I know very little about construction and even less about excavators, but what fascinates me about these videos is the effortlessly natural way that Chris operates the machines. Watching the bucket and thumb move is like watching an animal feed, with Chris's joystick inputs so incredibly fast and nuanced it's as if he's just moving his own arm. Pretty sure he could use that 48" bucket to pop a bottle of champagne or caress a daisy.

The amount of power in that machine is simply awesome. Go out in the yard and grab a hold of a 1” sapling and try to rip it out of the ground. This thing is crunching through branches a foot or more around like tooth pics! Great content!

It's such a pleasure to watch someone with your skill and work ethic move big stuff around. I only worked a few years in landscaping and only with hand-tools, though we did take down some big trees too but I can relate to the satisfaction at looking back over a hard day's work in the evening and fixing problems. These also work great to calm my anxieties.

You know a machine is heavy when you can see the camera vibrate some when the machine is moving around like 100ft away. Have always been impressed with the 250's power, especially when it can pluck bigger trees out like they're weeds in sandier soils. Good to see it back in action.

Looks like a great plan! My friend over north of Amarillo, Tx complained his natural springs dried up and his creek that used to flow had dried up and never came back. Now droughts are common there and it’s arid, but the springs would keep the creek flowing. In the rainy season it was full but then it would die off once the rains were gone. He learned that it was the trees causing it. Salt Cedars soak up several gallons a day. They’re kind of a scrappy tree and he cleared them all out. The springs flowed nicely and the creek went back to its normal flow. Trees can affect bodies of water for sure!
