Ideation 8,216 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 A bit over eight feet, through rock, metal, and all kinds of shit, which was two foot too shallow to get the second collar. That's right two collars pulled off. Had to give up when we hit a rolled up chain link fence, we couldnt cut through. We returned the next day with cutters etc and still couldnt get it. Ended up backfilling the collar down there Oh and we did it with a wee draper shovel with a blade as big as your hand. Johnnyboy and me Quote Link to post

Ideation 8,216 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Aye, at least we got the one, and better still, at least when the collars got caught up on the fencing, the ferrets managed to pull out of them! Quote Link to post
