Not enough to matter. The point is that it would have cost several hundred dollars to have the stump removed but it only cost him a bag of charcoal and a couple of gallons of vegetable oil. I'm guessing that he probably chopped the wood himself and probably owned the tree it came from to begin with(could have been from the same tree as the stump he was burning for all we know). So yeah...your attempt at a cheap shot at this harmless guy was a fail.
Wesley H. He also burnt a whole bunch of wood, aka tree's Your attempt at being overly sensitive and completely devoid of humour was a success! Congrats
I am a Stump Grinder and have put a link to your video in all my advertisements and my card. Whenever people are not sure about hiring me, I tell them to watch your video. They immediately call afterwards and hire me!!! Business has tripled since I did that, it's BOOMING!!! Thanks!!!
Dynamite used to work real good for getting rid of stumps, but they made it more difficult to get hold of in the last 60 years or so for some reason. My cousin blew one out for my dad just outside of Madisonburg, Ohio right around 1961 with either a half or a quarter-stick. Roots, stump, and possibly my mother's dentures went flying out!
No idea why this popped up in my feed, and even though I just wasted 10 mins of my life waiting for a punchline, explosion, or Something to happen, reading these comments was well worth it!
I love your style. No loud stupid music or auditioning. And you made your point with no crazy wild camera movements (that was beyond a blessing). You should give classes on how to do RUclips DIY videos. Your process of stump removal was entertaining and interesting. Where I am I'm just afraid of fire issues. The added comments at the end of your video really brought it all together. I have about 30 stumps to remove. Most are small enough to saw out by cutting the roots with a reciprocating saw (12" limb blade) and pulling the remaining stump with my large garden tractor. The big fellows I'll dig around and cut them below ground level with a chainsaw. Once well below ground level I'll cover them up. I've found I can usually get them a good 6 inches below ground level within a half hour or so. Thanks again and keep making these videos.
+Bulimic Ouroboros That's true, but you can use this fire to burn some old, dry wood leftovers, so it may be used for cleaning your backyard aswell. Also, ash from the burned wood could be used as a fertilizer for the soil in your garden. So there are also some positive aspects of doing things this method.
I don't know what's up with all of the hate on this,I honestly think it's a great way to get rid of a stump. Especially for people who don't have alot of resources at hand (like a chainsaw, backhoe, etc.). Not to mention when you brought out the rebar tripod base and cooked up something, that got a hell of a laugh out of me Good video series, it got me to like/subscribe haha
oh i agree, a thumbs down is still a view, was replying to the comment from sakiLOVER asking why so much hate on your video. good video and congrats on the high view count.
+Marsh Rat couldn't you cut 4 holes at the very bottom of the stump that is showing and just pour what ever you want to put in the cuts and light them and it will burn from the inside up and out
+Mechanic Gammer good onya i was only joshin with ya! im from uk back street mechanics arent too bad really they do tends to adhere to cosh rules hazardous waste disposals etc protocols even in.grimey places i believe in saving any wastes going into the gen enviro at most costs! its gettin pretty expensive to do the right thing tho!! adding to biz costs try eu laws on it see how you fare!!? ho ho ho more jollity!!
Or could have drilled a hole in the center of the stump, cut radiating cuts down the stump from the center (* design from the top). Then let the stump dry out. When dry, stuff the center with a firestarter and light. No charcoal, no firewood - self fueled.
After watching this, I came up with 2 clear decisions. 1.) I would NEVER waste that much wood, charcoal, vegetable oil and 6 days of my life and 2.) Stump grinders make a whole lotta sense. I hired a guy to remove one about that size at my house and it was $150 and he was done in 2 hrs. I drank an ice cold beer as I watched him.
This is an excellent video series. My husband and I enjoyed watching it. Marsh shows patience which is in short supply these days. Marsh is an excellent narrator.
Day 3,567.... the stump is still smoldering. I'm going to take off all the ash and add another 4,987 gallons of vegetable oil and a quarter acre worth of firewood should get the job done. But if it doesnt, trust me it will. In closing don't post 12 part videos until you know it works. In this case these videos were shot over a 15 year period. I hope this was entertaining. Goodbye from Ohio, now I have to go and give mama a sponge bath. Her ass gets a little dank after a few hours. Sort of like this stump that i soaked in 4,356 gallons of oil and roast in the sun these past 15 years.
I was thoroughly entertained. It's like watching a fire burn while enjoying a beer. In my case it's Sangria and watching from the comfort of my couch. ... This guy seems like he'd be an awesome neighbor to have. Thanks for the video!
A word of caution. Be aware that a big stump, say 3 ft diameter or more, can have big roots that can continue to burn underground and along the roots for a week or so. I have seen the roots of a pine stump continue to burn for two weeks and 6-10 feet away from the stump. If you have underground pipes, cables or telephone wires that the roots have grown close to over the years, they will get burned out too, and they can be expensive to replace.
That's true they can start in Sept keep burning tru the winter in wild fire areas in canada deep into the ground scary really because they can flair back up weeks after extinguished
Mr. Maarsh rat, you are persistent. I give you that. When I was younger and $200 really mattered to me, I dug a hole around my tree stump exposing the roots, and very simply cut the roots with my electric $30 chainsaw until the stump came loose and I removed it. I don't remember taking more than 3 hrs. What I learned was that I could use vegetable oil to light my charcoal. I like that. Love the accent.
I fast forwarded 27 times and every time it’s that same stump still there. What’s episode 3....how to remove a granite boulder from your yard with hydrogen peroxide and a toothbrush?
This guy has a lot of time and also entertainment for many days and I admire his efforts to get rid of the stump. Whats exciting with a half an hour solution when you can fill days with a meaningful project. A great video..
Yeah I’ve noticed most of the comments are negative and basically just mean spirited. This dude seems to be happy and not stressing at all. On behalf of this guys efforts I say if people don’t like the video don’t watch it shut up and move the fuck on.
Why are people hating so much on this? I think people should just allow the man to do what he likes, if your not interested in this, just dont watch it?? Just seems like the most normal thing to do :/

