Folks, that's a 30 Ton rock truck; each loader scoop is conservatively 12-15 tons. I'D LOVE TO KNOW HOW MANY T H O U S A N D S OF TONS of rock Andrew processed and used! What a job. Thanks Andrew for taking us all along!!!
I've would bet between 60-75 000 tons.
The real question is what ultimately is all this work for? This has to be like 100's of thousands of dollars of work if you hired it out. Just to be able to drive up the mountain easier? To go snowmobiling? It doesn't really add up...
@@gorak9000he is probably developing that property to sell. Even if he doesn't make a profit on the property, it'll still have provided years of video content. Makes much sense if you are a Yotuber
@@gorak9000 he's going to build another castle. it was in his last video
Andrew dose not buy stuff to sell later... the property will likely be developed in the next year.. there was mention of a new castle in one of the last videos ??
That was a classy move with the chainsaw Andrew. You can tell a lot about someone’s character with thoughtful gestures like that. Awesome. 👏👏👏
Not a New York city guy for sure, man with a big heart..
I wondered if it was just "a guy that has been showing up" or did Andrew hire him?
Hi good afternoon Andrew you never fail in these videos great variations and work ethic you don't get these days especially from younger people you're kindness to you're work mate was tops best to you and family regards and smiles from Scotland 🇬🇧🏴
Not sure Sam was thinking he's that classy.
@@fhwolthuisit is his father…….
I don't comment much on your videos but Ive been watching since you opened the channel years ago.. and I loved that timelapse from 108:00 and going into the night and then shutdown.. gave me goosebumps recalling this past summer working sun-up to sun down loading trucks or a screen plant and like those beautiful summer windy nights ontop of your mountain .. that song went great with it to, piano or something top of the world sounds
Thank you.
That chap you had helping sure knows how to run a skid steer, he was fast. The crusher works well too. Great video
Been watching since the castle was still under construction - love everything you do but especially the machine repairs and maintenance! Can't wait to see the progress on the hill property too! Cheers from Australia
I've been watching since then also
More like a mountain.
@TiffanySmith-ed2lj ill have two.
Me too, one of the best equipment channels on You Tube.
I’ve been watching since he had quit being a fireman and left the fire department there were only about 300 subscribers at that time. I turned 79 years of age. But I have so trouble remembering very good I have a brain tumor from agent orange in Vietnam and Cambodia I was U.S. army special forces ranger many years ago. I love watching him learn and grow fixing so many things. I bet same with everyone else I sure would love to drive that big beast. Bless all of you we have so much in common we like to watch him to.
the lengths and effort put into this channel,filming and editing is quite evident.thanks for sharing and taking us along.
😂 you're kidding right hoss! Hahaha
i was thinking the same thing watching this one. it's unreal how much time and effort it takes... I would have given up long ago if it were me.
When i was a small boy back in the 1960's i had all of the Tonka toy dump trucks and a loader just like the ones in this video. Watching this video today brings back memories and for a second there i felt like i was 4 years old again. When a Video or movie is strong enough and done well enough to alter your mood and spark decades old memories, then you have a good thing going. Thank you Andrew.
Thanks Andrew for spending the time to make these videos. Always fun to watch, Thumbs up !!
You're welcome, glad you enjoy them.
I think we all missed the major change here ... Andrew had to get a new grease barrel finally.
I caught that!! 😅😅
Had since forever, got it at a garage sale
If I remember correctly he said just buy the barrel cause it will last you a lifetime.
the old blue grease barrel has been replaced 2 or 3 years ago
Looks to be a spiffy new fuel truck joining the fleet as well.
Really nice video. Thank you for sharing. The editing and videography is getting so good in these videos. I loved the time lapse shots of the crushing operation interspersed with the repairs and other segments.
Watching these videos always reminds me of the good times when we were building our road through our property, memories with my father and grandfather. Watching you run the excavator with the back hatch open really brought me back because we use to do the exact same thing. Wish it was all recorded like this.
Building roads to your property is life time memories. It's spent 5 years on mine enjoyed every bit of it.

Only Andrew could put up two videos, one 3 hrs+ and the second over an hour and get over 1.6 million views!! love watching this young man work and move dirt!!
