I've been going back through and watching some of your old videos. I'm watching this one now and it is surreal for me. I was a forklift mechanic for 9 years, I found your videos several years ago and just could not stop watching, because it just looked like so much fun. Last year I quit my job and started my own business doing these types of property maintenance work. In the last week I've operated excavators, tellehandlers, and skid steers. Watching these videos went from "that looks like fun I wish I could do that" to "this is exactly what I'm doing for work tomorrow" lol Your videos are impactful, Andrew. Thank you for sharing.
Andrew is one of the few YTers who doesn't pander for patronage every 10 minutes...He has earned every cent he makes, and deserves every cent he makes..i admire him for his work ethic and stupendous abilities to make things better, and to do the job right...
Hi Andrew I have seen mobile concrete crushing machines and did think that you would either have one or at least have access to one? You have a wide variety of equipment so I am a little curious regarding the crusher? As others have stated Levi is showing his age my thoughts go out to you. They are part of the family.
When struggling to get the hydraulic hoses on, just turn the machine off, and then turn on the ignition. That way you can use the hydraulic function without sending pressure to the coupler, and thereby relieving the pressure, so you can connect the hoses with very little strenghth.
Andrew a man of his word. Tells a friend he's interested and even though he found the one he was really looking for he still bought the other one instead of backing out. Need more people like that.
@@JamesCouch777 he’s one of the few left on RU-vid that isn’t here for money or fame. He shows what he enjoys and doesn’t take 95% of the video trying to show you something sponsored or sell merch. I don’t think he even has merch nor have I ever heard him talk about anything in a video not related to the video
@@Netlogic. I think it was probably just a joke from the get-go... Like "That truck's a piece of $#!%, but if you put some gas in it, it'd be a piece of $#!% with gas in it!"
I absolutely love how you completely flatten the ground when you are done and you take so much care to make the property look good. You do a fantastic job.
Glad you had Levi at the end of video. He’s been a good friend through the years. Treasure every moment with him. Sad to see him get old but still good to see him.
Yeah, I want to do that too, lineup everything in front of the castle and take a picture standing in front of it, that would be a cool annual thing to do.
I like your machines and the way you get the work done. It is great to see your dogs and to see Levi is still alive and getting around. I have had a lot of dogs over the years-love them all and it hurt so bad every time I would lose one.
haha, when that fella went out of scene for a few min's and came back to his truck loaded with 25 tons on concrete, boy was he caught off guard by that! Funny thing, you were going to keep loading it up!!! hahaha loved it. So nice seeing Levi. He's been a great companion for you and for those of us that have been watching your videos for years now like myself.
The last scene really makes me feel for Levi. He aint gonna complain about the pain, so I keep gotta remember to keep my grunting and cussing to a minimum when walking up the stairs to go to bed at night. Levi's probably hurting a lot more than me and he's just soldering on.
Cody just got in-between Andrew and Levi - the little attention seeker. Don't worry, Cody. One of these days you'll have Andrew all for yourself. In the mean time, Levi is still Top Dog for many of us!
There are a number of things that I admire about you Andrew. When you finish a job the site ALWAYS looks better than when you arrived and secondly there is never any bluster or BS. You say it as it is without trying to make yourself look good. Great videos. Thank you.
There is something incredibly relaxing about watching your videos after a hard week at work. Maybe it is just nice watching someone else work. Great job Andrew!
You weren’t even there for the land clearing in the back but you did it because you care. THATS what makes you so likable Andrew, very genuine and selfless. Good job man👍🏻
love watching your videos. seeing Cody playing and always having fun is cool. poor Levi looks so beautiful, but its sad seeing him struggle so much just moving around.....
Not orginal quote "Your simply the best better than all the rest." The quote describes Andrew perfectly. Hugs for Levi and Cody ❤ Special thank you for sharing Levi in this video ❤
I really like the attention to detail you give every job. Leaving a site clean, neat and organized looking is really good for future business. Good job.
His best videos are from 1 to 3 years ago. He was grinding out jobs, fixing his equipment and working on his personal projects. The past year or two he seems to be just taking it easy and enjoying the youtube money. Can't blame the guy I would do the same if I could but the videos aren't as interesting.
@@disc2120 yeah, its the editing, lack of bs sponcers and his calm attitude. His best video was the washing machine one. I laughed so fkn hard. Seems like the guy never sleeps, just grinds and grinds.
