stump

I have monster ash tree stump, extracted and lying on a perilous slope. It is encrusted with slate. It needs cutting before moving it.

My local hire shop offers a masonry chainsaw for £100 per day plus £50 per 0.5mm wear charge on the diamond chain. I await their email reply as to whether it can be used on wood and what my max liability is on the wear-charge. In the meantime I would welcome any comments from anyone who has gone down this path.

I'd get it to level ground and get a 360 to bash it about to clear most of the stone/soil etc. And see whats left. Diamond cutting tools are no good on wood as the clog up too easily.

We had a windthrow a few years back alongside the highway on a steep bank. Got a crane to turn it over and drop it back in the hole. Still there 12 years later.
