    The Greatest tip for String trimmers Ever !!

    I prefer the fixed line heads over the tap n go types because they are lighter in weight allowing the trimmer to have more power to drive the head

    It isn't nonsense , it makes a huge difference. If you don't want to bother, don't do it

    It will work just as well, just keep the spool in a bucket of water

    You should definitely try this, just remember you have to keep your line soaking in the water all the time when your're not using it , don't buy cheapo kmart/ ace hardware line. I've never tried it on anything smaller than 080 line. I use only 080, 095 and 105 line

    I never use tap n go heads. All my trimmers have fixed line (insert) heads on them. they are quite a bit lighter and thus you can have more power to cut and operate at a lower rpm. but when I started keeping my trimmer line submerged in water boy was I surprised !

    don't forget, you need to submerge your trimmer line spool now and keep it in water all the time except when you are using it. I use a 1 gallon plastic bucket with a snap on lid to keep it clean, (the water and the line) and I keep the package spool that the line comes on in there too. It won't...

    Really , no comments ? If you keep your trimmer line in a can full of water you'll see for yourself what a difference it makes in how long the line lasts. I don't know why it works but When I tried it I was amazed and now i keep all my trimmer line under water when I'm not using it.

    Ok , If you take your spool off or the fixed length short sections of trimmer line and keep them submerged in a container of water when you aren't using the trimmer you will be absolutely amazed at how much longer your trimmer line lasts. I mean up to 10 times longer ! I prefer to use a fixed...

    Buying a gas pressure washer, need some buying recommendations

    My shop has a huge hot water washer but the water source is so crappy you can't use on anything that you don't want to leave a yellow stain on.. Yes the hot water pressure washers are but you can't use one on anything polished , chrome or painted. Beside , it's enough work to keep the shiny side...

    Buying a gas pressure washer, need some buying recommendations

    Neither unit is listed on Stihl web site, all units that are are electric, and what the heck is with all those specs that I don't understand ?

    Buying a gas pressure washer, need some buying recommendations

    Thanks for the reply D'Animal, I plan on using it about 2-4 hours each week. I'm buying it to use on my new log truck, pressure washing the frame, bunks etc. and using it with one of the relatively new foaming canon attachments on the paint , wheels and fuel tanks. Yes, a Kohler motor would be...

    Buying a gas pressure washer, need some buying recommendations

    Hi all, I want to buy a gas powered pressure washer to wash my new Log truck with a foaming canon nozzle, It needs to have a 50' hose preferably with a hose reel on the unit. I want something reliable with a good pump and probably a Honda motor ? and one with tires. What are your experiences...

    I need a handle for a Stihl 011AVT (top handle configuration)

    Well I've repaired my handle on my Stihl 011 using PC7 epoxy. It is truly an amazing product. I've used it in the past to repair lawn mower engine cases, striped out machine threaded holes on chainsaws and weed trimmers and other projects.
