    Wedge — an unsharpened blade for digging, breaking and prying. A San Angelo bar has a wedge at one end. Chisel — a sharpened blade for cutting roots, digging and prying. A pinch point bar has a chisel at one end. Bars are typically 5 to 6 ft (1.5 to 1.8 m) long and weigh 15 to 23 lb (6.8 to 10.4 kg).

  3. Hobby tunneling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobby_tunneling

    In 1965, he took over another bar, but kept his digging as a hobby. Altmann would mainly use a pickaxe for digging and occasionally explosives, after passing an explosives handling examination at the fire department. [7] He dug a second tunnel branching off from the first one, using a tunnel drilling machine he designed and built himself. [7]

  4. Trench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trench

    An alternative to digging trenches is to create a utility tunnel. Such a tunnel may be dug by boring or by using a trench for cut-and-cover construction. The advantages of utility tunnels are the reduction of maintenance manholes, one-time relocation, and less excavation and repair, compared with separate cable ducts for each service.

  5. Bucket-wheel excavator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucket-wheel_excavator

    Note the 40-ton CAT wheeled dozer at lower left for size comparison. A bucket-wheel excavator (BWE) is a large heavy equipment machine used in surface mining. Their primary function is that of a continuous digging machine in large-scale open-pit mining operations, removing thousands of tons of overburden a day.

  6. Digging stick - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digging_stick

    A larger and heavier digging stick with a diameter of about 4 cm (1.6 in) and 2 m (6 ft 7 in) in length, used for the purpose of turning over the soil surface for new gardens; and A smaller and lighter digging stick with a diameter of about 2 cm (0.79 in) and 1 m (3 ft 3 in) (or less) in length, mainly used for basic horticulture tasks.

  7. Hoe (tool) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoe_(tool)

    The ridging hoe, also known as the Warren hoe [10] and the drill hoe, is a triangular (point-down) or heart-shaped draw hoe that is particularly useful for digging narrow furrows ("drills") and shallow trenches for the planting of seeds or bulbs. [11] [12] The Paxton hoe is similar to the Italian hoe, but with a more rounded rectangular blade.

  8. Template:Track listing total length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Track_listing...

    The template does not input or output the inclusion of hours (i.e. no H:MM:SS formats). Up to 20 track times can be passed into the template; however, given that the template itself returns a standarized format timestamp, the results can then be nested if the total time of more than 20 track times is required.

  9. Bagger 288 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bagger_288

    The large surface area of the tracks means the ground pressure of the Bagger 288 is very small (1.71 bar or 24.8 psi); this allows the excavator to travel over gravel, earth and even grass without leaving a significant track. It has a minimum turning radius of approximately 50 metres, and can climb a maximum gradient of 1:18 (5° incline).
