This is a failed wheat field, about 10 acres,it's slumped down tight so running pig-tails thought it so it can dry and get some air back in it , supposed to rain again later on today 😕 hopefully rain will go through it and on ridges it hopefully will dry quicker

I have been brought in halfway through this project. Digging a shallow natural pond in pure sand . Imported clay layered then paddled with the remote control (serious fun) newson Whacker. Creating a deep ish part. A natural shallow shelf then a sloping beach. It’s been a number of years since I last did a full day on a digger. It soon comes back. The smaller the machine the more the rocking over rough moves makes you wince!
hyundai aren’t the best compared to hitachi and Volvo that I’ve driven before. Newson remote I can only compare to the only other remote control vehicle I have driven, a Tamia RC car I drove a pout 35 years ago.

Had digger man in last week but I didn’t have any pipe the right size so left it for hand dig.

Very old 6 inch clay tiles that didn’t want to come out in one piece. Just breaking up resulting in a lot of extra digging to make sure bottom half was all gotten out. Of 33 metres I think I got 3 tiles that came out in one piece.

Somebody else, probably long gone obviously didn’t have any correct sized pipe either so made do with a length of 8” sewer pipe with 4” tiles within it:ROFLMAO:

John deere owners will recognize.
Slight drippy drip from the backend filter, hardened o rings seemed to be the problem. Good thing it dripped, the clip holding the hose in was past it best, bottom one is the suction side, top one is the pressure side.
Cheap and easy to do but if the clip breaks and the hose pops out you are kind of boned as you empty the backend right quick fast in a hurry. Stupid design.
