The way Andrew beats the crap out of everything he owns is extremely entertaining to watch. Even jumper cables get thrown and smashed around. I suppose you find the true quality products with this approach.
-
Andrew is maturing day by day. "I dont think i can put that in there..." FINALLY a good decision when it comes to that poor dodge. Lol.
-
Andrew, just a thought with that screener, don’t do a full rotation immediately. Do like a half rotation and do it back and forth just a little bit until enough dirt comes out that you can then do full rotations. I think you can avoid having to dump out the first Extra amount by rocking it back-and-forth initially to get some of the dirt out. Hopefully that makes sense.

Andrew, have you looked into renting / buying a screening plant? They process LOADS of material into 2, 3, or 4 different grades, and there would be less unwanted material in each pile. I noticed that your screening bucket tends to spill lots of larger rocks on the first spin. With your literal mountain of crushed stone, it might be worthwhile to use a machine that's designed for quantity.
-
The big pieces come out on the first roll. Spin it once outside of the truck bucket to get consistent product size.

Andrew sure could use a major battery sponsorship !!!
-
38 years of age and I still get way to excited to see what Andrew and the dogs are up to next 😂😂😂😂😂
-
17:30 I remember this guy. He was nice enough to give us a house tour. Glad he is doing well ! Nice garage !
-
I’m shocked that Andrew doesn’t have quick connection points on front of truck for battery cables!
-
Damn, what is it about this man's videos? When I see the notification I hope it's a 4 hour video. Dude has it figured out.
-
Two things came to mind watching this one. 1) Andrew has come a long way in may facets of life from when I started following him years back when the first vid i saw was him salvaging a sunken jet ski and restoring it. 2) Seeing Lacey just makes me think of Levi and his Lab inspections but Blue and Cody's wonderings bring a chuckle and grin to my face.

You're gonna love that. Very diverse. We use them to screen the spoils on site of the swale rehabs down here in Florida. Great tool to have in the box
-
"You know, I don't think I can put that in there..." - words I never thought I'd hear from Andrew. Another great video. Only wish it was longer. Alternatively, multiple, shorter videos each week work for me. Early Christmas...

with your quarry, you could make a set off vibrating grizzly screens and slides or belts to grade your mound of gravel. then use the bucket for the last level. you could even have the first screen feed the crusher for oversized chunks.
-
If I remember righty, some years ago, Andrew went through the process of testing the best method of screening. I remember a big vibrating screen on a slope that was fed with an excavator.
-
43:00 After loading, do the first rotation above where you got the rocks/material. This allows the large pieces to fall out then move the screener above where you want the screened material. Hopefully resulting in far fewer large pieces in the final material. 2:40 Idle up the engine so the alternator can push out more magic pixies :D Usually at tick-over it barely charges. Lacy is looking old now 😔 last 7 years have flown by
-
Would love to see you add a secondary 'cone type' crusher, would save so much time and effort resizing that material.
-
Another good video. After watching other videos of dogs that repeatedly go after porcupines I wonder why they don’t learn to stay away too. Poor Blue.
-
That screening bucket looks very expensive, very heavy and quite inefficient. Why do so many big chunks fall out on the first rotation? That seems wrong. Of course, beside that I loved the video and appreciate the effort you make to share your exciting life with us, as always. Cheers from Germany.

Congratulations Andrew I think once you get another screen you will be very pleased with the adaptability so sorry to see blue getting into trouble with that porcupine and I hope they were able to anesthetize him but maybe he didn't have too many quills to do so, I really couldn't tell. Until next time may you all be abundantly blessed with all that's good
