It's a real work video, you watch them cut into a hillside, use a laser level to establish grade, manage spoil dirt, and deal with tree removal decisions. The TYM 2515 is present as a loaner for review but the focus stays on the project, not the tractor. Best for viewers curious about small-tractor site prep work or following this cabin series.
An owner-operator homestead channel where Tony and Tanja document real projects on their own property; TYM sent the 2515 for a review, so there's a mild manufacturer relationship worth noting.
They used a self-leveling laser level mounted on a stand to find a reference point, since the eye alone could not judge grade on the hillside, then dug while checking periodically against it.
They stayed within about two to three inches of level throughout the dig, checking periodically, then planned to run a land plane afterward for final smooth grading.
They cut the trees down and put dirt over the stump area rather than removing the stump itself, since dirt was already piled up to the base of the trees.
