Reply:Originally Posted by cc51They roughed out the ditch with a standard 3' bucket, Then trimmed it with the V bucket.    6' wide, 3' deep, 2700 linear feet is a lot of yardage to trim!
Reply:what did you use for teeth?  i normaly use almost used up auger teeth with the brazed carbides for temp jobs like this. and it looks like the orig bucket needs teeth. did you make it to CON/AG this year. the pengo booth is always fun

Reply:I really Like This, Necessaty Is The mother of invention.  Its something that should have been recagnized along time ago.  Its a simple idea, that makes the world of a difference when clearing trenches.  It looks really good.Some Blue , Some Red & Some GreyProverbs 16:2-3.2 "All a person’s ways seem pure to them, but motives are weighed by the Lord. 3 Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans."
Reply:The tolerance on this was +- 1 inch, not much wiggle room. The concrete had to be min. of 3" thick as finished. Attached ImagesI hate rude behavior in a man.......Won't tolerate it!                   Woodrow F. Call

Reply:I like the used blade for teeth idea. They sure look wider than 1" though. Nice job!
