Hey Pappy. If I waited 'till July the clay MIGHT dry out by then... It rains a bit here. Once we got the stump laying on its side, out of the hole, the hoe made quick work of the mud ball. Must have been half a ton stuck on there.
When we dug our new well, the excavator left huge "loaves" of clay in a heap. Six rainy months later, the clay still held the perfect shape of the bucket. Pretty sticky stuff! Makes a fine road bed though, once it dries out.
I like your home made shovel James. It seems that once you buy a tractor... Your next purchase should be a decent welder. I'm looking for a used one now.
I could not agree more. Here is my little Everlast PA160 DC stick welder. I use it for stick welding, and I added a TIG torch, and a cheap regulator off of Ebay and got a bottle of argon locally, and I was all set to learn scratch start TIG. I have made a lot of things with this little welder, and it has been worth every penny. I only paid $269 for the welder.
