You know I've been watching you guys for a while and I will say Aaron seems like one of the most good hearted, honest people. That's one of the reasons I enjoy the videos so immensely when you and Aaron work together. You guys are really synergistic with each other. Good job guys.

[@steveleverett2644]

As my father always said. You can learn something new every day no matter how old you are. Just the willingness to listen and watch. Thanks for the awesome video ❤

[@kevinkenyon7045]

The newest comedy team, Dirt perfect and Aaron behind the scenes, thanks for all the humor and work. Kevin

[@beozzie690]

Awe Bless Aaron, he took the booster seat out of Mrs Dirt Perfects van to operate the excavator,

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol so true

[@jameswilson322]

Haha that's funny sh t rite there

[@jameswilson322]

Job well done, thanks for the vidja mike and man behind the scenes

Nice place for a cabin show when all set up if you can 👍

[@thomasdesmond2248]

We are all going to miss Aaron when he goes back to blowing up boilers. Lol God bless

[@ronaldgaska4480]

I enjoy watching your projects. You two work awesome together. Amazing.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks Ronald

New garage band name "Derby Smashed Pipe". Great teamwork. MBTS fishtailing: first dump it right down the center and after the DP's spread, if I would have done it no skid steer. LOL!! Thanks for sharing.
OBTW, Stihl has a great chain saw file and guide. Good for field use.

[@ronaldheit196]

🎶😅😅😅😎
Stihl saws are the only one to buy.
I traded a custom cue stick for a small 20 year old or so one and rebuilt it with parts I got from the local Stihl dealer.
Ran like a top and cut beautifully.
Old model you had to manually trigger oil the chain.
Then I bought a larger 18" new one with auto oiling.

[@randycook4364]

Seat time...correct...I've been slowing getting better on my little 2305 w/backhoe. You and Letsdig have shown me how to be a smoother operator. THANKS.

[@DirtPerfect]

Awesome

[@losskauz6821]

You are definatley a great mentor for 'mouthpiece' to work for and learn from. If he learns half as well as he slings 'bull mess' he could gain so much for his experience. Thanks for the awesome videos you share, 'educational' and entertaining to boot, have a good one!!

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@mikebradley6880]

The more I see that power rake's finished product, the more I like it. Thanks for sharing Sir!

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks for watching and yes it works great

[@idahotim4083]

As an equipment operator for 20yrs you can always learn, glad to see you giving him stick time. Great videos.

[@bump6469]

Another perfect job by dort perfect and man behind the scenes. Nice looking place for cabin thanks for the excellent video keep em coming ole boy

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks for watching

[@JeffMadre]

I’m glad to,see the trenching bucket worked so well as a stumping bucket.

[@DirtPerfect]

👍😁

[@brucehuff5566]

Overcoming everyday adversity is always key with small businesses. We will miss Aaron. Nice job. Stay safe

[@DirtPerfect]

I agree Bruce

[@robertmarshall4719]

Mike your videos make me laugh when y'all to work together. I enjoy all your videos. Maybe one day y'all two will get along

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks Robert

[@claudewhitman2813]

Man, if followed you guys around I would never run out of firewood lol!

[@patrickcolahan7499]

Looks really good. Thanks for sharing.

[@flick22601]

Wish I was working with both of you. I guess I'll just have to suffer like everyone else and enjoy your videos. Stay safe.

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol

[@johnmartin-sg7cv]

As an excavator operator he makes a pretty good welder😂 Just joking. Good to see you are giving him a go. Only takes experience and a good teacher

[@DirtPerfect]

lol

[@darylb4814]

You and the Man Behind the Scene are an Awesome Team.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@markkenes4848]

Great to see you giving another guy a chance I appreciate that myself. Your an awesome guy Mike. Great vid.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks buddy

[@jamesdearman814]

Good teaching philosophy - hands on for equipment - start them slow then gradually work up to harder tasks.

[@gregcothrum4045]

Great video Mike y'all have a great day and stay safe 👍

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@woodcutter6235]

That’s awesome that you work with your guys like you do. Ps. I want to come down and brush up on my dozzer skills.

