Here's a pic ... (click for a bigger version)

(I set a 4x4 on top for scale ...)
I trenched all around (about 2'-3' deep), and managed to cut all the surface roots.
In this pic ... There is a septic tank just behind, the septic line runs to the left, my shop is just to the right, and right in front is the power/water feed for my well. (tight quarters and I managed to not break anything! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif )
Problem is that root ball aint budging.
I really only need it taken down to grade (I wanna fill for a RV parking spot in this area).
Anyone ???
Got a good idea for breaking this loose?
Should I just burn or cut it as low as possible?
I was thinkin maybe a slip chain under the surface roots might help break it free (with enuf tugs from the truck), but I dunno ...
