It is nice to see someone that takes pride in the work they do , your grandpa would be very proud of you Chris, he is smiling up there looking over you.
I live in Kansas and I use to go on vacation to Colorado frequently. All along the highway I could see farmland having the same things done. Bulldozers, belly scrapers and excavators digging up stumps, using rippers, etc on big acreage to prepare the fields. Many of those farms have been sold and are all grown up with trees and weeds again. Such a shame!
I remember decades ago,,, we laid pipe and they put me on a grader. Old old grader. Anyhoo my first time on one and when I got done the ole man told me I did a perfect wash board job. Lol. God bless and peace from Virginia. 🚜👍
Been watching a few of your videos as they come up on my suggestions, i find excavators and earth movers intersting, used to wotk at a factory where we made cutting edges for cat dozers, also we repaired all kinds of excavator buckets, really interesting videos, keep up the good work Do like the long reaches you operate, one of the first of your videos i watched was where you were scraping weeds out of a pond with the long reach 👍
You make it look so easy. Also know it takes a lot of concentration to take off just the bad material. I saw on stoney ridge farmer where he switched out his farm tractor seat for a cylinder cushioning seat for about a $100. You even said the dozer is rough to ride and wondering if it would be worthwhile to change out dozer seat for a more comfortable seat. Don't know about longevity, but he's 6' 5", a pretty big guy. Thanks for sharing.
We scrapped out an old "new ground disc" a few yrs ago - would have been perfect for this.. blades were 36" in dia.. 5/8" thick and SHARP.. it was 10 ft wide- and built very heavy- took a D6 to pull it.. it cut easy about a foot deep, and would roll out any stumps less than a foot in dia, split most of the rest... Old farmer would run it 3 times a year for two years, then he could plow and plant.. I think the brand was Rome- but I may be mistaken...
I would like seeing a video of that in action, lots of land being cleared, elevator companies buying every thing you can produce now a days. agriculture orders on every thing now a days.
I've done a lot of clearing for farmers and 90 percent of the time it's behind loggers which is a mess and usually is grower up like this too. If you catch it in winter you can burn it off before you clear but then you and every filter there is stays so full of ashes. Jus adds to the irritation of hitting hidden stumps and getting he'll beat out of you all day. TBE rome disc works good but they hang up w stumps if there are a lot of them.good video. That kind of clearing is a pain
Definitely has been a lot of improvements with forestry implements that can be attached to excavators, bulldozers, skid steers and even plows behind a farm tractor that would clear the land all the way down removing the stumps and turning the land into farm land Also, we don't remove debris from the property if a land owner has a forest tree line all material is ran thru a grinder then mulcher that throws the land debris into the forest making nutrients soil for the forest even sometimes putting a make shift roll of wood debris pile for animal shelters for rabbits and other wildlife Some states even require these measures in order to clear the land a percentage of debris to be left for wildlife, improvements to the soil ,even planting trees along forest lines These measures have increased wildlife and healthy forest In my area of the country these measurements have been taken due to so much land clearing for housing developments, hardly no forest for wildlife to live due to the housing developments I'm a conservative Republican and I definitely agree with these measures to perserve wildlife in my area of the country, actually these measures were a Republican idea, the Demonrats idea to perserve wildlife would have been detrimental to the wildlife due to them not having the forethought to think things thru from A to Z just like all of their worthless ideas
I have 3.3 acres of land in the country near Fredericton NB. about 288' wide 500' long. Back half of the 500' has to be pushed more to the front half. lets say 5' deep. So that would be roughly 288' x 250' x 5' volume pushed to the front of the lot. Can you give me a rough idea what that would cost? how many hours it might take. I haven't a clue how much a bulldozer costs per hour to hire. I'm asking you because you're relatively close to me.
You cut the trees, clear the stumps, then mulch the whole mess. The contractor before you botched the job he was hired to clear a field for a farm and left stumps in place to break plows. About the only thing that will get that done quickly is a forestry plow and an excavator, which is sorta what you are doing. Unearting stumps with the dozer and sorting them and the roots out with the excavator.
Have you ever tried Bush hogging over 50 acres of stumps? I have it sucks. Its like putting your tractor through an obstical course built for a tank. Bumpier than the dozer ride. Stalling out the tractor on the larger stumps when the slip clutch of the hog engages. What a pain in the ass.
I've ran a lil bit of everything, a dozer just isn't one I have. Papa had an old allis chalmer track loader when I was a little feller. Guess that's kind of the same. Good video.
Pain? How do you spell "Laminectomy" o sorry it's "Laminotomy" no, no the wife tells me it's six of each😞😥 right at 1.5m. Where's the Adamantium when ya need it?
Mulching definitely has it place, a small place. I owned a FAE attached to a 100hp skid steer and it was a workout for the skid. I have a Komatsu PC 200 LC-6 now and would much rather clear with it. Im a little partial to the Komatsu’s but those Volvo’s are some jam up machines. That’s a good all around dozer. Great videos.
My JD 450G can pretty easily knock over a 20" butt pine with some root prep and can knock over a 10" pine with a straight push. But a fresh 4" gum stump will stop it dead in its tracks.All about leverage. What you're dealing with is just a sucky task: but you're getting it done. Commenters saying bring in a dragline? or a D-9 blah,blah,blah: for a 2 acre job?! If owner doesn't get a plow onto it followed by a disc(probably multiple times) he'll have the same mess in a couple of years.Roots go deep and trash will keep coming back:especially gum trees and pin oak.
