Could you shed some further light? It looks like a huge root ball but I think I spy a k380 in the background. Mighty impressive. Could you post a pic of your avatar in case you ever change it?

Don't be suprised Ben, I have pulled back roots like that with my spartan 100 machine;)

sometimes I find that a 3/8 cable will grab and bring more back, as where my 3/4 will loose them

let me remind you that I only run a 3/8 when the customer does not have a mainline c/o, and I have no other choices left.

As long as they have a vent or toilet, you always have a choice.

Wish I was that good, but, there was no clean out, had to pull the toilet. Got the K380 stuck big time. I had to dig outside to find the line, broke a poured concrete coupling and retrieved my cable and pulled out the root. Cut in a two-way clean out for future.

Funny you should mention power tools and food service Rick. I had a restraunt several years ago, was doing a banquet for 300. I had a stock pot full of potatoes that needed to be whipped. The prospect of whipping this by hand was not appealing, so I went out to my truck and got my Dewalt right angle drill and drywall mud paddle (a new one). At 1200 rpm, there wasn't a lump in that whole pot in under a minute, a little butter, garlic and other seasonings and I had garlic mashed potatoes for 300. My help thought I was nuts,and I felt like Tim, the toolman, Taylor.
