That tilt bucket is quite the tool. It allows you to showcase your skills at running equipment. The coordination of the right and left hands is a premium skill to have.

I was thinking Mike's such a good guy helping his sister out. Then I realized she was doing Mike a favor by providing the canvas for his art! 😂 that bucket is sweet! Enjoy!

I recognize that reaction you are having. It's the appreciation of getting the right tool for the job that is particularly sweet when you have first struggled without it . I also love how your learning curve for controlling it is sooo short! I had as much fun watching you as you had doing it!

The excitement in your voice was overwhelming!! Bet there was a smile on your face the whole time. Kudos to you too for being such a great operator, I wish I was half as good.

Great upgrade! @LEVI - it was nice to meet you in person at the local Sheetz.

Always good to spend some quality time reading manuals. You can often find really useful things that you never would have guessed your equipment could do.

Authorities are still searching for Mike Morgan who was last seen reworking the ditches of his sisters driveway. However, there have been reports of other roads in the area having been reworked. Stay tuned for future updates.😎😂😂. Enjoy yourself! You are so right, the right tool for the job makes life easier. Stay safe!

If I was having that much fun I'd probably do both sides of the driveway from one end to the other!! COOL tool, workin smarter not harder!

Could have the trailer or the big ford bump along side and haul that stuff over to your meadow where you dump those stump of course that means your road has to be built or to the side of burn pit hi from the north Saskatchewan

Nice job with the new bucket in my my many year of road work spent a lot of of time in a Gradall ditching and finish work your a great operator. I enjoy the videos of you and your family thanks

Awesome attachment! Memories of My first dump truck jobs in Syracuse, N. Y.. Working with Ole Doc doing finish work on the shoulders. He used My truck as a material stock pile. He operated a Gradall 5000 to groom the shoulders ready them for hydroseed. Like You He was an artist with His machine!

I was listening to you whilst making coffee and cleaning up the kitchen and couldn't help but smile listening to your excited voice. That is a very useful attachment and you operated it like a pro right out the gate.

I want one!! great tool! I would have to knock down the piles on the other side of the driveway myself.

This new tilt bucket makes your excavator more flexible, able to do more things. I'd like to see how this new tilt bucket would do on mucking out your pond.

Mike, of all the attachments you have for your machines, that tilt bucket has to be the best yet. It's so versatile. I noticed that when you showed the in cab views in the latter part of the video that you had changed your plan of attack. By clearing the bank first and dumping the spoil resulted in fewer passes, and that's a result. As the old saying goes, Practice makes Perfect, and I don't think you needed much practice, because you know the machine so well, and just had to get used to the new piece of kit on the end of the stick.

I was thinking of 79 and 7o at Washington P.A. l traveled that road for the first time in 1980. They were working on it then, and still working on it. I think it's only about 5 miles long there. Like your tilt bucket. Keep them coming.

What a great attachment. A true game changer when it comes to ditch and grading work. I can see that finding it's way to the WV property for doing some road work down there. Hopefully the rental machines can handle that type attachment. Thanks Mike and happy to see it meets ( or exceeds) your expectations.

Them buckets are a game changer for sure. Your videos are fantastic, your production, is TV quality. No matter how many try and copy your style your always raising the bar. Well done.

Another win for the Rexcavator, and the tilt bucket! Mike, great addition to the tools. Looks as if you have mastered this one. Growing up on a dirt road I looked forward to the road grater that would clean out the ditches and scrape the road. Nice memories…

Right tool for the job makes a difference! Hate to see the rock being removed but you can always get more. The tilt bucket makes a huge difference. Nice!

Lol, I’m as happy as heck for ya Mike! You calling Melissa to ask her to come over and check that bucket out made me laugh because that’s just what I would have done if my Rosie was still with me. Keep these videos coming because it’s become an addiction for me ( admittedly a good addiction that is ,lol)😊

The new road into the clearing in the woods will have the best ditches in the state . Health to enjoy as they say in Northern Ireland 👍🏻

Good Tuesday Morning Morgan family! Can’t wait to see the finished product in WV. Summer is back for a few days here in SE PA. Have a day!

