We don't have dirt in Southern AZ. We have caliche, (spelling). A substance known to be as hard or harder than concrete... Good luck!

It's easiest dealt with using a pressure washer and hydro excavation...

That wasn't an option even the jack hammer was struggling and the guys I had helping were not the greatest.
I'm not even supposed to be digging but I couldnt bear the lack of progress!!
 
Just finished the crown on my 586 the first removable pilot I felt was too small so I had Manson make me a new one it fit perfect.
Will test again and do more on forcing cone if needed.

My last job before I retired was as a helicopter mechanic at an Army Aviation Depot. Individual toolbox inventories were done at the end of every shift, and even if the smallest, most insignificant tool was missing, no one went home. That meant all personal in that hanger went on a tool search until the missing tool was found. These hangers were pretty big, with easily 200-300 workers in a hanger. Now on overtime because somebody misplaced their tool that they had laid down somewhere. The bean counters were never happy about that!

I worked at an aircraft company based in Winnipeg , and we had a national defense contract to overhaul military jets. I worked there in the same capacity as when I was in the military working that same job. Needless to say, when you took a tool from the tool board, you put your tag on the space that tool occupied. All tools had to be accounted for at the end of the day, or you stayed until it was found...you didn't want to be that guy who held up quitting time. When the aircraft was considered "done", it was x-rayed. They could pick up something as small as the tip of a cut off cotter pin or lock wire. They would not release that aircraft for test flight until they got a clear FOD check...and guess who was elected to go into cockpits head first to find that :poop:. Yours truly. Nothing left behind. Period.
