Land Clearing

Over 600 stumps ground.

I was going to ask what you were doing with stumps but there you go! Nice grinder!

The stump grinder is a Shaver. It is very nice but not mine. I hired a guy with a small family timber buisness to drop about 100, 20"+ pines. He did it all with a chainsaw and never hit not 1 hardwood. He was amazing. I gave him all the timber for grinding the stumps. He even piled up the tops, and hauled off several truck loads of smaller pines I had dropped.

Pad for shop is almost complete. Hit 60/40 while digging the pond, great for the pad.

Been following the thread too... that's a heck of a hole in the ground! Someday, hopefully, you'll get rain to fill it :thumbsup:

Thanks Eddie. I've followed your project on here as well as Pond Boss. I'm sure I will be needing advice soon!!

Finally!! a temporary lift on the burn ban. Managed to get about 10 piles done in 2 days. Most all of the piles around the driveway, house pad and shop pad are gone. That makes me feel a lot better about starting to build anything.

Long time since I've posted anything. Slow but steady progress. Started the pole barn and should start the house in a couple weeks.
