It is about 60 centimeters deep. The spade was less useful than the small pickaxe-thingy, which I used to loosen the ground. I intend to plant a tree in the hole. That is all.
Actually dull content (and satisfyingly so) 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Agreed. Top comment nominee.
I should call her.
Dang man, at least tag nsfw if you’re going to be sharing pics of your hole
Nice hole Man. Pretty round. Before you plant under cut sone of the hole so the roots have some more loose soil.
Woah there buddy, do you have the right permits for an excavation like that?
: wanders over to stand next to the hole, beer in hand:
Ayup. Think in this county you need to file permission with the council for any hole over 30 cm deep.
: sips beer as an eldritch tentacle starts to crawl out of hole:
Good hole.
Quality hole. Dirt is definitely gone. Goes straight down into the ground. All signs of top quality. Good job.
Call 811 before you dig!
EDIT: Remembered the wrong number.
Me too!
However mine is unfinished :(
Yep, that’s a hole. Definitely got that doggy’s seal of approval, too. What’s it going to be when it’s finished?
An adult dog.
Going to pave the area, lots of prep to do first. Compacting and leveling and probably a domestic or three in between.
We have 3 pallets of bricks that have been in the way for too long.
Yeah, prep is everything when you’re laying pavers. Lots of layers and steps to do it right. But the plan sounds fantastic, turning it into something nice to look at that you can actually use. Good luck, hope it’s everything you are envisioning.
Actually I think that’s a Squole
It’s a hole new world.
I’ve got a hole lotta love for it
First make it a bean hole and cook some chili in it
It was made for me! This is my hole!
Terrifying shit. Just the comment freaked me out.
Drrrrr drrr
i once dug a hole in my (parent’s) back yard to search for water.
well i didn’t find water but i found a girlfriend. (no joke)
dang that sounds so unhinged once i type it out loud.
here's the explanation
Well the back yard wasn’t really fenced in and neighbors could easily walk in and through as a shortcut to the bus stop, and in fact they did all the time. Anyways i dug the hole and a girl from the neighborhood saw me do that and came to walk by and ask me what the hell i was doing there. i was telling her that i was digging for water, and well, the rest is a secret.
“Well I don’t have any water, but you’ve found wetness”
Spades are not meant for digging, they’re for edging and moving stuff. A shovel has a pointier head, which cuts into compacted soil easier. It’s the kind that actually looks like a spade, but for some reason isn’t. You can stick it in the ground, and push it down with your foot.
