Well I was at it again today with the stumps. This one was even bigger than the last one I posted. Some of you guys didn't think I actually got the last one out with my TC33D but I did. I tried to take some pics while I was removing this one. I was able to lift the last stump about 2 or 3 feet off the ground. I barely got this one off the ground at all.

Another Pic about 35 minutes into the removal.

Last Picture. The whole process took 1 hour and 10 minutes. That included removing the stump, taking the pictures, and bringing the stump to the stump pile.

Love your signature and your stump even more /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

Not knowing much about stumps (except I pad a guy to come here yesterday to cut 5 palms down and grind the stumps and it cost $250 for 35 minutes !!), what are you using to remove it?

Are they normal pallet forks for lifting pallets, or are they some special stump forks??

Golly good show old chap /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Maybe I missed out on an earlier thread but what's the story on those forks? I can't stop drooling! Are they made for a tractor or modified from a forklift?

Love the picture. Forks raised high in victory. You should have drove one tire up onto the stump. Now you can mount the stump on your trophy wall.

Now that's the kind of photo documentation I like to see! /w3tcompact/icons/cool.gif

Never thought about digging stumps with my forks -- not sure it would work in my soil anyway. Of course, I have the wimpy clamp-on forks, not the way cool and sturdy rig you've got. Please tell us more about what you've got there.

I'm gonna add this to the things I didn't know you could do with a tractor.
