    Pond didn’t look good in the early view. Then the comment about the clay and issues with the pond. Hope this comment is wrong and it’s filled up for a great summer. If not, then we’re in for more videos…

    Adam, it's not to often that the owner of a company will come out and show you how to run a piece of equipment! Sounds like a good company and group of guys there. Looks good just hope it didn't take away from the breast of the pond to much. Looks like part of the drain pipe laying there. As always enjoy watching!

      Double knees!!!! I wish you well Diane!!! Just take it one day at a time!
      He has been so busy here and it’s been harder for Adam to get videos out.
      We did a big project yesterday at our lake Airbnb. Video will be out as soon as he can get all the footage edited.
      It seems like every day is so full.
      The first week is the toughest with those knees. I will say some prayers for you…. 😊

    • @DDL2728
      @DDL2728 Před měsícem +3

      @AdamsMom921 Thank you for your prayers, Adam's Mom!! My first hubby, my sister and I were in a wreck in 1978 (not our fault). My hubby died instantly, & my sister & I were not expected to live through the night. My knees took the hit that broke both femurs. The doctors said I'd never walk again. My sister had horrible internal injuries. Long testimony short, God saved our lives & healed us both. My knees have worn out, so time for new ones. My doctor is amazing - the best!! So, I'm grateful to be at this point! I'm sooooo excited y'all have an Airbnb video coming. Adam is amazing. We love him & his videos & are so happy his channel is growing!! God bless y'all in all-ways!! Thanks again for praying. My hubby is taking great care of me, & our kiddos & friends are feeding us well - so blessed. I've already come a long way from Tuesday!! It's an Only God Thing!! 🥰🙏🙌🙏

    Great episode, looks like you accomplished every kids dream of the Tonya Dozer Bucket List and a whole lot more. The comparison of Dozing and Accounting is an Excellent on how two completely different jobs can be relatable with transferable skills. The efforts of harvesting Contacts/Customer with skills and with the boots on the ground knowledge being passed along with the support of a local business is what the Bedrock of what Top Shelf Grassroots Economies are Based on. His Equipment Business is probably successful and changing more than the skills of their Customers/Operator’s lives. 🤩👍👍👍

      Topsoil has organics that breakdown over time and you wont achieve suitable compaction

    Check out the cat performance handbook on production rates. There’s a lot of useful information. Don’t look at the blade when running the machine, look out in front of you to see the high and low spots so that you can adjust your blade before getting to them.

    Just curious, will the proximity to the dam effect your insurance costs for the building? Specifically, will your insurance carrier require federal flood insurance before they write "all hazards" insurance?

      The overflow area was cut in originally at the top side of the pond ….and the new topsoil area (which he plans to seed) is the large swale to divert water past the logging area.
      Hopefully he will have a pond update soon for viewers. Too many projects in the works!

  • @genewilliams7497
    @genewilliams7497 Před měsícem +1

    Your biggest issue will be the settlement you will see in the building pad over time….. three things were done wrong…. An LGP dozer will not properly compact dirt… is a Low Ground Pressure machine. You needed a small sheep’s foot roller to properly compact the cut material. The fill was placed in one deep lift and won’t properly compact. Structural fill should always be place and compacted in 8” - 10” lifts. And lastly if your cut material is not at the correct moisture content when placed the material will not properly compact……. Considering how the material was placed I would certainly not build anything on the pad for at least 6-8 months. You didn’t tell us how many hours it took to run the dozer to accomplish the work that was done. Not trying to be negative at all with my comments just 100% truthful and to give you a chance to let the pad settle/set up as much as it can considering is was built with no quality control at all and in one deep lift without any proper compaction equipment.
