Hi Guys, I'm brand new to the forum, and am I ever glad that it exists! I've just read through a few posts, and am realizing just how valuable all of you are. I know I'll be asking a lot of questions at the start, but I'm hoping I can share my experience here as time goes on, and help others! I'm looking at digging a pond of about 3/4 of an acre. I've read through this post, and realize that my pond is bigger than the 40 X 40 pond mentioned in this thread. Would a pond of 1/2 - 3/4 acre still be feasible to dig with a mini excavator and a 5 yard dump truck? I'm planning on using the excavated material to build up the sides of the pond. I want the center of the pond to be 12 feet deep, but have it gradually slope up, in sort of a "soup bowl" fashion. I'm also planning on building a house, and a driveway, and trenching in power, so I'm wondering if a mini excavator would be the right toy for the job. All input is TOTALLY appreciated. Cheers, J
