ShareWhen it comes to land preparation, every project starts from the ground up—literally. In Estonia, one homeowner took that quite seriously when they decided to transform a piece of previously forested land into their future home.
A Forest Plot, A Vision-and a Lot of Stumps
Fortal, one of Estonia’s leading heavy machinery rental companies, has built a reputation on reliability and versatility. Recently, one of their customers documented their journey on YouTube, where they used Fortal’s equipment—including the Dipperfox SC400 stump grinder—to clear the land. Their goal? Prepare the site for a new vacation home nestled in nature.
Rather than digging out stumps—a process that can leave a mess of the terrain—the customer chose to grind them down efficiently, minimizing surface disruption while keeping the area safe for further construction work.
Dipperfox SC400: A Rental-Sized Powerhouse
The Dipperfox SC400 is ideal for rental fleets like Fortal’s. Its compact form and compatibility with a range of machines—from skid steers to backhoe loaders—make it a flexible tool for clients with varied needs and skill levels.
