Fake deep cringy and a waste of time?

I love watching you work. Surprisingly relaxing and such a great distraction. Thanks for sharing!

I absolutely love to watch you operate that thing. My daughter in law think I'm crazy because I love watching people cutting grass and you and the guy that grind trees. I think those machines are amazing. I love all things done outside, I love a clean house also, but love being outside, fishing, hunting, gardening and such. I would love to operate one of those machines. Blessings

Your skill-set makes everything look so easy with regard to moving the Earth and trees. The best I could ever do is Tonka. 🤯

Every time i watch you do a pond, it cements in my head how mine needs to be redone. Its 31 years old, and small pines have grown around the edges. On my wish list is a Kubota or yanmar mini excavator. And the place to learn how to-use it.

We’re Lucky to see a Project before you Start, your Solid Progress and the Spectacular Finish.👍

I appreciate you sharing this. I recently bought property with a pond and I am trying to learn what I need to do to maintain/improve it. People like you sharing your knowledge are very helpful. Thank you

👍 Mother nature is always on the move to recover it's natural state. Anybody that wants a nice lawn, garden, or pond has to be vigilant with maintenance and upkeep. Nice project.

Looks like this will be nice after the work. Love these jobs, the before and after are awesome to see. F’ing genius idea using the thumb as a work platform.

Hello Chris I've comented before I was a laborer for Granite Const here in Sacramento calif , I can relate to every thing you do I wish I was near u so I could help u out!!!!

looking way better thumbs up shared good job

Chris i gotta hand it too you man. The fact that you actually take the time to safely plan out your plan of attack and where you wanted too place your dead fall is really neat and tidy and very organized in my opinion that is ten out of ten in my books.

Very soothing seeing Chris clearing that pond out. He lives close to me. If he get's that job at the Drive Shack I'm going to go out there and watch him all day...if he doesn't mind.

Finished pond is gonna look great, I can tell it was good once before... glad to see it coming back!!

Very interesting project, gonna be really nice when you're done! Thanks for the aerial view 👍

Its Heart Shaped.. anyone else notice.. interesting should be a nice spot. Almost every one of those trees were scarred up from the beavers.

Incredible job!!!!!! I’m glad you are clearing out all of the old dead crap. It looks very good so far! Funny that you chainsawed the pipe down and did not fall in! Great work!!!!!!!!

Hey was that pond in Zebulon?

I have never seen this kind of work being done before but I can recognize a pro that enjoys what he does for a living. Great job.

I think clearing is one of the jobs I enjoy watching you do the most. You are very mythological in what you do making it a joy to watch and mimic when I do similar work. This is gonna be a good few videos to come on this job.

Nice little project. It’s going to look completely different once you are done

I think this little pond is pretty it will be super better when u are finished with it . Like watching the dig. 👍

Ever meet a guy in the guitar store that can make any guitar sound good enough to buy. This is that level of skill. I'm really impressed.

The skill with which this man operates an excavator is astounding. It's a part of him! Love the videos.

Chris, Do you ever build larger ponds? Something in the size of 25 to 100 acres? That would be a great series of videos!

I enjoy watching your videos. Thanks

Enjoyed watching thank you for sharing Chris have a great week

I appreciate the closed captioning, thanks!

I'm learning from you... and about to clean out a pretty small farm pond that goes dry every year because the silt has gotten that high. Should be fun. :p

Could have used another guy with chainsaw and tractor to cut up big trees and drag the logs off.

Underwater chainsaw. "That's the last thing they'll expect!" 😲

You know it's going to be a good day when you hear trees a cracken. Both families well truly enjoy the updated pond, with beaver proof drain.

They had you hired when they said you could build a 🔥!

Love what you do .... you make it look so easy ... comes second nature.

I just love the way that machine is like a natural extension of your arm, there is skill then there is what you do. 👍

I always enjoy these videos, shows how strong the Volvo is and I like watching you work the machine like it’s nothing! Great job Chris!

Very relaxing to watch, as odd as that sounds.

Looks like the beavers got the bark on those big trees you wanted to keep. I doubt they will survive.

@whtelephant1

3 жыл бұрын

Probably won't survive but they can cut them for the sawmill would be my guess.

I like this kind of project, because I know how it will look after you get finished Chris! You always do a great job brother!

You make it look so simple. I need one of these machines at my place in Maine!

He's getting the job done the way he is told to get it together I think he is on top of it for sure

Its like that machine is like his arm he works it with such precise sir I could watch you work all day . This is truly amazing. Thankyou sir for sharing your work. I could literally watch this all day long

every movement isnt wasted. what a pro. i could only dream of such a fun career.

Even the beavers are wearing let’s dig 18 hoodies, love the videos

I saw the beavers packing up and leaving!