Good morning 6:42 am from Germany. Impressive to see how the loader squeezes the car like a soda can! For every day use, these quiet compressors are great. Good for the neighborhood, you don't annoying somebody with the loud noises. The pile of crushed stone seems like nothing in the end cut scene.
Soda can is right just shredded it
Once he pinned it against the cliff wall and reduced as much as could with the wheel loader, he should have switched to the D-8 and finished the job. I bet he could have made it the size of a regular hay bale. 🥸
I think the neighbours will be more upset about the rock crusher and half a dozen huge mining equipment been used rather than a tiny little compressor.
@@sjv6598Hey now... It's the little things that add up...
I bet Andrew's neighbor at the new property absolutely soiled herself when she saw that going up the mountain, i.e. lawyers on speed dial.
I have a right of way through there, I can drive anything I want up.
He will just end up buying hers too lmao 🤣
@AndrewCamarata when I was younger I probably would have made it a point to ride my Harley up and down that right of way every day just out of spite. Props for keeping your level head about it
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@AndrewCamarata I appreciate your response. You and I know that you have the right but neighbors are funny critters sometimes.
You always have the bonus content. Love it! Keeping us all in touch with the simple pleasures fixing, using, breaking...
I thought for sure the pu truck was getting dumped off the forks. Better result with the 988!
Giving that man a brand new chainsaw was priceless, that’s what Thanksgiving is about. Made my week. God bless you Andrew
The videos just keep getting better! Phenomenal story telling, Andrew, and thank you for sharing your life.
Another great video andrew. Love seeing the machines at the stone quarry. The brake lines being damaged on the shovel would annoy the hell out of me. No need for it. An extra 2 mins checking the chains before you tighten them down would stop that. I think u took it well lol
Awesome work Andrew. Great seeing your Dad helping out.
Dan, not Dad.
I accidentally clicked on his posting when he first purchased his property. I was curious as to what he was going to do with it. Likewise, I have introduced many of my friends who have the same type of property. Both have similar types that they own. Josh even bought his own mill to produce lumber that he uses on his ranch. Amazing to see him grow from a young man who is starting out and then see him in his full glory. Well done.
God bless you for being good to the older guy that’s showing up to help you. I’m an older guy and I would sure be happy to help you, but I’d probably be in the way. There’s old and then there’s worn out old. The latter be me 😢. I could go tomorrow with no regrets. Seeing you’ve posted a new video gives me a feeling of “Oh, good!” You’re an ok guy Andrew, keep up the good work.
For that sensor: the next time something like that happens, I suggest having the hydraulic shop make you a hose instead of stacking twenty adapters. Hoses make excellent adapter pieces and will allow you to mount that sensor in a safer spot.
We tried, IDK, I did get a connector that took out like 4 of those adaptors, but I did not install it yet. I ran out of rock to crush too.
@@AndrewCamarata ok, makes sense. I figured you had the same idea.
Andrew... build a steel box around the sensor..protect it from getting hit again...
@AndrewCamarata what exactly were the machines you came across on the way they looked like he was melting the asphalt with the burners but I don't understand what the machine that followed the burners was doing
@@TomGuimond it’s an asphalt reclaiming machine. That truck follows behind and grinds up the blacktop, and lays it back down. Cheap way to redo a road, that same company was just here in my town this past summer. Really neat to watch.
I remember the early days of this property access was poor the struggles your had just to get there massive job. You are never to be under estimated the road is looking great the amount of crushed rock to achieve your goal is mind boggling. Thanks as always for sharing.
Watching the loader crush the truck brought back fond memories of doing the same thing in a scrap yard in Sonoma, CA, way back in the day, 50 years ago. Some things never change! We used to play demolition derby with the ones that still ran, too. Loads of fun!
Tell me why this matters?
Gotta have fun while you can, otherwise a job can get really tedious.
The best heavy equipment channel on KZhead by far. I’ve learned so much from Andrew all the repairs and way he deals with things when they break. If Andrew was my son I’d be extremely proud. Fantastic content.
I rented and Excavator and Skid Steer without ever using one before. Andrew's videos was my experience. I had a blast
@@BMfixitHoping to do the same someday
Can’t wait for your video on expanding your working area in front of your castle
Where does it say he’s doing that?
