Also, don't just think about your fence gate think about where you would store said tractor. The Case seems pretty easy to store. The 950 would be a whole new world of storage and repair needs.

Wasn't your goal to get rid of all of that grass? Or am I missing something? Can they pull a heavy duty roller or something to even all of that out?

to the right of the trees is where we are mulching, around the pond will stay grass, it will be all right though, we'll just grade it out and re seed it, jut need to keep the chickens and ducks out of the seed

well, his skid steer got repaired which is making this go much faster, that thing flies, we started digging the trenches
took that out to the back fence and then started coming around the back side of the gazebo
and started the second trench
and a third one along the fence across the old beds
and tied the three together behind the gazebo
the pug had to inspect to make sure we were osha compliant
had to dig out to connect the two trenches under the fence
and laid down the drainage tubes
and started burying the pipe with crushed stone
the long ditch is done
he just went to pick up another load of stone, hope to have it all covered up and smoothed out ready for mulch tonight, will report back

So once we got a ditch done with pipe and stone, we started covering them up
and then graded it out, that thing flies, it only took like 10 minutes
we then started on the side ditches
all we had left to do was where the runs butted together, you can see how much water was flowing, he was shocked, said he had never seen that before when installing drainage lines
A quick skim grade
and we are ready for phase two on Sunday, hauling chips

So today we start moving stuff, couldn't really do much yesterday, but finally got the pipe fixed on the case, the hose we had made wouldn't work, so my neighbor brazed it
first we had to grind it down, you can see the hairline crack at the top
it's ugly
but it works
so my BIL and his worker were over, the worker was bored and asked if there was anything I wanted done, sure, let's expand the driveway to the barn, so we did
I also had him dig out drainage along the sides to keep the water from pooling in front of the barn
much better and will be much easier to get the trailer back there now
he then asked whats next, well, keep going back and clearing a path along the right of the barn back to the woods, so he did
we have a stand of dead trees that I have been wary to cut down, well he took those out easy enough
