Over the years I've found a backhoe can be much more useful for things other than just digging holes.

I have been doing some renovations for a while and needed a rolloff for the stuff that needed to go away during the reno.

The company I rented the rolloff from says I can't put 'appliances' in it and I had a 20 year old kitchen stove that needed to go away. I took care of the stove the same way I took care of a microwave last year, when I was doing some other demo stuff.

What I started with was a 20 year old kitchen stove.

After a little time with the bh, I have something no one could ever call an appliance. Yes, it's all in the picture, nothing has been removed. I grabbed it with the bucket and the thumb, squeezed, crushed and shook it like a dog would shake a rabbit it had caught. It's surprising how little there was left after a few minutes of 'work'.

Most fun I've had for a while.

I wish I had a video of my stepson taking care of my neighbors boat with our excavator. He had fun.

I'll keep the thought tucked away. I think I'll be using mine to demo a deck soon.

Around here you'd put it on the curb and it would be gone in the morning. Not as fun, though.

I did that once... Completely by accident. Wife was pretty pissed
