    I’ve dug quite a few of these with my E20 which is a very capable machine. Every once in awhile I wish I had an E32 to speed up the process a little. Think I’m gonna pull the trigger on a used one this year to fortify the arsenal. Great work!

      I agree, the e20 is more than capable. Just a little slow at times. Thanks for watching and good luck. 👍

    Getting ready to dig for a 24x36 shop this weekend with 16" deep footings. I have the exact 2 machines coming. Just curious how long this took you. Loved the video!

      It took me about 3 1/2 days, but I had to move the material a long way, and I ran into some rock

    Fabulous! Working that little E20 and showing what it can do. I have yet to tackle any big projects with mine. Is that a 24" bucket? I have an 18" only and it is a tooth bucket. I wasn't sure if these machines could dig much with the larger buckets and still looking to get a 12" and a 32.

      Yes, that is my 24” dirt bucket. I could still have used my smooth 32” through. It will still pull it through the dirt and maneuver just fine. I just like using one with teeth when moving this much dirt, because there’s more wear you get out of the bucket with teeth.

      @@triplesticks Makes sense. I never thought about the wear issue. I have owned two BobCat skid loaders (currently a mint condition 753) and the E20 and all have had tooth buckets so I have not experienced or heard about the wear factor.
      Amazing that E20 can pull a 32 through the dirt! Can't wait to get that size. More important for me right now is a good trenching bucket. I need to bury my downspouts and do some French drains around the house and my pole barn/ garages. Water management is the story of my life here in the mountains of Central PA.