@@ShOxCooking he posted a story on his instagram a month or so ago where he was pouring concrete in front of that area like he was going to expand it
@@ShOxCookingon your ceiling
@@dumdumdugan1940 thank you
@@TiffanySmith-ed2ljI guess time will tell. Or maybe Andrew will chime in and confirm my statement
Thank you for another Awesome video. Great Drone footage . You are Blessed to have your Dad around & Helping you.. Thank you
Mr. C. was doing some really great work on that skid Steer,he was getting after it!!! This whole family is a bunch of Doers!!!
I’m glad Andrew’s looking after my truck. He always takes good care of all his vehicles.
I think he should build a pickup from the ground up since he thinks one should last forever! Can you imagine what it would look like and ho much it would weigh?!?!? lol
He's a little rusty on the parallel parking, but he did manage to squeeze it in!
at the start of the vlog, that just shows his mental attitude wanting to destroy things.
Been a big fan for years! Just never commented much... Was so happy to see your Dad there!!! He seems to be doing good. Your Dad must be very proud of you...
At first I thought, wow, he paid to have someone bring fuel up the mountain...but it looks like he bought a fuel truck...must have missed that episode. Absolutely great video.
He probably uses as much fuel as they do on Gold Rush. ;-) I was thinking the tanker was a really good idea.
You have taken a good chunk out of the mountain top .Well done guy's and thank you for sharing
Andrew is cranking out these videos 🤯
He spent a lot of money and hopefully we will get more vids while he recovers some $$$$$$
I’ve had time to edit stuff lately, and Been in the mood to do it, it takes my mind off other things. plus I have a lot of videos that are filmed that just needs to be edited
More videos = more $$$$
@@AndrewCamarata much appreciated
@@JA-yg7nc 45%.of the 💰 To G$$GLE. They love Andrew uploading video's ..Like every other You Tuber who uploads a video ..45% goes to G$$GLE ..SHYSTERS
I’m 16 and I love your videos I appreciate you fr man you help me through sometimes, that’s low boy, is similar to my dads, so it’s pretty nice to know I could jump in the truck and run it, but keep your head up and keep up the great content
You too young man
How to young I rather look up to adults and learn stuff that’s I’m interested in learning about, like big rigs stuff like that, just because I’m young doesn’t mean I can’t be here and be a hard working man
Being young is not a problem, years fly by fast.
@@knight_wolf_god8581enjoy being young brother. One day you’ll blink and you’ll realize you’re 40 and half your life has flown by
Why? You got a car 😀😀🇱🇹🇱🇹
“It’s nice when equipment just works”. Truer words have never been spoken!
Gorgeous drone Video All the trees with different colors so gorgeous and great work as usual
Love your stuff Andrew stumbled on you I think 5 or 6 years ago and always liked your attitude to taking care of business regardless of some the "sketchy" stuff you do on occasion's! Think about what a great life your dogs have and Cody.
I love the aerial shots in the beginning and at the end. I also think you enjoy the times you destroy other vehicles. The maintenance and repair of your equipment are also very enjoyable. Keep up the good work!!!! 👍❤️📹😃
To have so much talent and ability with even more humanity - Andrew is that and more!!! Thank You for sharing with us Andrew!
Awesome video again and great to see the progress! Love seeing your dad came up and ran the roller!
The dude you had helping looked like a bloody good operator didn't matter what he was using. Nice touch with the chainsaw too bro
just here to say i appreciate and love these videos as someone who works with machines all day and wants to become an operator these vids are my happy place, cheers andrew
Thank you
@@AndrewCamarata whats up with the deleted B list tank painting video?? LOL
@@warrenmichael918 is that watchable yet? It was still uploading, it’s some ok footage, it doesn’t really tell a real story though that’s why it’s a B video.
@@AndrewCamarata yes, its up now. It was showing deleted earlier.
This is why i love this channel and it's content, first you think how interesting could it be to see a wheel loader getting moved, well Andrew is gonna make it more interesting than you can imagine.
I love watching the time lapses. Cool stuff.
that was awesome AC! liked seeing the digger working so hard - you could see from it's exhaust it's power stroke - good machine. 'AC's vids never fail to deliver.
This is exactly what I needed before going to sleep
Yioooooo frl same for me hhhhh
Literally me 😂
Watching with breakfast 😂
Me to!!
