Stumped

There was an annoying tree stump in the backyard that was really upsetting my view of the backyard. It wasn't a large stump but I consider them so white trashy looking. It had to go. So I brought my table saw from Sag Harbor last week to get the job done. You make sever cuts into the top of the stump and more perpendicular to those. This makes it easier to cut it down in layers with the reciprocating saw. It's not as easy as you'd think. Holding both saws is hard on the arms. It took several layers of cutting to get it down to (almost) ground level. But it was worth it. It now blends into the rock that it was near and will continue to detiriorate with age. Here are two BEFORE & AFTER shots of it.
