Thread: Tips on blocking down a root ball?

Ern have you thought of trying an Arbortech carving wheel on an angle grinder, ther tough as anything.

Good point Allan.

Would only go in about an inch and a half though and it'd be hard to maintain a line.

Pity I'm not on good terms with a radiographer ... put the lump through a CAT scanner ;-}

However you cut it, seal it well, and store it well - off the ground and covered. Examine it frequently, and carve or turn it as soon as possible. I've cut some smaller and less spectacular root balls, and had to pitch some of them when I waited too long while Mama Nature did her deed.

Thanks for the tip Joe.
