Tim that sounds both useful and lots of fun, but given that this site is (inter)national, it'd probably be helpful to all if you were to indicate, either in your post your 'profile' whereabouts you (and it ) might be located...

You lucky sod. I'm exceptionally jealous (and, unfortunately, rather a long way away ).

I have one of those PowerFab micro diggers. Will go through a standard door. Not as versatile as a tracked digger but bloody handy as it can be towed behind a car on its own wheels.


Just been lloking for a pic & found out its not a PowerFab at all its a Mantis towable digger

Yeh mine can go through a gap 810mm (81cm or 31.9 inch) wide.

I even tow it about with the quad bike. Current job is digging a ditch to put a large drainage pipe under a new gateway. Then It will be used to clear out all the ditches in the woods.
