Big enough for what I'm not sure as my father is NOT one for accurate descriptions.
That said, I'm going out of state to help him over the July 4th weekend.
He said he needs to clear out some brush up the the diamater of 8 inches. Though I think he said the diamater of a cantalope /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
He priced a small trac-hoe and just now found out he can get a Terramite (sp?) for probably a bit cheaper. My recollection about those is they are very light??
Imagine a THICK hedgerow. The electric company cleaned a large swath of it out while they were doing maintainence on their power line. He wants to reclaim the area for grass.
Evidently there are "tons" of stubble, stumps and just junk sticking out of the ground anywhere from sapling up to "the diamater of a canalope or watermellon" (his exact words if not exact spelling)
So, if you have stumps the size of those fruits, tree species unknown, (near Columbia, SC) would a Terramite be sufficient or would a trac hoe be better...? how about a Kubota B21/L35 size? I like the rubber wheels and loader buckets too (over trachoe)
Thoughts?? & Thanks
