Just had a few hundred feet of trench dug. It included the length of the driveway. I'm putting in new water lines and underground power. Sand bedded water and 3, 2 & 1" conduit and backfilled with the 2660. All good. Then...finish grade time. What a riot! I have the FEL and the 48" box scrapper. The first little while was pretty frustrating. The analogy I'd use, it is like trying to flatten a conference table with a block plane. You may be able to do it, but holy smokes there is a reason that graders have those really long wheel bases, just like jointer planes have the really long body. I was finally able to pick a reasonable flat spot and work out from there. The driveway is fine now, but it wasn't pretty to watch
