John,
Thanks

Yes I suspect I may have a sewerage pipe running under where I want to dig... best to double check me thinks

Good thing you found your pipes.
Ross,
Good god those are thick spacers! Looks like it's going nowhere fast hehe. I'm pretty you're going faster than me, I have yet to get the adapter plate re below
--------------------
Progress on my pier, the bulk of it is done! Last thing left is to make up the adapter to fit the NEQ6. Just waiting to get the NEQ6 measured up and then it's done

I really should start the dig, I've been very lazy with it
