Farm owning uncle's favourite method of removing tree stumps is blasting them with this mixture of Ammonium sulphate(?) and diesel. If done properly, it produces firewood of the right size for the cooker, heater and open fireplace. As he recounts it the first time they tried it out, they had absolutely no idea of the quantities to used and so tried a bucketful of fertilizer/diesel mix, which was poured into hole in stump, add blasting cap and light (?). After their ears stopped ringing, they agreed it was perhaps a tad excessive as not a splinter of wood remained within the paddock. Nowadays they just use the 1,2,4, handful approach. -- Terry Collins {:-)}}} Ph(02) 4627 2186 Fax(02) 4628 7861 email: terryc(a)woa.com.au www: http://www.woa.com.au WOA Computer Services <lan/wan, linux/unix, novell> "People without trees are like fish without clean water"