Mr Marsh Rat. The note was meant as a sincere message of appreciation for your patient and environmentally friendly problem solving. We all have accents and yours is a tribute to the place you grew up in. Take care
MR with your chain saw cut a couple of opposed horizontal slits as close to the ground dare. Soak up the cuts with your oil and the fire will burn deeply into the stump. I appreciate you videoing your process every little bit helps.
After all, nothing says easy like drilling a dozen holes, repeatedly filling them with gallons of vegetable oil, waiting for weeks as they soak, starting a fire that you must maintain 24/7 for at least a week, burning a cord of good firewood in the process, and probably not even removing the root ball anyways. This is only “easy” if your job description is “ sits on front poach drinking beer, watches and occasionally tends small fire in front yard. Has unlimited time, and cords of wood buck, chop, and neatly stack themselves in his shed whenever he runs low. Such amiable wood.”
Thanks for doing this video, Marsh Rat. I will be using your method soon. Your lessons learned comments show how perceptive you are. Don't worry about speeding things up, I could listen to that lovely accent all day.
Good video! I try to cut the stumps off as close to the ground as I can get. I always keep my used vegetable oil for starting fires and it smells delicious!
Love your positive attitude and outlook on things! Don't listen to the critics, there are plenty of them out there but they didn't pay a dime for the information you provided, let alone the time and energy you spent to help the rest of us. I appreciate folks like you who are willing to let others in on various little secrets in the how-to world. Keep up the good work and keep shining! 👍👍👍
75 dollars to rent a stump grinder from home depot for 4 hours. Or spend 100 dollars in oil, bags of charcoal and logs from the tree that was cut down... Lets not forget the time trying to haul the stuff and lighting the fire... Just 4 hours and $75... Done
hahaha I was going to say that myself! The money he spent on veg oil and charcoal...just another $40 he could have rented a grinder and got it done in a few hours.
I drilled holes in mine, that was growing into our chain link fence and when the kids didn't finish their soda or juice drinks, I'd pour it over the stump. 1 year later, the insects ate it all the way to the ground.
Done that too. It's fun, but not effective. Unless you stop the holes with a heavy piece of steel or something. And then hope that po-po doesn't come sniffing around after the climax occurs...
I personally enjoyed watching. In my neck of the woods you can rent a stump grinder for less than $150 a day. So if you have multiple stumps it's worth it. By the way you're a good man, and you'd make a great neighbor. GOD bless.
I loved this video. I sent it to all my siblings. I laughed so hard. This is exactly how a project I’d attempt would go. I ended up covering a couple of small stumps with some plastic rocks from Amazon and my neighbor thought they were tombstones for my cats.
RUclips isn’t very friendly with stuff like this sadly. When you said it was gonna be fun, I thought you were gonna blow it up. You’re cool though, keep doing....stuff.
it's not the fast way your right. However it is the fun way. I do have a suggestion for you for next time on day 2 of the burn when the stump is smoldering get a shop vac reverse the air flow and point it at the stump what that does is feeds oxygen to the "fuel" stump blows away the ashes and will ignite the stump again and turn it into an incenerator per say but will speed up the process 10 times
I burned out a stump 4 times this size a few years ago. The trick was cross-cutting it in a grid pattern with a chainsaw, then using an axe to form a bit of a bowl for the wood to sit in. I was using full 18” rounds and chopped firewood. One of the biggest tricks to accelerating the process was a leaf blower to fan the coals. Also the roots will cause “fire tunnels” so make sure there are no water or electrical runs within 12’ of the stump.
Gosh howdy, Andy... I didn't realize fire would "remove" a big piece of wood from the ground! brilliant!! BTW, 40 years ago, doing this as a kid in Florida with scrub and water oaks, we used our saw and diesel fluid... Burned within 2 weeks. Never burn pine, and lose your lighter-naught.
You need to change the title of this series to "how to get 30-million views on RUclips, the slow, fun, and easy way". Bravo sir, if you would have added ads to this series, you would have made enough $$ to buy a really nice stump grinder. Lol
I liked your first video and continued to watch the second one. I liked your patience. If my husband sees me watching your video he would call the psychiatric hospital, because we cut a tree but some roots are still damaging the front grass. We live in the city.

