    The smile on Andrews face when he first drives it is priceless

    Super excited for this video. Feels like ages. Happy New year everyone who enjoys this channel. Plus Andrew and Family .

    WoW well it is significantly better than what I expected for 4K!

    I got a chery kv12, and it came with a quick attach, flat bucket, tooth bucket, and a grabber. I've bought a rake and a ripper. I absolutely love this thing for working around the property. The amount of work I've done to not have blisters on my hands or sore shoulders is incredible
  • It's great to see progress on the multi-bay garage (looking forward to THAT video series).. Happy 2024, Andrew!!!
  • Andrews laugh when it picks up the long log was gold i couldnt believe it was lifting it either

    I never thought I would be watching a one hour commercial for a mini excavator although I have to admit it was very impressive!
  • @markjames8664
    Compared with $3k for the Harbor Freight towable backhoe, this seems like a much better buy and useful for many more things.
  • If it lasts a season with Andrew in his environment it's a pretty capable machine. Obviously not doing big jobs, but great to have to go to smaller access-limited projects.
  • @cclsjhieber
    One of my favorite things to watch Andrew do is install culverts. His attention to details is incredible, and they look great when he's done.
  • Andrew, thanks for sharing. There are hundreds of us who use a shovel, break our backs just wishing we had a mini excavator and it was fun to watch and dream.

    Great little excavator, at first I thought it was a little more than a toy, but this thing is legit, it actually serves a real purpose, it’s so small and portable, and perfect for these little jobs. Awesome video Andrew.
  • @jacksun9999
    The fact that you can move it with a lawn mowing trailer and process fire wood has me sold on it.

    It's great to see you smiling, Andrew. There's nothing like a new toy to make a man happy. Great seeing a few mates helping each other out. Happy New Year Andrew. Mike 🇦🇺
  • Finally a video worthwhile showing everything I wanted to see this machine do. Thank you
  • Andy that was worth every penny of $4K. You might think of Fabing up a 3/8ths metal bracket to hold a counter weight, use plow pins to attach on the back. Mock one up out of cardboard for pattern to trace on the steel, cut with plasma machine, tac and weld it up.
  • @kingfloopy
    I bought one of those last year. It's been really impressive so far. I picked up a full set of attachments for it last month.
  • @bahaar5215
    I was just wondering Andrew disappeared again. Then a notification popped. I guess I have to watch before going to bed.
  • @barrettdent405
    Watching Andrew rodeo riding that little excavator trying to strap pull that log was priceless! Good workout for that little machine. Definitely harder than most people would probably be willing to push it. Andrew, don’t ever change! Great vid!

    Nice to see the garage work going on at pace, looking good Andrew 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
