Dudes a maestro on that excavator, makes it look easy but it takes many many hours in that thing to get good at it and a lot of people will never be that good, ever.

Thanks!

Reminds me of our situation. Got a great deal via family on an older house and decided we were at least going to have an amazing yard and irrigation system. 😂🎉

Your dealer did you a solid on that attachment. Having great relationships with other businesses pays off

I used to own my own bobcat. Rented one of these to finish reshaping my yard. A year later, had a lot of compliments that my yard looked like I laid green carpet because it was so smooth. Really enjoyed using the lawn rake.

The tilling and Harley rake attachments are new to me. They're sure "slick". Very impressed with what they can do. Quite a satisfying video. God bless.

You make me tired just watching your videos. Enjoy your youth, strength and energy because when you get old it goes away. No matter how much you want it back it's gone forever. So, I'll just enjoy other young folks being young and healthy. The yard looks great.

Sure, but as you get older the negative consequences of hard drug use get less, so its way easier just to trip the fuck out and get to work...

Excellent work, great video. It makes me want to play in the dirt even more, it’s so much more fun when you have big people toys.

What a mess of a yard, very nice job cleaning it up.

Nice job separating the stuff you pushed back. Seen so many times people cram it in a big pile and walk away.

What a difference between before and after, great job!

I picked up my T66 in January. I'm not a contractor and its the first time I have ever operated anything like that before. I use it to maintain my two campgrounds along with my personal property. I absolutely love it! I have been wanting to get one of these power rakes for a while now to do exactly what you are doing right now.

We use a similar process for seed/sod prep. Harley Rake/Soil Conditioner first for the larger rocks/roots, followed by the FFC Preparator. We've use the landscape rake attachment before both work great for finish raking.

What a transformation. Great job.

Looks great - nice work!

The harley rake on the front end of a skid steer is the jam.

You need to add a grapple or grapple bucket to your attachments. It will save you so much time you will be amazed. We bought one of the rock-rake grapple buckets and it works so much faster when dealing with old yards like this where there is all kinds of rock, concrete, bricks etc. laying around. Cuts prep time before power raking by at least 4x.

Oh my god that thing is amazing I wish we had a place up here for me to rent. so far I’ve had to buy my apartments the price isn’t real bad it’s the cost to get them to Alaska . Last year I bought a auger and it was $2000 in shipping

I bet you when the yard was taken care of that was probably a pretty yard overgrown now needs to be trimmed back, reminds me of my dad yard

Bro you did an awesome job on that property. The grading cld have been better, but good job on the property.

The owner had some nice trees and plants. When everything grows in , it will be beautiful. And of course your work was awesome. Didn't look like the same property.

If you have two machines and two operators, use the mini as the broom and the bobcat as the dust pan ...... works very well and fast.

Please bring us back to see what it looks like finished. Please, I wld love to see it.

Guys from the countryside are better, more fun, better company. Atte, a New Yorker.

Hopefully they maintain the property and don't let it turn into a jungle like it was before

Stick to only going forward with the harley rake and it will be much better. Good work.

Would love to see what that yard looks like now, after the owners have replanted and new lawn

That skid steer can work like a mini bulldozer.

Don't why topsoil was needed, that was raking up nicely. So what will the owner do for vermin - rabbits, moles, badgers, mice! Bain of my life and no stock control fencing for deer. Love to see how it looks now. Machinery performed well, no question and a great video. Now the work begins with tree management and that lawn mower!

I call it a rock hound there amazing

Site should have been sprayed with pre emergence, mowed and cleaned up before that machine was ever on site. Not the way we would do it. Stumper bucket and bucket with teeth needed.

Cool video, but I would have cleaned the debris up and hauled it out. Then brush-hogged everything, then raked or tilled it, then leveled. Long grass and brush is hard to deal with while trying to grade.

Looks good but was it a good idea to bury all that brush?? When it decays you’ll have quite a bit of settling.

Should of stuck with the harley rake and used your rock hound for picking up the piles after. Would of turned out alot leveler. Lot of work there tho. You did good.

Unfortunately harely rake was on rental, I got my rock hound a week later and I could only bring so many implements on the tailer. this location was 40 mins away. Thanks!

Great video. That is a lot of work.... I have a large yard project that will be about 3 acres of that with pinky sized popple trees to be ground down also. That and sticker bushes. That is how I found your video which is very educational and I know that is a lot of work to go over and over again. If you wouldn't mind I was curious of about how much you would charge someone to go in particularly pick out all the garbage weeds out of their yard bring in black dirt and grade it all to perfection like you did. If I had to guess, I am on the cheap side and do stuff like that by myself I would guess at least $10,000. Am I in the ballpark? It could even be more in my opinion. What a great job you did on their yard 👍 and that big tree that was laying there somebody would probably come and take that for free for firewood. And I see you did not go around their septic tank with the Harley rake and I'm not seeing any clean out pipes or drain field. I'm sure it is all gravity fed drain field since it is going downhill.

@CarlsonSonLandscapingLLC

Thanks! I generally don't disclose my pricing, but for what I do I am usually just above the rate of daily rentals for the equipment that I use in my area (machines, attachments, trailers, etc). I did stay off of the septic tank area as I was unsure of how old or in what shape the tank was in. Didn't want the machine to go through it!

did you find yourself tilling up NY areas with roots? I am grading a property with a bunch of roots from pine trees scattered on the property and as soon as I starter grading, I started exposing all of these roots. I was wondering if this would help fix some of that problem by maybe tilling them up.

You need to invest in a rock bucket so you can pick up those kind of rocks

Cut up the wood and have fires or sell it to someone that would use it…. Don’t just let it rot away… my uncle had his woods cleaned up by the local saw mill…. For a price…. Lots of work he did not need to pay to have done but got paid for it… that’s smart business….

Nice ferns and firewood there. Were you able to work over the septic drain field?

Great video. I'm really impressed with how well the rake worked in those weeds. Did you find yourself angling it much? I'm thinking about trying to build a power rake and am wondering if it's worth it to make it angle or if I should just keep it straight.

@CarlsonSonLandscapingLLC

2 жыл бұрын

The rental I had was fixed straight, so no angling for me. An angle one would be really useful though and what I would buy. Lets you windrow and push material more accurately.

I'd take that landscape rake back to Bobcat and have them put 45° or 90° elbows on those motor hoses and clock them to where there's zero bind on the crimp fittings. I realize they helped you out with a generous discount on that attachment, but those should have been engineered better. Way too much bind on those fits by using straight couplers even with no pressure in them.

@CarlsonSonLandscapingLLC

2 ай бұрын

Yea, I have to still throw some 90s on it, since I am mindful of the interference. I think the main issue is the 6b is the recommended size for my machine. The 5b I got (due to deep discount) is just a little too narrow (made for the next size down machine), so the hydro motor hoses line up perfectly with the quick fittings.

Nice work, it really looks great! When doing jobs how far are you willing to travel?

does your t66 come with a spoon engine and a motec system exhaust?

So I’m an excavation contractor, and I have a question about Harley rakes. If your churning up/grinding up all the sod, weeds, debris, and smoothing it out….won’t the land grow back what you just pulverized, specifically all the weeds, crab grass, dandelions, clovers etc?

@jackfoxxx68

Жыл бұрын

The rake does a couple of things. It will relieve compaction and then grade the property to its smooth. Then you can plant fresh grass and start a lawn care program to control the weeds. Weeds are a constant battle and will need to be managed regardless.
