I didn't even watch the vid yet.... that's an awesome Bronco :).

Byron and I would have had Shaun's stump out already too... but it would have taken me a lot longer!

I wonder if the new Bronco will do that?

That was a really rotten old stump.

Yeah it was but the 8274 is a beast of a winch. I used that method once with a triangle built of wood to get post hole footings out of the ground it worked great

Yes sir we would have. BTW, next time you are in jax.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1601852639.jpg

Best $300 ever spent. If I had known how big his grinder was I wouldn't have cut it down. Too much work for a little 16" saw and the locust wood eats chains.

It took literally 20 minutes to get it off the trailer and then demolish, annihilate, obliterate the stump and 5 minutes to get it back on. Machine was remove controlled.

I don’t know if the grinders come in sizes, but I watched a guy use one to remove a stump once. It was amazing how fast it swept side to side and ate it up.

That grinder is a freakin' beast!

Stump-B-Gone :)

^What he said! Was there a spotter so the operator would not go too far?

Has this topic ground to a halt? :)

No spotter, we were both about 10 feet away. So glad the plans changed since I started this thread. Would have taken way too much time to remove it without taking everything else down.

Roots were fun to remove with a 1500 lb winch. Snapped the cable twice though.

Thanks for the followup and pics. I love stuff like this! :D

Next I have to get some of that Tordon RTU you posted Baz. Any roots I can't get out I need to make sure are killed. Don't need anything growing back.

Glad you got it done.

And might I add that's the biggest stump grinder I've ever seen. All I've ever seen here are walk-behind models.

Is that sunken area for a lift?

Kind of surprised there aren't any expansion cuts in that 'crete.

Hi Scott, yes, to make painting rockers and wheel wells easier. Also for doing light, non-greasy mechanical work.

The PVC runs through the concrete to the lift so I can mount the controls on the wall and not trip over the hydraulic lines.
