Re: Pick & Shovel
I have both. The pick is getting pretty rusty but there is no replacement for your basic shovel.

Re: Pick & Shovel
This is how I spell pick & shovel whenever I can. Bobcat X320 excavator 39" wide 3,500 LBS 8" & 16" buckets, Thumb and Hydraulic hammer. Bobcat 443 Skidsteer 44" & 36" wide buckets and tires 2000 LBS. They work much harder than you would think.
