Default Hello from FL

Hello,
l live in FLA. l started out in my teen yrs. employed as an engine machinist, l latter went on to try my hand at owning my own shop; which l did for a short period. l worked not only on engines, but also did a great deal of metal fabrication, chiefly for the tree removal ind. I'd made lots of friends in this field, then in 2004, we saw the ind. ignite, as multiple hurricanes ripped through our state, l was quite busy my self, suddenly, as l was talking w/ my customers, l began to notice one common topic, ''we can't seem to get anyone decent to grind our stumps''. l payed little mind to this, until, one day, l found my self on a job site, doing a field repair, there was a yard full of stumps, l was told what it was worth, and that if l had a good machine l could be finished in 1/2 a day, the rest is history. l gathered everything l was worth, ordered a $30k machine and to this day am doing well. l have a '68 105 belly pan l use to mow mine and my grandparent's lawns. l was thinking about getting a wide frame w/ a fr. blade to level mounds of dirt and stump chips, left on job sites... what do you think?
