DIY Site Prep For a New Post Frame Building - My Brother's Pole Barn Part 1

I used all of my equipment and borrowed some more to help my brother get started on his pole barn by first prepping the building pad. We hauled in a bunch of clay with my F-750 dump truck to raise one side of the pad by about 2 feet. I used my John Deere 310SE backhoe to load the dump truck and we had a Bobcat S650 knocking down the piles. My brother Nate compacted the building pad for his pole barn with a little sheep's foot vibratory roller and although it took all day, we were able to get it mostly done how we wanted.

Man... now I’m thinking of how handy a dump truck would be for my farm!

[JamesLeatherman]

Loved all the angles, especially the one with the soil deformation under the truck. The little things really make these videos.

Multi-part viseos give you something to look forward to. You make all this look so easy. I have a project like this in my future. Great job!!

Someday I'd love a video on your Dad's equipment. Especially that tractor. Maybe your Father in laws old 9N as well

The multi-part episodes give viewers a better sense of how long a job really takes. Five star channel!

As always, Great segment!
Great to see you back to doing jobs.
15-20 min clips turned into multiple videos are cool!
Just happy to have some of this type of media.
Have a great Labor Day

That’s a nice pond you all built! I absolutely love what I think is your Dads Ford tractor, definitely would like to see more on that thing! The truck sure sounded good pulling out of that dip loaded. Projects looking good! Take care!

Just wait until the dog sees the size of his new house! And now he’s got a lake front vacation house too. I’ll tell ya that’s a lucky dog😂

Dayum you are bossy Neil! Personally, I like the long format videos better. I know they are more time consuming and a pain in the ass to edit, but I find them more enjoyable. The rationale being, I like to collect 4 or 5 videos from my favorite creators and sit down and watch them through as kinda like a treat. Making an evening of it as it were. However, I'd still watch 5 minute videos of you rolling the trash cans out to the curb. Your world brother, I just live in it. You do what makes you happy. I would still like to get Greg on the phone and discuss your "authoritarian" issues.
