The transformation of the pastures and the pond has been astonishing. Your customer is fortunate to have hired the BEST in the business. It's a great job Chris.

Chris you are so good at narrating your videos that's why I think that everyone enjoys watching you 😊. Keep up the good work and keep safe

Hey Chris if you get a chance we would love to see the progress on the big pond you did recently behind the big shop building. That was a very impressive dam

Chris is the best at pond work, he knows very well what needs to be done.

How a responsible contractor lowers the pond level. Many small projects completed for a full day of work.

How does a young buck like Chris manage to do everything so darn meticulously? Fabulously insightful and reasoned!

What a gorgeous piece of property. Wow! I absolutely love how take such pride in your job. Thank you for sharing. You make it look so easy.

If you think electric fence wire is bad, try getting a set of old bed springs tangled up in your tracks. Being spring steel, most wire cutting pliars won't touch them. Hammer and a good chisel might. However it's done, it must be cleared away, or you risk tearing out every seal in the final drives. Even less fun to replace those.

A lot of cowboys would just have carved it up and damn the consequences, nice and thoughtful approach. Good job.

Love watching you work. This was great, Chris. Thanks for sharing.

Great video, pond, and pastures look amazing .

Amazed at the hard bottom of the pond!! Beats sinking!! Liked the idea you had on the drainage ditch!! Smart idea !!

Chris i want to thank you for this channel and you sharing your knowledge and skills with us. I'm far from calling myself an operator. I've operated minis and backhoes to replace water and sewer lines or repair them. I live vicariously through you. That little kid in me says yes this is cool. I've learned a lot from you.

Another fine project Chris 😊😊😊

If anyone ever wants pond work done,Chris you're the man. Nice video Chris.

Those brush piles oughta burn hot and fast!! Nice plan on the pond drain down!

I can’t wait to see the fire

Those are going to be some “TINY” LD18 fires!!!😂😂😂 It is going to be an interesting video for sure!!

Nice little quick clearing project. Looks like you had a good crop of hay .

I expect we’d all love to see his old dragline once again clearing ponds, but I doubt Chris would want to work the old beast that hard. Not to mention how tiring the old machines were to operate!

Yeah that pond's turning out real nice wasn't much left of that island when she pulled everything off it. Good stuff. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦

Digging that drain ditch in the dam is a great demo of the incredible productivity your machine allows you to have.

I love the time lapse at the end. Please include more time lapse good job.

Really liked the time lapse. Thanks for sharing.

THANKS!

I'm really enjoying watching this series. The time lapse really adds a different perspective to your work.

So enjoying this pond rehab! Beautiful scenery. U r so knowledgeable, owner blessed to have u. God's blessings and be safe.

Chris... the pond pirate but instead of a ship he has an excavator 😂

As always chis you have made this place looks absolutely amazing you are the best out there doing it all the little details you put in your work means alot can't wait to see what you do next at the bealy good farm

Beautiful piece of property ❤❤❤

Don’t know why Chris, but I lost you for a bit. Back in hospital so I can catch up. Great to see you again.

LetsDig18!

Hi Chris wife and I like this pond can’t wait to see when it’s all done awesome job

Looking so much better.

I ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO CHRIS 😊

Very cool pond good work

Great work Chris I’d love to come see some of your work in person I’ve been watching your channel for as many years and it’s amazing love your work

Tell him to plant mint on the island 😂 That stuff will never allow another plant to grow on it!! And it would smell amaizng!

Looking good makes that property look much bigger nice job Chris👍👍😎

Job well done 👍🏻

DAMN that DAM😂

Feel like when you light that brush pile your gonna evaporate that water table down 😂

Do you know who built the pond? Good job with the pond draining. Island clearing was a snap. Good place to give the Volvo a little rinse off. Great job today. Thanks Chris. Have a good evening.

Cool seeing how to see the grade control👍

I liked the island with the trees, I’m sure it will still look awesome when it’s done though

That was one way to wash the tracks .

I don't know if it's my imagination, but when you're moving the se.i green brush, it seems to be much heavier per grapple grab listening to the motor. Love your precision and care. True talent.

First time in a while good morning everyone I hope you all enjoy your day ❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂❤

Pond site looking amazing

Nice job love watching your days at work

Looking better everyday

Looks amazing Chris.

the amount of material that bucket holds is crazy

One benefit of swimming with the excavator, you don't need to dig off the mud from the undercarriage or tracks. Win-win!

