Concrete!!!

[garth mc garth]

just get a clay spade on a decent breaker and work in a line down the stem and cleave it open then chuck a pin in the gun and break up the concrete

Unfortunatley fire isnt an option think it will have to be break it up with a lot of hammering and sweating if we cant get it away with a trolley.

 

thanks for replies

Dismantaled a fairly large birch today and 5 foot up was some concrete. Not a problem we thought just work round it and take it back. Until 6 foot up from the cavitie the concrete was in we hit some more and we now have a 6 foot long and 2 foot diameter birch stump in a garden.

 

Acces is poor a 2 foot 10 gate to get through we may have a trolley to get it on to but its not going to be easy to get it over a lawn.

 

So has anyone got any ideas? Any one tried putting a kango through a bit of wood before?

Kango won't work but you can get a blade for a diskcutter that will rip through wood and concrete.

Termites. Leave it long enough and they'll chew a honeycomb through the concrete Saw it in Oz once. Termites had chewed up the concrete around the base of the tree and taken it 30 feet up to a large hollow limb and filled the hollow with concrete through about 6 feet of its length. Never seen anything like it before or since.
