    GEEZ, that is a monster. Would love to see it in action. When i get time to work on it, I am clearing and grubbing weed trees and roots on a 4 acre plot with my OLD Ford 455 backhoe. But very few of the weed trees have more than 6" trunks.

    You burned up a couple of pounds of rod on that!!!
