Hi people. I've got two tree stumps to remove (or get to below ground level to be more exact) - quite big ones (between 15 and 20 inches) - old pine trees. I thought I could hack them to a lower level with an axe but this has appeared optimistic!
I'm in South Wales and stump grinders seem a bit difficult to come by without waitng a couple of weeks. So one hire shop I spoke to said they didn't do stump grinders any more but had just bought a "ripper blade". Fella said they just bought it a couple of days ago from a rep that walked in off the street (who reckoned it would grind out a tree stump). It goes on your Stihl saw.
All I can find out about it is here: http://www.diamondblades.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=50_74&products_id=455
Looks lethal enough but the hire shop has no feedback on it so doesn't know how good it is.
Has anyone tried using one for stump grinding? It doesn't quite look for that purpose to me but some feedback from anyone else would be helpful!
Cheers
Dan
