The tooth discussion with MBTS reminds me of the farmer in the field, broke down sent his son after a wrench to fix the problem. The son comes back with the wrench only to realize he has the wrong one, so the farmer sends him back to get the right one. Now this happens about 4 times and the kid is getting upset because dad is setting in the shade napping waiting for the boy to come back. Finally the kid lets dad know he is upset and dad says to the kid it’s your fault you aren’t comin back with the right tool and says you think about it on your way to get the right tool and I’ll bet you come back with the right one this time. Well sir, the kid came back with the right tool this time because he brought back the whole tool box with him. The farmer says to the kid, “ knew you would catch on sooner or later.
Well, another great video of you and Aaron having fun joking and kidding around with each other and working on getting the job done . The river bank turned out super great and it looked amazing from the drone flying over and the scenery looked awesome also . Be careful and stay safe and keep on working. Catch you all on the next video. As always, Jeffrey !!!
I gotta love how MBTS Arron does such a good job keepin' DP Mike's blood pressure just right so his arteries don't get clogged up from that gas station food. Truck shortage !?! Where's Lt. Dan when ya need him ? Another slightly delayed excellent job done under the supervision of Mr. Arron.
Enjoyed your video immensely, Mike. Just love the interaction between you and your main sidekick, Aaron. He loves to get your blood pressure up but always comes through with whatever is needed to get the job done. Great job guys. Full-watch and have a fine week. "Aaron: "Hey, we got another truck, oh, but it's not done yet". Mike: "It would get done, if you worked more hours". The Rip Rap job came out great. 👍🏽🙂
Hi Mike. It turned out really nice. You live in an absolutely beautiful area. You placing the rock there isn't just a job, but it is preserving the beauty. Thanks for posting. Ed
That's a pretty good stretch of shoreline... After all the flooding in the region the past decade or so (the Clarksville, TN flood back in 2010, for example), I'm cured of ever wanting shoreline property. This was the same kind of project that one would see down on the Cumberland and the Tennessee waterways all the time. Nice cleanup!
I dunno if ground Hornets are the same thing we call yellow jackets around here, but if so I feel for you. Nasty stings on those jokers, much worse than any wasp(besides cow ants) I've ever been stung by. I just recently got in a nest myself. I didn't evict them, though. I buried their entrance under a couple buckets of dirt.
in Virginia I've run across them a few times while mowing grass with a push mower . It's amazing how fast you can run when yellow jackets are after you . lol
@@eaglerider1826 found a nest with a push mower when a kid ,, back then the mower stayed running you could hear the bees getting hit by the blade ,, left the mower running 10 mins or so ..
@@randytravis3998 lol. I snuck up on a nest early one coolmorning with a bushhog and parked on top of its entrances for about 15 minutes. Was a rare 2 opening nest, holes about 3 feet apart. Took a bit of careful planning to get both holes under the 5 foot bushhog before they could start swarming.. lol
C8500 impressed me. I seen you go down that hill and didn't think it would come up without help. Looks great without all that bush and garbage, did a great job. Arron, I take it he hasn't been stung by a hornet.. Them suckers hurt, especially on the face. And it's really bad when they all gang up on you and sting at the same time... I've almost died from that when I was a kid.
That’s a good looking job. I noticed that y’all were working on the banks of the Ohio River. My brother runs tow boats up and down all the rivers in the area. He’s been a pilot for a few decades, mainly for Ingram Barge Company.
I’m watching this and laughing at you working next to the water. I won’t say where I live but I worked for the State as a heavy equipment mechanic. We owned the road next to the coast. For us to work and touch the water it took permits, meetings with groups and all kinds of precautions. A simple 2 hour job had to be talked about 6 months prior. With winter and slides the original scope would change, you guessed it more planning and meetings. So glad I retired. Sitting in my service truck for 10 hours as a “just in case something leaked” sucked.
KD, it's called "job security"! Mother Nature made the river, and DP is trying to fix the river bank, that Mother Nature is only going to wash the the rock down stream next spring equals repeat business!!!😁
@@perryroberts3792 I think you missed my whole point. I bet DP understood it. We have meetings and permit reviews that take 10X the time and 20X the cost of the actual job
Knew a guy who did the same stuff as MBTS, he kept running my blood pressure up and then told me that I needed to keep my blood pressure down. Maybe smacking him upside the head would be kind of restful, worked for me.
Now you know OSHA won’t approve that ride on the outside of the truck. But since it was from two years ago, maybe the statute of limitations has run out.
I think might have a defense of “compelled by attractive nuisance”. It wasn’t his fault the manufacturer put a riders grip right above the running board!
I like to see video of the drive to and from as I get to see around the area where you work not your personal area or into the customer just around, I live in the uk and it’s like seeing the world through the you tubers camera 😎
Thanks for another great video!! The finished product look's good as always! I truly enjoy the back and forth between y'all two as much as the rest of the video. LOL Keep them coming.
Mikey, shot rock ain’t the only thing in short supply… toilet paper, bread, bullets…. The only fully stocked store I’ve been in this month is the liquor store. Thank goodness the government learned their lesson. Prohibition taught them not to mess with the flow of liquor! The job was Nicely done… the results are fantastic. And that drone flight was great. Just wondering… did you turn it around at the Market and bring it back? Or, did you just land it there and pick it up when you went home?
Nice job boys all be it a couple of years late haha. Now fancy stirring up those hornets!! Hope the face is ok Michael! Take care and be safe.Graham🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍
Great video. It sure cleaned right up. Question though. Is it not possible to run in reverse with the soil conditioner so that the track marks are covered up? I understand they are often different and operators have their preferences. Regardless, it won’t take too long for that grass to come right back. Things grow well there! Thanks for sharing fellas!!
Another Great video .. ground Bees are not fun ran a nest over last year stun 15 or so times ,, also when MBTS said he moved 2 rocks by the sign ,, yes I am sure he did ,, when he tripped on them trying to film , talk on radio and walk at the same time ..
Wow two years, at least the rock was still there!! Gunner wasn’t camera shy that day👍 MBTS keeps you going, “a little bit “ l would be in the river getting away from those bees. Looks great, love seeing rivers edge finished off like that. Got to add MBTS shirts to the inventory 🤗 Great job👍🇺🇸
👍I can see why you don't really need a bigger excavator for the close quarters work that seems to be your bread and butter work; even with most of the "farmer Chris" work thrown in. Lt. Dan would have been nice for this one. Thanks for sharing.
I hate ground hornets!! Those sneaky buggers!! lol I stirred some up while thinning out the hillside at the lake. I couldn`t run up hill fast enough and they chased me past my pick-up and down the road. I couldn`t get my saw until the next morning when it was cooler. It idled by the nest until the full tank ran out. I gave them a super soaker treatment with wasp spray. They didn`t bother me after that! lol Take care
Gotta keep that floatation device beside the seat for such jobs... lol Lost a carrier barrier in a wind farm last year and rigged straps soaked in hub oil to get the truck to a shop 18 miles away... Makes for a loooong day and some crazy looks from mechanics. Lol
You should have had Aaron put on rock teeth since you were working with rock then change back after you were done. Good way to return the favor on blood pressure.
Mike even if Lt. Dan was running only one of you guys have a CDL anyway . I was wondering why you guys never close the doors on your trucks ? Oh by the way I do have a CDL class B . I don't want to drive Class A in NYC . Love the show .
