceangel5146
    That's a mind boggling amount of dirt to come out. Where is is all going to go? I am looking forward to the transformation!
