I used to do a lot of brush hogging - you never knew what you were getting into - junk , ruts ,rocks , old perk test holes , stumps , ground bees - kept you on your toes . got a underground cable junction box you know the kind they paint grass green , made a good rattle , then there was the time I sucked up 12 ft. of farm fence and 2 wooden posts , that brought things to a halt !
Ditto on the brush hogging. Managed to somehow brush hog a cement cattle feeder hidden in six foot tail field of weeds, strangely enough the brush hog survived the ordeal.
I contracted high tension line right-of-ways. I definitely know what ya mean about ground bees/hornets - we used to swear they got educated enough to know to build under the pylons. We kept the line area pretty clear, but it’s amazing what people will dump on someone else’s space!
I’ve been under a bush hog a few times myself cutting out barbed wire someone just left lying on the ground with no regard for what trouble it will cause for someone else. Had to grin and bear it a couple of times as I was on a steep hillside getting eat up by yellow jackets I had pissed off.
You improve the land in every job you do. No half assing about it. Thanks for sharing this and a very, very Merry Christmas to you, David, your families, and everyone who has worked with you this year.🎄🎄
seams that way but look at the bright side if it doesn't stop it will brake the cam shaft or worse.there is always a limit how much one can take but we being who we are tend to push the limits to a braking point lol. that was the best bush waker iI have seen so far and i have seen quite a few.
My fix on Christmas Eve. Its Sunday here in New Zealand. The lovely woman preparing the family dinner for tonight. Thanks Chris. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
That mulcher is honestly one of the best I've seen. It does a phenomenal job with a very consistent chip size. Probably nice doing something other than digging dirt for a day or so after the big pond job.
Hazard reduction in progress - patience tested as well. Always good to see tree and brush clearing to allow greater growth of trees - environment protection. Merry Christmas LetsDig18 to you and yours and to all the best of the season.
With mulchers, Bolt cutters should be a standard tool. So many just leave fencing material in the weeds.. and when barbed wire or other fencing gets old and in the weeks... it's invisible..but the mulcher will always find it. Have Merry Christmas.
My guess is that the owner didn't get to where he is by being a slob and he won't put up with sloppy work so probably the contractor that put the fence up has received a phone call.
Congratulations, Chris, on a behemoth job well done! This is one for your personal records of achievements. Now you will be in demand to build over the top pond dams. 😊I'm looking forward to your next project.
When I saw you were still at the new pond site, I thought you would have brought the 220 over and buried that brush pile. Mulcher does clear the fence line well - owner needs to go along the fence with 55 gallon drum of weed kill concentrate. Merry Christmas Pond Master and landscape magician.
buried 'treasure' in overgrown thicket that like always fun. aside from mulcher ingesting a couple tires , trying to floss with barb wire. each time you use mulcher Chris you getting better. behind the fence was a disaster, it looks 100 times better now. Happy holidays Chris, enjoy some time off
Worst thing I've found with my mulcher is a knotted 1" rope ships ladder/climbing net laying next to a woodland confidence course... muddy nylon rope does not cut very well. Finally found that a "hacksaw" sawzall blade would cut it while it was frozen solid in the morning. It sure pulled the drum to a sudden stop though - fortunately it didn't warp the drum when it wadded up in it.
Wishing you and your dearest loved ones a very happy christmas time, Chris.. thank you for all your videos of your projects and on the farms.. love to you always from Australia
Friend of friend does clean up work. Doesn't have as nice a mulcher but he told me before hogging the area, he walks it and has a metal detector on a long handle. Found many a hazard. But ideally, who has that time you ask, well you know how much time costs and down time costs. And yeah, its a go and pray work...glad you have bolt cutters and you are doing this in cold weather as no worry of yellowjackets! Merry Christmas to letsdig18!
Man, I wish I had use of that mulcher at a place where I am from in Pennsylvania. There is a cow field that I watched thorn bushes grow bigger and bigger over the years till they are a good 20 feet across. I always thought of having the ability to clear those for the cow's sake more than the farmer.
@@Skorpychan: That's why you ask around about "borrowing"/"renting" the goats to turn the weeds, etc. into fertilizer, and return them as soon as you start seeing any bare ground, or grass stubble in the area of your "project". 🙂
Doing that mulching in winter time was likely the better move, cuts back on the chances to stir up yellow jackets or ground wasps. Plus its not just a near impenetrable green wall. This did get me thinking though, as to why not just have you tear it all out with the 220 when you had it there but then comes the question of where you' be able to put it if not dig a burn pit and bury it all.
