Un-Stumped!

In my Stumped! post you will remember that I was having a little trouble removing a big tree stump. Well, I'm pleased to say that the stump is no longer a problem. We rented a stump grinder for the day and after several hours grinding, the stump was reduced to dust.

In fact, we took care of two other smaller stumps as well. The large stump took about 4 hours to grind, a second stump took about an hour, and the smallest one about 30 minutes. It was quite a work-out.

Wow! That does look like hard work! It's also not the machine that I was picturing when I recommended you use one - the one I hired was attached to the back of a Land Rover, the blade was at least five times the diameter and was moved using hydraulic rams. It was a piece of cake to use. The fact that it also came with a nice man who operated it reduced my work load significantly too ;)
