    Yeah it was awesome, I had it for 50 hours but managed to get everything done I had planed in about 30 hours. So I started getting into trouble with it creating more work… but it was well worth it.

    Well not an excavator but I ran across this little tractor and thought I might could move a few bits around with it! So I’m set for a bit, maybe find some forks that will work on it.
