Pond site: grade checking

[MrOrgeranyc]

btw do you ever hit rocks? looks like all you dig in is sand and clay

[318Captain]

@MrOrgeranyc Yup...and when they do, they call in some guys to blow it up. lol.

[MrOrgeranyc]

You do really nice work, i have been watching your videos learning what your doing, I'm getting ready to build my own pond in NY this last video was really nice because it explains more of what your doing rather then just dirt being pushed around.

There's a guy in Australia who really goes in depth about the whole process you should check it out here is the link.

its called harvesting water the permculture way do a search on youtube for some reason i cant post a link

[groundcontrol63]

thanks for showing this. Please show as much of this project as you can.

What kind of laser system do you have Chris? I'm looking into getting one.

[QuantityEngineers]

Do your dams have to be engineered and inspected as you build them? A lot of talk about that lately with the poorly built farm levees in Calif. Just think, 50 years from now you could be in the news when 10,000 CY of mud wipes out that new subdivision.

[Snobblight]

Expecting lots of updates when digging on that site!

[wwalsi]

Fascinating as usual, you make it all look so easy and straight forward, if only it was for the average person, 5*

[fox13z400]

[tewiginton1s]

Lasers made life so much easier for the man who works alone.

[xxbal1inxx]

Do you ever find old stuff in the dirt and collect it? Thats what my friend does when he finds things while hes diggin' pretty cool collection of stuff.

Great to see how it all starts out and how you decide what you need to do. Thanks for the video. I hope you show more of the progress instead of showing the finished product. It is nice to see the progress of any project.

[Mowin4u]

Looks like a lot of digging!

[Madill3800c]

haha chris down like snakes

[mc002crowe]

What laser do you have?I am looking to replace an old one.Iam between a topcon ht3c or a spectra percison ll100-2 both around 700.00 dollars.

[Moontrucker113]

confusing

[MRSketch09]

When you say "Cut", is that like how deep your going to go?

Also I really wish you would have went more in depth on this whole grade measuring thing.. seems like useful info. 

[letsdig18]

@MRSketch09 I'll make another video tomorrow going in more depth. but yes "cut" means to dig out and "fill" means to add

[earthmover666]

@letsdig18 nice one, head cam for hands free site walking, lol

[MRSketch09]

@letsdig18 Alright cool. And yeah, fill is common sense. But when I hear "cut" its hard to relate that word to digging.. but I know its all experience.

[cadilac345497]

[Fordfanforlife777]
