Video Distraction: Man excavates basement with R/C models

Man excavates his basement using only R/C models:

It took seven years for Joe Murray to excavate the basement of his home in Saskatchewan Canada using only radio controlled vehicles. Using r/c drills, excavators, haulers, and trucks, the strange technique meant he never even had to get his hands dirty.

Each Winter he mines the walls of his unfinished basement and then hauls the dirt out each summer. He once had a conveyor belt, but now uses a spiral ramp for removal. Murray estimates that he has excavated about 2 to 3 cubic yards of dirt every year for the past seven years. The motivation behind the project is fairly simple: Murray like R/C, and he likes working in his basement over long cold Saskatchewan Winters. He first got interested in the craft back in 1996, and is now modifying and repairing his own vehicles
