no when humans would end those roads over time will disappear as well. now it will take a long time with how well they are made but its gravel and it will be faster then well made concrete and asphalt but sadly they will disappear
I always enjoyed the videos that you did with your uncle John - from major pond builds and repairs to demo projects. Hope you two can find the time to do more of the same.
I don't understand why more viewer don't click on the LIKE button. Chris works hard every day giving you the best camera angles, and it takes time from his job to do so. Then, after work, he goes home and has to take the time to edit this video for your entertainment. Please, spend a second to click on the Like button. It DOES help his channel grow, and gets more viewers for him. Thank you SO much!!! Thank you Chris for making your videos for us all to appreciate.
The issue I have is the video just ends... no departing message... so sometimes I forget/miss hitting like... and before I know it, I'm into a different video.
@@wolphin732outros are recommended but that requires editing and editor software, but given Chris' continuous work projects with filming, he probably just ties them together and pushes the render and upload button. [Over simplified but you get the idea.] While I'd love to see an outro, I do like the flow of videos to watch.
I agree.. ppl that watch his videos obviously like the video or they wouldn’t keep coming back, n clicking a 👍🏻 is something very simple and easy to help a good guy out, since he takes the time n effort to make videos for us to watch
It’s kinda nice when customer supplies his own materials and equipment to load it.looks like he has plans for this old farm,having that much land and having it dismantled.great video as always,glad to hear John is doing good.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Chris I've watched you for years. I began watching when you were working with your uncle and the saw mill. And I always enjoyed those video projects where you clean silt out of existing ponds. Watching you maneuver gobs of muck without becoming part of the muck yourself is always a treat. Wishing you a long and healthy career.
Same here, Been watching for years. I loved the "Challenges" like picking up plastic bottles with an excavator. I believe it's about time you had a new "Challenge" video isn't it? Perhaps a foot race challenge with Bealygood or a Rock Truck challenge with that Tod guy?
I don't remember how long ago it was......You were sooo proud to show your uncle johns new dump truck!! It was like being a kid in a candy store, you showed all the maneuvers of the back gate! now years later you are borrowing the same truck and it still looks great! He taught you well how to take care of your machines!!
that crushed concrete sure looks like a nice decent material to work with, it lays down uniform and has nice compaction from the way it appears in the video. 3 loader buckets of crushed concrete mixed with 1 bucket of dry cement just add water and you'd have the perfect recipe for a good solid floor in a pole barn where a guy keeps his equipment.
I just had four loads tailgated down my driveway and your right, it packs down good but there’s a lot of metal in it. A nightmare get it all out. Just need a drag magnet and a good pair of eyes
@@skidmark7845The metal is rebar that was left in the concrete, not sure why it wasn't removed before crushing it but it shouldn't cause a problem unless you find a lot of sharp pieces. One other problem with using crushed concrete for a driveway is when it's dry you'll get a lot more dust kicked up than if you used ABC stone. It's great for a base and then put a thin layer of clean stone on top makes for a good solid driveway.
I'm always amazed how effortlessly you make all this equipment handling. Only a few passes and you have the gravel spread and on to the next pile. Hope you & John can work on some future projects together. "Keep Digging for the Future" 🇺🇲
Watching Chris, he was so much focused on operating the frontend loader you could tell he wasn't as comfortable as using his own toys. Driving that dump truck must have been a joy. Looked brand new..
It was nice of you to be so gentle with the Deere 544k. You treated it like your own, never ramming it into the pile and spinning wheels, or bumping the bucket on dumper.
Hi Chris, it was very nice of your uncle John to leave you his truck. Too bad he wasn't available to drive for you it would be like old days him driving and you operating while he's gone. Those were the good old days, and now we have the amazing days of Chris doing it all and a great job you do. I think that you see or talk to Uncle John more than we see or know which is good you've been together a long time. God bless you, Chris, and I pray for a long time watching you work. Becareful and safe out there. See you tomorrow.
CHRIS, SOMETHING FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT. BUY SOME OF THE SILOS AT THE PIG FARM AND USE THEM FOR YOUR CABINS AT THE FARM. MAYBE PUT THEM WITH A METAL CONTAINER FOR A DIFFERENT LOOK.
Nothing like a freshly layered road with some crushed Crete, looks great Chris as always, thanks for sharing an I look forward to seeing the next video 🇺🇲🤙💪👌✊👍
I Always give a like Chris, used to love messing around with machines myself from a little olf farm tractor to a 20 cubic yard Backhoe excavator, boys toys I call them.
Crushed concrete makes a good road base. Coal slag makes a good road base too. We have a coal burning power plant near where I live. My dad bought some to repair our driveway on our dairy farm years ago when I was a kid. Back then I ran around without shoes a lot. I quickly learned not to walk on the coal slag without shoes because it will tear your feet up.
Thanks for sharing your videos. I'm always amazed at how far those loads of rock and such don't don't go. Could watch these videos all day long sometimes. Thanks again
I miss John. Ya'll always seem to have worked well together. Like you were the left hand, and he was the right. The excavator recovery while at the vet hospital was some good teamwork.
The dump truck is still looking good and the side boards look like they got replaced this past year. That crush looks like you could add dry cement and water and repour a slab.
Always a joy watching Chris sculpting dirt in a pond damn and other itens. Watching him sculpting crushed concrete, gravel and millings into a well built and easily maintained road is just as entertaining. It's looks effortless to most of us but we know it takes a lot experience and talent to do it as good as he does.
All you have to do find out how much experience and talent it takes is to rent any piece of equipment - if you are lucky you get the hang of it by noon. 🙂 It is definitely not as easy as Chris makes it look!
I bet that loader was originally from up here in the northern states that’s usually the type of bucket they run here for loaders they use for the big parking lots. Allows to stack piles higher in tighter spaces
Yes Sir, that crushed concrete should be some really good base material, I bet it packs hard as hell !! Got it coming right on a long, should have it knocked on out in no time !! Great as always Chris !! Have a great Evening Man, And, On too the Next !!
Was thinking the same. Once he gets out of the fill it will be more feasible to tailgate spread. Right on chains, right on speed and right on raising the bed. Practice makes perfect. Eh... I give him couple loads to have it down.
Chris hopeing you are feeling better. Road is looking really great. Suppposed to get MOre snow here in upper northeast Illinois tonight, after getting over a foot last week, and currently 9 degrees here, with wind chill down to 4 below..
That looks like some nice stuff that crushed concrete probably not as good as stone but looks like it packs in alright should work just fine for the road
Chris. Did you practice with one of your toy John Deere's of your massive collection before using the real thing? I swear you are great at everything! Truly Blessed and gifted! Thanks and beautiful job!!
The next Day by the Road building. You have a Folie lay and Drive Load and Load crushed Concrete to the Road building. The Problem Place have You Overwork this Day. However the Perfect Loosening. 💪👌
My crew asked for a skid steer for the job we're working on and the office people sent us that exact make and model loader instead. Not even remotely what we needed, but hopefully it'll at least be fun for what we can use it for.
Chris you need a fleet of trucks yourself they do come in handy Unless you all ready have a few of youre own Them gravel haulers can make you money plus there when you need them yourself
You should always lift straight up a few inches as you enter the toe of the pile. Enter until you feel you are about to stop. Lift straight up and get weight on the front tires. At that same moment start hitting the accelerator. Then start your curl but also lift. If you curl on entry you ramp and the bottom of the bucket gets pushed up and you loose traction AND wear the bucket bottom quickly.
Love watching you build roads. Those roads are going to be there forever. Thanks for sharing, hope John has a wonderful time.
no when humans would end those roads over time will disappear as well. now it will take a long time with how well they are made but its gravel and it will be faster then well made concrete and asphalt but sadly they will disappear