The HF Quiet compressor is pretty cool. I ran one a ton and the cheap circuit breaker started to trip frequently until it would no longer reset (weak spring). I replaced with an inline fuse of appropriate amps and has been great ever since.
Andrew Camarata.. That was a tight squeeze by the road construction. Nice work with the crusher too. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Andrew ,love your work,great to see you and your dad sharing time together thanks for the video,🇦🇺👌👌👌👌Perth Western Australian
Long time fan. Wondering, are you still friends with Jesse Muller? Last thing I saw y'all cooperating on was when you flipped the old telehandler and ended up selling it to him. Glad you are back posting vids. We missed ya
Yes, I want to do a big project with him next year, he said he would help, but I’m not ready yet and he’s been busy building his house.
That's awesome man! You are getting some great shots with that drone! What a pretty area! All of our leaves are turning yellow and red, and some tree's have already shead most of their leaves up here in Utah and it seems like we're ready for snow to fly! Here in Utah Valley @4,500 ft. it's getting pretty cold at nights, it's 38°F tonight, but we have been dipping below freezing some nights while most days are still in the 50's and 60' so it's actually been pretty nice during the days!
Hi Andrew thank you for sharing 😅 Great view of your property from the sky the bird's eye view if you wish
Fantastic to see the fuel tanker coming up to the quarry, instead of saying it can't be done. Talks a lot about your road building skills.
Best delivery that guy has had in years, probably. I know I enjoy it immensely when I get super weird delivery locations.
I think he bought one. You can see it in the background parked under the trees
@@skidmark7845 yes spotted it later, but the road is passable to tankers. Great.
I think Andrew owns the tanker... It will save him bunches of money fueling his equipment..
I really like that telehandler. One of the coolest in your collection.
Great to see you and your pops working together . Its obvious you had an xlnt mentor AND freind . 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Damn that shale is some nice material! It seemed to break up pretty nicely! It's amazing how bug of rocks that crusher is processing!
Nothing like waking up early Saturday morning to a Camarata notification. Best heavy equipment channel on KZhead bar none. Best part he's not trying to sell me no green super juice.
Thank you for the long videos. I really enjoyed the previous one that lasted 3 or more hours. Keep on filming!
Thanks for the last 2 videos, they were great❗️
The frequency of videos is not what we want, but this is justified by the excellent quality of the content and video editing, congratulations. From Brazil.
Awesome job getting all the rock crushed and stockpiled. Very nice of you to get your helper a new chainsaw. The new roller is a great addition to the fleet.
2:30 AM in Brasil and I'm watching Andrew moving things... Must be something wrong with me
Nah, it is a man thing :D
não tem nenhum canal no Brasil como ele. é top
It's 2:56 AM here in Minnesota USA, and I was thinking the same thing. I'm glad I'm not the only one, LoL.
@@williamdunbar8554 😅👊🏼
Bravo Andrew! That was a mega project and super intersting to watch. Your videos are getting better and better!
Keep that crusher filled as much as possible to keep even wear on those jaw dies some you can flip some you can’t. They are very expensive to replace. I worked on a crusher plant for about 8 years and have done many cone and jaw die replacements. Great video makes me want to work on a crusher spread again lol also FYI in the summer cheak the heat on the bearings on the jaw once in a while we have had bearings blow out. We had to install a heat exchanger for them
Great timing! Love seeing new content.
Man has his own rock quarry 😂 awesome video Andrew!
Thx for the video Andrew , it’s greatly appreciated, this is my Saturday morning tv ! 🍺♥️
Thank you Andrew for another fun video to watch and that was a very nice generous thing to buy that worker of yours that chainsaw what a great boss
Your old mate looked like he knew what he was doing on the machines, job well done 👍🍻
Soy Fabian desde Mendoza Argentina 🇦🇷🇦🇷 Me encantan todos los videos de Andrew... Se nota que es una persona muy honesta, sincera y que disfruta con pasión todo lo que hace... Felicitaciones...!!!
Great job at your personal quarry Andrew 0 you *crushed* it! And love the fall colors of the Saugerties, couldn't be better.
Those mountains are so beautiful you are one lucky dude to live there Great job
Can't stop admire this wheel loader what a machine awesome.
