[QUOTE="Darhawk, post: 517145, member: 7766"] Thank y'all for all the ideas. Talked to a guy (retired) with a machine (big old Case dozer) that has a v-shaped, best description spike, on the front. He pushes this in under the stumps and lifts them out. After looking at my disc, he suggested just doing the big stumps and let the disc chew up the smaller ones. As he pops the stumps, his son runs a small case 550 machine to push them into a pile to burn. For the work he charges $145 (both machines) and expects to be about a day. Gave references for me to call. Another guy has a big Cat with an industrial size stump grinder on the front. He can chew down three feet into the stump/ground. He runs $110/hr. He also suggests just doing the big stumps. Will think over both offers. The loggers should be finished the end of next week. The machine they used to cut trees was a big Cat Skid with grappling arms and a cutter at ground level. So all stumps are at ground level. He cut the tree and carried the whole tree upright to where ever he wanted to put it. I'd never seen such a machine. He cut trees within 18 inches of my fence lines and never touched the fence. Am I happy or what. [/QUOTE]