I’ve been watching Chris when I was in high school 10 years ago lol. Back when he had the old military dump truck and his link belt

You are the best multitask person on CZcams. 🏆🏆🏆.
Nice to hear that John is on a cruise.....sounds like he is ok. Always loved that truck. Love to see John help you on one of your projects.
Chris,I am really mesmerized by your talent.You have an amazing talent in your arsenal.You run a great company.Thank you for these videos.
Hey Chris !!! Nice of John to leave you access to the ""KW"" & see that he replaced the top board on the bed !! 🙃😉😊👍👍👍👍👍
Unless John got a new truck, it's a Sterling rather than a KW.
@@LatitudeSky John's dump truck is in fact a KW. Daimler discontinued the Sterling brand in 2009-2010.
Is there no end to Chris' talents in anything he turns his hand to?! 🙌🙌🙌
Awesome work and hope that John has a great vacation!
Shades of Girka with the pat down. Loved the back and forth camera views of loading the truck showing the whole process.
Brought back memories seeing you use that suicide knob on the front loader. LOL!
Watching Chris, he was so much focused on operating the frontend loader you could tell he wasn't as comfortable as using his own toys. Driving that dump truck must have been a joy. Looked brand new..
Funny how when we order stone we want the driver to spread it but we haul ourselves a pile is just fine. LOL
Geez Chris you’re even gentle on the big loader getting a full bucket with ease 👏👍🏻
It was nice of you to be so gentle with the Deere 544k. You treated it like your own, never ramming it into the pile and spinning wheels, or bumping the bucket on dumper.

Love the video Chris and love to see you on John truck .
Nice crushed concrete. Road is looking good. Hope the rain is light. Have a good evening.
From the gravel pile to the dump. Great editing there. That kind of sequence can add a lot a video.
Chris that crushed concrete looks like it's gonna make one heck of a good road base !!
A whole new set of toys to play with. You are in your element as always 😊
CHRIS, SOMETHING FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT. BUY SOME OF THE SILOS AT THE PIG FARM AND USE THEM FOR YOUR CABINS AT THE FARM. MAYBE PUT THEM WITH A METAL CONTAINER FOR A DIFFERENT LOOK.

