I have a bunch of tiny springs coming out of my mountains. I want to install a french drain system. There is an abundant amount of trenchers on the marker. Any that are really good or ones I should avoid?
I've got a Bobcat trencher I bought mid-2000's that's probably trenched a couple of miles over it's lifetime. It's been used but sporadically over the last 15 years.
Last year we replaced the teeth for the first time - not Bobcat brand as they wanted a fortune, found them online for a 1/3 of the price Bobcat wanted.
Do you happen to know where you got the cutter teeth at? I have a Bobcat 313 trencher for my skid that's needing a sprocket and chain and the Bobcat dealer is far from helpful and $$$.
Believe it or not...Amazon.
I just matched the bolt pattern of the tooth and the number of teeth. They've done great for the price.
What type of equipment do you have currently available for use? We do a lot of drainage systems. As someone already mentioned lots of rock up our way. An excavator with a trenching bucket does really well with all types of drainage.I have a bunch of tiny springs coming out of my mountains. I want to install a french drain system.
