Best of luck with your new hoe. I'd love to have one but not enough room here.

I first operated a 2 handle ditch witch, then went to work for a company that had 4 stick Case machines. I was very dangerous on those machines. They later went to 2 stick machines. I did like the Case Extend-A-Hoe

never operated a skid steer before. Hopped in one to move it out of the way, couldn t even figure out how to start it. They are do-all machines. One of those and a mini-ex can build just about anything.
