538 Neil Koch Dig Drive DIY

Neil Kof from Harlan, Indiana.

Dig, drive, DIY.

So, OK, so someone that has not seen your YouTube, describe it for us.

Sure.

Well, first of all, thanks so much for having me on.

I really appreciate it.

But I started the YouTube channel a long time ago, then got serious with it in 2020, started making videos on purpose.

I had uploaded some family things and that stuff like that, that everyone does at first.

But I saw some traction with it on one of my earlier videos by accident.

It was my friend loading his bulldozer onto a truck.

He hauls it around on a Tana Maxell Sterling straight truck, and he loads it off to the side.

So

I just happened to record him at a job site I was helping him with.

He drives up onto the trailer, and then he twists the bulldozer sideways and then parks it.

That video took off and went viral, so to speak, back in 2019, I believe it was.

And from that, I thought, well, maybe there's an interest.

I've always had a desire to do this type of thing with videos and be creative.

So I started making videos of just my projects around the house at first and splitting firewood, running my little small garden tractors.

I've got some John Deere garden tractors and a compact tractor.

And so one thing led to another.

My projects just kept getting bigger and more involved in the filming and editing, kept getting more involved.

And before I knew it, I was making a video for every Sunday, just around the house projects.

I call it Dig Drive DIY because that kind of encompasses the three things I like to do.

Small digging projects.

Well, some have gotten actually pretty big.
