We just might be able to get a KD range between Waco and Austin.

Needs work though. To get a good berm we can dig into the side of a hill with about a 10 to 15% grade. Make less work that way.

We figure a backhoe would work best. Now a bunch of people, including me, can stumble around with one. But it would take about 5 times longer than somebody that knows what they are doing. Working a backhoe is an artform. If you've ever tried to run one you know what I mean.

Any volunteers?

Also - anybody have a connection to get a backhole for a few days on the cheap?

I'm decent at running a excavator but never ran a backhoe before. Happy to help if y'all want or can't find someone with more experience lol. No leads on one though
