6,000+lb tree and stump with a mini excavator

BOOM! Just a short and fun video demonstrating how I've learned to kind of 'cheat' productivity with my bobcat e42 R-2 series mini excavator on land clearing projects. This was probably the biggest tree that I took down with the bobcat mini excavator on this particular land clearing project, as I could not even lift the stump end at all, and my over the blade lift capacity is just shy of 5,000 pounds! So, instead of having to spend time and energy with a chainsaw cutting it down into more manageable pieces I have learned a way to cheat the system and save time by moving the entire tree and root ball at one time with the mini excavator. Also, as usual, I will bring the receipts for proof on this one! We'll take a quick look back at a large stump that I actually weighed with a scale to see how much it actually weighed! And when you compare today's stump size to that 3,000+lb stump it is about double the size! BTW here is the link to the full video from 2017 with weighing the big
