How long did it take to clear the 4 acres? I have 3.5 acres to clear this weekend. It's a field that has about 4 years of growth with 3-6 inch pines scattered over ir. I'm wondering if I should rent a loader like this instead of the mini excavator.

Definitely go with a loader, for it took roughly 8 hours to do this project

Thanks, I was going to ask the same question

[@briangardiner1015]

The way they can find you is follow the path of destruction. At one time I wanted to get a 953 with a ripper and a 4-1 bucket. That was before excavators got so popular.

I was wondering when you clear, what do you do with all the brush?

[@abramzimmerman9089]

Typically we burn as much as possible, and bury the remaining stumps, preferably 3 to 4 feet minimum below the surface.

[@Sumbull185]

That looks satisfying. But leave some of the big trees.

[@billsmith9610]

That is starting to look like a big 4 acres.

[@abramzimmerman9089]

The acreage may have shrunk, first it was 3,soon it grew to 4.
Looking more like 5 till it was completed lol

[@billsmith9610]
