Thx for the offer anyway!. I think of "turns" because where I want to bury a line I have to pass by many trees, can't do straight lines.

Nah. I'm joking with Woodlandfarms. We both have Power Tracs (though different models). All implements are mounted to the FEL arms in front and any that require power are powered by hydraulics. If you ever get the chance to operate a hydraulically articulated machine with front mounted attachments, you'll see the advantage for a lot of chores. Plus the ability to change attachments in 15 seconds without having to leave the seat (30 seconds and two hoses for powered equipment) is priceless.

To this thread, I keep my eyes open for a chance to get a trencher that has broken down. I use my stump grinder to trench and while it works, it tends to leave me with no dirt to fill back in.

unless one has creeper gearing in the tractor will not work very well you will over whelm the trencher,
I have a add on trencher made by auburn trenchers, they sold a transmission that one would split the tractor and add, (I did not have the tractor it come off of thus not a very good set up, made them for jeeps as well,
I did set up a creeper drive with some extra wheels but I can not get enough traction to move both the trencher and the tractor at times,
video of a old a Auburn trencher on a ford 2000, looks like hard rocky ground,
