    "We'll see if the basement fits in the hole" spoken like a true BOSS Mike!
    Very nice material on that job, like your simple layout calculations for grade and depth, also your thoughts on the layout. Much respect for you working alone the 1st day, with just your rod man.
    Do you typically have the option to haul off excess material from the jobsite after your backfill is done? That's some "perfect dirt" as you stated. I'm very impressed with your smooth edge grading bucket also, seems to do a sweet job and move large amounts of dirt quickly and the 120 doesn't seem to mind at all. Nice operating, great video, and narration bud. 5 stars!
    Looking forward to the floor drain installation particulars and your process for installing the underfloor rock with the drains in place. Work safe

      I was running a CAT 235 on a job near Des Moines back in the early 90s and some bones came up with a scoop on this high ground above the river all overgrown in big oaks and per protocol,1st the police - then after them, they contacted the archeology department and they determined the bones were from a horse. They kept digging carefully and found some human remains and more horse remains and other artifacts - turns out it was a Native burial ground. Never heard of being buried with your horse before?! This was a large golf course, luxury homes development and that whole process ate a bunch of time. Depending on who you're working for, if that happens, many times (sadly) the command comes from the foreman to keep digging and bury that shit fast!

      @TrevorDennis100 4 роки тому

      Good point. We see Chris Guins loading their dump truck with everything from dirt to cleared timber just to move it 50 yards to a bury pit or burn pile. We have also seen him use their big excavator while Tim is using the dozer, and Chris reckons he is moving six yards to Tim's one. They use the dump truck even when Chris has to keep jumping from excavator to dump truck and drive it himself. When you are moving thousands of yards, then stuff like that can add up to a whole lot of time saved.

    • @DirtPerfect
      @DirtPerfect  4 роки тому +1

      All depends on how far your going on this short of push truck would just be in the way because you still need the dozer to push in a pile on a longer haul I agree

    • @DirtPerfect
      @DirtPerfect  4 роки тому +1

      About 70 yards the change over to a truck depending on size a dozer you have we where going 45 yards on this one