Love the shots of the land going from bare to green to multi color trees, something about these scenes is very calming and reminds me that this country is still amazing with its open water and mountains. Makes me want to move before i get too old to enjoy it,
The engine on that CAT sounds fantastic.
Giving the helper guy a new chainsaw at 54:00 kinda hit me in the feels. Classy move AC!
Thank you for including the ride along with the heavy haul truck. Gosh was that truck sweet looking and mean sounding
The CAT in that heavy haul pete was puttin in the work hauling big brother to the mountain.
Growing up as a kid, i had these 2 Tonka toys that i loved they were metal and very big and heavy, one was a green and white cement truck with all working parts and a yellow wheel loader very similar to the one that you bought. Watching you with these big boy toys bring back some good memories in the backyard digging dirt and mixing mud! Always look forward to when you post. Great entertainment as always Andrew 👍
No kpo NJ no no u mn
You kick ass, Andrew, so fun watching you and your dad!
Totally impressed with how you move the large rock and don't use a thumb.
Thanks for posting the video Andrew. Gotta love that note from a 3408.. Go pro got lucky there once on the skid steer bucket while loading the truck.😬
Nothing beats the wicked sound of a big V8 Cat. Especially at start-up. Unmistakable sound.
Andrew, “this isn’t by any means going to be fixed, but try and start it!” Fires right up! Andrew and the golden touch!
I love this great opening video scene of the forested Mountains, it’s beautiful! I can only say I love you headquarters, home that you have carved out for yourself upon this I beautiful, rugged Mountain top. I am sure you are, as you should be very proud of your accomplishments there. Way to go, Andrew!
Those husky 562s are amazing saws. Been running one for the past three years doing tree work and hasn’t skipped a beat. Tons of power too
Yeah, I wanted to try that, I have a 550 a 357 and a 572.
@@AndrewCamarata the 372 or 395 are seriously fun. I run a 395 with the 36” bar and it just eats through hardwood
Do you need that big of a bar? I always felt 20" was like perfect, can usually cut any tree. I had a 24" on my 357 for a while and found the extra length was not necessary.
@@AndrewCamarata the 20 is great for most trees out here besides the big cottonwoods. It’s really nice to have the long bar when you’re putting a face cut in a tree that’s 4-6 feet in diameter. If i wasn’t an arborist i would just stick with a 20
@@AndrewCamarataI've got a 24 I can throw on my 572 but it's usually overkill here in NH. Unless it's a real old tree and it's felling the stump log, then a bit of reach is nice. Normally the 555 with the 20 inch is perfect for general work.
I love that Andrew has his own gas truck.
Man ! We all wish we had you as a “Friend” , My 5 Year plan could be done in a month !!! God Bless You & The Fury friends ! Enjoy your thanks giving ! Just East of you in Southern Vermont . 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Well done, Andrew. You're doing a brilliant job.
That is very efficient vehicle crushing. Also this thanksgiving I’m very thankful for Andrew making such great content. Thanks!
It's Saturday morning in Phoenix, it's raining. Mug of coffee in hand. Dog sitting with me on the couch watching Andrew crush and moving rocks. Life is good.
Amazing video!!! Thanks for posting. Good combination of camera angles and elevations along with a good mixture of content.
Nice of the people to help out ,thanks for the video love the longer ones.
Glad we got to see the finish of the crushing and spreading it really was quite fascinating to watch the progress and great drone footage, your helper seemed to have extensive experience on the equipment, I did miss seeing the Dirt Boss up on the mountain again though.
It's great to see more videos out, buddy. love the work you do, and the chainsaw was a nice thing to do ❤
I'd have to say, this rock blast/crush and road build project was my favorite!👍
17:47 Using the chain end to hammer the stuck binder pawl - that's some next level ingenuity right there. This type of stuff is why Andrew is so entertaining to watch.
Great job, Andrew! I thought it was cool when your Dad came out to roll! Then as he drove down the hill, I worried about him. lol I wish I could call the rental place and tell them "I'm just gonna keep the machine" That's Awesome!
Andrew went all “Whistling Diesel” in THIS episode.
💯 pure talent. I watch em all. I like Andrew’s videos so much that I want to come help.
I like your videos, Andrew I’ve been watching you for years. I like it best when you’re fixing stuff or performing service on an engine. My dad is a mechanic