We all see why these drum mulchers are the preferred machine wow like a lawnmower going threw grass, heaven help anything in front of this monster. Merry Xmas guy's hope you have a good holiday and Happy New Year
Good morning, Chris! I want to thank you for another year of awesome videos. This may sound cliche, but keep up the great work! Hope you and yours and all the puppies have a Blessed Christmas and a Happy, Healthy, Prosperous New Year! God bless.
I wish You and everyone that You hold Near and Dear a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Chris from New Zealand. Thanks for all that You have shared with us in 2023 and I have to admit that Your Videos are on My Do Not Miss List so I am looking forward to 2024.
Nice reddish brown wall there on the right around 16:00.... what's that all aboot? Beautiful mulch machine. I bet you will buy a new set of blades for it, and re-condition the old ones. Less down time, and easier on the back. I spent many a long hour with a pair of vice grips and a grinder sharpening up a Mott flail mower! Happy Holidays/Merry Christmas to you and yours, Chris. Thanks for all the great video of great work.
Thanks for the video of mulching brush great job 👍❤️❤️ it. Take care of yourself and family and Winston and be Blessed ❤️. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family and friends.
Just be glad it was chain link which is a mild steel. You will hate the days of barbed wire that is often harder and high tension steel. Nasty stuff. Especially when it is embedded in trees that had the wire stapled to it and then grew around it. Much better to rip out those wind breaks between fields with the excavator and burn the mess than to run into that old wire with a mulcher. Fire does not mind hidden wire.
You're not kidding. I've hit wire that's in trees with a chainsaw before. Thank God for chain brakes. My dad has a scar going down his face from hitting barbed wire in a tree he was cutting up for firewood - there was no such thing as a chain brake at the time. Over 40 stitches from it.
@@m2hmghb: One of my Aunts' husbands had a chainsaw kick back on him, before chain brakes existed, it really tore his face up, and during the recovery of the saw from the kick back, it tore up one of his legs, as well. His recovery from the injuries took a while.
Ooof. That really sucks. I hope he recovered well from it. I wear chaps for a reason, my legs are worth more then the 90 bucks to buy a decent pair of them. @@daleallen7634
I was all like, “HE IS NOT GONNA RUN OVER THAT TREE….. oh ok…. Well now what’s he gonna do, can’t mulch a whole tr.. oh……. Nevermind”. That’s badass.. 😎😂
I just finished watching all 3800 plus videos!!!! what a journey! Wishing you and your family, Chris, a very Merry Christmas and a Healthy and Happy New Year!! I was wondering if you ever are going to give us a pond update on past ponds you have dug? I would like to know what has become of the split pond where you said they were planning on putting in a bridge between the two ponds? Looking forward to what the New Year will bring for us from you!!! If it helps any, I prefer the outside, away from the equipment videos. You get to see much more going on than the cab view. Don't get me wrong I love to hear your explanations and all but to me you seem to get a better sense of what is going on when you can see what is going on at a distance. Thanks!
Chris has said before that it isn't easy to do "follow ups" because he does not own the land and would have to try and get permission to go on the property. Bealy is his friend so he is able to go show that pond off.
@@charlesswhitlock Chris can do what he wants. It is his channel. If it were mine, I would go the extra mile(at least try) to get the permission and keep viewers interested knowing there will be follow ups. Not one series and done left hanging type a deal. Also, his customers, if they appreciate his work should want him to show it off to the rest of the world unless they are selfish??
@@JoeMGajdowskiBecause he doesn't own the properties & if he's out showing off past projects he isn't earning is he ? At the end of the day he's got enough going on with his own plans on his farm on his time off nevermind out looking at potential projects & maintenance.
I could be wrong but that fence looks extremely familiar… way way back in the beginning start of the mini lake.. and the building colors up on the hill are super close… and if I am not mistaken this would be on the other side of the Chain-link fence🤔🤔 lol I tend to pay attention to detail when moving into a job site. There are several Landscape scenes I remember being on the other side of the fence … 🤷🏻♂️ but I could be mistaken… but regardless that is way WAY better job than my brush hog when your done it doesn’t look like a nuclear blast or a tornado!! Nice and extremely neat
Welcome to mulching !!! It will wind just about anything into the head !!! I once would a 10 ft piece of 3/4 inch rebar up in the middle of the woods !!! No idea where it came from !!!
A friend hired a mulcher to help clear some woods behind his house and he asked me to bring my chainsaw and handle the bigger stuff. We got started and things were going great right up until the world went crazy around the mulcher. Friend had forgotten he had pulled an old trampoline bed off into the woods. It sounded like a Huey had landed in the backyard when it grabbed it and there was a cloud of leaves and dirt covering the mulcher. It was a significant emotional event!!
