16ft. Only took it about a mile to get off site and then split the load down and moved the machines individually. Although it was heavy it towed well. The access there is very tight and the site is very tight. I have to drop the trailer off to turn it round all very time consuming

The green length of metal is my laser receiver bracket.  For me it works very well.  However do not think that you can dig to it as it is far to accurate/twitchy.  For example when digging footings.  Dig as per usual feeling your way but just before you track back have a quick dab to the bottom of the trench, thus preventing accumulative errors.  I find having the bucket flat the most accurate, it is possible to take a very shallow scrape at this point if necessary.  Obviously the dipper arm has to be vertical and it is surprisingly easy to achieve this.  I apply the same principle when leveling stone or top soil.  I would love to justify the expense of a DGPS or Gyro system produced by TopCon, Trimble or iDig.  We can all dream!!
