Loved the camera work on the big stump at14+ minutes!! Great angle!

The best sound on earth is the sound of ripping roots as you pull a fresh stump out of the soil.

Always a pleasure watching you operate. I fall asleep to this at night lol I like hydrolic swing motor sound

When is Betty scheduled for her first appearance? Can’t wait to see her shove stuff around.

I'm pretty impressed with that stumper attachment! Those pine trees definitely anchor into the ground. A company I worked for years back used to take a 18 inch sewer bucket and mount it on a 300 komatsu excavator and dig stumps out. It was definitely one strong machine.

Plucking out stumps like pulling carrots out of the garden. Looks so easy with the stumper attachment.

To hear the root being ripped apart adds to the amazement of these machines and attachments

Great job sir. The really big stump was a real mother stumper. Took a lot of patience to dig that one up. Pond area is really shaping up quickly.

Gingerly throws multi ton stumps, never misses a beat. That 250 never bogs down. No wasted motion with this operator.

Glad to see I am not the only one fighting pine stumps. The Volvo and stumper sure beats my old EX120-2. Enjoy watching your techniques. Learning a lot

Can’t wait to see Betty18 at work!

Amazing work 👍

Amazing how well that stumper works for the size. Almost ready for the burn and the arrival of Betty!

That Stumper rig is the stuff of Jerrassic park nightmares. Scares the stump roots right outta the ground as it approaches. This makes a great way to spend a Sunday night. Watching NFL football (KC vs LV ) on tv and Chris Letsdig18 on my phone.

Some of those stumps would be good for the pond.

Am I the only one that thinks the 220 looks like a dinosaur ripping through things like this.

Oh I was hoping Betty would show. Well, as you said at the end of this vid, she should be making her appearance next. Nice job on those stumps. I could hear my mom & dad say "Where was he when we wanted to get rid of those cedar stumps". We had some HUGE old first growth cedar stumps in our yard: 2 were 6ft high and at least 40 in across (maybe larger). One my mom just planted things around & let the plants go wild. The other she spent 5 years slowly burning it away. Nice work, Chris.

Is a lot of work for one person kudos to you, you are persistent and you definitely know what you're doing!

Another fine day in the woods, field. At least he has quiet neighbors. They just sun all day long.

That's my favorite attachment,the ripper! Eating dinner and doing all this ripen,love it.

Just sitting here wanting something new to watch and up pops letsdig18! Love it

Enjoyed this video bro and look forward to see Betty pushing stuff around. Safe travels up your way

Those are some Big roots!!

Wow that stumper is something else, doesn’t seem to bounce you around as much as when bucket is on. Impressive keep up the good work bud. Love from Minneapolis

Looking forward to seeing Big Betty make her first appearance.

Very different when you start from scratch. Some of the root discs were seriously substantial. Looking forward to seeing where this one goes next. Be well Chris.

Looking Great.

That stump bucket gets the dirt off the root ball so much easier then the digging bucket 😱😃

Gonna be some burn!

Thanks for explaining the solar farm wondered what that was from your drone video of before

Looking good Chris!

@14:08 if that stump has marl on it's roots happy day that stuff acts like sealant ,it's a very fine clay that when it petrifies turns to limestone, of course it takes a few centuries to do that.

A video tour of your garage and all your equipment would be awesome. That's a 30-45 video right there. What they do and when you got em, etc. Big fan, btw.

au - Back in 60s i remember seeing farms clearing malle redgum stumps just out of town piles & piles & free wood Now all you see is crops for 100's miles - hard yaka back then getting land prepared for farming .

Looking awesome Chris

The Word is OUT...Chris you are the Pond King. I said it once before but i'll say it again.Your Channel should be over a Mil in Subs if Not Million$. #KeepUploading & I Will #KeepWatching

One heck of a solar field there, stay safe,Chris .

Our neighbor is a 900 acre solar farm and the big birds love it!

Awesome. letsdig18 doing what he does best.

That was a great camera angle with those big stumps.

Deep rooted stubborn sons of guns. True diligence pays off. Solar farms, if the cost to grow food is too much, plant a solar farm.

That be the trick for stumps...plus ground dry too...makes for clean stumps

Excellent video

Chris going to buy a Volvo 300 next to get those big stumps easier

Wow that machine is a beast you’re getting everything out of her that she has super impressed punching above 👍

The volvo loves that stump ripper. It's at fighting weight with it on!!

Thats gonna look nice when that pond is done. Nice wide Open Space for a pond Right beside the solar panels. Kool Video too.👍👍

Your Coffee cup reflection in the window fooled me into thinking it was a stump!

