- #stumpremoval #stump #handtoolonly Everyone knows fire is cool, so why not use it to burn out a stump! Well for one thing it could cause root fires that spread out underground but in the this case, a mimosa stump, the roots were still pretty much alive and throwing up new shoots. Watch as we fell the tree then, three years later, remove the stump the fun way.

I have to admit I wasn't to crazy about the stump removal in itself. But the interaction you and your daughter have. Was worth it. And her attitude was priceless
I am a high school teacher. When I see a child spending this kind of moment with a caring respectable parent, I know she will be a wonderful, responsible adult. She is learning, playing, socializing, and getting continuous reinforcement. I know it is your child, but Thank you. This is the best therapy session for a child. Made my day
I agree with you 100% my father was very similar i’d spend many hours helping him as a small child, 🥰
She should be working with her mom learning how to be a woman so she doesn't grow up to be some pain in the ass who thinks she can do what the boys do. Girls never used to work with the men, now everyone acts like its traditional.
Ditto, I just played video games. And this was in the eighties.
My father was a lifelong builder and farmer and I followed him around the farm, asking questions out of curiosity and eagerness to learn. He was like that dad and taught me a lot of valuable skills and autonomous thinking over the course of his life. The only girl with multiple brothers. Thanks to my dad’s humble, patient nature, as a female, I’ve broke ground and removed by hand with manual tools tree roots, large chunks of buried concrete, working 16 hour days for weeks as long as there was a ray of light, clearing ground to perfection. It was my dad that instilled the ability and tenacity in me to visualize results and persevere through projects.
that daughters enthusiasm and input is priceless. she is a joy to watch and hear. tell her she is just the best.
Getting rid of a stump is gratifying.
Spending the weekend with your daughter priceless. 🌝
I applaud the time you spent with your daughter , life lessons worth more than gold , she won’t forget this time with Dad 👍🏻🙏🏻❤️
Without doubt one of the most satisfying tree stump removal vids I've seen on YT. Well done and a great project with your lovely daughter
Love the video and your daughter is so entertaining! Her dialogue is priceless.
Fun day shared with a little one, she will remember this for a long time.
That little lady is learning so much more by doing with her Dad. Hands on lessons stick with you for life. You remember by learning from your mistakes and accomplishments.
When you showed the clip of you cutting down the tree, my blood ran cold when I saw the little girl standing opposite you while you were swinging the axe.
Nice work. Watching this because I`ve spent the last four days digging out a stump during the coronavirus lockdown in the UK. Couldn`t burn it because it was up against my neighbours wall with a timber fence built in...My daughter helped me as well!!
AWESOME SAUCE!!!! Oh and Laurel is just DARLING, she's smart as a whip!!
For anyone looking to burn out a stump there is some math involved on why surface burning takes so much fuel but it all boils down to the moisture in the wood stealing the thermal energy in the conversion to steam. wet wood acts as in insulator keeping the heat within 1-2 inches as cooking off process happens and even getting the fire very hot with forced air will only speed it up so much as it is the transfer rate into the wood and not how fast to boil water. A slow smoldering fire protected from the rains uses a lot less fuel then a huge bonfire and the fun one is the stump itself has the BTU's to do the full process if you can drill a burn shaft and air shafts then just start a small fire and sit back and wait.
So many videos on CZcams show people starting from the top of the stump and getting nowhere fast. You have gone the right way by going below ground level and making escape chutes for the rising heat. Job well done.
All I can say is that your daughter made this video. Made me smile, I remember when my daughter was that age. God speed sir.
James T Kirk Thanks James! I agree, take care
So much fun listening to your daughters excitement! BUT...I got concerned at the 2:04 mark when I saw her wrestling that tree root with the pick axe spike pointing up. Glad the bad thing didn't happen! LOL
I'm not going to mention any names or anything but I have a family member who used to work for Norfolk Southern Railroad. The Railroad used to stock and I'm sure they still do stock Dynamite in order to blow rocks loose when digging out tunnels or raising the height clearance of a tunnel.So this family member had free access to it. Getting rid of stumps with Dynamite was no problemo no and it was always good entertainment for a bunch of people drinking beer. But one time a friend called and said he was building a pond and that they ran into a big rock while digging it out. This family member said "hey no problem I will bring it over and we'll just blow that rock out of the way." so all of us made about an eighth of a mile clearance between ourselves and the Blowing Rock and we hid behind his van. None of us were injured but a huge Boulder Came Crashing Down On Top of the van and crush it. Needless to say, that was my last attendance to rock blowing. Just saying.
