Edit: Thank you to everyone for your advice. I did a little digging around the stump and it’s a lot bigger than it appears in the pic. I’m going to go with the stump grinder. It’s $100 for 4 hours. Feels completely worth it. Cheers!

I want to remove this stump. Doesn’t need to be the entire thing necessarily; I just want a level surface plus an extra 6-8”. Bear in mind I prefer to pay in sweat than dollars.

- How much work would be involved?
- What tools would be best for the job? (my inclination was rent a chainsaw)
- Are there any gotchas or best practices to know of?

Thank you in advance for any advice you guys have.
