Mine cut the lawn...twice, removed 3 large holly bushes, and installed heated grips on the VFR and got it out of storage!
Cool
So if Ellen {his wife} did all that, what did you do?

5.5 horse, 22" string trimmer. $100 off Craigslist. Now she can clear out the scrub in the woods out front and maintain it.
Outstanding
Nice little tool, and a great price
I sure wish I had a gardener

It was perfect at my FIL's house...
It was the right tool at the right place.
It is a mean wacker though...
I bought it for Ellen, but may have to take it over. I'm afraid she'll strip the bark off the trees!

Hope it will be good for trimming under all the pine trees. Getting tired of lugging the old one around on my shoulder.

Very cool Mark!

My wife doesn't do any outside work, and I don't do any inside work. It is a good balance

I tried that, but she caught on quickly that there isn't much for me to do in the winter.
