finally a man made pond that isn't perfectly round or has straight lines. nice to see a natural look

I thought to myself so many times during this project..."where the hell is he going to get rid of all this material?!?" Great job. Beautiful result.

You sir are very good at operating! It’s always nice seeing a efficient operator

Such a huge work has been done, and even alone! My admiration! It turned out very beautiful. When all the shores are covered with grass, it will look like a creation of nature, and only the initiates will know that this is the work of golden hands.

You can find no better video than watching a skilled machinery operator going about their day. Love it Thanks for the enjoyment

Man thats the nicest self made pond Ive seen and easily.

Колоссальная работа! Смотрел на одном дыхании с замиранием сердца! Такое великолепие получилось!

Best design I've seen so far in YT. I'm a fan of lake style ponds.

Lots of work, lots of dirt. But it’s beautiful,the pond and surrounding area. 👍👍😊❤️👏

Отличная работа. Отличное место для отдыха и рыбалки. Завидую.

This is the most beautiful man made pond I have ever seen! Gratz brother! It's amazing, you have some serious skills! (from an operator to another)

It is a kind of land reclaimation project!! From useless to usefull land-use.I did something like that & every seasons attract hundreds of wild ducks & also the nesting ground.Lovely to watch them especially after a heavy rainfall as the small fishes swim toward the Walter inlet.Furthermore with such works, the value of the property enhance drastically.

Wow, I can't believe you didn't sink the excavator. you are very good and brave.

Beautiful and excellent work and finish!!!

You are a master! I'd give anything to have a piece of land like that and sit on the porch and watch you work your magic! Georgeous!

Spot on creating that seal is most important when constructing a dam… that is where a lot fail

Ребята молодцы озера просто велеколепен

I think Sade wrote the song "Smooth Operator" about this guy. Damn! It's so nice to watch people that just excel at their jobs. This is guy is a master. I couldn't stop watching this.

Thank you for the thorough work, the diverse perspectives and the comprehensible work steps. I really enjoyed this video!

The only difference between men and boys is the cost of their toys. Both men and boys also like to play in the mud, and the snow, and the rain. The only thing is some children grow up before their parents do. One thing both adults and children need to learn is how to share. Thanks for sharing.

It's a beautiful thing! 👍

Lot of Hrs of work,Great work looking forward to seeing done.Fish Time!!

by far the nicest pond build i have ever seen and you are a master at material management!

Amazing skills and a great watch

that soil is gorgeous

Как это возможно?! Это титанический труд, обычно говоряь выкопать ямку и застелить мембранной. Браво!!!

I must say that It was totally mesmerising watching U wrk so efficiently at your craft and not wasting or double handling one bucket whilst U were at it and by far the best excavator/bucket operator that I've had the pleasure of witnessing and the finished product was absolutely amazing so gd on U mate👍 n showed everyone else how it's done😉

Now you need plants that can cleans the water and make it pure ❤ I learned from the old guy making natural ponds and swimmingpools.

looks great, great job, I have developed peat properties, I noticed if you drop the water level 2 feet then the surrounding lands are much dryer even in wet season, for these properties I start with a deep hole and trench everything to a hole to be pumped, for the water source make small ditch, try to divert off property to reduce pumping costs, by doing this everything drains and a lot less hours playing in soup, the ditch can also be located away from the pond and once pond is completed then divert the ditch back to the pond, also by increasing the land elevation as much as possible with a very slight slope to the pond reduces risk of deterioration and increases the amount of lands that can be used with equipment.

Looks beautiful 😍 good job

Thank you Nice job !

Такое великолепие получилось!

Beautiful. Watched the full video. The pond is not big enough. No matter how big it is, it will never be big enough. 😂😂😂. I love big big pond. Thank you for sharing.

Sir! You are a master in your craft. It looks beautiful

Best pound i ever seen , amazing job , my dream a fishing pound like this one ❤❤

super!👍👍👍

the topsoil looks great!

Very well done

You did a great job!

The shore "sculpting" was impressive.

