After coming to the realization that a brand new mini excavator was not anywhere near my budget, I"ve taken a chance on today's episode and bought the cheapest mini excavator I could find. Sometimes these low cost pieces of heavy equipment end up costing me more than a newer machine would in repairs but I'm willing to take that chance. This mid-90's Takeuchi TB15 is the newest piece of heavy equipment which will call the SWS landscape home. I'm hoping to use this mini excavator to help maintain my trails and get to places where my tractor just can't. Low ground pressure and relatively small footprint will make this an excellent trail-building tool for me and one that I"ve been after for quite some time. Now it's a matter of learning how to use the thing. I'm no expert on mini excavators but I do have a basic understanding of hydraulics and general repair and so I"m optimistic here and hoping for the best. Glad you're all along with me for the ride. Here we go!
