    Digging footings for a greenhouse columns

    I'm going to be building a greenhouse that requires (26) 18"w X 48"d footings. The soil is clayish with some rocks. I thought of hiring this part out to a contractor. Sure I got a backhoe but that would disturb too much ground. Any suggestions? Thanks CM

    Another broken tooth

    Is it just me or what? I've managed to break two teeth off of my backhoe bucket digging out a stump. I'll admit it , the first time I was losing daylight and I couldn't see that I probably had one outer tooth on a thick douglas fir root and I reefed too hard and it broke off. No problem, I...
