I rented the bobcat so it would get done faster. the kioti is very capable of doing the job and more, but i was running out of time to get things done. cost me $360 to rent the bobcat for 2 days. plus the fuel for both. maybe another $150 for the fuel. I think I saved quite a bit. would have been $1500 or so to dig if someone else did it. And they may not have done it the way I wanted. I have a few issues with the basement floor that they screwed up but will have to live with it. and I payed good money for it to get done and they still screw it up. heck I could have done it for a lot less and it would have been just as good if not better and I don't do concrete for a living. I didn't want to take the time to do it and figured someone that does it all the time could do a better job. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gifguess that is what I get for figureing. I just hate hiring work done when I can do it myself. just takes a bit more time.
O well it is done. I about have the decking on and dad just finished with the stairs. should be able to start on the walls later today or in the morning. mark