Nothing like a freshly layered road with some crushed Crete, looks great Chris as always, thanks for sharing an I look forward to seeing the next video 🇺🇲🤙💪👌✊👍
One thing about this road, once you get it packed down it will be a long time. Nice front end loader.
Great video as always bro and good to see you in the truck and that John is having a well deserved break. Safe travels. Ken.
That crushed concrete makes a nice road base.
Chris you are a man of many hats .😊😊

Crushing old concrete to reuse as gravel is a great invention. A rare win-win.
It is a resource
Boy…..you look RIGHT-At-Home in John’s dump truck!!!….almost like you have been driving it ALL your life 😇😎
I miss John. Ya'll always seem to have worked well together. Like you were the left hand, and he was the right. The excavator recovery while at the vet hospital was some good teamwork.
Good to see you in that truck!! Been awhile since we have that in one of your videos!!
Great job crushed concrete or road grindings make great roads great video thanks Chris
The dump truck is still looking good and the side boards look like they got replaced this past year. That crush looks like you could add dry cement and water and repour a slab.
Man, talk about a 1 man operation. The only thing missing is Chris crushing up the cement! 😂
And he's done that too on a job a couple years ago.

great shots loading the truck!!
I bet that loader was originally from up here in the northern states that’s usually the type of bucket they run here for loaders they use for the big parking lots. Allows to stack piles higher in tighter spaces
That is one sexy John Deere love how all of the controls are all the same throughout their construction lineup.
Never seen a quarry that was like "Here's a loader. Load yourself. Have fun." Just wild!
NICE,,AWSOME CONTROL! LET'S DIG OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND AGAIN THANK'S CRIS❤😮
Good morning my friend, Chris
That's a little loader. I run a new john deere 844l loader. Tires on mine are almost 6 ft tall. I work at a sand mine. Mine is a joystick control.
That’s some nice clean crushed concrete! 👍
Thank you and have a great day.
Unexpected surprise you posting tonight. Didn’t expect it. Thx bro!
Love watching Chris
Yes Sir, that crushed concrete should be some really good base material, I bet it packs hard as hell !! Got it coming right on a long, should have it knocked on out in no time !! Great as always Chris !! Have a great Evening Man, And, On too the Next !!
Wonder if it sticks in the box much
Recycling!👍
Lost my bet with the wife saying you was going to tailgate that load in reverse 😂 👍👊👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Oh wait for the next video lol
Is that going to be a good watch? we know how you're spreading skills you've shown us a few times, I can't wait 😥
Was thinking the same. Once he gets out of the fill it will be more feasible to tailgate spread.
Right on chains, right on speed and right on raising the bed. Practice makes perfect.
Eh... I give him couple loads to have it down.
@@letsdig18I’m curious what parameters you go by to decide whether you dum r spread with the truck?
@@davidmessersmith786 couple inches vs a couple feet at a time
Nice job of getting road in and graded out, should work well for your client. Thanks for the update young man, enjoyed watching.
Have a good one Chris!!!
Chris it's nice how you can operate any kind of equipment!!!!
He's run front loaders before in videos. It's rare to see him using one on camera.
Awesome driveway for sure
Hi Chris we haven’t seen John for quite some time as he used to help you on some projects, how is he doing?

Nice you make it look so easy 😊
Who needs the 45 ton hiundia truck when you have access to this bad boy?
That looks like some good material.
They crushed the piss out of it
@@dennisholst4322 I know
Operators don't screw up until the Boss shows up
We use crush concrete on my job that’s some good material👍
If hes on a cruise to the Panama Canal that started last week, he's in the same 2 week cruise as my friend's dad.
Nice work, Chris.
Well done Chris
Chris you need a fleet of trucks yourself they do come in handy
Unless you all ready have a few of youre own
Them gravel haulers can make you money plus there when you need them yourself
Yeah, but they cost you a lot of money also. Insurance, tags, fuel, and a driver and then maintenance. It's not cheap, or Chris would have one.
There's is no money in trucking. Just purely a convenience
He placed the material on the fabric perfectly
Nice dual camera work with the loader/truck.
Driving that articulated loader is interesting.
We haven't seen your ankle john in long time I hope he's doing okay and his business
20:45 Hello brothers, good morning, your video is very good and educational, greetings from Indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
I always liked John's truck, I'm sure he maintains it as well as you maintain your equipment! Good to see you driving it again!

Concrete fines are pricey in florida
That crushed concrete looks like good stuff. I think they cut it with dirt here and it’s not so nice.
Nice video Chris.
If you keep up the hard work, get up early, and go to bed late, you'll make a half way decent truck driver one day. 👍🏼
Job well done 👍🏻
Another good video
That's well crushed concrete :-)
Looking good out there
Great film editing when you combined the two shots while loading the truck. Looking forward to seeing Ol Justin again. Keep up the good work.
That was some good filming/editing that loading sequence. You should give your filming/editors a pat on the back
That's me too lol
Thats nice stuff they must have crushed that with a jaw and cone its pretty fine. We only get 4 inch minus when it comes to crushed concrete.
That loading sequence was very nicely edited, with shots going from the loader to the dump and back. Chris is getting very good at these productions.
I ran one of those articulating loaders in high school. The slightest hill felt like I was going to roll over.
Maybe you had the bucket to high
@dennisholst4322 it wasn't that, it's how it worked. It was more like an illusion.
That's some nice material, actually has moisture in it. How much is crushed concrete where you are?
