New trenching tool

[Named'em Tamed'em]

Needed to dig some trenches, and the skid steer forks worked great. It took 25 minutes to dig this 100 ft stretch. Forward or backwards just as fast .

What's all the brown stuff? Surely that isn;t dirt! Doesn;t look anythign like the stuff here does. First of all the color, second the density, third no rocks the size of wash tubs to volkswagons.

Glad it worked it out for you. As dun said try that around here .

Now I'd like to bytch a little. I know your on your place and you know we're it is. But . But does anyone try to bury water lines in a straight line? Its not that much harder. I know it doesn't seem to matter, till some poor ol fence builder has to try to figure out were it is and dodge it.

Thanks for the tip, that will help me bury some underground fence wire at gates.

Fence~ The old timers around here will tell you to never bury a water line in a straight ditch. Always make it snake-like so it will not break from stress when the ground shifts.

As far as excuses go that's a pretty good one.
I guess it's must apply to phone and electric lines to.
I've noticed new mains and such they've been putting in are straight as arrow..

Must be some reason electric and phone lines have a little slack in them. Laying water line is not my biz, but that's only what I've heard.

We have great soil around here.
