I'm trying to avoid spending $6000 on a backhoe attachment when I buy my tractor. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can use instead?
I have some slight drainage problems in my front yard (about 1.5acre with lots of trees). I'm wanting to dig a few small, shallow, wide ditches about 150' long to my main ditch in front of my property. Wait a minute...small and wide? Sorry for the contradiction. What I mean is ditches that will eventually grow grass an be mowed like it was part of the yard. I don't know the technical term for that kind of ditch.
Friend of mine at work told me something about a kind of box blade/scoop type thing that digs a real wide ditch. Anybody know what this is called? Or would a FEL work?
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks. Jeff
