Hard to believe that this is only four days of work. Looking at that swamp you started with I would have never dreamed. Two days of ditches and start clearing and two more to finish it up. Just amazing work Chris. Well done.

That little dozer seems like to be a beast! 😄

I am mesmerized with your digging/clearing skills. I know absolutely nothing about all of the equipment you have and use, but I am so impressed in the pride and professionalism that you have. I can appreciate how when working at a job, you want make the end result to "look pretty". Love your good ole southern accent (I do know how to recognize a southern accent as I am born and bred in Georgia for 74 years) . Keep on digging!!!

I always enjoy learning the terminology used in professions and never knew the words "it out" were used so often in digging dirt but they all make good sense. Cut it out. Grade it out. Level it out. Clear it out, Roll it out. Rock it out. Scape it out. Rake it out. Spread it out. Burn it out. Measure it out. Calculate it out. Shape it out. Dig it out. Keep up the good work.

Love Chris’s work style. Fun watching someone with a cleanliness ocd playing in the dirt. Awesome machine operator

I chuckled when you said a log would take 2 weeks to burn if buried inside a pile of ashes. I believe it! I burned a decent sized brush pile which included a few logs. 10 days later I went out there to clean up a bit and as I was raking the ashes, I discovered it was still hot down below! It was a slow burn beneath all those ashes. No smoke or anything, just a nice long simmer.

It must be a real pleasure working with the earth. I can tell you enjoy it. I enjoy watching you.

So nice to finish up a long day of my work to come home and watch what Chris got done. Men, we work together, whether we worker together or apart. I think Bob Frost wrote that.

the way you do miracles on property ....I have 2 and one half acres that needs trash cleaning hole in ground and just for fun you could take down old house your work is AWESOME love and peace

As always dam good looking property,kudos,definitely dried up more than I would have thought.customer should be very happy.👍👍👍😎😎😎

hi, im a retired heavy plant mechanic from australia & i find it so very relaxing to just sit back with enjoying a few cold beers & watch the MASTER perform his magic--great channel

Chris I really appreciate you posting as many equipment operating videos as you do. I've been a subscriber of yours for quite awhile now. You keep it real for those of us who love to keep watching excavation work. Keep it going friend!

Liked that idea of spreading ashes and mixing with the scrub dirt from blading. Genius!! Of course it’s what we expect.

Considering what you started with, this looks pretty damn good! What a transformation!

One heck of a difference since you first started, great job Chris.

It really is a pleasure watching a skilled operator be so precise, yet so graceful.

Wow what a difference. Sometimes I’m still amazing at the transformation when you’re done. Long time subscriber also.

Considering how much of a swampy mess that was it's amazing how well it has cleaned up. All for the want of a bit of drainage.

WOW !!! Chris, I've been watching and enjoying your channel for years. I subscribed when you had, somewhere around 1,500 and now you are looking at a half of million subs. BIG CONGRATULATIONS, and thanks for what I think is really good editing. 😎 Handling life like a boss..

Looks great after being dozed, almost like all ya would have to do is throw down some grass seed, let it grow and you'll have a nice lawn. Your finishing work is exceptional Chris.

I love this channel. You should definitely make playlists for jobs like this that take multiple episodes so we can watch the job from start to finish easily! Keep it up man!

Just can not wait everyday thanks for the daily video.

Chris- haven’t you heard that smoke is attracted to beauty, or in your case, studliness. Be proud but don’t forget to change the filters on the Volvo’s ventilation system!

It'll be filter service time for that excavator lol

As a gardener, I'm jones'ng for that soil. I live in Tampa, where I have mostly sand, and, uh, sand. That ash is good stuff for gardening.

I can not believe how easily you turned that swampy overgrown mess into a huge clean lot!! Nice work!! 👍

Chris, will you ever get to go back to previous jobs to show us their finals? Like that shooting range with the cleared out pond? Imagine its all grown over with grass now. Cheers!

Weather your a pyro maniac by choice or necessity ,is the real question.. looks great and straight

Great work Chris!!! Looking so nice.

Thats a bit of a novelty seeing Chris working in dust, haven't seen that since last year I reckon.

Yep you are right it does look pretty good bro, all those trees and almost nothing left still burning. Safe travels

That lot looks perfect!!!!! After all of your very hard work and persistence, the result is a perfect site pad!!!! Great work Chris!

Looks very good. Burning worked well for this site. You make leveling look easy on your new bulldozer. Congratulations.

Wow you created your own pyroclastic event in the middle of a field using a loader. That’s amazing.

Chris, that is one nice dozer. Thanks for the video.

Good fire, lots of smoke. Done for today! Good job! 😎👍

After moving the fire around you could cook a few hot dogs in that bucket!

Too much fun to be called work! I reckon if we had a sneaky look at Chris's dairy every day would say Funday.

The before and after shots on this site is like chalk and cheese and all down to your awesome skills on those machines Chris! 👍🏻

Brilliant transformation of this area in such a short time.

Ya start out with a good sized disaster area and a little drainage, some selective forestry, a BigAss bonfire, and look what you get!! As usual I always start to think this time Chris has met his match, and as always, I have been wrong. I was still especially impressed when you and John got the stuck excavator out of mud deep as it was tall!!! Pretty hard to doubt you two on anything!!! Hahaha. One day,,,,,,,,, Stay safe regardless, Eh!!

You have to bring some potatoes to the work site and foil. Bake some potatoes when your having a burn day , foil them up and throw them in to fire for about an hour or so. (salt, tons of butter ,sour cream, ect......)

Amazing transition from a flooded swamp in less than a week - good to see the new dozer working well!

