MELISSA GET THE KEYS AND START DIGGING FOR YOUR POOL

Mike when you dig, always put your tracks with you, and the blade in front of you, that will give you more pulling and digging power, and you won’t be tipping the machine so much.

Don’t you just love all the engineers in the world 🗺, being thoughtful enough to develop and test all of there designs and then get them mass produced to help people with there projects like Mike Morgan’s new building and I for one ☝️ cannot wait to see this building built, all the best Mike and enjoy running your Kubota excervator .

Hey Mike, I'm glad you changed excavator position to dig out that first stump. In sideways position you were really rockin' it.

I go in flat with the ground and let the bucket use the ground as leverage with the teeth stuck in the stump, no matter how you’re sat in the machine all the weight is on the wrist of the bucket, maybe try it and see if you get what I mean

Operating excavators was always my favorite before I retired. The thumb is so handy for grabbing everything.

These are my favorite type of videos, watching you run the heavy equipment and cut up trees! Nice work, can't wait to see the pond work.

OH MY! What I could accomplish with that machine........and a Mike to operate it! Great job Mike.

Every one should have an excavator.

Morning Morgans! Have a coffee watching this morning and have to say you are a smooth operator in the Kubota X80 Mike very skilled with easy movements. Looking forward to seeing the progression. Have a day y’all! 👍😀

Wow, Mike! What a nice machine. I’d love to see a detailed video of the inside features on it. It’s great just watching you work with it and seeing technique on how to do things. This is really exciting stuff!

Mike - Nice work with the excavator. I certainly didn't think you were going to use this beast to do tree removal, but it worked great, and once again your gentle touch on the controls is a joy to watch. Blessings to you, Melissa, and the family. Hi to Hunter, Hannah, and Eva.

Absolutely! I’d love a tour of that machine. I could watch that kind of work all day.

AWESOME!!!!! I can't wait to see you fix the pond. Great summer to do it because it's been so dry.

Wow, it is DRY, DRY, DRY in western PA! I was amazed at the dust! That is pretty amazing to take out a stump and fell a tree that size in 15 minutes. Impressive. All you needed to make it stupendous was Melissa! I hope Hunter gets his BK run today. Have a day!

I can't watch this channel anymore. I'm so jealous I can't see straight. Love that machine and all you're doing.

Can't wait for this series. Going to love every minute of it!

Good job running the excavator Mike, I would enjoy seeing the function and controls. Thank you for your videos. And yea, let’s dig Chris is the best heavy equipment operator I have seen.

Great piece of kit and made light work of those stumps. Really looking forward to watching all your jobs develop over the next month a good change of pace.

Awesome unit! I’ve been impressed with kubota mini excavators for many, many years. Their line of equipment seems to improve every year at that. I purchased a used kubota M59 TLB to maintain my property and it’s been a great purchase thus far.

Mike, I think you need to do a detailed look at this Excavator. Makes me think I'm a kid all over again watching the Big Boy Machines in action. And while Mike has this powerhouse "digging" machine, now's the time to make your move Melisa, to get your swimming pool at least dug.

Wow this machine does the trick, would love to see the inside and how it works too, thanks Mike!

Watching your tube is like watching Frackil Rock always busy

I’ve been very happy with my 080, bought it for land clearing with a masticating head and shear. Building rock retaining walls is next so I’m looking for a grapple. For an 8 ton machine it is a hoss,

Morning from Illinois Mike. That kubota makes easy work of the tree removal. Can’t wait to see the building project evolve!

Really enjoyed this one. Felt like a little kid watching the worker men on the big machines. Wonder how long it will take Mike to wipe that grin off his face.

Awesome machine! Amazing how much work can get done with one this size, especially with the hydraulic thumb. 👍

Wow!!! That is one powerful machine. Made the stump removal look easy not to mention taking the tree down. Really enjoyed this video.

Oooooh! I really liked being in the cab with you while you did that! I have always wanted to driven a big piece of equipment like that, and that was so cool! This will be an amazing series of vids! Can't wait!!!

Love what your doing. Love watching it, it makes me feel like I am there

When I watch Mike use machinery like this, it takes me back to my childhood...... I can remember walking around the town where I grew up with other young boys hoping to see some kind of construction work being done. Once we found it, we would plant ourselves and just watch the guys dig holes, demolish things, etc! What a dream! Mike, when I grow up I want to be just like you! 😂😂💪💪

It is funny, I did the same thing in Illinois. I started taking a jug of coolaid to an excavator working in our neighborhood digging basements and laying water pipe. Eventually I ended up riding in the big equipment, pulling levers etc. All the other kids were jealous. What a blast. I held the stick when he shot levels etc too. A kids dream.

I got to meet you and Chris from let'sdig at Paul Bunyan that year also. I was working the Wolfe Ridge booth.

Love watching you operate it, would love to see a review of the inside. Thanks for sharing!

Excellent video as always!! On the farm where I deer hunt, I get to play with 2 excavators. The power of those machines is always beyond my expectations, and give me WOOD every single time I need to do something with them!!

Great machine there Mike. It would be awesome to see an in-depth tour of the interior. Love to see an explanation of the multiple controls that you manipulate in a seemingly effortless manner!

Good morning Morgan's. Great video.. I love watching a good operator work with equipment. Make it look like the equipment is just a extension of there hands. Keep up the great videos. Have a day. Always be kind.

Mike, that thing is a beast and amazingly quiet inside the cab.. This is gonna be fun and yes, would love to see how the controls work.

I would like a tour of the machine! It must be a lot of fun to run that thing, I’m very excited and happy for you and the build of you building! I can’t wait to get started on my shop, it’s been a dream for a while and I’m really looking forward to it happening soon!

