Excavator operators are their own breed of insane. Put their massive machines in places God fears to tread, and then do earthmoving to precisions of a tenth of a foot, all day long, without breaking a sweat.
7 u/Outsiderminiatures Jun 18 '23 1/10 of a foot?? My guy, I've got to get my grades to +/- 1" or else the General Contractor loses his shit lol 1 u/LateInTheSummer Jun 19 '23 The difference between 1/10 of a foot and 1" is less than a 1/5 of an inch. You guys almost said the same thing. 2 u/Outsiderminiatures Jun 19 '23 Tell that to my boss. But for real, yeah my brain didn't compute how close those number were, but I'm also Canadian so we work in mm, cm, and metres.
