I didn't realize at first you were so familiar with the territory. I thought, dang, he is pretty brave wading his machine through that deep water. he is going to find a soft spot and get stuck. Then I realized you knew exactly where to go. Nice work... you could see the water already receding by the water marks on the bottom of the trees.
thats a nice clam shell bucket had to look twice to check it out at the beginning of this video. Did you make that your self i like it does what it does and more
It is amazing that humans needs a million dollar piece of equipment to build a lake but beavers and just chew down a few trees and back up the world lol
My boys would always go brake their 🦫 dam and sit down and wait for them to come to rebuild it and then remove the culprits. We are in river bottom land and fight with them all the time
I'm assuming you're been in the area before. If not then this video could have gone a completely different way. Instead of a coming across a burnt machine like you did, someone could have stumbled upon a stuck machine. Great job!
I love the idea of having a trailer hitch on your blade. Do you use it very much? A female operator called duckgirl has her own machine and pulls her wagon around with her all the time and uses it for moving materials, attachments, and supplies all the time.
It's useless cleaning creeks like in this video. We have a creek just like this that runs 80 acres and every huge rain storm moves downed trees and silt down stream. The mess never stops as long as trees are on the creek banks.
You worked hard to get where you’re at and it is so cool to get to follow your daily adventures!

I like the bucket on your excavator, pretty neat how it works.
Called a Jawbone bucket.
At least someone is having fun. I cannot wait until I get my mini x so I can dig around my property. 😊
It was deep, cool video..and thank you for your efforts to get the best shot even crossing the creek to retrieve the go pro.. have an awesome day
Thank you. You too!
Do you have to change oils, after working in deep water?
Thank you Tim.
It was a good video. Interesting watching what you do.
Blessings
Ed from Chicago! 🙂
Thanks, you too!
Hi if you had forgotten your camera, you may have gotten some shots of the beavers 🙃. 👍🐝🌞
Lol yes
That Jaw bucket turned out to be a very helpful tool. Thanks for sharing.
It sure is!
What keeps your excavator from sinking in the muddy bottom?
Great job Tim, and if You do get stuck, Jason could come over and pull You out with The Beast😉👌👍🙏🙂

@@cotontop3 I don't know why but it's so satisfying to watch beaver dams get destroyed... I have some kind of hatred for beaver dams😁😁
@@josephboley u and me both lol
Wow!!!😲🤠💯🤙👌Nice 😊
Thank you! Cheers!
@@cotontop3 🤠👌👍
That's a hell of a to half to clear beaver dams great video time you didn't even have waders on great job
Thanks 👍
Any plans to put a snorkel kit on the mini? 😉
That’s a thought lol
Those beavers can be a bit of a nuisance at times - good to see the work in the swamp with the mini.
Don't they use explosives anymore?
It is amazing that humans needs a million dollar piece of equipment to build a lake but beavers and just chew down a few trees and back up the world lol
No one told beavers they needed equipment to do dams, like humans are told.😀😁😉
That’s one way to clean out the tracks 🤣
Tim, sat in my office eating my chicken sandwich while enjoying watching you bust those dams, thanks . Cheers !
Any time 👍🏻
Is that a 'wear a Protos zone' with all the swamp rot trees?
My boys would always go brake their 🦫 dam and sit down and wait for them to come to rebuild it and then remove the culprits. We are in river bottom land and fight with them all the time
Yes sir 👍🏻
Looks like the stuff we used to drive though logging in the 80s on those old 640 and 648ds and a bell cutter lol
Tim, you need to get a hydraulic thumb for that excavator! Good job though!
I took the thumb/cylinder off and still have it. I don’t run it because I run the grapple all the time.
@@cotontop3 Ahhh, gotcha!

I use the hitch all the time.
There must be a lot of beavers in your area.
Nice and smooth
That Jawbone is handier than a pants pocket dude
Along as you don't get wet it's a win.
Are those Khul pants you're wearing?
Yes
@@cotontop3 Great pants! I have several pairs of Revolvr. Will try their Rydr next which is what it looks like you;re wearing. What's your EDC?
I had to break some beaver dams up by hand with long tooth rake like watching your videos
waiting to see a water moccasin swim by
Good place for that to happen
Howdy cotton
Say goodbye to all your track rollers in a year or two.
Not true, I’ve had them like this many times in 4 years.
@@cotontop3 you must have a luck batch that are better sealed than other Kubota U55's
I miss when you could walk into Amory Sand and Gravel with your driver's license and pickup a case of kinepak
Well Thats one way to clean tracks lmao
That thing just wanted a bath lol

Instant angry beaver!!
