Considering buying a stump grinder

Apr 10, 2005 3 Replies

I have a large lot with lots of trees and stumps in Florida. I am retired now and have time and health. About 5 years ago when I lived in Pennsylvania - I rented a stump grinder to remove several big stumps. It was easy to use and did a nice job - I was very surprised. I forget what I paid to rent it.



The reason I would buy on instead of rent it is because I do not want to try to do everything in a couple days.



Does anyone own a stump grinder that they would suggest someone would buy for home use?



What are some good brand to look for that are not too expensive but dependable?

Too many permitts and now you have to have sign permission from all land owners with in 5 miles as to there permission to blast. Now if any of the land owner has a well that messes up during you blasting. You promose to repair it if it goes bad. When i was a kid, I would watch the stump blaster blast stump and it was fun. Now days it's just not worth the trouble when you can get a D-9 Cat and pop them out of the ground like peas out of a pea shell.

I wish things was like they use to be.