I recently cleared 13 acres of dense forest in east Texas. We took an excavator and pushed the trees over. Then grabbed the stump end and pulled it clear. Easiest way to remove them, stump and all. With that good sized excavator we'd then lift the trees and carry them to a pile. Sometimes would drag or push them to the pile with our D-6N. Burned most of it except the better trunks. After that we pushed the small trees and scrub into piles which we later burned in the winter after they dried out. The ground still had some roots and small brush which was cleared and grubbed with rippers.
Is it your company who has the diggers & dozers or someone you work for? Great videos dude. You got another subscribe n like. Keep up the quality work.
Man that hurts my back I can not or want to know how it really fells I fell for ya god bless ya hope you got a hot tub some where you can get in.And now I know if I get land and need to clear it and the guys says we can mulch it am going to fire him before he start
Timmy !!!! in the geto VOLVO need to make a bulldozer. this dozer is out of its depth but if thats is all you have then just do the best you can! but its like a asthmatic turtle with a load of shopping bags
have a few questions about the dozer. The engine always kind of sounded like it was under powered to me i’m wondering if that’s just because of the dozer’s Age, or is it a lot more powerful than it sounds? Also how big is the dozer?
For jobs like this have you ever thought about getting a forestry tiller? A farmer in my area has one and it will bust up 18 inch tree stumps rocks you name it, it will go down 12 inches deep and turn it into powder, a job like this would take him 2-4 hours to do with one guy
I can see both sides. I think Chris' point is this job doesn't lend itself to the way they usually clear land. That said there are certainly larger machines that would make the job easier. The problem is balancing the practical considerations. I assume the mere cost of getting a D9 to this site would probably cost more than the job pays.
That sucks, hes getting rid of some good topsoil along with the over growth, thata nice organic soil that will take years to get back, he should've done it right the first time I guess, but we all have our problems, maybe he just didnt have the money at the time or something, if he s going to farm that part hes going to need that good dirt, oh well, got to do what you got to do I guess
If I was the land owner, I would have had someone come in with a forestry cutter (mower) and cut all that mess down to ground lever, then have you guys come in and stump it. He could have drastically cut down on the amount of trash that had to be hauled off just by cutting it all down, real fine, to ground level!
I would have used a root rake, then go through and get stumps with excavator, then grade and disk. The dozer blade generates way to much dirt. And with out the dirt you could burn it later.
I had a guy with 8 acres that had been logged 4 years ago and he wanted me to root rake it with all the stumps in it for $1500 per acre. I said no sir, it’ll be more than that if you want me to do!
Yo, ur good. I have said it before. But are you open to suggestions? When I bought our property here north of Taos, NM> I rented a 10000 lb skid steer with a brush grapple. I have a river rocky 10 acres here covered with 3 inch and up sage brush. I did about 3 acres clearing in a day. It hurt, but not as bad as you are hurting after this. I just wonder why you didn't use ur track steer with a grapple to plow this stuff? I am learning still at 59 years old and always want to know a better way.
Dixie Chopper cuts palmetto fields in cut pine stands for clearing and grass planting to create new pastures in fla chops stomps and all push up w/crawlers and burn
I was telling my wife the other day while driving the Jeep on some dirt roads in North Floo’Da lookin at the Mess the Loggers left, all the hardwoods and pine stumps. I was Trying to Explain to her just how MUCH it Does Hurt . . 3:15 . . to run up on, or Back up on a STUMP in the woods, Goes right up your Tailbone as if you fell back on Concrete....!! 😵😩👎 I had cleared with old D-6’s, mid 70’s, Mt Olive, Fason, Goldsboro NC area, Earnest Tailor first, then Rex Whitfield.....
I'm sorry! You do some great work but are you clearing a runway instead of scrub? Even I cannot bear to watch lack of clearing. So sorry mate!! Down in southern hemisphere my clients would tell me to get out. You do high quality work though. Thank you
I think you’re in the wrong place Steve! Draglines are awesome, but they’re just too darn big. I don’t know if you’re already subscribed to PA mining, what if you’re not I would strongly recommend checking his channel out because he’s got some serious draglines there.
The company I used to work for didn't care about that shit, 4m trench right behind sidewalk to dig up glacial till to use as fill on the road, then back fill with top soil... needless to say they aren't working in that municipality ever again...
Should I rent a 100 hp bulldozer or a 19000 pounds excavator to clear 17 acres? Which one pull's or pushes stumps better.? Also I have to burn it so the excavators can make a burn pit?.....Can a bull dozer grade down a pit too? What I'm worried about is the time the dozer is 2100 USA dollars, and the excavators 1800. I'm getting them from Sunbelt rentals. It's was cut over for lumber but they lied about clean up after the harvest.there are loose trees and limps that are a huge fire hazard.
Mulching heads can be used on the trees you stack up getting the stump and all without burning but yes burning the stack of trees is faster and cheaper.
It is nice to see someone that takes pride in the work they do , your grandpa would be very proud of you Chris, he is smiling up there looking over you.
Always good to see a decent operator who knows what hes doing , well done mate
You don't know a good operator from bad, i can list 5 operational deficiencies within 3 minutes.
I live in Kansas and I use to go on vacation to Colorado frequently. All along the highway I could see farmland having the same things done. Bulldozers, belly scrapers and excavators digging up stumps, using rippers, etc on big acreage to prepare the fields.

