When the gasoline began to run out and the prices to run up, Herbert O'Dell Smith, 64, agreed to do his bit for the energy crisis. A professional stunt man, he had earned his nickname of "Digger O'Dell" by allowing himself to be buried alive for various ventures. He was campaigning underground for President Carter in Columbia, S.C., in 1976 when he had a heart attack that prompted his retirement.
But to dramatize the gas crunch, the Digger agreed to be buried at Mack's Mobile Homes lot on Highway 280 in Phenix City, Ala. "I'm not coming up till gas prices come down," said Digger. Then, wearing a T shirt and pajama bottoms, he climbed into his temporary coffin (6 ft. long and 32 in. wide and high, with a septic tank below and a viewing periscope above that doubled as a dumbwaiter for Digger's food). He was covered by 6 ft. of earth and 4 in. of concrete. Two telephones, a radio and a television, as well as the periscope, connected him to the outside world. "I'm just one person, but I'm telling it like it is," he would say. "We don't have a gas shortage, we've got a gas wastage."
Unfortunately for Digger, however, gas prices kept going up—and so did his blood pressure. Last week, only ten days into his stint, he was ordered unearthed by his doctor. "I'm convinced the seed I planted will be cultivated," proclaimed the haggard Digger. Then he headed back to Cumming, Ga., to tend to the tomatoes on his farm
Digger has been going to Octoberfest at Old World in Huntington Beach for lots of years AND finally he got to meet and have a picture taken with the Diamond sisters (80 years young)...

I love these little bees. They are slightly aggressive but not to the point where they will attack you. It's more smoke and mirrors with them.

Digger is a dog clock whose tail swishes back and forth acting as a pendulum. Accurate time is kept because of the Quartz movement which requires one AA battery to operate. Digger's dog tag is made of polymer clay.

I've always had this design in the back of my head to do. After several attempts, this one came out the closest to what I had in mind. This little beauty has a little scooper blade in the front, wheels instead of caterpillar treads, a digger arm in the rear with two stabilizing legs on either side.
It has a solid body using the same layering building technique I've used in the past (start with a parallel center and work your way outward adding details as part of the layering). The wheels were done using a hexagon layer on one side and an offset circular ring pattern on the other. The wheel axle height is compensated within the body using a notch.
Because of the single strand magnetic field, the front roof supports could not be straightened out.
Hard to see but there is a little seat for the driver inside the cab area, which is open. The weight of the entire thing is resting on the wheels, making it want to bow a little. One improvement would be to add a few magnets below the axle center to give a bit more support hidden between the wheels down to the ground.

John came into camp to extend the recreation tent 16', so that we could watch the Stanley Cup playoffs. We had to dig it out first, John doing the bulk of the work.

i took this picture of this digger down by the harbour. it looked interesting and the yellow colours stood out the most.
Just outside Bullecourt, along the Rue des Australiens and along the side road to Reincourt–les–Cagnicourt, is the Australian Memorial Park with its statue of the bronze ‘Bullecourt Digger’. He gazes out over the fields of Bullecourt where in April and May 1917 the AIF lost 10,000 soldiers, killed or wounded, in their efforts to break into and hold part of the Hindenburg Line.
A digger punches a hole in the outside wall of the Lollipops building in Christchurch, just before sun up. The digger is on the inside of the building. The building was condemned as a result of the 2011 earthquakes.
Difficult shot because it was pitch black except for the lighting from the digger. The fencing makes it difficult to get many or even any shots post the earthquakes. It is typical of much of the current state of Christchurch which is sill in demolition mode three years on.