That attachment would be worthless if the operator doesn't know what he is doing. You are the artist. My father used to work with a gentleman that ran a Gradall. I swear he could butter a slice of bread with it. He was good. Keep up the good work, and helping of friends.

Mike, I would rather watch your channel than a tv show. You have a come a long way. I've been watching your channel for about 4 years. I have learned so much from you and how to work on our own property here in Indiana.I hope I get to meet you and Melissa someday. Keep doing what you do.

LOL It is like waking up Christmas morning and Santa actually got you your new bike..🚲🚴‍♀🎅

Put the bucket manufacturer on 3rd shift. After this demo they are out of stock and dont know it yet. Game changer in time for the new road tuning up on the familys. Eva would make bank in driveway upgrades over the summer. As you and Levi drop the trees, split large and use the trailer to haul for split and tote stacking. Logging is the original cross fit.

Lol ,last fall when you were working on this driveway I was talking to the screen saying , Mike you need a tilt bucket 😂. They are a big game changer for sure.

Those tilt buckets are the ticket for what you’re doing there. I think you idea about using #3 rock in the ditch is right on point. Without that, in winter you could have an issue with getting your right front tire in the ditch and getting sucked into the bank. Nice job.

I could see Townships and villages benefitting from having a mini excavator and a bucket like that compared to a rubber tired backhoe. Slick set-up

Looks like a great excuse to get some more limestone to put down - Nice finding a new tool that meets or exceeds expectations.

Good morning Morgan’s world! I’m jealous!! You have definitely gone off the rails with the stone purchases for the year. 😂😂 I’m not sure that my guess for this years quarry purchased is going to be even close??? Nice work on the ditching!!!

Very nice functional bucket. I would knock down dirt piles on other side for aesthetics...

now that thing works well at angle..a must have for those kind of driveways...only one thing about to much angle,,its hard staying on the driveway when theres ice on,, with a car..i would say you have to have 4 wheel drive there..thats steep...like that orange hood..hope your bringing some to Bunyan..about a size 42-44...great video Mike..

Really cool. Friend uses a narrow trenching bucket along his lane. That worked fine till his daughter slipped off the driveway and bent up the passenger side suspension on her Subaru. Gotta get him to watch this video.

Mike, you certainly make that look easy. You've got a steady hand. Thanks for another enjoyable video.

I can feel the excitement you have in your voice Mike and I'm sure glad you added this tilt bucket to your tool box!! I wish I could hire you to fix my driveway hill and make me a nice ditch!! 😅. Have a day my friends!!

Mike, take a photo of your bucket, write the specs on the photo and post it at your local Kubota dealer. They should have a post-it board somewhere.

And it really looks clean and water got somewhere to go now instead of running across the driveway

All jacked up with reading glasses LOL. I am constantly doing that glad to hear I am not the only one

A great addition to your equipment inventory. I could tell you were getting more used to it as went down the road. Very nice.

Nice addition to the attachment tool shed. It is a definite game changer. You made it look so easy using it for the first time. Stay safe.

Nice tool , nice touch . Now all you need is a rotator and a hydraulic tilt and angle 6ft blade .

Congrats. Now I wait for you to get the rotator on it, and you will be super excited. And you could also use less throttle, 60%.

One of the first attachments I bought for my case CX 55B was a HELAC tilt head. Absolutely the most versatile attachment you can buy for a mini excavator for grading purposes.

Definitely a game changer Mike! Love these videos like this when you show how you do things.

Sweet and smooth as Warm butter on hot toast…nice attachment…nice demo and explanation for how it works. Nice addition to your exhaustive list of work tools Mike.