Nice video. Great work and well done. Thanks for the video. Have a wonderful day 👍 👍 👍 👍
It`s good to see you use all the functions of the PAT blade ,a lot of operators don`t & are not getting the best from the machine . Keep pushing .
I remember decades ago,,, we laid pipe and they put me on a grader. Old old grader. Anyhoo my first time on one and when I got done the ole man told me I did a perfect wash board job. Lol. God bless and peace from Virginia. 🚜👍
That little garden tractor does a pretty good job
So you knocked some brush down .. WOW
Makes me cry watching someone do it the hard way
Been watching a few of your videos as they come up on my suggestions, i find excavators and earth movers intersting, used to wotk at a factory where we made cutting edges for cat dozers, also we repaired all kinds of excavator buckets, really interesting videos, keep up the good work
Do like the long reaches you operate, one of the first of your videos i watched was where you were scraping weeds out of a pond with the long reach 👍
Question:- why don’t they rip the stumps out when they are felling the trees and then have clear ground to re-plant or turn into farm land ?
Same as always, people should do it right in the first place, it just ends up costing twice as much.
thats why they say;"a lazy person always has two jobs "
Spot on Roland. Thats what i tell my customers. Im not the cheepest. By far. But its done right and complete the first time
And the work i see Chris do. Is nice work for sure