how many trees does it take to remove a stump?

it wasn't a cheap shot at all, infact I wasn't even shooting. I don't get the logic of let's remove a stump by burning trees; great use of wood.
Quick tip, build barn around stump so if it rains, fire won’t go out

tstfrd Yeah I got rid of a stump in a day with just a shovel and a axe
I used tannerite and removed it in milliseconds
This is awesome! It clearly takes 3 trees worth of wood and a lake of veg oil to complete but worth it!!
Not to worry my man. I waited 3 years for this to pop up in my recommendations. Not even regretted it.
Oh yeah me too

Haha the videos were ok but many of the comments are hilarious, like a tv sitcom with the wife yelling off camera. HAHAHA.
LMAO
😂
🤣
step 1. cut the tree
step 2. soak tree stump with oil
step 3. use all wood from the tree to burn the stump
Or add a step 1B - Cut another 12" - 16" off the stump before drilling the holes...
I got a great laugh because I couldn't stop watching. This is as genuine as you'll get.

Burning it from the bottom up is faster and easier. You have to dig out the area for your fire, though.

No worries!
Damn john u sure get around.
What about the stumps left over from the five trees you had to cut down for firewood?
stump grinder
lol! yes you burn all of the wood from the tree to get rid of the stump. You come out even still that way.
+Greg Appelgren cakes
Those holes you drilled look like a great spot for pouring black powder into..if you get my drift..
Done that too. It's fun, but not effective. Unless you stop the holes with a heavy piece of steel or something. And then hope that po-po doesn't come sniffing around after the climax occurs...
For an even easier solution, throw buckets of water at it and erode the tree stump over a 12 year course.
I personally enjoyed watching. In my neck of the woods you can rent a stump grinder for less than $150 a day. So if you have multiple stumps it's worth it. By the way you're a good man, and you'd make a great neighbor. GOD bless.

