JoeG, Great advice, thanks so much. Yes the carrier has out riggers, but I didn't realize there should be more support under the pads. With your advice I am going to construct something. Iv'e thought myself about what you said about the dug soil piled up and getting in the way of future digging, and I have been contiplating on getting a dump truck now I think it is a must have Item. I have plenty of room on the property for the spoils, and in the end I would like to creat a birm around one side of the pond (neighbors and road).
Thanks again for the advice and I will take the safety issues to heart.
