Thank you for the shout-out for Cody Crouch with lonestardiggin! He has overcome and perservered many obstacles, but he doesn't let it get him down! He amazes me every day, even though I am his mama... Lol. I enjoyed your video, Sam, and the Lords word at the end. Have a great day!
Thank you Robin and I was glad to have the opportunity to show Cody’s perseverance and desire to do the job he loves to do. I think his story will inspire others to overcome the obstacles in their lives. God Bless, Sam
Awesome. I watch Dirt Perfect and Letsdig18 and a lot of guys doing the same kind of thing that you do. I'm a retired diesel mechanic and this stuff is in my blood I love it. I also appreciate the fact that you still remember the Lord your God in this age where the world appears to have gone mad. I enjoy watching normal people doing awesome things , thanks for showing us.
Hey Jiggs, I appreciate that and thanks for watching and supporting the channel. I know what you mean about it being in your blood. I enjoy the work and also watching Mike, Chris and all the other guys on UA-cam as well. We definitely want to remember the Lord in all we do… God Bless, Sam
Thank you Sam for another awesome message and video. This old TN red clay is awesome for building on, roads and houses, but wow it gets slick when it's packed and wet. That churt you used in the road enterance is called slate rock, and it's hard to dig. The blue slate is impossible to break up, unless you have a hammer on your excavator. God bless brother, and thank you for the prayers a few months back. My hand and ribs have heated, thank God.
Enjoyed the video Sam. I sure wish we could get some of that rain in central Texas lol send it this way😂. Thank you a bunch for the shoutout I really appreciate it brother. I think we all have our set backs and trials. Sorry devil is always trying to mess things up! Thankfully we have a God that already whooped him lol. Keep up the good word and word!,,,
Enjoyed the message Sam! That entrance turned out great! That was a lot of digging and packing. Now if the county's work will hold up. Be Safe Out There and GOD BLESS!
Looking good Sam! Agreed…. I hate mud!! I’ve been shut down for two weeks because of all the rain but that’s a minor setback in the grand scheme of things. Great message!
Nice video i always appreciate the message and that hog is so nice of road dump trucks are always good when building roads which is my favorite thing to do
This job would have been difficult to do without the JCB 714... you got that road looking nice and i appreciate the message thans for spreading God's Word🙏
Hey Sam! Great video as always. Love your content and your faith in the Lord. I’m 16 and realizing He is the only thing we got left to fully rely on in life. 😂 😆 Recommendation…once you recoup money from the swing gear maintenance, you should get a quick coupler for the 313. Then you could have a wide grading bucket for moving lots of material. Also you could get a root rake for scraping root mat. Thanks again for your content. Have a great day!
Thanks Dominic, I appreciate that and like what you said about the Lord being the only thing we can fully rely on. A quick couple would be nice to have for sure… God Bless
Thanks Durwin, I appreciate that and welcome to the channel. Mike and Aaron over at Dirt Perfect are great guys and I’m thankful for their help. Was that in a recent video or one from a while back? God Bless, Sam
Thanks for the video of road building Sam working the hog jcb nice and hard ❤❤ well done 💯✅ all good. Take care of yourself and family and friends and be Blessed ❤️. Need a strong foundation road bed just like the Lord Almighty. Amen ❤️.
Lonestardiggin has now been added to subscribed list, what an inspiration! Never cut all of the trees off of a bank that you could possibly fall of of!! Ask me how I know! Drive is looking awesome. Hate the weather has been so crazy but you have persevered
@@tristardiggin I very much enjoy your channel, esp since we only live about 1.5 hours apart (Murphy, NC) so we are somewhat neighbors. I admire you values and work ethic, and teh quality of the work you do, how you treat others, etc. Just wanted you to know that as a viewer, your channel is appreciated and enjoyed.
@bobgrier3103 Hey Bob, I really appreciate what you said. It’s cool to know folks are enjoying the videos. Yup, Murphy isn’t too far from me… Thanks, Sam
Hi Sam looks like Mother Nature been fighting you pretty hard on this project. But that entrance turned out very nice,looking forward to the next one, as always your message was spot on Thanks Sam 👍🏻
A-1 message today,thanks, very good video, seems like your road building skills and videos are getting better all the time, getting ready to look up lone star digging now!!!
Thank you Brian and glad you enjoyed that message! I definitely enjoy building roads and I learn a little more from each one I do. It’s pretty amazing what Cody can do with his left leg running the excavator… God Bless
@@Ashley-wl1qn Ashley thank you and what an amazing God moment that was! Wow, can’t believe that just happened! I appreciate you checking out the channel and God Bless you as well…
You are definitely learning more all the time. First thing I would have done is slim the road then spread a few inches of chirt over the whole thing. It's just going to be a better base for the finished product. Besides you definitely were living right because you didn't wind up upside down in the creek bed.
Good work on that road entrance- what a job that was, have to wonder if the land owner had any idea what it would take. Looks great now you could run a semi in that entrance.
Thanks, I appreciate that! It was definitely a doozy to build. We talked about what it was going to take to build it but the mud being a lot deeper than we imagined was a kick in the gut for sure.
Good Job on that driveway. Endurance and Perseverance with faith in the Lord always wins 🙏 we do the 90 of the work the Lord does the impossible 10%. He is good all the time.
Man that’s a cool video you got here. I knew that JCB trucks was going to work good for you. You got more work in video production than road building 😅. Seriously great job!
Hey thanks, I appreciate that! That JCB is the ticket. Would have a hard time without it. I would say you are right on more work in the video than the road! 😳🤪😀
When they get a lot of rain I'm afraid that culvert is going to be too small. There is going to be a lot of water coming down that holler. Hopefully I'm wrong and you won't have a problem.
Hey Sam how are you bro . Sam JCB truck doesn't have all wheel drive option? 2nd , i like that you Wears DP's shirt 😁👍 And finally always thanks for your beautiful Christian's massages 🤗🙏 Joseph from Lebanon 🇱🇧
Hey Joseph! Yeah it has 4x4 but I didn’t realize the switch was in 2 wheel drive there for a few minutes. Glad to wear DP’s shirt. Mike and Aaron are great guys for sure. Certainly glad you are enjoying the message… God Bless
It is, I thought I had it in 4x4 but realized right there at the end of that segment that the switch was in the wrong position…🥵 It was working great after I actually got it in 4X4…🤪
Why could you not build the road from the top down, rather than from the bottom upwards? Fewer trips on slippy surfaces would make it quicker j my mind? But I'm not doing heavy landscaping for a living, so I might be very wrong!
Hey Sam, good job ! 👍 The result is good, in the first video I thought it was a small project but there was a lot of work ! Is the 313 problem solved ?
Hey Jeff, welcome to the channel and I appreciate the support. The dozer is a 2018 D5K. I messed up the stickers with a hot water pressure washer! 🥵 God Bless, Sam
@@tristardiggin I’m in upstate NY (forgive me lol). Man I’ve lived here my whole life I have never experienced this much rain. The last two years have been very strange in regards to rainfall. Keep on keep’n on. God bless.
@jont9903 Jon, it has definitely been wet here lately. I’ve heard Dirt Boss and Dirt Brute Steve talk about all the rain up that way too. Hopefully we will dry out and get some good work going soon… God Bless
You know how much I enjoy your shows,but I wished you didn’t use so much fast motion ,I enjoy watching you do actual work in real time,you work long days and definitely can get a good hour show,and always keep the Bible lessons,keep telling the Good News
You did a video the other day and did not talk until the end because you said some one said you talk to much. If you know who Out Doors with the Morgans are, You are a lot like him. You do talk a lot, But you and Mike Morgan both point and wave your hand around to much. I like you because your a preacher. That is all I have to ay.

