OK, then that would be:

147 cubic yards, so 147,000 pounds of dirt. With a power of 4 that would take 918 seconds, correct? 147,000 divided by 160 pounds of moving per second of concentration. Or 15 minutes to move that dirt, and if its 1FP per min, that 15 FP. If this is right how is it not better then the hours or days to have it done with shoves?

and what would it be with a yard of stone or brick, do you know?
