    @python3574 3 місяці тому +10

    Having done hundreds of hours of the exact same kind of clean up work with fencing, the hay spear is definitely a good choice. A grapple is most definitely a PITA because the fencing gets all tangled up in it. It only took me a couple of hours of fighting that before I made myself an attachment that has double spears on it spaced about 3' apart. It's easy to get a BIG pile of wadded up fencing with it and keep it from rotating around if the bulk of the weight is above the spear, like it will do on a single spear.

  • @bryangiffin9695

    The area you cleared looks nice.
    Take some of the brush you pulled out with dirt still on it, pick it up as high as you can with the tractor and drop it a few times to knock most of the dirt off so when you burn it, it will burn better.

    That brush hog is so awesome to watch. Chips brush to the ground in seconds! I'm surprised you didn't shake the dirt off those roots as you pulled them up. So much soil lost, but you will prob need to backfill anyway. After you install your fence, have you and Rebekah decided if you want to plant a living privacy screen inside the fence along the road? Arborvitae are low to no maintenance and make great windbreaks. Your property is looking very tidy!

    if you make a hole to bury the ash. you could scrape off the topsoil. dig a hole and use that dirt to fill in your new holes by the fuel tank. , push the ash in the hole and cover with topsoil. seems like that would fix all the dirt and ash issues.
