Taking out some trees with the

Removing 2 damaged bradford pear trees, a couple of hollys, and a big cedar.

People whom have never run equipment do not understand that trying to remove that with a D3 cat dozer would have taken almost as long a time, 3 times the fuel and destroyed that yard. Mini excavators are amazing

I sharpened and serrated the edge of my ripper that I used for grubbing on my 50 series machine, worked a lot better.

I’ve thought about trying that. How thick is your ripper tooth and how did you do it? Plasma cutter? Ours is almost 2 inches thick.

Torch and a big grinder

So is the ripper better then the bucket for stump removal?

[@axplandmanagement633]

Absolutely. Breaks the roots easier, less cleanup, and it gets under the stump better than the bucket.

Wow that was the hardest to get that stump out! 😅

[@axplandmanagement633]

This one wasn’t too bad. Check out the monster stump we tried to dig up recently.