Loved it!! Next one needs to be much longer with "A little less talk and a lot more action". lol I've watched a few of letsdig18 videos. They're pretty good. I especially like the ones where he's cleared the land and pushed everything into a huge pile and lights it on fire.

Wow, Good Memories seeing that again.

I rented an excavator about the same size a month ago to remove 14 huge stumps. Each one took 20 to 30 min to get out, the were old growth fir with huge roots. Was a really fun day! Saved a huge amount of time, I have a kubota but its too small for this type of work. The rental was well worth the cost.

👍🏼👍🏼 Kubota !! - wide open space like that, smart of you to reposition and dig over the blade, a lot less bouncing around and much more leverage than side digging.

Gotta love the big boy toys!!!

Are you kidding me! Of course I’d like to see the inside of the big machine and how it works. And you’re a real tease just showing a little of it doing a job. I could sit and watch that for hours. I’m especially interested in seeing how you repair your pond. That is fascinating to me, and I’ve never really seen what can be done. Anyway you look like you know your way around quite a machine Mike. thank you.

I drive this thing daily, great machine, user friendly and loads of power, my boss purchased this and a 5.5 tonne Kubota brand new, quality excavators just no heated seat!

That first cherry tree stump put up a fight. Mike had the rear of the excavator lifted a couple times trying to break off the roots. The machine certainly did make short work of pulling out the stumps. Can't want to see the pond dredging operation with that long boom arm.

His problem was that he was pulling/digging over the side of the tracks. He change his position and correctly worked over the front. Almost no rocking.

The right equipment sure makes the job easy great video. I was surprised how quiet it was in the cab. Looking forward to seeing it in action more. I have used my bx24 to dig out stumps it does the job just takes a little bit longer it is all about great seat time. 🙂

That's an awesome machine! Makes quick work of those trees.

This is a nice machine we are using one of those little excavator they are so handy.

So relaxing watching this. Tat machine does quick work of it

Man I need that machine here at my Farm for a long weekend of Fun! Great seeing this plan start coming together.

When you got the right machine for the job it makes it a lot easier!!👍👊

As long as the wood is being used and not just piled up and burnt or buried even if it's fire wood for this winter that's good a thing.

Today's the Morgan's 1st day of their new lives. 👍 The projects begin !God's blessings & best wishes ❤

Looks like fun, looking forward to watching the build

Good morning Mike, what a great way to start the day !!👍👍 That is one great machine you have rented and you’re doing a great job on it. Your operator skills are fantastic. You’ll definitely get lots done around there in a good fashion if your weather stays good for you. Would like to see more about the kx80-4 SS2 excavators operations so please do a video of it. Thanks for sharing with us and tell everyone hello. Fred.

I vote for a “features” tour! I’d also like to see you do one stump with a BX to show that it can be done. I would be amazed if you can do the 10 foot stump drop with the BX 😱. Love the channel.

Rodney Ross Oh, I know you can dig out the stump, even drop a tree, with the BX. I didn’t say it couldn’t be done. I just don’t recall seeing it on KZread and the time spent doing it (ripping roots, moving backhoe, clearing dirt...) is just one part of what I dread. Mike (or Mellissa 😉) might have better techniques that viewers (at least me!) would enjoy seeing. I think 10 foot stump drop with a BX would require he pick up the BX/stump with the excavator first 🤣. Just moving that stump to his root/stump pile with a BX would probably be...instructive.

Mike, I have told you this before but I am going to tell you again you are a very talented guy in a lot of different areas.

I am always amazed at your ability using the controls on equipment, from spreading gravel to running this excavator. You would think you do this every day.

Great piece of equipment there Mike...have fun operating that excavator...take care and GOD BLESS your whole family.

Yes Mike, i would like to see the inside and features of what this toy has, this looks like fun and at the same time getting work done, thanks for sharing guys.

WOW! That's a machine. You're good Mike. You use it as if it were a third arm. I've helped digging out stumps by hand. It was 50 yrs ago but very hard work.

Since you asked, I would love to have close up cab-view of you opperating the excavator. I'd also like you to give some commentary on how you approach each step of your project.

Just had an excavator here 4th of July weekend for 3 days. You can get a lot done. Thumb is awesome attachment to have. I used it to put some field drains in hay fields, dig out some stumps etc. .

Thanks for the shout out =) Love that KX080 and love the video - looking forward to the next one!

Nice machine. I have a kx033-4 with almost 300hrs on it. It’s pulls stump and cleans up good.

Looks like you have done this before, very smooth on the operation of the machine. Can’t imagine how difficult it would be without the thumb! Thank you for a great video!

Great piece of kit. Really enjoy seeing at work. Thanks Mike.

Mike, I like watching you operate the excavator as well as your tractors. You do a good job operating equipment which make it entertaining for others to watch. Keep the good work up.

Incredible machine Mike. What a difference a year makes. Last summer on your channel it was just wave after wave of storms all season now this year is completely different. I think you could have dug down 4-5 feet and still found dust !! The farmers in your area (unless they have irrigation set up) must be having an awful time with their crops this year. It’s dry here (Gatineau, Canada) but nowhere near like your area. Stay safe and enjoy the rental.

Loved watching your videos when you fixed up the trails with the Bobcat excavator a couple years ago. Keep up the great work! Love your family and videos. I've learned so much.

Wow, jealous of that kind of power. It would take me at least an hour to remove that stump with my l2501 and bh 77 but that’s with an inexperienced operator lol. Mighty dry there, now that’s the way to drop a tree! Thanks for the entertainment.