You have many new toys to add to your collection. Always great to have back up. Perfect to get things done around the property and to make money with your business. Nice spring weather for the dogs Levy & Cody. Andrew & Family Blessings.
I really enjoy watching you do what you do. I do miss working for some guys who have small do it all company's. Every day is a new adventure! Thanks for sharing
You do good work and you always go above and beyond the actual stated tasks to make the property be in the best (reasonable) condition you can with the time you have.
I don't know how I missed this one but glad it came up again. Andrew not only adds to the concrete dump site but is a great steward and cleans it up as well. Great job!
Hello there Andrew it's nice to see you are had bizzy has ever with your two dogs. We get great pleasure watching your video's so thank you for taking the time to doing them.
Andrew, you never stop! Hard work got me to a decent... NOT wealthy, but good retirement.. You're hard work will take you and your family to a good place. And, I've always loved GOOD equipment as you seem to. That grapple jaw set you used on the slab is a beast!! Cool Tool!!
Id be willing to bet good money that the home owner did not ask Andrew to clean up that debris pile, that he did it on his own to make it look better. That's the type of person I believe he is. Good work as usual and keep em coming.
Awesome that you found not only ONE but two different sizes and NOW between the three of them, you have more flexibility for more jobs, that no longer limit what you can do. Was great to see you once again working on jobs, and pushing down those trees.. Also Cody found a new OLD yucky ball and Levi coming out slowly to great his dad, whom came back home..:)
Talking about paint, it would just be awesome to have the whole fleet of equipment painted the same color ! It't be a crazy amount of work, but it sure would look so cool !!!
Andrew, I just love your videos and your approach to each task. I see you like a real life Virgil Tracey with all your vehicles and attachments, it's just like Thunderbird 2 has dropped a pod each time you start work!
Quite humbling that he said to a friend he would buy the TL10 and got it anyway. Top guy AC I bet Matt at Diesel creek wished he'd got those I think the next big build should be a pair of steel security gates to protect AC's Castle
Those machines are amazing,the versatility and amount of work they can do. The different attachments can be as much as the machine itself I would guess. He makes it look so easy to operate.
The amount of work going into the camera footage is a lot of work also. When he shows his truck and trailer pulling away going down the driveway ,he has to stop and go back for his camera set up,am I correct in that? Sorry to sound so stupid but I know nothing about cameras and making videos
@@jumpleadsx2 the castle is forsure an autobot. Maybe a sub form or small component of Metroplex or Fortress Maximus. And the black dump would be an older autobot but all the earth moving stuff would be decepticons lol. (Sorry, I'm a transformers fan though and through, had to put in my 2 cents lol)
I'm digging that implement. I love my 4 in 1 combo bucket and it works for tear outs like this really well, but I can see some definite advantages with this setup. Another trick it to take the slab vertical while you have it clamped down, and roll it forward and over onto itself by rotating the bucket up or driving forward. Makes breaking slabs super easy. It makes the bottom of the implement the break point.
After losing to much hair fixing my old Bob Cat I bought a Takeuchi Skid Steer they are the best,.. Kind of pricey but worth it. Thanks for the new post I can't do much over here in the mud and rain.
Thanks for all you do Andrew. Those shots driving away, then having to come back for the GoPro don't go unnoticed. Congrats on the new machines and keep up the great work!
I'm not sure how I was expecting you to take out that patio, but driving up to it and just picking up an entire slab was not even on my radar... Thanks for sharing Andrew, I always learn something new watching you work. -J
I’m thinking about hiring Andrew just so I can have more content. Absolutely love this channel. Found it last year, every episode better than the last. No easy feat. Bravo Andrew, you’re the new celebrity.
I'm sad to see Levi struggling to walk like that, he looks like he's hurting. Have you taken him to a Vet to see if some medication might alleviate the pain in his joints? 😔🐕❤️ Love the old pup.
From what I've seen those compact track loaders are awesome and tough. They can do so many things. Very impressed with how well it levelled that concrete at the first place. But that small dump truck took a beating with that concrete. Great video Andrew.
I love Takeuchi's, we have 4 TL12V2 track loaders for my grandpa's pool company, im 12 and the machines are the perfect things, love your videos, keep up the good work
Cody is a big boy now, he’s so active! He loves following his daddy! Brother you’re getting a lot of equipment now, can’t wait to see you doing some jobs andrew! Time to get rid of the bobcats!
