Caterpillar D-1
Sorry, old construction joke.
There are several rental small backhoe style units that have a bucket
of a cubic foot or so. They are fun to run. Be sure you call your
local 800 "Call Before You Dig" number. You would be surprised at
how many lines and pipes run through backyard america. You do not want
to have tp pay to replace everyone's cable service.


Well, you know, I'd have to doubt that you could be forced to pay for
replacing everybody else's cable service if they've got lines running
through your land without an express right of way.

Electrical and gas lines are the real problem - if you cut one of those,
how much it's going to cost can be _literally_ the last thing on your
mind.