Unprofessional contractors with little or no work ethic are the persons who leave job site debris for others to find regardless what is damaged or the costs of repair/replacement. As Jack Webb said as Sgt. Joe Friday in “Dragnet”, “You (in this case, a-clown contractors) make me want to vomit!” I yield back. Great site, Chris. I’ve learned a lot from your site
Your mulching machine is a beast. Great job. Sorry about the wire but everyone isn't as neat on the job site as you are Chris. Have a very Merry Christmas with your family and friends.
Just a suggestion you may want to keep a angle grinder in your truck just incase. Better to have it and not need it, then need it and not have it. Bolt cutters different types of tools may have to be added to your collection to do different jobs. There isn't a difference in tools either equipment or hand tools they all are expensive.
Hi Chris wishing you and your fur babies a very Merry Christmas a safe and prosperous new year .Sending love from Peter and Veronica Victoria Australia.🚜🚜🚜
That mulcher is sweet deal, works well, it even winds the wire up in a nice tight ball, unfortunately, it doesn’t spit it out. The skid steer seems to be matched pretty well to mulcher , makes for a nice finish job and nothing gets beat to death getting it done. Question, the mulcher unit it self has a gage on it, is that oil flow, or RPM indicator, oil pressure maybe, if you think of it on a vid sometime would you point it out. Thanks for tag along video sir, Merry Christmas.
Who just abandons chunks of fencing and old tyres? That should have gone in for recycling! At least all the brush is being recycled into soil now. Even though it'll only grow back again as soon as you turn your back, it's good to have organic matter in the soil.
On the smaller limbs and debris, if you grind it from the side you don't have to chase it as much. It gets spread out across the entire drum and chips up, instead of getting slung out the back of the machine. Or, just lift the drum and grind it while it's still in the ground.
I know the mulcher works great, but it looks like it would have been better to pull the trees up and been done with the stump. Just want to wish you and your crew, and your family, a very Merry Christmas!
I used to do a lot of brush hogging - you never knew what you were getting into - junk , ruts ,rocks , old perk test holes , stumps , ground bees - kept you on your toes . got a underground cable junction box you know the kind they paint grass green , made a good rattle , then there was the time I sucked up 12 ft. of farm fence and 2 wooden posts , that brought things to a halt !
Ditto on the brush hogging. Managed to somehow brush hog a cement cattle feeder hidden in six foot tail field of weeds, strangely enough the brush hog survived the ordeal.
I contracted high tension line right-of-ways. I definitely know what ya mean about ground bees/hornets - we used to swear they got educated enough to know to build under the pylons. We kept the line area pretty clear, but it’s amazing what people will dump on someone else’s space!
Keep your battery powered grinder handy 👍
I’ve been under a bush hog a few times myself cutting out barbed wire someone just left lying on the ground with no regard for what trouble it will cause for someone else. Had to grin and bear it a couple of times as I was on a steep hillside getting eat up by yellow jackets I had pissed off.
Oh come on now, pitter patter, brush hogging ain't nothing but child's play. Get with the program Sally! I remember when I was 7 years old 😂

We keep a 18V grinder with a pkg. of cutting disk!!
Bolt cutters, some kind of torch, grinder, penetrating oil and impact gun would be my list. Merry Christmas to you as well.
Man, that's just crappy workmanship to leave construction debris laying around. Did they think that would just... go away? Love the mulcher.
Wood, even treated pallets, will rot eventually, but not much else.
"Did they think"
I think I'd make it known that the contractor hires lazy, disrespectful workers, and that they should be avoided at all costs.
My guess is that the owner didn't get to where he is by being a slob and he won't put up with sloppy work so probably the contractor that put the fence up has received a phone call.
Happens all the time unfortunately.
This is strangely satisfying... i could watch this for hours. I love seeing the progress you made. I guess that why i enjoy mowing lawn. 😂

The mulcher has come in handy. I like the mini with the mulching head. It's a tool for a different area as well. Merry Christmas.

“A Tire!”….wonder where that came from….guess homeboy finally picked it up from behind the dam and chucked it over the fence….real nice!
Always a mystery what's hiding in the brush . Good thing nothing solid like a engine block .
I've found cars hidden in the brush before. Neighbor pulled a car out of the swamp when I was growing up.

Happy Christmas and New year to you Chris....... been a fabulous year of videos.......
I know the mulcher works great, but it looks like it would have been better to pull the trees up and been done with the stump. Just want to wish you and your crew, and your family, a very Merry Christmas!
Great mulching job Chris Davin must have given you a few pointers great video thanks and happy holidays to you
