Oh, that's easy. nm

I guess it would depend on the complexity of the design, but I'm sure it will be fine.

he's going to use a pick-axe! what if it bounces just right and severs a leg artery?!! - kare Apr 22, 15:18 18
- I doubt a swung tool could bounce high enough and with enough force to damage anything in the femur region, a few toes? that you can live with - zeitgeist Apr 22, 15:39 2
  - I use spade, pitchfork and hand thingy (can't come up with the word). - the liioulu with nuggets Apr 22, 15:44 1
    - Forgot to say I still have all my toes and have never nicked an artery or vein gardening. -- nm - the liioulu with nuggets Apr 22, 15:45
- He'd likely bleed out. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:20 13

    - To a sociopath, maybe. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:32
  - what would you use? seriously, if you've done something like this, suggestions are welcome - kare Apr 22, 15:21 10
    - How long is the drain going to be? nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:22 9
      - there will be two trenches leading to two storm drain type thingies. probably about 70 feet total? -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:23 8
        
        I'd probably start with the pickaxe (the hoe implement) to break the ground and then use a trenching shovel. - Dignan Apr 22, 15:31 6
        
        trenching shovel. googling. thanks! -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:33 5
        
        Note: they can be difficult if you're working with clay. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 15:36 1
        
        *giggles* that's an understatement - 'lia Apr 22, 15:45

        ha! love it -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:42
        
        Extra friends of whatever type will come in handy. Order lots of pizza, pop and beer. -- nm - the liioulu with nuggets Apr 22, 15:41
        
        oh, one leading to each side of the house. if that makes sense. -- nm - kare Apr 22, 15:25
- assuming his friends are also trauma surgeons, i don't see a problem -- nm - dignan si Apr 22, 15:19
