keep the chips for garden mulch. Or just pile it in the back . In a couple years you will have black gold for the garden.

I saw a Godfather movie last week. They chopped up a body in a similar one.

Gonna spread a lot of it to cut down on erosion. We are not quite at the top of the hill. Lots above us have a lot of water running off through us.

In real life people use an electric chainsaw from Harbor Freight, cheaper and easier to destroy the DNA evidence. up

I'm needing a fence row cleared and the guy said he can bring the track loader and mulch or a dozer and knock em down. Thinking the dozer, so the stump/roots will be cleared.

Calling The Man was a smart move. I decided with my tenacity and new pole saw to DYI. Then the fire ants hit me, then the saw threw its chain. I came in the house and turned my AC down to 66°. A penny saved is not always a penny earned. Later guys. Have to find my Benadryl cream..

I would have given up except for the kindness of a neighbor, Captain Mark Rives HFD. He happens to be lurker on THF.
