Welcome back, Sam I was happy to see your note about the Mantis tiller. I've wanted one for years, and never had the money in my pocket at the right time. I used to dig my flowerbeds, etc., with a shovel, but age is slowing me down and I was also doing less gardening. So I finally broke down and bought that Mantis last week. I haven't even had a chance to use it yet, but am looking forward to it, so was glad to see how much you enjoyed the results of using yours. So far, I've been planting my containers, but I bought a load of nursery plants this weekend, so I plan to use the tiller this week. Andrea
