Part 2: How to grind a tree stump to make room for above ground pool

In this Above Ground Pool Installation series Part 2, I show you how to grind a tree stump to make more room for our 20' ft INTEX above ground pool. Using a TORO walk behind stump grinder I rented from Home Depot, (I also have a link to one below) it was the smaller model so I could handle it by myself without a trailer. It worked fine and true to the Home Depot how-to video it took just over two hours. 
I chose to grind it rather than try and dig it out because it was at least 40 years old and a Japanese maple. This home improvement project rates about a 5 on my difficulty rating from 1-10. 
Pretty dense wood! And the probability of its roots being wrapped around my sewer pipe is high so I don't want to disturb it. Grinder to the rescue!
In my next part in the series I show you how the layout of the pool area is going and I install some drainage.
