I need a really heavy duty weed eater to trim/keep weeds off of an electric wire surrounding 20 acres as well as cross fencing inside the 20 acres. Tractor mowing will not complete the job well enoug

I have a mid-line Stihl weed-eater. I think it's an FS85. It does MUCH better than the consumer-grade Ryobi I used to use. The string is a heavier duty and lasts longer, plus it carries more. I have

If you have a dealer in the area, I seriously suggest you check out "Tanaka". . . Weed & brush-cutting "weedeater" type machines are their MAIN line of business . . . they have several home-style mac

Maybe I'm a scaredy-cat, but I'd be afraid to use metal blades on a trimmer that would be used near an electric fence. What we used to use was goats. Our pastures had a lot less weeds, and more grass

I've got a Sthil as well and it's great! The string seem heavier than most and does a good job. I've used the blade a couple of times on heavy stuff with no problems. Have you ever seen the chain typ

I have one of the heavier Stihl machines as well. FS95 I think, but I'm not sure off hand. Anyhow, I use the plastic blades on it. I have 4 acres of rough farm land, numerous out buildings, small orc

I'll second that. You need the shoulder strap. Once set right, the unit hangs from it rather than you having to hold it up. The Stihl's wide handles make it easier to control and the cushion grips r
