[QUOTE="Colin, post: 457140, member: 1419"] Thanks for that, I will maybe give them a call, even a trencher would be better than a bucket, then it could be done in crop in dry(er) conditions and we could afford to use more gravel and put in closer runs, only problem with all these machines would be if they hit big stones! The worry would be if there were old drains but if plenty gravel was used then I can't see it being a problem. I have one particular area that isn't under drained as it is very sandy, however it floods every year and it is a bowl so the water sits ther and kills the crop even when the river goes down, but it is a very fla run and I don't think the excavator could keep it to the right grade.
