I am amazed that you did that with a 2210. Who said that FEL was too small ??? lol. Looks good now you just need to get that PH digger goin to put some trees around it and in no time you'll be in your own back yard paradise /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Dave

Steve, I am not trying to be funny but if you end up making a nice looking pond with that tractor, I am really going to be not only impressed, I'll be INSPIRED.

Might need to adjust the runoff tile a little lower!

Steve, I'm impressed... Looks like you are putting in a good effort and it's paying off. I do have a question... What is your soil like? I have all hardpan here and while I may have a bit larger tractor, it looks to me like your soil may be a bit more agreeable to your efforts.

Thanks EagleEye.
My dirt is mostly clay. It had not rained in over a month so it would crumble decent. I would use the BB with the scarifers all the way down and box tilted forward to be able to get a load. When I first started that would take way to much bite and stop my tractor. But, after the first six inches or so it was a lot tougher. Without the scarifers down it would hardly get any dirt loose at all.
We got over 5 inches of rain from Saturday to Monday. Sure did fill it up!
