Have a few acres and always digging something by hand which is fine but a back injury continually limits how much i can do.

Always fancied a mini digger , but never really got the chance to use one. OK so i could have hired one… but a 1.6T TB016 that my work used to hire came up for sale at a bit of a bargain so i took the plunge and bought it.

Bit of a leap of faith as i had never actually dug with one but within half an hour picked up the basics… infact my 15 year old boy picked it up even faster and i can see the couple of acres at the back of the house quickly becoming a jump park. My 11 year old daughter even seems a natural at operating it.

you dont even need to reach the pedals 😉

I am jealous.

Wish I could justify buying some earth moving machinery.

Make sure you post a PSA when you’re on You’ve Been Framed 🙂

Even out cats can drive one:

I couldn’t really justify it myself but bought it anyway! 🙂

My daughter bustin some moves on a hired JCB 6 tonner, couldn’t justify buying one.

Few years ago I had a call from a customer who we’d just serviced and posted a shock back to, TNT (who we don’t use now I might add) had delivered his shock, however he was called into the car park by a colegee asking what he wanted to do with the mini digger the driver had left along with the shock.
😀

Nice size digger that twinw4ll

Well 6 months down the line as predicted, now mini practice circuit at the back of the house. 3 jumps, 4 berms and timber starting platform.

You are Dan Atherton and I claim my £5

That’s awesome.

He can’t be Dan Atherton, those jumps don’t terrify me!

My jealousy meter just exploded

Have you taken the 106 down it yet?

Can highly recommend getting drunk then extending the bucket right out, standing in it then getting another drunk person to spin it round. Great fun and surprisingly we didnt get hurt!

Think that’s green………… look at the grass on the other side of the fence! 😉 ………….Orkney actually.

I’m envious, not ‘prepared to live in Orkney’ envious, nearly, but not quite. Give me a few more years of this traffic and I may change my mind
