If that is you, why did you build a stump grinder?
Why not just rip the stumps out by the roots? Then you could carry one stump under each arm to the brush pile.I injured my back in the eighties ripping out stumps by the roots and carrying them under each arm. OK,'nuff of that.If that is you, why did you build a stump grinder?
I'll put in a second vote for a small chain fall. Probably the best and safest way to precision place something heavy.

I have a chain fall hanging in my barn, very handy.
To prevent chain from snagging, a bucket or canvas bag hanging works very well. My buddy picked a planer off his truck with hay forks and a couple mis-matced steel pipes. Near destroyed it when it slipped off. All he had to do was wait a minute for me to grab my tow strap to secure it.
Forks are versatile,good for many uses. Best to plan your lift in a way its safe. Even a couple inexpensive lifting slings and an assortment of shackles will cover most lifts.
