My brief sworay in to the life of an excavator operator consists of using these 2 monsters - hired in on a self-drive basis back in the early 90s at different times to do a few jobs on the farm - clean out a stream, dig in a few gate posts & bury the odd dead sheep.
Perhaps one day Ill aspire to something even bigger!