Mike, I'm sure if you put a fork or spoon in place of the bucket you could feed someone. You have an amazing skill when it comes to operating machinery. I have operated a Kubota excavator and I can appreciate your skill.

A beautiful ditch, if I ever saw one...Makes me wanna be a stream of water, sliding thru there...Ok it's late...Fine work Mike..

Great video Mike you are a great operator and you got the hang of the bucket quickly and smoothly nice work 👍🏻

Mike, As much as you have to maintain your family property. I am just as excited for you as are for that bucket. Congratulations

Been wondering why you didn’t have one if those Mike. You are a natural at running it already!!

You sure make it look easy to operate this new piece of equipment. As always I enjoy your videos.

That tilt bucket is a great attachment! You did a beautiful job on that drainage ditch and I think I’m as excited about it as you are! Another great video! Please keep them coming! 👏

Hilarious interaction with Melissa! Mikes got a new toy, and Melissa says… it’s dirt!!

It's wonderful to see someone so excited to get a job done, and done right.

My Pop always said, “The right tool & a lick of sense make every job easier.” Nice work, Mike!

That’s a nice bucket. 👍 But i’m still voting for a tiltrotator. 😊 That’s problaby the most versatile attachment you can have, and it will change everything. If you have a chance at a equipment show to try one out, just do it! Best wishes from Sweden. 🇸🇪

Perfect tool for that job! And you master the skill immediately! Greetings from Sweden

Love your videos. Look forward to them daily. I’ve learned so much from you.

That looks great! The things you can do when you have the right tools. And of course, your expertise in using those tools😀

I think that you will be happy with it. It comes in very handy when with your projects.

That is a great addition to the tools you got. Love watching you use it and doing a great job.

Thanks Mike !! That Bucket Is Slicker Than Greased Lightning!! Keep Smiling On!! 😄👍👊❤️

I know the excitement you are feeling having a new tool that makes the job easier, and less time-consuming, just like these new battery-powered nail guns. For years we had to haul out the compressor, hoses, and nail gun, just dragging around the hoses was a job by itself. Now you just have to make sure you have fully charged batteries and you are ready to nail.

That ditch looked like it had great soil in it. You should save it and put it up in your new field. Also, how about a V bucket designed for ditches?

Pond banks and the dam area……perfect tool !cleaning out the silt where the stream comes in…..yep!

I can see you using this in a lot of places to help with drainage around your property. It is going to be one of those things that you wonder why you waited so long to get. 👍👍

Mike, I have a gut feeling that tells me, the more you use the tilt grading bucket the better you're gonna like IT !!

I had a feeling you would enjoy the tilt bucket! Time for perfect swale ditches!

Geometry is our friend!! Great tool and you adapted to it quickly. Something to consider: instead of pulling longitudinally and creating a “V” shaped ditch; work your bucket perpendicularly to the road to create an round bottom… more important on steep sections as it knocks water velocity wayyyy down. Great work!!! I’m just planting seeds for thought not being critical AT ALL!! Love your content!

Mike, when you were been taught to operate machinery the things you have now were just coming on line and your bosses were nearing retirement. They are hard to teach new tricks too. Just like you. You have used the straight bucket and could not see you using any other implement. I remember a time when computers were programmed in binary code. I was on a coarse that taught computer maintenance, Air Force provided. had a HP built teaching computer and had set teaching programs. One of which was a traffic light control program, which they seed could not control pedestrian lights because of limited computer memory. The next challenge was programming pedestrian lights. I played around with these two programs at night after finishing class work and built up program that worked. A couple of weeks later we were challenged to re wright the the traffic control program, this was to see if we had under stood temporary and permanent memory. Two of us past, the difference between us was I wrote the program which also included the pedestrian lights. Our instructor didn't say any thing about it. At the last day he produced a message from HP saying I had a cleaver but corkscrewed mind.

