    hello lads an ladies,

    I have to dig a trench 2 foot deep around 30 metres in order to drain a spot on my site. I will lay some drainage pipe which can exit at a passing stream. Thing is, the neighbour can do it but has only a 2 foot bucket on the digger. Would this be too wide or would it work? What should I fill in in with afterwards?

    Thanks a lot,

    It will work but you will use an aweful lot of stone to fill the drain.
