Bucket Cam!! Nice view on loading the haul truck. It’s really interesting how you plan moving dirt in so many stages like moving dirt to get it out of the way, moving dirt to make a ramp, moving dirt to take out the old pipe, moving dirt to pack around the new pipe, always being as efficient as possible, and the beautiful results don’t show all the planning that was needed. Your videos do. You are making me a big fan of that orange clay!

I’m just impressed at how much work you got by yourself, Chris! You always give the customer a First Class Product, I guess that’s what you would call it! lol But satisfaction always guaranteed from what I’ve seen! All the equipment and Barney worked great for you Chris, the packing job looks amazing brother! And always thanks for sharing Chris, your videos are always appreciated brother!

Whenever Chris jumps into another machine, it reminds me of the Terminator movies. You see his brain run through 6-8 different gear/control patterns like Arnie with the Harley or the semi. That is one big overflow assembly & a lot of work installing it (properly)! With what you've done with the shoreline, the head section & now the overflow, you're getting closer to the end. Not there yet & that's good because that means 2-3 more videos, yeah!

@@tomrogers9467 I would agree for the most part, especially in the city I come from we'll call it Cook C####y, operator not including benefits is at $51.25 per hour, benefit package is another $44.00 per hour, since the site had less than 10 people on site at any one time no on site supervision or safety person was needed, and traffic control for the one delivery could be handled by the operators! Now then setting of the pipe would have to be done by union labor and not by operators. Since Chris cut out the site wide enough for the pipe no trench boxes where needed and no real safety program was needed to be submitted. EPA would have to been involved with the release of water from the pond and a water quality test would be needed and permits from the Corp. of Engineers. Desilting of the water would be needed and additional monies spent for silt fence and erosion control around the dump site would be needed.
