Thank you .
Well, finally there was a deep dig task... We installed some large diameter drainage pipes. Depth of the pit was 4 meters

Thanks butbdon't worry. There were no people in the pit when the pipes went in. They are only removing the cables. We have alot of gravel in our soil so I did not permit them to go inside longer than necessary and that was a few minutes. I was more worried about the cables because those pipes are metal net and thick concrete and are very heavy

The big danger would have been when disconnecting cables on the lower one. That is pretty deep. A slough off could easily kill someone. You can't just scoop the dirt off of someone in a situation Ike that and there are only minutes to deal with.

Hello

Great contribution to the forum.
Is it possible to buy from you diy-hoe?
I mean prefabricated metal parts and hydraulics needed.
Customer will do welding and assembly work.

Just an idea....

 

[BFreaky]

Well I like the idea but this is a prototype, the first of a kind...so at this point I cant answer that question because its a "yes" and a "no"... it would be better to buy a finished assembled product because of its complexity

you could sell the plan, you probably have CAD files already since most of your parts are CNC cut.
