    I enjoy watching your videos. When I'm having an old man can't get around day, I will watch your videos and I get to live vicariously through your work. Thank you Chris. 👍😎❤️🙏🇺🇲

    Your expertise in taking down trees on limited space is amazing. Luv watching the excavator clear out brush and trees. Thank u so much for video. God's blessings and don't let trees hit u!!!

    Looking at that ground you could have done with a drop of rain, would have been easier if the ground was wetter to drop those big trees. As always a good job. 👍

  • @heatherlane9270
    @heatherlane9270 Před rokem +19

    It's an absolute pleasure to watch you work with precision - to drop those trees within a confined area signifies many years of dedication, experience and learning. Had to laugh when Uncle John walked under the boom - know each other so well. Thanks LetsDig18.

    Amazing the 160 still looks the same as the day y’all bought it. Gotta love a clean and well taken care of machine.

  • @kimsapp1791
    @kimsapp1791 Před rokem +2

    I’m amazed at just how much dirt is truly packed up into those rootballs, you can tell by how deep and wide the hole where they came from! I still enjoy watching you dig the dirt out from the root systems.

    @MyTractorGuy Před rokem +20

    Those small lots can be a challenge when you got big trees. You navigate that about as perfectly as anyone can. Excellent work!

  • @craigwavra3495
    @craigwavra3495 Před rokem +9

    Agree with you, those are some tight conditions to be dropping trees! Welcome to the cold, time to start layering up!!

      It hit St. Louis two days ago, so not really a sign just yet. We are suppose to be near eighty by the weekend after a high today in the forties. A cold blast warning of what is to come, but not long lasting yet. Really unusual for this before Halloween. Sure some pretty straight and clean logs there. Long way up to the first branches.

    I like listening to Chris. Wanders along in kind of a stream of conscious, then describes what's going on and then is just quiet. No need to fill every second with yammer.

  • @donnamullins2089

    Looks to me like a root-ball doesn't just push down and bury itself in the dirt, it actually pulls the dirt up into itself, pretty incredible system.

  • @jerryc3050
    @jerryc3050 Před rokem +2

    Cool day for us in the South! Even reached down here to Louisiana 😀 This video shows how you can fit in tight spaces and still fall tall trees👍

  • @gardeningfishingjimw9364

    Lucky you don't have 80 year old Mountain Ash Gums to pull out; they are just massive!! Those pines are just babies compared to the MA monsters. However you and John do work so well together and are a pleasure to watch.

    Hay there Chris, hope all is well down on the farm. Talking about those “springy trees”. Here in southwest VA we have the same thing, always heard them called Shumate trees, never get very big and good for nothing but to grow a thicket and be in the way.

      He’s done a few short clips of it before. He does fine….but setting up the camera to capture the video shots of him cutting wood (not to mention the additional time editing) doesn’t seem worth the effort. There’s a few other channels to get some good chain saw vids