Also, we don't remove debris from the property if a land owner has a forest tree line all material is ran thru a grinder then mulcher that throws the land debris into the forest making nutrients soil for the forest even sometimes putting a make shift roll of wood debris pile for animal shelters for rabbits and other wildlife
Some states even require these measures in order to clear the land a percentage of debris to be left for wildlife, improvements to the soil ,even planting trees along forest lines
These measures have increased wildlife and healthy forest
In my area of the country these measurements have been taken due to so much land clearing for housing developments, hardly no forest for wildlife to live due to the housing developments
I'm a conservative Republican and I definitely agree with these measures to perserve wildlife in my area of the country, actually these measures were a Republican idea, the Demonrats idea to perserve wildlife would have been detrimental to the wildlife due to them not having the forethought to think things thru from A to Z just like all of their worthless ideas
Looks like for a mere few millions you could get a Komatsu D575A that would love to level the land!
"can't clear with the dozer.... stumps are to big".... ummm Chris I think it might be time for a bigger dozer there good buddy.... cheers from Canada!
I would not wish that field on my worst enemy! That is like a nightmare come true!

Looks like your doing best you can with what you got. 👍. It’s the old saying. If Iffens and buts were candy and nuts we’d all have a Merry Christmas..

Had been cheaper in long turn

@@chrislangdell117 they should have dug the stumps out when they took the trees down that's what they should have done

It's funny how geography can look the same in different parts of the country. In watching your video it looked like the U.P. in Michigan.
The dirt that will be hauled away would make great top soil in a few years after everything rots away.
I feel your pain man, those make for long days! It’s so aggravating running on stumps or rocks. Just beats you to death!
Pain? How do you spell "Laminectomy" o sorry it's "Laminotomy" no, no the wife tells me it's six of each😞😥 right at 1.5m. Where's the Adamantium when ya need it?
Yep those stumps hurt like hell. U have a good big push goin an bam. Back up an go again
Ya know Chris ... The way that YOU clear, chipping/mulching would work fine, because when YOU clear, you take em out by the roots!
Either way he has to get rid of it and it will be just another piece of equipment for him to operate, maintain and haul. Hes a turn an burn
Mulching definitely has it place, a small place. I owned a FAE attached to a 100hp skid steer and it was a workout for the skid. I have a Komatsu PC 200 LC-6 now and would much rather clear with it. Im a little partial to the Komatsu’s but those Volvo’s are some jam up machines. That’s a good all around dozer. Great videos.
got to love running a dozer always fun
what I see here is an opportunity to sell this farmer some of that dirt from that big pond dredging project you still have ongoing.......
Good idea when clearing a field for crops is to first burn the existing flora.. then do the clearing.. that way you also burn the seeds.. 😀😄😁

I’ve done the same with a large skid steel and a tooth bucket, just takes a little longer, but enough time and it all drys out enough to burn it all
These digging videos are strangely entertaining.
Is it your company who has the diggers & dozers or someone you work for? Great videos dude. You got another subscribe n like. Keep up the quality work.
Nice job sir!
Yup...that sucks.. mulching forest for pasturage = clearing it twice every time 🤪
Man that hurts my back I can not or want to know how it really fells I fell for ya god bless ya hope you got a hot tub some where you can get in.And now I know if I get land and need to clear it and the guys says we can mulch it am going to fire him before he start
I suppose this was before the purchase of the root rake. Or is their to many stumps to use it?
That whole job could have been done with a D9 dozer. Just run through with the ripper, pull up the stumps the blade it all off.
It ain't that easy, a 9 in an expensive thing to move and run.
Shoulda got rid of the stumps first time when taking them trees down, only cost them more money then it should have now...
I would of use a dozer rake teeth on it, they rip up roots, rocks, stumps! That they use to make a golf area with!
That's some nice bulldozerin' chris. Real nice. Thx for the vid as always!
Timmy !!!! in the geto VOLVO need to make a bulldozer. this dozer is out of its depth but if thats is all you have then just do the best you can! but its like a asthmatic turtle with a

