Your courtesy towards other professionals is wonderful to see. Hopefully, you'll have some very hot coals to restart everything in the morning. Thanks, Chris.

Chris needs to get a nice drum chipper to deal with his stumps and brush piles. Turn it all into beautiful mulch.

Being a good neighbor is sometimes inconvenient, but it will pay big dividends in the future toward happiness without petty arguments between you and the new neighbors. Well done

Laying the logs across the pit and roasting the stumps....its Chris style Barbecue.

Chris: I'm gonna just do a small fire today. Also Chris: How high can I stack the fire before it starts falling over.

The videos where Chris digs a deep hole and does the burning in a pit where he never drives through the ashes are my favorite. I've never seen that here because most of the island is granite or sandstone. Thanks Chris.

You know if this had been a proper neighbourhood Karren that Chris would have stacked it high and stoked it hot! Respect for stopping while the concrete guys were pouring.

Makes for a short video unfortunately, but I can see it from the Concrete guys’ point of view as well. Good on ya for shutting it down Chris!! 😊

Much respect to you Chris for being understanding, good short video either way, thanks for sharing an I look forward to seeing the next video

Forever the diplomat Chris. Well done for showing consideration for others. Shows you as a responsible contractor.

Good morning from Adelaide Australia A very good morning to you Chris

Well, even a short 12 minutes Sunday episode of Chris of a dig a hole and burn pile to watch is better than no Sunday Chris Letsdig18 episode. I'm pretty sure that tomorrow's episode will be longer. I definitely enjoyed watching this one.

Concrete guys are such whiny babies LOL Says the retired concrete guy . The only thing I recall being burned when we were pouring concrete was horses . Worked at Cornell University building a building for the vet school. Right behind us was the incinerator where their experiments were deposed of. They toast a lot of horses . A few times a week we'd get to work and smell burning hide. About 11 AM it smelled like BBQ and lunch wasn't for another hour . On the street behind us a guy sold from a truck BBQ chicken . The sign where he parked said "Chicken infectious disease parking only " . He didn't sell a lot of chicken

You should get one of those combustor units that you park next to a burn pit and makes a virtually smokeless fire. They have portable ones that look like a giant dumpster that they use for disaster cleanup.

Nice of you to cut them some slack rather than 'that's your problem.' Thanks for sharing.

It's really nice when there is a limited amount of brush to contend with. Digging a generous hole to burn in is a great idea. Can't do that on large jobs with copious amounts to burn.

Awesome you are willing to work with the Neighboring contractors . Good show of professionalism

Sorry that happened, nice to be courteous to the others though. Ashes on unfinished concrete does make it a bit hard to give it a good finish.

No marshmallows for the concrete guys! Thumbs up! Stay safe! Jim

Much respect.honoring their request. Very professional.

That was a nicely contained pit fire. Imagine if it was a standard Let's Dig 18 conflagration.

I applaud your integrity - the concrete guys are trying to do a job too and you're not out to make anyone's job tougher.

Chris likes fires. I had a fire last two days from Hurricane Idelia clean up. I had 2 piles of twigs and branches and 2 cherry trees that would have filled the triple axle dump truck. Good effort to burn up what you did.

Being Courteous goes a Long Way which we’re sure you’re well aware of. 👍🙏

Do they know who they are dealing with. It is not that easy to put out a Letsdig18 fire.

I sorta expected that when I saw that house in foreground. I know you’ll get it done.

Always gotta be something to slow a job down. Glad it's not equipment issues.

opportunity to use that setup you used years ago: a fire pit with a trench out to level ground - you put the leaf blower in the trench (blowing with the prevailing breeze) and created what can only be described as a 'blast furnace'.

CHRIS YOU KNOW THAT WHEN YOU HAVE A REALLY HOT 🔥 FIRE BURNING IT'S HARD FOR YOU NOT TO WANT TO PILE MORE LOGS ON IT!!!!😂😅😊😢

ERES UN TREMENDO OPERADOR DE ESOS EQUIPOS.. TE DESEO MUCHOS ÉXITOS...

Chris you always treat people like you like to be treated! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

You should get a front end loader with a grapple rake to save your tracks on your tracked machines

Thank you and have a great day.

A nice day to have a big fire getting done

Great video thanks Chris

We must truly thank the great engineers who created these wonderful machines

Best not to stain the concrete as the customer will have to look at it for a long time. Happy customer, happy contractor. Just saying it is much better this way than just a neighborhood Karen. Should still be hot in the AM. Shame the wind did not turn.

Enjoyed watching the video Chris😊

Good call respect full and professional

why isn't the large parts of trees sent to paper mills or wood mills ? such a waste. people could use it for heat in winter

Chris your the man. Stopping your work to help the concrete guys. 😊

Hope the birthday party is still going on!

You always respect the other workers. Thanks Chris.

The ash would help in the strength of the concrete. The Romans used volcanic ash in their concrete and look how long it lasted.

I could see you were ready to pale that baby up!! Nice teamwork for sure👍🇺🇸

Nice video and looking forward to the next one!

