Chris I've been following you for years. I know you only have one way to work. The Chris Way is you treat every slice of land as if it were yours. You stump so you won't hit anything and harm your equipment. You rake to make it clean. You stack and burn and restack and burn so you don't have much to haul off or bury. Every land owner should be so glad to hire you. Efficient to the max and mild mannered. Plus I get aerials. See you next week.

I got cynical listening to people only wanting to do the minimum they were paid for, not giving a full effort. I learned from my parents that you give your best, every day. I see the same work values in you and those that work with you. I appreciate you demonstrating that with all of your videos. Thank you.

With the stumps, would it be worthwhile to split them to make them burn quicker? My first thought would be some sort of blade attached to the bucket, and squishing them between bucket and thumb to split them, but I don't know if it generates enough force. Maybe push them against the ground with a blade on the bucket? Maybe a blade from one of those hydraulic log splitters, with something welded to it so you can slide it onto the bucket, then strap it in place so it doesn't fall off. The force of splitting would push the blade against the bucket. Just an idea that struck me. For your dozer-getting-stuck problem, consider a kinetic rope. There's a hitch on the back of the dozers anyway, and an elastic pull will be more gentle than just yanking with the bucket.
