yea but very rough , when we poured it had to be 1 of the hottest days
the load came hot to begin with coupled with dry hot stones at 2 " rat slab it was all my dad and I could do to get it raked out . the ledge in the pic is half the base for the fireplace + a cap on the buttress wall. the ground here is tight close to your clays but put sand stone rocks in it . in the dry spell , it takes some time to scratch through with the 307 cat excavator I had . We hit ledge in the north east corner (straight back under the pumbing ) I'm just not sure I want to knowing whats under there . It'll sure be some model engineering fun

I'm gonna have to build low pro mining equipment for my crawl space. At best, 18" is all I have at the high end. It would be a great project though. How heavy is the loader IHBuilder?

OK official weight 46.6 lbs without the cab finished . I guessed about 40-50 lbs awhile back
not to far off ( I think I pulled somethin ![]() ) I used to throw 50 lb seed, fertilizer, and lime bags up on a hydro seeder for years so I guess I got a feel for it I decided to go through with the basement dig can't think of any logical place to store my coal unless I start another building I can just see the township beside , I got some new machines coming on line this year I need a good proving ground .

The culprit p---- poor tolerances in the valve heads . The leaking was coming from a 6mm ID oring on a 5.8mm OD shaft So Made new 1's out of brass . 3-4 hours setup and tweaking and 1hr run time tops between the lathe and mill . ![]() ![]() old ![]() new ![]() thanks for lookin
