Cat 815 Compactor I bought at auction, Did my gamble pay off or did I get burnt! 

I tell you what, it doesn't get any better than a video from DP on Friday morning and Clint in the afternoon!!! Thank you C &C Equipment!!!!

My grandfather lived thru the depression and he did not tolerate waste...and he made that perfectly clear to his children and grandchildren.

Really enjoy your videos, Clint. Tell Kevin he's only seven months away from Christmas - I know he's counting the days.

The CAT 518 is a log skidder. It looks like someone replaced the rear housing with one from a 518.

It's a year later, but at the time, I see Clint sleeping on the couch after this. LOL

Caterpillar made a 518 log skidder

I was telling DP he needed one of these for building pond dams, spread and pack at the same time

Thank good uncle Scott wasn’t close to the lightning strike. He could have lost the family jewels with all those bolts in his pockets. 🤣🤣

🔵🔵 Take a punch to the lock ball on the side of your extension. 👍👍

Momma's face was like "i'm not mad...just disappointed"

Now that was, entertaining, informative, up lifting, and funny as hell, thank you Clinton and the Kevin, nice to see the rest of the team Mason, uncle Scot and the charming Bridget, what an awesome video, can't wait for more.

The nice way to say it is: Educated Way Beyond Their Intelligence😂

They always say “don’t throw away your old shoes before you get new ones”, but if you want new ones you can “create” a need of course😀

Take a pair of gas pliers on that stuck extension and squeeze the ball and see if it was improperly seated in there when they put it together as the last step of the assembly. I've had that happen on Craftsman and snap on and all kinds of other tools sometimes the ball just gets stuck.

gawd you guys have all the crazy fun.. awesome to see something totally different on the channel. so we get to see a full old to new restoration on it ?

Tell Kevin after he checks the tire pressure that the blinker fluid needs to be topped off….just to be sure.

perfect demo

Uncle Scott looks grumpy, and with good reason.

Great content, great crew.

No you didn’t get burned it’s a wonderful machine that you bought 🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊

Smashing deal 👍😁

That sure is a heavy duty lawn aerator! Nothing better than big iron content!

Nice going guys

Mama looks a little mad at you better get her a new frigerator👌💃👍🚜😊😁👈

Perfect guy new machine

You guys are a Hoot!! This is why I enjoy your channel. Keep up the great videos.

Thank you C & C Always enjoy watching! Thumbs up for every video

That ending was hilarious!

Love when things get crushed

Awesome segment ,looking forward to the next ,

Kevin, “Mr. Harbor Freight” should get a Harbor freight bucket to use for returns…. One at a time of course!

That was cool. I need one of those toys.

😂 outstanding, great way to end a week! Thanks!

815's live forever. I designed the wiring and or cabs for the wheel loader/compactor lines from 1997- 2020. The only reason to ever replace the 815 is because the emissions requirements changed. They are just loafing most of their life. It does not take a ton of skill to operate it. The designs never got any love from cat. They basically got the wheel loader cab and not much else. The latest thing is intelligent compaction that can calculate the compaction on based on torque converter slip. Then it can be transferred to a virtual map. Has to be a big project to justify its use...like an airport or a huge stretch of highway. But it can improve the quality of the compaction and save a lot of fuel if done correctly. But the material selection is really important. It is not just the machine. @Letsdig18 knows his materials with all of the ponds he builds. His buddy charlie did a lot of cool soil amendments like portland cement to get the soil to compact. The bottom line, is that it is one of the more important machines on a road or pond project.

Clinton I needed your humor in this video today. Thanks.

Great enjoyable video Clint and the guys smiled all thru this one

Ok after the harbor freight has been given away, how about doing one with tools made in the USA!?

It was a fun video to watch! Thanks for sharing! 👌👍

Would that I were 30 years younger and had a green card!!! I would be down at C&C looking to work for free. I think your channel is just great. Keep on filming. Your Canadian friend.

Very good machine for crushing yes!!!

Fun video, that is one machine the Captain couldn't mess up. You all stay safe.