Good work Chris, surprised it wasn't softer along that back. Island will be interesting.

So nimble. You are a fantastic operator . Fun to watch . Great job and fast too

I would leave the island for future family recreation, could build a bridge and a small cabin on it

My man you use that equipment like playing a violin. Awesome work. Enjoyed watching this.

you are an artist with that machine Chris

I watch a lot of these videos. You are by far the most skilled I’ve seen 👍

I love these kind of jobs! Greetings from Finland 🤟

Love your videos keep it up. Your lucky you get to be around equipment all day.

Owner: I need you to remove an island. Chris: No Problem

Looks like it's going to be nice looking pond.

NICE JOB CHRIS, WELL DONE LIKE ALWAYS.

Your like a surgeon with that thing. Awesome

Merry Christmas and a happier safer New year seasonal greetings from Wales UK 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Ur definitely a great operator but at ur pace, u will be there for months. Wonderful educational video. Thank u sir

I love to watch your vids .I am retired operator in the UK I get my fix watching and don't miss it so much, ha ha.

We had a dam with an island on our family farm. There was a big log for a bridge and the island had some nice warratah trees on it. Trouble was that the poachers cut the saplings off to use for fishing rod holders and just for spite. As a kid I loved that island and it was a great fishing spot, especially when you were allowed to catch freshwater lobsters. I see your point about maintenance though for an island that is in view all the time. Ours was in the middle of 1000 acres and we have wallabies that are pretty good at mowing grass. They also do it for free, just try to stop them! 😀

Word to the wise: For all those watching Chris do this type of work and think to themselves I can do that....homeowners-that includes you. Let it be known that I've only seen a few people who can operate the way he does. It's the result of many years of experience, operating, listening, and learning. Oh, and having the right equipment is a must. Equipment that is well taken care of and in good working order. Like he does. So save yourself a pile of $$$$ and a big headache, just hire him and get on his waiting list. You'll be glad you did.

I don’t know where you’re from, but you’re the best I’ve ever seen. I watch you for hours on end. New subscriber and appreciate what you do. BLESSINGS...

Looking forward to seeing the completed project

Hey thanks for sharing your work. This is pretty cool.

I would love to be doing that job, you make it look so easy though its looking so much nicer. it has to be so satisfying !

The ponds in the shape of a love heart!!

That's the first water cool chainsaw I've ever seen...LOL

a master at work always enjoy your work

That row of thin trees actually looks straight. You can hear the dryness of trunks when snapped.

Chris, I'm still here years later watching, just under a new name. Formerly ; master shake. But when you mentioned crawling out onto the bucket to cut the drain with a chainsaw I was hoping you would get video of it! And as I was thinking that you were telling me you would be sure to! I love it! Thanks for the free content years long! Merry Christmas.

In my 68 years on this earth I have never seen anybody assault a 4 inch PVC pipe from the boom of an excavator twice. But it worked and that is all that counts. Thanks for sharing your video with us Chris. Ed

Sometimes I think you should have hipwaters on stand by.

Never used equipment like you do but it's so amazing you use these devices like an extension of your hands

Excellent upload. Full watched and have a wonderful day...

Nice job...like the pond...big time....wish I had that claw thing...excavator I guess...wherever you are looks nice....

Looks so much fun!

Midnight here in Denmark, and just seen another good video from letsdig 18 as I do every night. I want to know who's making the music for the drone so I can find it on KZread.

I couldn’t help but to think how comical that would of been if Jason Works A lot had been there doing the play by play commentating while u was chainsawing the pipe ... hahaha

That is a beautiful lot!

Beautiful spot

Ohhhhhh my fav, pond dredging!! 👍

I'm reading between the lines here as I watch, and it seems the beavers "went on vacation" sometime after September?

That's not bad at all. Compared to the disaster in my backyard, this is pristine.

32:10 - 34:25 has some stuttering / frame rate issues. Y'all need to toss the memory card in the pond, bury it, and get another one. Maybe write on them and figure out which ones doing it. Anyway, my jawing aside, another great vid. That soft quicksand ground is creepy and weird. Thanks, Chris. Keep up the good work.

Why am I watching this? Because it's fascinating! Love this stuff!

You take down more trees than logger wade lol

Masterful behind them controls.

Another Day, Equipment to Move, Dirt to Relocate and Lunch.😬 Sounds like a Long Check List.👍

Man you should do a full how to build a pond series from beginning to end. Love the vids.

Some chicken wire around that thing would have helped with blocking. Remove the island? That's a cool feature.

Je suis impressionnée par les projet que tu réalises surtout la finition 👍😀bon courage

You work that big claw thingy so gracefully! (Geez...cant tell I'm from the city, hey? 😄) Id have waay too much fun with one of those.

You should have said " hold my beer" before you went out on the bucket with the saw.
