I recently purchased just over an acre of property that joins mine .
The property was clean grass fields until owner passed in 2002.the property has been un touched until now.
Property is full of trees( most poplar) that I'm clearing .I have guite a few large trees ( enough to build my grandkids a log cabin ) .
I'm stacking the building size logs and cutting everything else into firewood
(I know poplar isn't much for firewood but I hate to waste anything) and piling the brush up for a major bonfire
Anyway my problem is there is hundreds of smaller trees 1-2 inches in diameter that I cutting down .
Not wanting to ruin any tires on my tractor or t-rex I cutting them off at ground level. We all know what dirt does to chains
Is there any type of chain that will hold up under this kind of use.
The larger stumps I'm leaving tall enough to pull/dig out with an excavator .
