mini digger - easy to use?

[wjwren]

Going to dig the drive out and block pave it myself. Anyone here used a mini digger or better to have one with a driver?

its to dig the drive out so I want to be accurate with the levels. Am I right in thinking a standard bucket will take the old tarmac up?

chap down the road is quoting 150 a day inc driver so il be going with that as much as I fancy messing about with the digger il probably end up taking a week to do it!