I just found your channel and subscribed after seeing this amazing transformation. That beautiful pond has been hiding under that ugly nasty swamp for so long. It just took someone with the money and an operator with the courage to take on the project to find it. The finished product is absolutely amazing. I never would have expected the pond to look so nice when I saw what you had to start with. Great job!

Well that cleaned up nicely good Job 👍

Beautiful

This is one of my new goals in life. Find some land and build a lake! Lol. This would be so fun to do!

Your site is addictive

very cool handeling!

Beautiful, third time watching. Thank you for sharing.

Great job and video, thanks.

Hi. 1st time I’ve come across your page. Love the pond. Goes along with the land area, not just an oval or long rectangle pond. I’ll be back.

That’s some fine levelling with your digger there mate.

That looks beautiful, job well done ! (I could use that topsoil!).

Oh man, that looks like a nightmare of soil to work on, great job

Nice job

hermoso

I've been digging, pushing, hauling and everything a guy can do with the earth for 25 years, great job sir, smartly done. Why is the hood open all the time? Over heating, I don't know, but great job

thank you for not ruining this awesome video with stupid music...really, thank you.

A brilliant job, well done guys. Out of curiosity how many gallons & machine hours were involved. I drove both machines back in the 1980's. Thanks for sharing your project 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I'd be tempted to open up the area where the bridge is, so it looks like one large lake and then build a larger bridge! 😊

Quite the talented operator bud Now if I where rich, I'd buy new, have ya down to teach me, and tag team a humongous pond! We'd have to get the Pong guy too

You have really nice soil there!

I'm digging your channel!

nice.........

Wow, natural looking pond, so much patience and hard work. How long did it take to finish it? 👍

are you going to dig out the other side at sometime? the pond looks really good

Hi I’ve just started to watch your videos you do great work and amazing results there’s just one small problem I don’t no where you put your camera when your in the cab but when your swinging from side to side it makes you dizzy it’s to fast is there anyway you can sort this many thanks but great job though 😊

we also put 10 gallons of very strong collidal silver into water has kept it very clean

Does the Volvo A20 go faster with those racing slicks on??? ;)

Awesome work! What is the water source for this? A creek?

Like dado👏👏👊🤝

neat

we have the same slop you have . we have had issues with sides sliding back in as only used a dozer . 2 years ago used a hoe and staying firm , we are east of winnipeg manitoba canada

awesome job ! where are you located beautiful country side.

A lot of this project could have been done with a bulldozer. To be able to contour the land surrounding the pond like this; takes some serious mad skills and hundreds, if not thousands of hours of excavating experience!!

only men can dig a hole fill it with water and be amazed by it for decades after

👍

looks like big job for that rather small excavator

Grate project well done. Would liked more chat to explaine what and why you were doing. Don't like it all on fast forward . Cut to real times and talk to me otherwise it gets boring. Did like the way you worked. Len. Hampshire England, good luck.

Amazing project. Would love to have enough land and money to have something like that. If I ever win the lottery, I’ll give you a call 😂😂

The dusts have to be wet went you dig? I always see there some waters.

I was thinking the same as Billy. Where is the material going but I was also thinking how in the world did you not get stuck.

Beautiful. Is it your pond?

Someone is really handy with the escalator.

Hummm I would add more features to it bigger lol make a cove

You don't need any sort of pond liner or cement with a big pond? You dug down to the ground water?

first time i saw sculpting with excavator ...

Czas wpuścić aligatory

👍👌

Eine sehr gute Vorstellungskraft des Baggerfahrers zum Modellieren des Teiches und der Umgebung. Habt ihr vorher eine Zeichnung oder ein Modell angefertigt?

Would a big dozer be a better tool for the job?

😍👍🙏😍

I would like to know how much fuel this project used?

Time for fish

18:48 that’s better.the camera not goin back and fourth

Escavatorista con i controcazzi

You make another video of you dredging the other part of the swamp. And connecting to that pond. But don't destroy the damn dig a hole in the center amd put a pipe through it to keep both ponds full

Magic hands to not get stuck in all of that....

How big is this pond?

How many acres is this pond?

En France impossible de faire sa . Pas moyen de toucher à une tourbière.