Would a root rake not be a better tool for this job?

Nice!

The problem is balancing the practical considerations. I assume the mere cost of getting a D9 to this site would probably cost more than the job pays.
I bet he was thinking about it while doing it though. I know I was thinking about a giant with four rippers tearing through that mess.
Looks like a job for a raker blade, and maybe some ripper sub-soilers on the back. I bust a Ransomes plough on just a 3 inch root one year.
How much does it cost to own, operate, and maintain one of these machines?
Get a bigger dozer to clear the stumps too
That sucks, hes getting rid of some good topsoil along with the over growth, thata nice organic soil that will take years to get back, he should've done it right the first time I guess, but we all have our problems, maybe he just didnt have the money at the time or something, if he s going to farm that part hes going to need that good dirt, oh well, got to do what you got to do I guess
dozers are slow moving RIPPING BEASTS
you know down here in South Georgia they use the root rake a lot to do what you're doing today just something to think about talk to you later
If I was the land owner, I would have had someone come in with a forestry cutter (mower) and cut all that mess down to ground lever, then have you guys come in and stump it. He could have drastically cut down on the amount of trash that had to be hauled off just by cutting it all down, real fine, to ground level!
why wouldn't you use a root rake on that tractor
Well it's a pain but you charge accordingly lol
But I understand you probably would not need a dozer that size most of the time
I would have used a root rake, then go through and get stumps with excavator, then grade and disk. The dozer blade generates way to much dirt. And with out the dirt you could burn it later.
Hey letsdig18, how did you learn to use machinery?
Nice work, man. Where is that lot You've been clearing with the dozer?
You've got to be thankful for hydraulics, that amount of control over the blade wouldn't be possible without them.
That shit won't burn.
Need a Komatsu D575A-3SD dozer ... (:>)
I had a guy with 8 acres that had been logged 4 years ago and he wanted me to root rake it with all the stumps in it for $1500 per acre. I said no sir, it’ll be more than that if you want me to do!

They do make a sub soil mulcher that would grind all that in the ground
Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.
have you considered using a drott with a ripper on the back?
Mulch with a sub soiler and it would be way better than the mulching job that was done before

Would your root rake be of value on this job
So jealous of your soil. All i got in red pindan
Had to laugh, had an add for fecon mulchers play during this vid, lol
Wrong equipment makes the job more difficult and more expensive. Painful to watch
Anything would be too big for that matchbox toy
How do u like the d39?
Stomps are not rotten after 10 years!
Yep he should of had it done correctly the first time now he's paying to get the job done twice
You would have wrapped that job up in no time if you brought the damn drag line. #draglinesmatter.
What is a drag line? A row of effeminate men?
Steven Knorr: Man you beat me to it. The first thing I thought as soon as the video started was "where is the drag line when you need it".
@@papaw5405 im still laughin at ur comment,thats funny..

Also I have to burn it so the excavators can make a burn pit?.....Can a bull dozer grade down a pit too? What I'm worried about is the time the dozer is 2100 USA dollars, and the excavators 1800. I'm getting them from Sunbelt rentals.
It's was cut over for lumber but they lied about clean up after the harvest.there are loose trees and limps that are a huge fire hazard.

Mulching heads can be used on the trees you stack up getting the stump and all without burning but yes burning the stack of trees is faster and cheaper.