Cut down tree for fire wood then use all the wood to get rid of the stump. Seems counter productive.

it's not the fast way your right. However it is the fun way. I do have a suggestion for you for next time on day 2 of the burn when the stump is smoldering get a shop vac reverse the air flow and point it at the stump what that does is feeds oxygen to the "fuel" stump blows away the ashes and will ignite the stump again and turn it into an incenerator per say but will speed up the process 10 times
Matt Cook hey Matt, ever heard of a leaf blower
Everyone's just watching this in quarantine.
Yall be safe. Cheers
Y’all stay home now ya hear.
Yeah at home in absolute bloody quarantine (wicked Coronavirus)
I'd love to have a neighbor like this, pretty entertaining
Stump grinder companies should pay for an ad in this video.
omg that's hilarious 😂 😃
A few people mention ways to get it done faster, sometimes you're not looking for faster, especially retired guys. To us, every day's a Saturday ; )
I think he was making French fries over the stump there at one point, probably with more vegetable oil
I burned out a stump 4 times this size a few years ago. The trick was cross-cutting it in a grid pattern with a chainsaw, then using an axe to form a bit of a bowl for the wood to sit in. I was using full 18” rounds and chopped firewood. One of the biggest tricks to accelerating the process was a leaf blower to fan the coals. Also the roots will cause “fire tunnels” so make sure there are no water or electrical runs within 12’ of the stump.
This man's a RUclips genius. He just suckered my ass into watching all three parts of a completely useless video.
Juan Alcala complete rubbish lol 😂😂😂😂
Juan Alcala 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Oh the joys of being retired. Two thumbs up!
Thank you for supporting my insanity.
I'm looking forward to you video called 'how I removed a 12 foot boulder from my garden with washing up liquid'.
Gosh howdy, Andy... I didn't realize fire would "remove" a big piece of wood from the ground! brilliant!!
BTW, 40 years ago, doing this as a kid in Florida with scrub and water oaks, we used our saw and diesel fluid... Burned within 2 weeks.
Never burn pine, and lose your lighter-naught.
do you have stock in vegetable oil?
Almost as quick and fun would be setting up a lawn chair and watching it rot.
You need to change the title of this series to "how to get 30-million views on RUclips, the slow, fun, and easy way". Bravo sir, if you would have added ads to this series, you would have made enough $$ to buy a really nice stump grinder. Lol
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
President Stump 👷♂️😂
I've done this few yrs ago and this works 100% I build a shield with sheet metal and kept the heat directly on it
Next time put some holes horizontally and use a leaf blower to increase the heat inside
An easy way? What is the hard way?
That's the first thing I asked myself too. :D
Dig it out/ grind it out with a backhoe or other heavy equipment
A guy with no sense of humor
Well i do remember digging them out with a shovel and a hand saw. That was hard enough..lol
Jared Simpson well I say rent the stump grinder then, fuck the burning it out lol
Took longer to get rid of the stump than it did for the tree to grow
🤣🤣🤣 good one bro.
Lmfaooo
Pmsl 😂🤣
OOhahaha !!!!!!!!!!
I liked your first video and continued to watch the second one. I liked your patience.
If my husband sees me watching your video he would call the psychiatric hospital, because we cut a tree but some roots are still damaging the front grass. We live in the city.
AGAIN RUclips. Why was this in my recommended and why did I watch it?
He was 12yrs old when he started this vid!
G Cunningham day 4235
If I EVER don't know the solution to something, I'll just put a lil vegetable oil on it
Makes things move alot easier
Hahaha! 😂🤣
