    I could have used a 20" bar today. A converted K095 Oregon speedcut bar might find its way on this saw eventually.

    Steve, I am wondering if you have tried to stand any root balls up so you can get the rest of the wood?

    I have. I don't have enough tractor. They slid back into their holes when falling. No hole to tip them back into. I have a plan though...

    My next plan, if the neighbors track loader can't stand them up, is to put a nearly used up semi chisel chain on and get in the dirt with a saw thats not my 241. One way or another, I'm getting the rest of those two oak logs off the stump.

    I've put several chains in the dirt cutting stumps. It doesn't hurt them much unless you hit a rock. Then it takes some filing time.
