This will sound corny but it is an honor to watch someone who knows how to go to work. Your driving and operational abilities are out standing. I wish you lived up where I am.
I love watching the work that you do and admire your attention to detail. If you were in my area I would definitely hire you with confidence that the job will be done right.
LOL, Every time I see one of those packers now all I can think is "Whacker packer" from that auction video a few years back. Good stuff, you guys collab well!
Boy it's about time you made that Elite Earthworks dude do something! lol. All I ever see him do is ride around in a machine or a truck normally, and every once in a great while he gets out and holds a rake in his hands to make it look good for his viewers!
This reminds me of when Brandon unloaded and set his box on that retention pond job. Seems there was a couple machines involved getting that box off the trailer. And then another project with the flare and inlet pipe etc. Fun times all around! Lol
Discovered Letsdig18 last week. Very cool. Great vids and commentary. The operator is awesome. So skilled and knows his stuff as well. Very impressed with all aspects of him and his craft. I bet he could thread a needle using his excavator ! lol
Mr Elite ain’t scared of work I’ll tell ya ! Nice seeing u two working on a project together !! Told him several times he needs more ponds on his channel so I think it’s pretty damn fitting that’s what he’s helping u on !! Lmao. Hey Brando !
Man, that is some high quality help you got there. Teaching the man some pond stuff or just making a friend go to work when he comes to visit? ;) It is an awful long drive from Missora for a day job. I once knew a guy like that he was from Gaylord, Michigan; we called him Detroit Ron for obvious reasons. Thanks for the videos, Chris. Don't work Brandon too hard or he might expect to get paid.
@@mrs.eliteearthworks "I have had enough of this work around here, I need a break. I know, let me go work with Chris for a week," Brandon- possibly. that is quite the man to take his vacation just to go work somewhere else.
Brandon stays any longer yall are gonna have to sit down and talk about merging lol. The "Elite Lets Dig Earthworks 18" channel. Patent pending apparel on sale first day of spring 🤘😅
I’ve done this before when I was working for the yard crew at a slaughterhouse. We where building waste pits and digging the canals out and putting in risers and grouting the plastic pipe it. Tho sadly I always got the blocks that where a foot thick of concrete and had to use a sledgehammer and sometimes hit rebar aw that was hard work
Worked with a guy that couldn't figure out a log tape, 1' increments with a shoe nail on one end, and a clip to attach to your belt, dude insisted he needed someone to hold the end for him, and couldn't figure out how to attach the tape to his overalls... Few days later he left, very upset at me... (this is after I damned near swung a bucket full of logs into him cause he walked up on the machine I was working in, chewed he ass for trying to shovel tracks on the same machine while I was trying to load logs with it, then spent the better part of 8 hours staying warm in the service truck while the rest of us froze our muddy asses off... BTW he ran that service truck nearly out of fuel 45 miles from the nearest station... I of course managed to finish it off 3 mi from home, in the dark on a winding road... cause the fuel gauge didn't work at all grrrrrr)
I work on my family farm with my grandfather though my parents own a construction company, underground piping and steel structure building mostly these days, so I’ve been around a lot of the equipment you use and ran too but I still like the vids. I do mostly stay away from the construction side of the family business as it’s never interested me as much as the farm side.
More!! Wish I could play with dirt all day once in a while, I’m sure you get sick of it sometimes... I definitely don’t get sick of watching you tho...
Chris you and mr. dirt perfect need to have a discussion on laying the bell end of the pipe in the right direction. He disagrees with you and I can’t figure out why! Both of you know what your doing when you work, but I wish you two could come up with a discussion on the matter for all to see!
as you were crushing the old concrete pipe, I couldn't help wondering why you didn't toss a couple of them in the pond for fish habitat.... but from the looks of the silt in there, they might just sink and become a nuisance for the person that gets to dredge that one.
Dang Chris how did you resist not stacking those piece of concrete pipe sections you removed?!? I would made a little pipe sculpture outta those pieces
Watching you and Dirt Perfect finesse those controls is like watch Isaac Pearlman playing a violin. I think you beat Dirt Perfect by a G string. LOL You guys need to teach the new kids that it is not a video game where you slam those controls. It's all in the wrist.
Chris hold on! Brandon has to put his welding gloves on first, i could swear i seen those gloves in the middle of the pond towards the end of the video, i’m just busting his stones, it’s cool homeboy came down to help out.
I’d like to know how Brandon got to get away from his significant other this long.unless she’s in Cancun with her girlfriend.lol your doing a great job as always.😎😎😎👍👍👍
That guy is Chris's uncle John. Uncle John owns the company which he bought from Chris's grandfather when he retired. Chris also has his own company. You guys keep criticizing or. Telling him how to. Run things he just might stop posting videos. And you'll have over 1/2 million people looking to stomp on you. If you don't like what you see then go watch some other channel. Chris's grandfather would take Chris with him on the machines when he 5 or 6. I would listen to Chris than some ding-a-ling.

