@@juliejarvis7719 if you live in Denmark, I can, otherwise it’s too far away 😃

@@fjb4932 thanks for sharing that, the people that survived those times are a special breed. I will definitely keep that in mind!

@@houseofwonders1 that’s the Rolls Royce of wheelbarrows. Including VAT in Denmark costs 6250 dkk. That’s around 930 usd. I own it for 4 years now, and I abuse it a lot.Its a good testament for its quality.

@@benjaminsagau Good Lord

@@swedishpsychopath8795 that’s a good one, had a good laugh 😆. Thanks!

ahahahaha

@@Ghost-of-a-man it’s hard to break reinforced concrete, especially when there is no electricity on site.

@@benjaminsagau sledge hammer

@@Ghost-of-a-man I don’t keep it I’m my car. Too heavy/the car uses more diesel if I have it full to the brim all the time. I only have few tools inside, just for that reason.

​Too much trouble. And the crumbs and shards are a PITA to pick up and remove. ​@@Ghost-of-a-man

@@TheGiggleMasterP Thank you! I always try to find ways to not break my back. I know people with collapsed discs and it’s no fun at all..

@@heandonlyhe that’s great to hear ! 😲💪💪💪

@@WEEBRIDGEMANOFFICIALEK no, the client decided that way.

@@olderolderman4603this is the house I live in, and it happens I live with my elderly parents, and believe it or not, my mom is one of the most exigent “client” I have. She goes into details even deeper than other clients. My philosophy though is to try to satisfy even the most difficult clients, because those are the ones who make you better yourself. I’ve got clients where no one wants to work for them because they are so picky, and now they only call me, because they know the job is done after their liking, of course, the price suits the job.

@@AlabanzasyAdoración7 if you have access to buy spare parts and you can self change the parts , than it’s a good deal. But you can’t buy parts unless you are a licensed Dealer,at least where I live. When a Stihl machine breaks down, and it’s out of warranty, I usually sell it to export or just scrap it. It does not make sense to use time on it.

@@benjaminsagau i don't have access to buy that. Do you know where I can buy it somewhere else?

@@AlabanzasyAdoración7 try and go on a dealership and try to buy what you need, but remember that you cannot return what you bought. That’s only if you find some nice people who are willing to help you. Maybe tip them well? Or try on EBay ,Amazon, Alibaba, Aliexpress etc. I am sure you can find if you search long enough. Best of luck!

I use a Stihl KMA 130 R It’s a good machine for around the house , but for professional use, I don’t know, I prefer the KM 131 or the HS 82 RC-E. The most money I ever made with the KMA 130 R with the strongest battery from Stihl , the AP 500 S it was 70 % less compared to the most money I Ever made after a day of work with KM 131 R.(I used that day 8 litre of gasoline Aspen 2 Alchelyate Benzin) Even after I payed for the gasoline it was difference day and night. The KMA 130 R will not even start if you tighten the bolts on the knife just a little too tight,the book says to tighten them at 8NM, I always need to tighten them 6-7 Nm otherwise it won’t budge… So yeah, I use the electric machine only on private clients and hourly rate.

It helps if you have the pole trimmer , but it works with the regular machine too,just little more difficult..

Is that a compliment? 😂

​@benjaminsagau yes 😂 I follow some local gardeners from Ireland and I struggle to understand them lol

it's hiberno English similar to Scotland rather than standard English, some areas are more gaelic leaning than others and other places can be hard to understand even by Irish people living in another county haha

The guys driving are subcontractors with own machines. The reason they use New Holland is because the dealer is close by and reasonable priced. I personally prefer Kubota overall, or anything with a Deutz engine. Mainly because of dependence/reliability and easy to maintain and not too expensive to run.Diesel consumption /Service are very accessible. John Deere is great ( if compared to a car I would say a Mercedes)but I would guess for a bigger company with a better economy 😀. The proprietary stuff they have/right to repair and not selling original parts outside authorized services/dealers (that keeps prices really high), make many small Danish companies to avoid them at all cost.

I wish my English would be better, I get laughed at for my accent. So it’s discouraging to do videos using my voice.

I actually thought the same thing. The fact that Denmark has virtually zero resources is a good motivator. By selective recycling, they gather resources in a way, although an expensive way of gathering. The plan is all Europe(roughly 750 million people) should follow Denmark footsteps when it comes to Recycling. Time will tell..

Thank you, it means a lot for me you think that ! 👍

If it’s an old hedge, sometimes it helps to cut it very much, like to the point you almost think it will die ( ONLY IN WINTER TIME).The time for the hedge to get back to looking nice is 3-4 years tough. I had very good results with that on beech(if that’s the hedge you think about) Another tip I could give you is to give special designed fertilizers in the autumn and spring. Also, if you want to have the best hedge in town, instead of 1 cut a year try to do a cut every 2 months. The nicest and most dense hedges I maintain are the ones that are cut multiple times a year. The reason for the hedges dense growth is that the plant always tries to find new areas to grow if a branch gets cut regularly.

That’s great to hear! Hope you will do well! 💪

I will make a video about it, probably.. The juice ain’t worth the squeeze when it comes to TH-cam tough...

?

In the old times, when there used to be a lot of snow, people here in Denmark used to cut the hedges like you say, some even sharper up to 20-30 degrees incline on both sides of hedge, it was done that way due to the snow, if it was trimmed small at the top, the snow would not have place to settle. If the snow settles, the hedge sometimes falls on its side. It’s very rare to get request to cut that way tough. Most people want it level. To the point they bring the spirit level to check before paying. That’s why, I showed the way it’s done in 99% of cases in my experience.(this is the easiest for me anyway)

@@benjaminsagau Spirit level? Holy moly... I'm sure you're paid more than I, but at least I don't have to put up with that lol I see your point though. If that's what the customer wants, that's what the customer gets. I trim city owned hedges that cannot be done with a machine. They don't really care if it's completely straight, they want it done cheap. But I do care. I can't use a rope to get it perfectly straight, but I'm doing my best eyeballing it, taking a few steps back now and then to see if it's straight. And the sides at an angle is pretty much muscle memory now.

I put around 500-600 hours on mine a year, (hedge trimning mostly, but also weed wacking) I noticed That After 3 seasons they are starting to fail to the point of not worth fixing( my personal opinion). It’s nevertheless a lot of hours for such a small engine with that amount of power. On a normal use, for a homeowner, it might be a lifetime tool, if proper Ethanol free Redymix gas is used

Thanks! 😊

If it stays in the trailer, 4-5 hours, When you put it down on the ground max 30 minutes. After that is not workable.