I watched the video and it was interesting. However I think the best part was and you and your daughter working together. You are building memories that will not be forgotten. Good Job Pa Pa!
Good video, thanks. I dumped a bag of charcoal around a few stubborn stumps and it really helped the process along.
awesome, great idea and thanks!
Awesome Video. Thanks for sharing your day with us.
She had a good idea of showing the roots - well done ;-)
pallet.tv yes, like her Mom, always good ideas to save me from barreling ahead
It,s me again, I admire your beautiful helper she is very keen. Lovely
Just an observation I know you take every precaution when working with kids around I just noticed at 2:10 she left her pick spike sticking straight up looks like you must have seen it cause when it was shown again it was laid over it makes it more fun working with your kids around and you can never be to careful great job enjoyed the vid.
'... when working with kids around.. ' ..you can never be to careful..'
Amen.. all of us doing 'extra' deep gardening these days, with little ones running around.. stay safe folks :-)
Great video, thanks for sharing..blessings to you and your family....from California 😊😊
It's been a while brother, great to see you back here 😎
Angel D. Mercedes thank you my friend...good to be back! I have many unfinished videos to put out soon
Great job and also to your little helper👏👏💪👍
Nice job!
OMG what a great helper!!!!!!!!
No wonder why it went so well
Cute little helper!!
good job! patient dad!
Hi Kyle, greetings from the sunny climes of Basel, Switzerland
Good job!
Good job Dad!
Very nice video, and a job done properly.
good job, papa!
I remember when my kids wanted to help, usually takes two times longer but is a real memory maker. And remember if you want to teach a child to fish leave your pole at home. That's what I did, and my son loves fishing, one of the things that stuck. Oh, thanks for the stump video.
You're a great dad!!
Nice work.
Thank you!
You have a nice helper there!
Pretty awesome good work working with ur daughter!
Awesome teamwork
Motivation and young, beautiful quality's, and hope you and her keep up the great work! 😊
Smart kid you have ... Good video. 👍
Hats off's to you young man, she is having a great time.
I remember you showing this in class also your daughter is priceless she is so cute
Watched this video with my daughter. In fact we’ve watched several stump removal videos and we think yours is the best. If only we had a stump to remove too. Dang. BTW did you ever consider using charcoal?
Good job 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Your little girl is very impressive she's not afraid to get her hands dirty and not afraid to do a little manual labor and best of all she's actually having fun contributing
Best way I've seen so far
Great kid lol you are must be a great dad
Get them youngsters off the games and into some outdoors, very good dad! Getting dirty is just fun!
What a great dad you are!
Thank you, I’m trying to be!
That little girl is a very smart and hard working person. And you are the apple of her eye. And great video also. You burned it out the best of anyone else because you dug it out further down which allows the air and 🔥 to burn more of it out and less dirt let's the wood heat up and burn down lower
Good job
Men spending quality time with their daughters. Lost art 😢
She’s lucky!!
Aww daddy little helper times like these is special for making memories of working together by making videos later you can watch them after she grow up gone to college
I see you still have your Cedar pattern hatchet, similar in design to the Oberharzer.
By the way, the funniest video of stump removal! Thanks for sharing! Love your daugther support and comments!!
Excellent as always... so glad I somehow stumbled upon your channel... and subscribed!
Jeff Ebdy thanks so much! That really motivates me to finish more videos I have backlogged! Take care man 👍
"Papa! I feel I have a future as a Social Influencer!"
great vid, your sweet daughter made it even better
Greetings from Australia. I have seen and heard about some horrific accidents with winch cables and straps and I shuddered every time your little girl walked close to it. Way safer to use chain instead of strap and also hang a heavy blanket or chain on the wire to take the energy out of recoil should it break.
