Not to interested in scooping Mud out of a Pond, or pushing dirt, my 15yr old grandson does pushes dirt and loads dump trucks all day long. He loves it, so he does most of that.

The pond build finally begins! Yay!!! Now you see what I mean when I said (when you bought the Cat) the D6 would run circles around the Koma... and you would only be limited by traction. She's finally getting to do what she was designed for... moving mountains (of dirt). Waiting anxiously for the next episode, and looking forward to seeing how this build progresses!!!

May not seem like it but what Chris has done with these old machines is pretty green. It takes a whole lot of mining and energy to build big machines like that.

For the amount of machines you run there it’s a lot of work. In the beginning of the year we built a gas drilling site of about 20000m2. We had to haul of about 70k yards of moor and haul in about the same amount of of sand and gravel. My colleagues loaded out 24yd tractors with tandem dumpers with a Cat 320D and 324E. I had to push in the sand with our D6M. That took us about 3 weeks to finish. So you will have a lot of work ahead with that small amount of machines. I’m hyped for the next videos and the finished pond. Keep up with the awesome work and videos! Greetings from Germany
