New sub here. I have my eyes on it but havent pulled the trigger just yet. That would be perfect right now to cut the edges of my new reno out front. Kill me to keep a low cut and then beat it up with a weed whacker. Nice job putting you video together.
Thank you for the complement. It's an investment and I'd recommend waiting until you can find a $300 or less deal. It might only be a savings of $10-$30 but that is money you can put toward your next bag of fertilizer or pre-emergent.
@@smallsouthernlawn6909 nice! I have had the bigger blade for brush clearing untill my tool got stolen from the back of my work truck while giving a estimate. But other then that it seems to do the same just the opening on the teeth.
For me it does the job as good as the string trimmer did previously. I have a few boards that have warped at the bottom and that causes a little more of an issue but if you have a straight fence line, I think it would be a good tool for the job.
I’m currently using a Kobalt 80V trimmer that I’ve had for a few years. These IDECH heads should attach to most straight shaft trimmers. It comes with a few adapters to accommodate the most “normal” drive shaft configurations.
I haven't tried that yet. Not much of that around my house but when I go over to my friends house to help out, I'll give that a shot. I know that they have different blade sets for this system and I think there is one made for thicker grass and light brush.
as soon as i heard three hundred dollars and have to sharpen the blades, i said nope, not me, my electric string trimmer can do it better and cheaper, and no blade sharpening needed. lol lol
Good video, i can see the positives in this but also the negatives. First is price, thats a lot of string replacement. Second is you cant clean up weeds or grass growing in cracks or or stress joints in sidewalks. The real truth is it doesnt do anything more than a string does except cost alot more money. The upkeep on sharpening and greasing seems like it would be a pain and really its not much different than just putting a regular cutting blade on your weedeater and that cost $35 . I can see where some could see it to be efficient for them but from my point of view, i cant justify the cost.. Thanks for your view on the product and i hope it works well for you though...
Thanks for the feedback on you thoughts of this product. I'm actually finally able to get back to doing videos and was planning on doing a "1 year later follow-up" on these. I'm not sure it will be what everyone is expecting because I'll be bringing up a few of the points that you did.
I love mine. There is a little learning curve but it makes my life easier.
nice job!

Yes,I also agree very awesome piece to have in your lawn game👍 second set for me💯💥💣
I love it! I first saw it on Lawn Tips channel and started my research. Have you tried any of the other blade sets/sizes?

How well does it trim the against the wooden fence?
It’s always the biggest issue in my yard.
Thanks 🤘🏼

What type/model trimmer do you use with the rotary scissors?
I’m currently using a Kobalt 80V trimmer that I’ve had for a few years. These IDECH heads should attach to most straight shaft trimmers. It comes with a few adapters to accommodate the most “normal” drive shaft configurations.
Thank you, nice setup 👍
Does this work with Ryobi?
This video may help more with that question. I know they work on many different platforms. th-cam.com/video/yyLRyKmYNLY/w-d-xo.html
Have you ever used it in tall thick grass, blackberry or thick brush?
