[Lil Giants]

The other Joe told me he towed his riding lawnmower through the grass with the D9, the winch had originally plastic gears & they stripped, so he changed them to metal gears & now the dozer utilizes all its power... we'll see what happens Tom.

As moist as this clay is atm RW, I sink that 4" ripper tooth in 3 passes, it's pretty sweet digging... I hope I can maintain a steady enough dig travel that the dirt never gets as dry & hard as what I endeavored with the basement dig... probably use limited heat in this room during winter, enough to keep from freezing my fingers, just to avoid excessive evaporation.

Dug down another 6" this morning, still no bottom. The JD850 might be able to dig another 3" down from it's perch before it's out of reach.