Chris as usual great job on the burn fire... Keep those burn fires coming.. 🔥🔥💜🤓

dang son gonna have to do a pond dredgin to get that bucket cleaned off

Chris another great day of work! Thanks for sharing. Kevin

Times working on a ash pile you are glad you have a cab. That part of the job is nicely done. Looking forward to see you map out the pond. Not a Karen in sight. How are the cattle?

Every movement is purposeful, and effective! Love to watch!

I like how Chris puts the camera at different Angles all the Time.😀. Everything burnt Right down and nicely graded.looks good Chris.your customers are Happy for the good work you do.keep Up the nice work man .

Clearing and burning is my favorite operating job.. Days of just you and your machine, wood smoke and solice..

Love the blade angle. Really like the side can angle on the dozer. That's a mean machine.

Chris, I've been watching your videos for quite some time now. You really are amazing at what you do! This job exemplifies this! Keep up the good work!

Glad we all got to see the ash cloud when you ran the dozer next to the burn pile @ 11:30. That pile in the corner will make good topsoil next year if someone screens the roots and sticks out of it. Nice building site scratched out of swampy woods.

Watching Chris's videos is like eating Lay's Potato Chips, you can't just watch one. I am watching previous videos to get my Letsdig 18 fix.

That's a lovely job you've done there.

I forgot to comment that you completely kicked butt on this site y'day. I couldn't believe how much you got accomplished.

Chris, have you ever build a rocket stove? Two holes side by side. Connect them with a hole at the bottom. Fill one with the material to burn leave the other empty. When the fire burns the chimney effect sucks air in through the hole at the bottom creating a fire that burns very hot and clean. Should be fun and a speedy way to burn with the size fires you build.

That’s pretty amazing how you trenched that property to drain the water off so you can clear it. Nice job.👍

Well Chris once again another great video and I just wanted to say again to you thank you for taking us along with you every day. And for taking the time to shoot a 15-1 hour video everyday for us to watch, because I look forward to that every morning when I’m sitting here drinking my cup of coffee. That starts my day off every day but anyway brother you and John in yawls family stay safe and keep the videos coming brother

Chris would a shifting bucket help with the debris in the bucket. Excellent work on this job.

You sure can grade ..very cool ! very hard with a smaller machine

You have done an awesome job there Chris.

Chris, the man who turns a forest into lawn fertilizer. "Bob, how come our lawn grows so fast in that spot ? " Donno honey. Good soil I guess. 😄

Superb piece of work - gotta make ya smile.

Very nice job!!👍👍

Wow! The ground has definitely firmed up!

Turning the impossible into the possible. Just another day at the office. 😎

I started the cut an fill yesterday on top! With only getting a couple dry days a week the last couple weeks makes it hard to work in the same place on the job .... i keep everything rolled an sealed up best we can ..... Love watching someone else doing the same type of work!

That's one large area !

What's up LD18 Nation? Another good clearing video series! Great job Chris! Now on to the pond! We need some more NC liquid earth vids!

Ah you make me miss runnin iron!!!! Lookin sharp!

Nice clean job looking good.....

Another absolutely brilliantly executed job. Art in motion 👌

I was waiting for the wizard to appear out of that gray black smoke, pay no attention that man behind the curtain.

Finished and looking good as always.

Lot of work draining, clearing, and grading. Sure does look great now !!

Amazing transformation From a swamp to a good looking building site Great job Great video Thank you 😊

That is wild, how all of those trees and underbrush turned into a couple scoops of powder. Gotta love science. 😎😎😎

That was fun and satisfying to watch. You’re the man, Chris! 😍

Chris have you ever used a trackloader to clean up after clearing trees? Use the trackhoe to take the trees down then use the teeth of the loader to rake up all the small bits and roll the piles to get as much dirt out as you could and then use the float to back drag everything. That's how I was taught and how I've always done it. The way you do it is basically the same thing just different tractor. Just wondering if you ever done it with a loader. Great video. Lot cleaned up nice. Stay well. -Wil 👍

Amazing work! Enjoy your channel. You operate equipment like a surgeon does a ,scalpel. Btw so jealous you got Hardee’s for lunch 🤣. Keep up amazing work stay safe

Nice 👍.way faster then a chipper. Unfortunately we can’t burn we’re I live 😢

Lookin good Chris you gitter done, be safe

My son got a radio controlled digger from his Grandparents recently. When I have a go, I think of this channel ;D

New dozer looks well great little yoke to push

Nice Chris !! You turned a Beast into a Beauty....lololol Looking really good so far !! Didn't you say , you are gonna build a pond threw the woods there ? That's going to be a really nice place when you get it all done !! Great as always Man !! Have a Great Evening.... On too the Next !!

That is a great lot nice and flat

Looks great..:-)

That's gotta be one of your best fires ..

I'm sitting in Nigeria, your vids certainly help pass the time.

Looks fantastic, very clean...

My kind of area to build in .

...lookin' good, nice job, stay safe...

looks pretty good, would be nice to see the drainage you put in to start with now you have it cleared and dried. But then I wanted to get closure on the animal hospital with the cleaning up of the dump site and didn't get that.

The governments should’ve sent you to the Suez canal you probably could’ve got the ship dug out in two days

Looks good

Awesome job Chris

Mix the wet ashes with crushed limestone and some clay and you'll have some nice geopolymer concrete.

I miss my little horse fly friend that buzzed in my headphones haha

Didn't imagine what a mess pushing a pile of ashes might be....just moving them with the excavator shovel was eye opening! 🤧 Blending them with some damp soil will keep them from going airborne. But you knew that. 😏