This job would have been difficult to do without the JCB 714... you got that road looking nice and i appreciate the message thans for spreading God's Word🙏
Yes, it would have been very difficult without the Hog. Probably would have had to haul in dirt from somewhere else to build the road.

Perfect road base. It don't get much better than that. Looks fantastic. Great message also . Wondering if you got to take your septic test yet ?
Thank you Ron! That road should hold up to what ever you throw at it. I did take it and passed it. It was a little harder than I thought it would be…
When they get a lot of rain I'm afraid that culvert is going to be too small. There is going to be a lot of water coming down that holler. Hopefully I'm wrong and you won't have a problem.
Well I hope not. But it is the same size as the one that has been there for a lot of years before adding onto it.
Thanks,
Sam
That area I would want to dig a 2 ft deep ditch with drain pipe and 1" drain rock to take the water which will be in that area.
Yeah, that would work pretty good! Thanks for watching…

Why is the dozer beeping so much?
It is the seat belt beeper. I guess I have just gotten use to it.
Looks like you were trying to compact a sponge the way that chirt was pumping.
Kirk, it sure did feel like a sponge for sure! Turned out pretty good at the end and should be there a long time…

The 313 is back in service and doing great…

It’s not ready just yet for stone on that slick part yet. Just roughed in at the moment but won’t be too much longer though…

You need Todd (DigginLife21) there. He could fix that road for you. It would be dry as a bone. He knows how to build those mountain roads..
Yeah buddy, ole Todd could have fixed this one right up! I text him your comment and he appreciated that! 😀

Why could you not build the road from the top down, rather than from the bottom upwards? Fewer trips on slippy surfaces would make it quicker j my mind?
But I'm not doing heavy landscaping for a living, so I might be very wrong!
Every road build is a little different and a lot of ways to do them for sure. I just kind of get started and build as I go.

Hey Sam, good job ! 👍
The result is good, in the first video I thought it was a small project but there was a lot of work !
