The wife’s carrot harvest this year, this should last a few months. Who says you can’t grow stuff anywhere.

Needed a way to put down all these miles of cabling going every which way for the cameras. Kept the old backhoe bucket bracket on the last bucket I worn out. I can now adjust depth while driving and trenching with my backhoe. In places I can’t fit the backhoe between trees or sudden elevation change I can park the backhoe and reach to trench a particular area. Built with scrap.

You are very very resourceful and talented. If I was 30 years younger.... and you weren't married... we'd make one he// of a team....:hide:hide:hide:hide:clap:clap:clap:lol::lol::lol::lol::gig:gig:gig:gig:gig:gig

My dad had a Bucyrus Erie dragline that he did lake dredging with. He was very talented with it... But your mechanical, "innovations and inventions", are very impressive...

Still need to weld a pipe on the backside of it with a lip like you would see on a pan with a way to hold a spool of whatever. So as I'm trenching, it's laying the cable in the trench at the same time.
Here is a bigger version than mine.

Thank you for your service to this country. I am sorry that there are so many that do not appreciate it. Please believe that there are many of us that may be quiet, but we do appreciate it.

X2 on getting the carrots out in one piece mostly... they are really nice carrots... especially since you seem to have very rocky soil there.