Great idea. Use the surrounding soil itself as a kiln.
That kid is awesome!
Gostei vai servir pra min aqui no sitio do meu pai no Brasil muito obridago parabéns .
Should let her use the camera more often, shes quite good at picking out shots
Whats that antique store next to your house called? I went to a few and cant find shit worth of tools . Anyway i live in Pennsylvania Huntington Mills so could I have the name of the store so I could go there
I'm wondering where you managed to find a hand drill. Lol quite the antique.
Lmao, damn good vid
What is the name of that pulley to drag the tree out please.Where can i get one in the uk.
Hand winch. Amazon.
www.amazon.co.uk/sealey-gww1200m-geared-capacity-webbing/dp/b00e1jkx9o/ref=sr_1_12crid=2uqxtsmcegr2tdchild=1keywords=winch+pulleyqid=1590248867sprefix=winch2caps2c393sr=8-12
It is so wholesome 😁😊
I think it is great that you got your kids involved. It is the best way to learn, but keep her away from that winch cable. They are incredibly dangerous and they are quite indiscriminate when they snap. Never too young to learn to be safe.
What was the tool you used to drill the hole in the trunk?
A hand auger. I found this one at an antique store, it’s from the late 1800s
What is that large T-handle tool called?
Tyler Bolin Hand auger. This one is from the late 1800s
I kinda flinched when she was bending that root towards your GI shovel. Then the next shot you had moved it.
My method is to dig around like you did and cut all the roots as far from the stump as necessary using an Axe.
Then I will pull it and let it dry for a while and then burn.
Without the help of your little princes, I'm sure you still struggling to burn it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hard work! Shame the whole thing didn't burn out right through the roots; that last one, I thought it was an alligator you were pulling out!
Дочь умница! Папе помогает!
No power tools at all? Impressive.
Ha you let the stump stay there for three years how did you talk it into staying? They always want to up and scoot
2:06
very cute !!
I have taken down a lot of trees off of my city lot over the years! I just remembering all of that work!!! Lol 😂No thanks! I have had all I want !!.,😜😜😜 Regards BobLee I look forward to seeing what you are doing!
Bob Lee's Woodshop haha I hear you, thanks man! Hope you’re doing well!!
You should have turned it into a BBQ and a few beers .LOL
Bro, put a heavy moving blanket over the cable and secure with some tape in case the cable snaps.
Why in the world are you pulling it if it's not attached?
Adorable moment with her Dad ❤
Looks like a lot of fun. I've got a couple of stumps in my back yard that need removing. Want to come here and take out mine?
A medium sized tree fell over in a storm before I moved here. All the previous owners did was cut it off at the stump. It's already half way out of the ground. It is kind of close to the property line about 2 feet from a chain link fence. I don't know if I can burn it out without setting other vegetation on fire.
Dynamite is much quicker ..and even MORE fun! Ask me how I know..lol..
Good Help is Great Help
Slow cooked whole lamb on top would have been ideal......
Why would you ever cut down a tree that serves you champagne and orange juice??
That girl ain't scared of one thing in this world. I'm sure she will be able to change a flat tire and use a set of jumper cables in a world where grown men can't change their own flat tire or use a set of jumper cables. Just saying.
Very wholesome. I panicked hard seeing your daughter walk by a strap under tension without any eye protection, hope all is well.
I had an axe head fly off once and just missed hitting a friend's head when we were kids. Never let anyone stand in front of you when chopping wood. Other than that awesome video!!!
Thats way more effective than destroying 8 tyres on a semi.
I wish I had a dad.
haha she's quite the boss.
Why in the world are you pulling! 15:53 LOL
Why did you cut that tree down?
Stephen Cao it was dead, not producing leaves. Mimosas grow fast but have a short life span
it seems more easy but it waste toooooo much wood for nothing...for my point of view its fail method .... stumps are beautifull if you take them out with the root system and clean them up they could be a nice sculpture in your yard if you put them upsidedown
