  Did you ever consider using a Ditchwitch type of trencher to trench rows into the floor up to two or three feet first? Then use the hammerdrill to finish it up.

  Those mini LED lights for your art gallery, do you have a link? I'm looking to do the same thing but, without all the digging :D

  A very underrated tool. I went with a good one, a Bosch. I have some basement drainage to engineer for a new bathroom and some concrete work around the yard. This allows concrete demo with precision so you don't have to take a sledge to a lot more floor than you need. I just got the spike bit, I have to get the spade bit for digging. I have some concrete embedded posts to remove. Very useful. Just make sure you service it. Modern tools have a service indicator light that disables the tool until you have it looked at by an authorized repair center. There are benefits of getting a good tool. More engineering for things like shock absorption (VERY important for your joints) and attachments to install a vacuum with a filter to catch particles. More amps and strikes per minute. Internal parts are durable enough to last.

  Starting to do something similar to this myself. Bought a house for 18K and it has needed a LOT of work. Currently has a crawlspace underneath it and the foundation is rubblestone style using sandstone and let's just say that there is a section that is falling apart. I figure I will need to at least dig down to the rock and clay layer to replace the foundation and while I am at it I may as well see if I can put in a full basement. Probably going to be a multi year project but if you figure what your time is worth when you are sitting on your butt doing nothing (approx. -$1.00 per hour is what it costs to live for one person with basic food and electricity maybe more or less depending on where you live) doing something is a lot better than nothing at all. I have a section about 10X15 dug down to the rock layer and the topsoil runs between 18" and 24" deep. Been pulling that out to fill in the yard and a few other area's. I had previously put in a garden and pulled around 1500 pounds of large stones out of that area so needed the topsoil to fill that back in. Going to use the rock and clay layer to raise a section around my house between 8" and 16" to put in a patio. If I can't get down deep enough for a basement then at least I will have a crawlspace that is deep enough to move around in without worming my way around. Either way I will be able to put in a cast concrete reinforced foundation that will be a ton better than what is currently there. As far as engineering, I doubt there was much done on my place when it was built in 1911 but an 8" thick wall with rebar every 12" vertically and horizontally will be plenty strong. I have actually poured something similar when working on a job where we tore out a bridge to put in a pair of 21' diameter arch pipe. If it was strong enough to anchor those monsters with water trying to lift them up I am sure it will work for a lowly foundation for a house on top of a hill, LOL. The most important part for you is if you enjoy it. Personally I want to setup a small woodshop and maybe some storage, after that who knows. But a place to work on stuff for me will be a huge deal. I also understand about working your knees, I broke the end off of my clavicle and tore a bunch of stuff up. Walked around for 15 years complaining about it until something was done, digging has helped some but I doubt it's going to be completely healed without another surgery.

  This was the Bauer 12.5 amp SDS Max hammer drill from Harbor Freight. There are some less expensive models as well now, but I haven't tried them. The shovel bit is an SDS Max clay spade, 4.5" x 17".

  @@PoppasCottage I went over today to look at them. Picked up the Hercules version of this 12 amp for $200. It weighs in at 15 lb, and hopefully I can handle that.. Also ordered the Bosch spade from Amazon for $50.. It 3 lbs as opposed to the HF version which is 5 lbs.

  Be gentle to the fragile ecosystem! Bogs and wetlands are a very important habitat at high risk due to development. The flora and fauna there is beautiful. A boardwalk is good to have the least impact. Anyway, looks like you have created a lovely oasis for your family to make a lot of happy memories. Was that a special drill to work underwater?
