that is very interesting I never saw anything like that,, I did buy a lapidary saw with a lot of accessories for 20.00 I really didn't know what it was.. but after researching a bit, I found out it was for cutting rocks.. I wound up selling it on ebay for a little over 200.00

Fantastic job! However, if you don't have such a vacuum, it is also possible to open the roots with the high pressure machine used for car washing. And in the end I would cut those roots from the stump with the same saw you have or better a chain saw.

@@stevoj8959 I also thought about this in relation to the drainage of water with earth from the stump. In my imagination, this could work well in the case where the stump is not on level ground, but at least on a slight slope. We dig the ground to the depth of one shovel around the stump and a groove in the direction of the slope. And then we wash all the rest with a strong stream.

I sold a bunch of those new when I was a Chevrolet salesman. Changing spark plugs, in the late 1970's, my stepsister's Ford Maverick with a 302 needed changing. It's really tight at the shock towers and those two the electrodes were almost gone and the other 6 had normal wear. Someone in the past only changed the ones easy to get to and didn't change the one's at the shock towers. I've found a lot of half assed messes in the 45 years I've turned wrenches.

I see two other options to soldering the shutoff valve. 1. Solder a MIP fitting that takes a FIP shufoff valve. That way, in the future, just unscrew the old valve, and screw in the new one. 2. Use a Shark Bite shutoff valve. I have installed two of these and the ease of installation is worth the little extra cost.