👍👍👍😎😎😎,well you did have a good day going there,but you gotta do what you gotta do.good little video 👍👍👍😎😎😎

try a road flare, burns very hot for about 15 - 20 MINUTES, will start anything you have on fire, work your brush pile, keep folding in the center...good luck..

you could be turning all the brush, limbs and even trunks of trees into mulch. buring is bad for environment. Ontario Canada things are put into mulch and people can use it in gardens or where ever.

I've often thought about the smoke and the neighbors when watching you burn but I realized that no one opens their windows where you're working.

THANKS!

Should be enough heat in it to catch the next time you stir the fire and add more wood to burn bro. A sort video but still a good one anyway. Had to laugh when Mrs C&C said she would send you the invoice for that D7F in MiKe's live stream earlier. Safe travels. Ken.

This thumb looks pretty nice. But wonder if it can opens fully to the boom

Kind of LoL to see this; the video that got me watching your channel was the one where someone called the cops on you for burning at a project!

At least it wasn’t the fire department !! That happened to me and I got a fine 😂

Respect is key 😊😊😊😊😊

Im guessing that you guys have had more moisture, lately. A lot of the Southern States are still seeing burn bans in many counties, due to this summer’s excessive heat.

Was just watching you make some comments over on Mikes live Q&A.

you make me laugh for the last 2 days you were going to let it all dry out for a while then you are already burning lol

It is amazing how far ash will travel.

That 220 is shaking you Chris 🙂

Good morning Chris❤😮😊

Thank for the video

We will be patiently waiting for the burn😊🔥

Great job 👍🏻

200yds of concrete 😳. That’s a big driveway considering that a standard concrete truck carries 9 yds at a time.

That addee ash on the concrete. Makes for good traction!

There are about 35-40 days per year that's good for burning brush piles and about 225-250 days per year good for pouring concrete. Concrete team should have been a 'better team player'.....

Is there any of that wood that you could save and sell to people who want firewood? I saw some logs even us beggars wouldn't be choosy over. lol

we have big burn bans here in north Louisiana

Look up a 'Dakota Fire' You could easily make one with that monster machine & it burns much hotter, cleaner, and makes less smoke.

You should have looked at him with a serious look and said yes I will stop burning because I have always wanted to put my initials in 200 yards of concrete then see who laughs first!

Have you had any more snakes on a backhoe? lol

Great vid!

The burning ring of fire,, what would Jonny do🔥

Gotta love a good brush fire.

chris, do you contact the city/township before you start burning for safety and peoples concerns ?

You were on a roll to as you have said before is what it is im sure they appreciated it 👍👍😎

Best laid plans!! It’s always someone else slowing Chris down!! The burning has started!!

How often do you do track jobs on your excavators that’s a lot of tracking and Ik tracks ain’t cheap

LetsBurn18! Not to be mistaken for MS-13! - lol

The air in Edmonton is poor today from the wildfires in BC. Oh well, another day, then. Cheers.

Well, Hell !! I guess , I would have done the same thing, ONLY because they was pouring concrete, and I can see trying to fight the ashes... Well, that was a short one, guess i'll go watch the SMX play-offs !! They are mixing Supercross with Motocross now at the end of both seasons and combining both for the play-offs !! And a lot of $$$$$$$$$ up for grabs for the winners, should be pretty good races !! But, Great as always Chris !! Have a Great Sunday Evening Man, And, On too the Next !!

Our storm here today missed you to the west

You should have said.., do you know who I am??? 😂

I've been burning even on windy days I get fire going then pile tin on topof it burns hotter an lots less ashs but it u don't got tin then you cant

I just hope the other guys working on that driveway compensate you for your time loss on your worksite lol.

Okay , you become asked the Burning to Stop this Day. This make a Other Work Planing for this Day. But You have Plan B quick ready . Thanks for this Video. 😮😤

Well darn that sucks lol

Tractor time with Tim is having trouble build his pound maybe you can help him out

A concrete driveway?? Been awhile to hear of that....maybe at a business with multiple 100,000 pound machines.

Honest question. Why is it bad that ashes blow onto wet concrete? Is it just a nuisance or does it mess with the curing process?

here the tree huggers sit and wait for us to start a cleanup fire, ONE complaint and we have to stop, We went to an Airburner trailer mount, it burns with almost no smoke, completely down to ash, and keeps the bitchers away.

Ya never know what one day will bring, Oh well heads up back at it tamale.

Hey Chris, something at UTube lately smells of dead fish. I watch all your videos. Lately, for example this one right here I watched completely through as normal. KZfaq shortly after marks it as unwatched as it is right now. We know you get more credit for completely watched videos, something is seriously amiss & it seems unsavory. Love your posts, I hope you can help figure this one out, thanx.

Fires cool😂

🤔

I find it INCREDIBLY HARD TO BELIEVE, that ashes light enough to float 100 yards would do anything negative AT ALL to poured concrete. Concrete is made with sand, rocks, lime etc, how would a quarter cup of dry ashes cause a problem. Sounds like a WHINY concrete crew to me.

What stop burning 😂😂

Bummer