[@DirtPerfect]

[@abelincoln95]

The finishing with the power rake would definitely be worth an extra hour or so of billing...

[@huskiesgo5944]

The sign of a true craftsman is how well they hide their mistakes.

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol very true

[@Crewsy]

@37:37
A wood worker like me would love to have that tree, specifically the large burl to turn on a lathe.

[@DirtPerfect]

Yup I bet

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

Wayne Crews... I was casting covetous eyes on it too!!!

[@blackdogexcavator21]

Between your operating abilities and MBTS engineering prowess, yall do pretty work.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks buddy

[@lilredcummins]

Now THAT is an amazing way to use a narrow trench bucket, taking that tree down. Never seen that before. No need for a chain saw or stump grinder. Nice work!

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks Jim

[@raymondgochenour8725]

Enjoy it as always

[@tiredoldmechanic1791]

When Aaron gave you all of his knowledge on how to operate, seems like he should have saved a little for himself.😁

[@DirtPerfect]

lol good point

[@thomasdesmond2248]

Mike you need muck boots when Aaron's around. Lol God bless

[@brianschmitt5227]

I do not think muck boot will be high enough.

[@jerrydyke2291]

Awesome video!👍 U do Outstanding work! Have a Great Day!😁

[@SGCgleaton]

Thanks that is a good tip did not think of that . Going to try it right after the video

[@DirtPerfect]

👍

[@philipsavickas4860]

the best craftsmen aren't the ones that never mess-up there the ones that can fix the mess-ups best

[@thomasdesmond2248]

Show Aaron how to put the excavator in forward instead of reverse. I still remember my first day running an excavator. I smacked a fire hydrant with the bucket. Thankfully it didn't break. Lol God bless

[@chrissheathewoodguy]

one of the main reasons i love watching your videos is you and arons relations ship while working. getting stuff done when needed but have fun along the way. I had a employee that i could trust and poke fun with as well. I could depend on him as well to get stuff done when i was gone and not tear stuff up. I was the one as well the had the boo boos. lol

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks Chris

[@licencedtochill9336]

thank you for that tip on trackin foot work

Hi Mike. Love the interaction between you and MBTS!

Thanks Paul

Great job boys, nice one. Looks very nice. Take care and be safe. Graham🇬🇧🇬🇧🌲

You should be using a primer on the pvc before the cement, it helps the cement bite the pvc

[@DirtPerfect]

👍

[@callaghanlandscape6975]

Compacted like a double suplex from No Joke Johnny Poke!

[@DirtPerfect]

lol it don’t get old

[@thomasdesmond2248]

You should have brought Aaron's booster seat so he could run the skid stear. Don't want him going to HR complaining he can't see over the bucket. Lol God bless

[@donaldtrabeaux5235]

Awesome job duck legs still arguing with the boss, all in all if you can't have fun working together it's going to boring. life is too short not to have fun 👍👍👍😎😎😎👍👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍

[@richkavanagh5516]

One of the best displays using curl and leverage to rip roots.usefull bucket .👍

Thanks

[@gregallsup9522]

Awesome Job!!

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@brianseibert3080]

Next time mbts gives you any grief tell him if he did some work then he would make mistakes too! Hahaha it’s easy to criticize when you aren’t doing! You guys always have fun! I would love working with you!

[@justinotten6673]

Yea getting the herky jerks, like while learning to drive a hydrostatic tractor while the nervous adrenaline is flowing!!

[@larryehrlich57]

The plumber that I have seen gluing joints always push the pipe in as far as it goes with a slight twisting motion and then twists the seated pipe to insure the glue is evenly distributed.

[@johnnylindsey5808]

Good JOB

[@jerrycooper2265]

Sounds like you would be a good teacher

[@newhampshire-bob1604]

Nice job! Correct tools makes sure the job is well done!

[@charlesfreed7834]

Good job on the pad and the grade work

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@maxium4x4]

With all the dead Elm Trees over the last few years and the clean up that goes with it, I switched to a Carbide chain on the saw. Nice investment, no loss time and who likes to sharpen chains .....😎

[@robertbrady3027]

You guys do a good job.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Skid steer ain't no joke

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol 😝

[@leol1682]

Like the video Mike .

