I do believe that's the first smooth edge spade nose bucket I've seen. All the ones out west have big teeth. So I'm guessing where you're at they don't have the typical pit run like we do here in Jpaydirt country? Just curious because the material you were using we call crusher reject or pipe bedding material. Usually we use pit run for filler because it is cheaper and has better drainage qualities. Great video Chris!

They told me to just creep the right front into the duals of the truck then dump my load. Is MICHIGAN still in business or did they get gobbled up? sdh in CT

I have noticed, in several videos, you putting in the pipe to connect the driveway. My question, do you have to be bonded in N.C. In order to get the encroachment permit from D.O.T. ? In Kentucky, before I was given a permit, I had to provide the pipe, but the State Highway Department completed the connection. Had I chose to install it myself, I would have had to post a bond, which was an unbelievable amount. Anyone who knows the answer, please comment. Thanks.
