- We get some serious earth-moving work done when Tyler shows up with his Yanmar ViO55 excavator to help us with our off-grid mountain-top home build. Our main goal is to dig out enough soil in the crawlspace so we can level the house site and build our footer form boards. This excavator will assist in that and many other projects while we have it.
One thing that I find amazing is that you show SO much patients when things go wrong. No head explosions.
Meg, working that machine like a pro. Jon you’re lucky to have her!!
" everyone needs to get a Meg" stated by a man with experience😊
You guys are doing a great deal of work there. I'm glad you have the equipment.
I'm sure hoping for a video tonight. I wait impatiently every week for your nest update. I love the detail you put into your videos and the perfection you strive for in all your efforts. Looking forward to you setting the forms for the footer and milling more lumber for your home. Love you guys.
Wish granted! Rendering the video now. We've been busy as a family the past few weeks, but the chaos is subsiding. Thanks for the kind words.
The right equipment makes all the difference.
thank you my friends for another great video, looking forward for this every week, as a contractor for over 30 years, i admire youre compassion, determanation, and the care that you take for each other and youre great daughters ! looking forward for the next adventure,

Practice may or may not make perfect, but it definitely makes better. You guys are true operators now. So satisfying to follow your journey.
Impressive machine and workers! Not a toy in sight! These machines are awesome as are the operators. And to think you are video-creating at the same time! WOW!
I loved this episode, you guys work so well together. We look forward to every episode!
Was worried about you two birds but glad to see the problem solutions . Tyer is indeed a blessing for you and letting you use the Yanmar. You guys could use one full-time! Won't be long until you'll be laying foundation block!
Noticed your last episode entitled "Let's Dig" ...... Chris can certainly increase anyone's knowledge about excavating.
I’m thinking that you should name the house site Stony Point. You’ve got a lot of stones up there.
You can turn the beeps off. You just have to hit the switch on the right control panel when you start the machine.
Great job guy's, happy to see another video 😊❤
Timelapse is must….. I love your vids and have been watching since the beginning but for the love oh all that is UA-cam please do some Timelapse!
Thanks for the longtime commitment!
Great video !
Great job !
Thanks for sharing !
👏😀❤️
Next time you use a water level, try a 5 gallon bucket on one end and use a 5/8 garden hose for the main line, and only a short length of the clear vinyl tubing. You'll find the response a lot faster (might even need to dampen it a little) and it'll be a lot less affected by temperature/evaporation. Just verify the level every day and put the bucket in EXACTLY the same place every day. I normally just leave mine set up until I know I'm done with it.
In the really wet ground, you are better off using the excavator in grading. the CTL will just pump up the water from the ground and make it a mess
Greetings from the BIG SKY. Sounds like a neat piece.
You could use frost wedging to crack rocks this winter. Let freezing weather take the strain. Drill vertical holes fill with water before any hard freezing weather.
Groovin sound track up front!
Hopefully y'all are just busy with the house and nothing bad has happened!
Your ground is much like the Boulder life UA-cam channel
You have an awesome wife
I'm surprised you haven't bought a dump truck yet.
I need to
Your back I’ve been waiting for your return lol
You need to do some bush hogging out by that septic tank lol .. haha nice video
Tyler is awesome
As a suggestion for the next time you are removing rocks. Try probing the rock with a long steel rod to give you an idea of where you can more effectively get under it.
The Rubber Duckie got a work out on this one. 😂
Nice excavator, just price checked one... Out of my budget but very cool.
Out of mine too!
you should conisder buying a laser level. you can always sell it for almost what you pay, once you are done with it.
I agree. It is a well worth while investment. The water level could also be a hit and miss affair...
@@Freetheworldnow I think a couple drops of dish soap to
"wet" the water probably helps.
One thing that I find amazing is that you didn't use a hydraulic breaker on those rocks. I feel sorry for Tyler.
I always think of the ancients trying to move a big finished rock, when I see a tractor move a 'big' rock..
Not sure in machine big enough but for bid rorsk that don't or won't move accessorie rotor hammer with point to bust up rock rental?
Awesome :)
Suggestion add a tape measure to side of water level so not guessing what inch is even a Taylor's cloth tape or broken tape measure or yard stick
While not 100 percent nessary but would eliminate guessing what the actual plus or minus would be
You certainly did a lot of work with the Yanmar. Although, I felt that some of the rocks banded together to make things more difficult.
I imagine it would be so nice to have an excavator on the property. There is so much a machine like that could do, (sorry Ricky, but you're out gunned). What is the chance of picking up a decent used machine cheaply in your neck of the woods?
Cheers, EJ
Oh, no! There's a monster loose.
👍
Vi055 won’t use DEF isn’t over 75hp
Lets be honest how many of us thought it was Letsdig18 from the thumbnail
Ha. I was just at the dentist for a broken tooth. So don't feel too bad about YOUR pain. 😉
