A Hilariously Tiny Mini Excavator

That's the Komatsu PC01-1 Mini Excavator. Puts out 3.5 horsepower, weighs about 840 pounds, and can dig to a maximum depth of 3.5 feet. According to Komatsu it's designed for general construction, gardening and pipe-laying in confined spaces.
Unsurprisingly, they don't sell the PC01 series in America. Yankees who want to get in at the ground level of Komatsu diggers have to start with the 6,500-pound, 24-horsepower PC30MR-5 (below)...and even with one of those you're going to get some judgmental head-shakes.

I want one! :D Now all I need is a garden to play around with...
BTW, it seems like this things is just designed for bad posture... In order to look into the hole you're digging you need to bend forward, but to do that for a full work shift is going to be too much... What if it had a stomach/breast rest? would be interesting...