AWESOME 👍

Where I work at we had a forklift that was literally falling apart. They refused to get it fixed or serviced. Same with the concrete in the back where the pallets and other stuff is stored. Holes big enough to get the forklift stuck. They always said it was corporates fault but the store Mgr is suppose to ok projects with the regional.

That is my favorite video, loved it!!!😂😂

Great show today !!! Always informative and y'all have a great sense of humor all the time !!..." 'preciate y'all ! "

Great video love the show 👌

That was a little different and very entertaining.

Nice the compactor works excellent job. Have a good day.

Love the crack you guys have !! Think you maybe in trouble with the boss though 🤣🤣🤣

Never know what we're going to see here great fun video 👍

Just lov it !! Makes my week complete! Coffees on guys!!;-)!!

It was pretty funny...running over that refrigerator!

lol the way it looks nobody will want the tools I like it you guys are funny as hell keep them coming

great video Clint, i really had a good 😂when you repaired the refrigerator, wish i had your tools to fix my broken 💩😂🤣,thanks for sharing

Another awesome video.

I'm laughing at the look on Mrs C's face it kind of says it all.

Your channel is certainly growing on me. I enjoying seeing family owned and operated business thrive. Get the videos rolling.

KEEP DIGGING BROTHER !!! 👍🇺🇸💯 !! PROWED of You ! BRO 👍 !!

love it!!!!

Y'all are frickin awesome thanks for sharing 5 🌟 video hardly wait to see what happens next God bless y'all from Gaffney South Carolina viewer 🙏❤️💯

“Tire pressure” - Ha! My first laugh of the day. That was awesome.

NICE!!!

It has a bumper Thumbs up 👍

👍 That's a whole flock of sheep there, with some true Camarata at the end.

Clinton and crew great video! Keep having fun while working! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

That extension is JANKA!!!

I was going to comment on a few things that made me laugh but this entire video had me laughing out loud and one of the funniest videos you have put out Clint. Thank you it made my day.

The conversation between Clint & Kevin during your filming is a lot funnier than you may realize!

Entertaining video!

I've run an 836 many times, they are actually pretty fun to run. We also used them around the landfill to pull out everything that was stuck.

That was a 10/10 video 😁

Them are great machines, and the feet look great ,hope there ain't mutch wrongh with it !I'd love were I work for them to have one just for compacting dirt

That's a really nice acquisition for a compactor which does not appear to have needed a lot of work!

"Harbor Freight Defect's" :) Good video!

Was so funny watching Clint calm down from his wild hair. Not sure if Harbor Freight came first or the lightning hit lol

cool stuff

Absolutely brilliant having fun even though the full it department has got trouble because of a lightning strike brilliant channel best on RU-vid keep the great content coming fairly brightened up a dull Scottish morning 😂

Super sweet harbor freight tools..lol

Ya check the air pressure in those invisible tires and check the suspension for play😂.

Pack of hot dogs can slide in anywhere 😅

On the Torque test channel, the Hercules impact and drills have been giving Millwalkie a real run, and even coming out on top.

They Know The Best BOSS is coming BACK ! 👍🇺🇸💯

That was enjoyable. LOL i worked a few places that there was a lot of camaraderie. I worked there 8 years and it seemed less than 6 months. You didn't really mind all the overtime. Work is easy and not nearly as long when it is fun. Great work.

Like the content here! Especially the old school trick--put the hammer in a bucket of water so the handle will swell up. Yaa think?

The last deal was great should help sell that great machine.

Very interesting something different. Enjoyed the fridge revenge, it's better to laugh when things go sideways not much else you can do crying don't help keep up the great videos.

Same with the Ford glow plugs… the ones under the turbo never get changed

The amount of outtakes for that one glowplug 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

How could you not like this video?

Ya know most people use a racket to play squash but what ever works I guess. Great video anyway bro and guys. Safe travels

Don’t see them big ole monsters very often 👌🤘🤘

Are those still good machines for compaction, thank you for your videos, really appreciate them.

its so funny, while im watching this i keep getting email notices about big harbor freight tool sales all weekend .