Wonder what he would do with MBTS?(Dirt Perfects alter ego)
2K+👍's up guys thanks again for taking us all along with you for the great show
Good to see your guest is handy with hooks and a digger bro. Great video too. Y'all say safe
If you look at the far edge of the pond when the video starts you will see a Great Blue Heron. I am sure he helped remove the fish.
Probably ticked off now that his meals are missing...

Something for post 10 to keep unblocked in the future.
For sure! Good lookin out for the guy! He would love to keep it unblocked, im sure!
Enjoyed the video, you're an excellent operator!!
Love the video Chris and Brandon , very good job .
Thank you!
Great job guys 👍
Fascinating 👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I watched this today and I forgot to tell you what a great job you did
The pipe can make an awesome covered slide for a kids tree fort.
Love those closeup view of concrete box and pipe.we need to see other aspect of your work not just digging and scooping.Full marks👍🏻👏👏
Excellent skills!

I Love your work Chris.looking great and like you said best looking pipe ever layed. Nice video and keep Up the good work man😀👍👍👍
0:34 That heron probably snatched all the leftover fish.
You are like a sculptor, with your digger - fantastic !
Us Missouri guys aren't afraid to work. 💪
That’s RIGHT! 💪🏻
You got that right! 👊🏼
Aaah, the guys that make Post10 happy by doing away with the old and in with the new.
Perfect placement all together.
I would much rather have the hole when the concrete too large then being too tight or too small 👍 nice job!!
It is about time he works with the big boys sorry Mr elite awesome video
😂
You make it look easy but we all know it's not your first rodeo.
👍👍😀🍁

I did pipe for 20 years that's the nicest I have ever seen any box cut out lol
it did turn out right nice didnt it lol
This pond is screaming for some more work to be done!
I think a 100 trucks of mudd is ready to get moved out.
More!! Wish I could play with dirt all day once in a while, I’m sure you get sick of it sometimes... I definitely don’t get sick of watching you tho...
12 hour days doing pipe can get old but its also rewarding looking at your finished product. my operator runs a 349 cat.
*I'll bet that mud smells lovely.*
Yeah Chris I think Brandon liked the 220. But anyway brother another great video you John and Brandon y’all stay safe and keep them coming
I love your channel
this is better than TV
0:40 love the bird on the bank love what your drink cup says
Chris you teasing him with the big Volvo you quit that. Haha
thanks for sharing the video
Love the video Chris
I bet you can write in cursive with that piece of machinery.
Chris you and mr. dirt perfect need to have a discussion on laying the bell end of the pipe in the right direction. He disagrees with you and I can’t figure out why! Both of you know what your doing when you work, but I wish you two could come up with a discussion on the matter for all to see!
been a while since John has wore a pair of long pants. must be cool there for that.
Straight corrugated pipe was the best invention. Concrete sections were more labor intensive.
as you were crushing the old concrete pipe, I couldn't help wondering why you didn't toss a couple of them in the pond for fish habitat.... but from the looks of the silt in there, they might just sink and become a nuisance for the person that gets to dredge that one.
Concrete habitats, does'nt the concrete slowly make the water more acidic over time? For ponds I guess that could be an issue.
Brandon would make a good employee.
Ask Mrs Ellite if she can send him up for Monday morning and you can send him back Friday Afternoon!
Or we could just move to NC.... I hear they have bank jobs there too 😁
Are you gonna provide the jet?
@@mrs.eliteearthworks No stage coaches or trains to rob though!
🤣 yes
That camera would be nice. I hate having to turn to look back.
Great vid as always you make look easy and fun
Are you going to dig out the silt too or just the overflow and dam repair? We all know how much you like to play in the mud Chris lol !
Chris make a part two for this video please
Dang Chris how did you resist not stacking those piece of concrete pipe sections you removed?!? I would made a little pipe sculpture outta those pieces
this guy has the city smiling.... nice iron pads to protect the streets

I never miss an "episode." It's part of my evening routine now.
Since you do a lot of these pipe connections, maybe design a collar to take up the space around pipe.
they make them, but compared to the cost... give a laborer a bucket of grout while you take lunch
“ I think Brandon likes the 220”
Brandon gets home he will be trying to talk Mrs. Elite Earthworks into getting a 220 of his own.
He’ll have try try REALLY hard for that one 😂