Yes

CHRIS BUILDS PONDS !!!...AND CHRIS EMPTIES PONDS!!!....😮😊...

Love this video Chris It was a very good one .👍👍👍

🇮🇪☘️☘️🇺🇸 oh I have missed the rhythmic content humming of your machines & your equally calm energy explaining precision pond creation. Back in the South land of gentle genteel patient men Praise the Lord & Pass the Ammo ☘️🇮🇪🇺🇸

nice office you have there a little dusty at times some mud here n there , blue sky trees water and no-one in sight , nice

Great skills can create masterpieces and you do it over and over my friend. Lookin great Chris!!

Dig it!

Nice work looking great Chris.

I enjoyed watching you clear off the island.

Need to bring the Bucyrus out to play!

Got love time lapse! 🥳

The teeth on your rake need to be 3 times longer. That way the dirt can migrate under the horizontal bar supporting the teeth instead of rolling up the soil with the debris. The horizontal bar and the dozer blade are riding way too close to the surface.

That job site just looks like a giant playground, couldnt ask for better.

You should have taken a drone shot of the 220 setting on the island that would have been cool. Pond looking a lot better.

Well Cant wait to see the progress in coming days

Great job on draining the pond sure is going to be pretty to look at.

Thank you and have a great day.

good pond video

Thatss going to be another nice pond. Do you ever go fishing in some of the ponds you build?

Yeah the trees are gone needs to just take out the little island all together it’s too small everything looks great thank you for sharing 😊

Well, Ya got the Tracks Nice and Clean , it looked like !! lololol.... Man, that pond looks so much better now, I know your going to have a couple Hella Fires !! lololol... Great as always Chris !! Have a Great Evening, And, On too the Next !!

love the rip rap drain , great discharge quality meet ,

You got that place looking good

Enjoyed this video bro. Safe travels. Ken.

The area around the pond and beyond is really looking nice. Once grass grows in to feed the property owner's cattle it's going to look beautiful. He'll be able to increase the size of his herd.

I would have left the island alone and allowed nature to take it's course. It's just going to return to that state again. Nice work Chris, place is looking great!

I wanna be like you when I grow up!!!

Awesome - do you have a similarly in-depth video on all your pine tree styles?

Chris, this pond is shallow enough to push the mud up to the banks with the D6 lol.

Totally awesome. Utah waving hi 👋 You made short work of all that. Impressive. Be safe 😊

Build the land up with some crush concrete would look pretty nice 👌🏾

31:20 If they do decide to have a little island it might be a good idea to have a little bridge "feature" with a large round pergola on it...

As much as you use a dozer with a root rake you ought to put one that’s only a root rake on the D6

Time lapse, really cool

Nice!

Well, that's one way to clean the tracks

I'm just an island boy!!😂

The Pond Master back to doing pond work. 220 didn`t swim too deep.

If I had your property, I would offer to buy the smallest grain silo that was at that job site. That would be a cool thing to see every day as a lawn ornament. Plus you cows, so it would complete the scenery. Just saying. 👍🏻

I can see some great 🔥🔥 soon.. job is coming along great ..

If I have the means in the future, you'll be my number 1 pick for doing land clearing on my property.

You have the best job ever. This is literally all i want t o do is operate some awesome machines. Best part of the military was being able to operate some of them as i would have never had the opportunity in the “REAL” world lol.

Can you come up to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan? we need a pond. 😂

Hi Chris the pond is coming alone nicely your doing another great job and making thing's look fantastic, just watch out for the snacks the damn things bit theres no wonder you love your aircon so you can keep the doors shut, thank's for another great video Chris.

Nutria is the size of a beaver at 10-20 lbs + and has straight tail when they swim. Muskrat is 4-6 lbs and has a semi-flat tail that snakes back and forth when they swim. Either way, they are devastating in a pond as they both do the exact same thing: Burrow long tunnels into the banks, including the dam. If not removed, they will eventually collapse the dam. Unfortunately, you can't relocate them.

Chris, do your customers watch your video's? Do they make comments? The reason I'm asking is because you have great explanations for what you're doing and why.

Yeah most of them watch the videos... Saves them trips to the job sites and a morning text or call if they want something changed

I wonder how many people Chris's videos have saved from short cutting companies. Even though it is just a snapshot of his day, he gives a lot of hows and whys
