Here are some pics of the project I've been working on. I'm working on fencing my cattle completely out of the creeks, so I'm having to install culverts and watering tanks to compensate. The waterers are basically redesigned septic tanks with no lid. The local septic tank place delivered them Monday. I did have to hire a backhoe to dig the trenches for the water lines, but I've done the rest of the work, mainly moving dirt, spreading gravel, and laying water pipe. My MF 243 has been invaluable during this project, I even used it to pull out the septic tank truck after he got stuck in the mud (thank goodness for 4wd). I'm especially impressed with the 6' Rhino box blade. I'm inventing new uses for it almost daily. When all this is done I'll move to phase two, which is putting up all the new fencing.
This first pic is the culvert I had to put in. As you can see I've used filter cloth under the first load of crush 'n run gravel.