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks Leo

[@michaela.660]

An anchored heel is a must on accelerator pedals also ! Especially on 2 cycle Detroit's.

[@DirtPerfect]

Yes sir

[@levicoblentz9032]

Looks dirt perfect 👌

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@dennisryan7487]

WOW ! That Glare was Tremendous !. You better get the MBTS a Hardhat, that kinda glare could damage your Go Pro !

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol

[@mikenixon9164]

I think you are getting onto that skid steer.

[@DirtPerfect]

Still not a big fan of it but yes it’s handy

[@johnwehner8096]

For the first time in my 75 years I spent two weekend cleaning up a woods pond with a excavator and I could see myself in man behind the scenes. Just don’t do things a quickly as you do it and make it look so easy.

[@w056007568]

Good looking job, well done.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@danielpullum1907]

Well Done!@!@!@!!!!!! I like that trenching bucket. It allows easier penetration into the root ball. I can relate to MBTS's training experience.

[@TrevorDennis100]

OK, you 'both' did good work in this video, and the pad worked out nicely, but if Chris Guins finds the time to watch this video, he will definitely be giving you a hard time for scraping the Volvo's counterweight (clear to see at 35:57). No one but Chris will be operating his new 220, so I'd be very surprised if he ever messes up its new paint job.

[@Lifeinthe906]

First thing I thought hes gonna smash that pipe!! lol The finished yard looks really nice.

[@davestinson5691]

I love Aaron. He seems like a good guy a hella guy to have 4 help. Great content man as usual 👍

[@DirtPerfect]

He is

[@DanDeVoto]

PVC Primer would help with your glue joints. Didn't look like there was any adhesion on the riser pipe joint. Fun to watch you two banter.

[@christopherriddle2734]

It’s hard to go from an excavator, where you can see 360 degrees and you are perched 6 ft. above bucket, to a skid steer where you pretty much are the attachment. I feel your pain, trying to get used to mine as well

[@glennhunter7018]

Good video again man don’t worry about it things this happen that is why thanks go we know you are a good operator equipment The pad is looking good my friend The bucket worked good good job again

[@ConstructionMachineryChannel]

Looks like the trenching bucket worked pretty well, are you going to use it again? Had me worried when that big tree was coming down and headed straight for the outhouse.

[@DirtPerfect]

Yes it did

[@brownwarrior6867]

Lookin good boys 👍🏼

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@rickster9993]

I've wondered if you could combine a good root ripper/bucket and a special thumb/splitter for splitting up the root balls. Might be better if the thumb and bucket could act like a giant shear and cut the root balls up. That would speed up the disposal process.

[@DirtPerfect]

Possible

[@andymoss3132]

Keep a pair of long handled pruning loppers in truck. Give the hands something to do run around clip the stranglers off ground level. Something I find to give that finishing touch. Customers never know they there. Job turned out slick hero, keep it rolling

What did you load the last load of dirt with into the dump truck? I did notice that in Aarons boat video that the 120 was gone from the shop. You guys are a hoot.

[@michaelstark703]

Need you to come over to IA with the Volvo and do derecho cleanup

[@richardhedrick5601]

It's nice to blame somebody when they r not there lol

[@DirtPerfect]

😁

[@gotdeeres]

I was wondering why you had not tried the trenching bucket on stumps. The narrow bucket would not dig as large a hole and should have more leverage.

[@milleb17020]

Hey, since mbts is a welder fab guy and knows the basics of stumping. Why don't yall get together and design a stumping attachment? Some spots you have to change heads anyway. Sort of like trenching attachment and the blades on predator alien wrist knives? Saw thru thick roots and can get dirt and mud out of roots better.

[@DirtPerfect]

We have this works better

[@j.b.maxwell8300]

Mike I agree with you about your tree exterminator another good use for it, let’sdig 18 has something similar that he uses for the same purpose, yours is longer though, either way you both gain from it, that mike was one nice smooth job you done there

[@robertolmstead4075]