Fantastic new piece of gear. I can see where you are going to find a lot of uses for it in ditching and shaping slopes and such. You will be able to do compound angles when grading a hill and such. Good purchase!

Mike you are doing a fine job and having way too much fun. Now, all you need is a gravel seperator so you can salvage all the gravel you are losing from the road. In time, it would save you a lot of money that you would otherwise be losing in replacing the gravel. I have to say this new tilt bucket is handy as a pocket on a shirt. I can see you using it on that new road job out to your new wood lot in the woods.

Those tilt buckets are terrific...Once you get good at it you can do tremendous things.

Love the I-79 reference. How do you know it's Spring in PA? The orange cones start blossoming.

A good pass with the land plane and its gonna be gorgeous!! Just in time before winter sets in!!

Another bucket on the “bucket list”

That's one awesome addition to have Mike, the new Tilt Bucket really allows you to do much better ditch work with the excavator and saves you time too. That's really a great product from Werk Brau. Thanks for sharing with us and it was Melissa Approved according to her smiles. Stay safe and keep up the good videos. Fred.

Nice job. That's a major landscaping upgrade for the excavator.

I got excited about that swivel bucket as well Mike. It is handier than a 2 pocket shirt. The ditch looks like a work of art. ty for the video sharing with us. :)

That tilt bucket will come in handy when you build your road from the clearing to the house and woodyard.

WOW that was cool, I've seen these in use on highway equipment, but to see one on a smaller machine is just great! I was impressed with you being able to change the PSI from the joystick, that was slick! And then be able to set it for later use...fantastic! It was like Christmas day LOL!

Wow that’s awesome tool for all your driveways and trails. Going to save you a ton of time. And you can trim up a lot of the embankment’s on the side of roads at the same time. Your sister will love you 🎉

Another job done with the right tool! I keep telling my wife that, but still no new tools : (

A absolute must have attachment for a excavator. The versatility is game changing. Now you need a Trimble setup 😁

Hi Mike, that is a great attachment you have added to the machine. I have been toying with the idea of buying a excavator. No need to buy a regular bucket when this is available. Good for you! Have a great day.

Mike I know I’ve said this before but I’m saying it again you do good work enjoy your videos

I bought an excavator solely for the use of a power tilting muck bucket. We live in the pacific Northwest. We did landscaping and graded yards with a tractor and box scraper. But in the winter when it was really muddy, the tractor would leave lots of ruts and really work up the mud with many passes required. Once we got the excavator, it was a one pass deal and we could totally set the grade for proper drainage. We used a Lazer to shoot grade, but after a while, the Lazer was just used to check my ability.😎 it is a total game changer!

I remember you doing this driveway some time ago ago, wow what a difference this makes. The control you have looks like an extension of your fingers, great purchase.

Wow that was quick....No pun intended but a great piece of equipment to have on your bucket list!!!

That’s a beaut of a ditch line!

Now you need a rock sifter bucket like I have so you can tumble your rock and separate the dirt with rock. That way you could reuse your rock better. Love attachments for the equipment. I even make some myself with the blank plates you can buy. Great video Mike, Christmas in October for Mike.

Hey Melissa, you looked like you contained your excitement, Mike will be more efficient digging the swimming pool with this new bucket

I would say with this new equipment and what ur doing wii help out all round with that driveway

Great job helping your sister out, stay safe and have a great day Morgan family 🇺🇸

That works really well. Wish I had something like that for my tractor loader.

That's great Mike you are as excited like a kid in the candy store!, lololo!. That WB bucket is real nice and definitely makes life easy cutting ditches in tight areas!, great investment!.

Great implement Mike! Much more versatile the a standard bucket. Yeah, no need for the old one anymore. 👍

As I sit here waiting for my MX5400 and grader to be delivered, knowing how bad I need to grade my 3/4-mile access road and driveway, I am jealous, but enjoying watching you break in your new toy . . .I mean tool! Nice piece of kit, Mike!
