So Mendy..... You are an educated fella.....Do you want to work smarter...or harder and have less time for yourself? I referred the GW's set up to Shutree sometime back when I posted pics of the one I got. I use it frequently to trim up trees and amazingly you do not need one of the silly bamboo ladders that are death traps. The hedger attachment is very nice as well. You can find deals on Lazada on their big month sales. While I can appreciate your frugal approach to things, then you cannot openly complain you have no time for anything, have blisters on your hands and ants biting your feet. Maybe its the Isaan water
If there is another stump event, next time I recommend to wet the area around the stump a day before, then add water a bit on and off as you dig. In the pics that dirt looks like he chiseled it out of cement. The hole he was digging to get it out looked nice and tidy so bonus points for that.