Great video 👍👍

Great sharing

That stumper attachment was so efficient. Excited to see Betty do her thing. Take care & cheers from 🐨🦘🥰

Great content Chris can't wait to see Betty in action 👍👍👍👍

Also looking forward to seeing Big Betty working.

ah been waiting for this Chris. get that stumping attachment to work

Chris thanks for sharing!Kevin

It's the Craw. (Get Smart quote) :)

Such a masterful stumped Christopher Lee.

You ever thought about putting those Big stumps in the very bottom of your ponds for fish habitat?

Stumper plus thumb for the win.

I need me a newer excavator. I thought you'd spend about 45min changing out the bucket... nope! Dang that's smooth

I can sure use that stumper about now. Gor 3 lots to clear ,1st one was a pain with regular bucket. And it's all rock as well.

You was the "Stump Master" there today Chris !! Man, those last 2 Big pine stumps , you could have made the burn pit where those 2 came out of the ground !! lololol... Prep work is always a pain , getting going pond is the fun part... Man, your right Chris , you got a Hella Pile of stumps to get rid of !! But, I'm sure once you get one of your Guin's Bon-Fires going they will be gone soon enough !! lololol.... Great as always Chris, Have a Great Evening Man !! and, On too the Next....

Need Pond, Call Chris! NO Job Too Big or Too Small. One Call delivers Experience & Equipment.👍

Can’t wait to see Betty in action , another nice one

Damn the stumper attachment looks plum nasty from the front angle!

"Scotty, more power". "I'm givin' her all she's got captain!!"

The ripper was a wise investment, it’s paying off for it’s self.👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

If i didn't live all the way across the country id love to come help out

You need a closed in cab for Betty. You don’t need to put up with the dust and cold without a cab.

I'm sure you wished all the stumps were like those little ones. Pluck, shake, repeat. Some large stump holes on this job. Great work as always.

Can’t wait until burn day!

Looks like it’s going to be a good fire when it rains or if it rains

The, Dozer View Cam, was fantastic! It was like playing a 3D video game!

A big ass fire next to the Solar Farm, lets see what that does to their output!

awesome stumping Chris..

You need some word when dropping a big stump? Such a huge difference the Stumper and Dozer made. Can't wait for the pond.

I'm in the process of digging up 350 acres of plantation pines with roots that are the size of a pickup truck and that stumper wouldn't touch these things. The hole left over can easily hold a full size chevy.

Boy when I say you found a root you found a root. That thing had to go 12".

The stumper is an impressive piece of machinery there was some big stumps. It looked like it made the job easier. This was another great video. 😀❤🇨🇦

Love the close up footage at about the 12 minute mark , excellent .

It would be nice if the loggers could take all of the junk with them :-)

Hi Chris, I noticed that your thumb bounces when you stab the boom down into the ground. 9:40ish mark. Is that a seal going bad or is there some kind of cylinder safety play built in on that machine? Or maybe it is just the way that progressive link sits when the thumb is all the way up…

Glad I don’t have to deal with stumps that large when I clear land up here.

great job buddy and great video as always buddy love the up close shot of you ripping out the stumps 😎👊🏻👍🏻 at 14:05 the stumper hit the thumb didn’t know it would do that lol 😂

Who's going to clean all them solar panels when your done Chris?? Lol...great work!👍

I’m ready to see how the dirt comes out. Seen a little bit of clay come up but the top soil seems to go pretty deep.

The rake seems to be working better and better, ground looks good afterwords.

Hey letsdig18! You should work with Ami on a stumper that is designed to work with your signature thumb! Thanks for the nice videos! Ride ride ride!

No stump too big for Chris from Letsdig!!!

Looking forward to Betty pushing some brush! ✌🏻🇺🇸

Maybe your New Toy will do some work on the pond Job ?

The costs of power for a farm especially the powerlines and the power provider etc is a huge cost originally. Here many farmer's are developing their own solar farms purely for their own use and running car's and milking equipment as well, actually saving huge monthly payments to the corporate world, but then again it's exspenise just for the sake of having it unless it's profitable business, small hydroelectric plant are even better if river's on property, and of course wind as here it's very windy.

As well to the 2.Day ripping the big stump. The greatest likely from Oak or other low roots the make a great work. With the Dozer to bring you the roots to great heap. Then to explain how the Pond to look must. The video to show how manifold the preliminary work to the pond build is. I glad my to the continuation.

Get AMI to build you a stumper that matches up to your thumb. That would be cool!

Looks like so much fun.

Now I understand why you would prefer to take the stump out with the tree, thought you met your match with the one at the 13 minute mark !

That’s one mean set of pinchers

That’s a lot of stumps but I’ve seen you move and burn more then that should be a good fire 👍👍👍👍👍😉

As a heavy equipment operator's Mum I appreciate the skills and many years of work to do the job that you do Chris. Will always enoy your videos.

Looking forward to that loader working !
