Tool Frustration Rag
Tug has it right. Right tool for the right job. I don't have the RootBall Eradicating Technology.
The rootball is the gritty reality of soft wet wood. I've hacked small bits off, but the main ball is still there. I need to either hack about a third off, or recruit some serious muscle--which only delays the problem, doesn't fix it. So, A Tool Shed has 36" chainsaws...I'll check and see if they're actually in stock in the morning.
Why am I still commenting on this when it should be done, again? Got the fluids for the borrowed 16" chainsaw today, got it running, sharpened the blade, started it up, and it can barely hack the roots. Not enough power. Right up until it floods while I'm giving it gas; didn't get the mix right.
Haven't looked at bike yet...

THAT would be ideal;
