I think "Weed Whacker" was a brand back in the late 80s that made line trimmers cheap and catered to the home owner. The name seemed to stick to all future line trimmers.
I'm just glad I finally found someone that holds the trimmer on the same side I do. I notice most people hold it on the right side. I can swap but always go back to left
Love the edge it pro I watch one of your reviews on them and had to buy them. I love them cause you don’t have to have a experienced string trimmer. I just tell them to run it along the sidewalk, and at first it’s awkward for them but man does it speed edging. I bought the golden edger which I’ve used the one for 2 years and still haven’t changed it, but we edge with that the first mow and then just use the edge it pro! Great product! If you haven used or heard of the golden edger look it up and try it change the blade once every 2 to 3 years.
I watch with pleasure, how every place is getting clean and beautified. In every bad there is something goood :) Amazing job, keep it up! Don't forget to put some fruit trees and to change your colors!
Technical industry term is "string trimmer" and hedgers are "hedge trimmers." 🤷♂️ but as long as the helper doesn't grab the chainsaw to trim the lawn, we're good 😂
Whipper snipping! Just kidding, I call it either string trimming or weed whacking but I had an English customer who called it whipper snipping. Glad to see you're back to posting regularly!
Great video Jason, here in Wisconsin we call them trimmers! I can’t mow right now because it is too wet and we are under a state shutdown with the virus. I run the Stihl Kombi units so all I have to do is switch the attachments out so for flowerbeds the Stihl bed redefiner works awesome!
That's aweosme man...luckily me working solo and me being outside not in contract with people I am still able to work but sorry to hear you can't. Did they say when you will be able to go back out?
Just a thought on the weedwacking those small areas in the back of those buildings between drain pipes. You might want to try spraying a growth regulator on the grass so you may only have weedwack it every 6 to 8 weeks and then respray and repeat. It looks those areas would be a pain to trim. Great video and I look forward to B27i videos.
I am very interested to know if you have a particular string that you like to use in your string trimmer? The string you are using seems to cut very well with little breakage. Thanks!
Over the past couple years I have been trying a variety of brands and so far the ones I like have been Husqvarna string and Echos Black Diamonf string. I recommend the .105 since its last a little longer
Ya there was mulch...I choose a more fine mulch for all of my clients for this reason so large chunks are not getting flung everywhere...but stuff like branches and pine cones still fly ha
It depends...if there is a lot of rocks or loose debris I wont let it touch the ground since it will fling up more debris . But if it has been edged weekly then I will drag it for sure, as well as on concrete edges.
Hey Very nice video.. we just call them weedeaters around here, but I love the attachment on yours. Seems like it would be great to keep from getting tangled up in chain link etc. and make it easier to edge with. do you have a link for it?
Have you looked at a “Darwin’s Grip”? I have several for my trimmers and edgers. It sure helps my back after a day of trimming! I was watching the video, noticed how you have to lean over a lot like I did.
What is that too guard that you are using on your weed eater never seen one of those before I would like to get one to keep all this grass off my face and clothes
What up Bro !! 😎 Are you guys still working in your area? Things are getting Crazy With This TECATEVIRUS here in VANCOUVER WASHINGTON / PORTLAND OREGON (after 2 years watching ur videos I decided to Comment for the first time in my Life) lol 😝
Yo no hablo inglés pero si usted puede usar el traductor se lo agradecería.estoy impresionado con el trimer que tiene como un disco por dentro y por fuera,que es esa pieza y como se llama y donde puedo conseguirla.gracias y me gusta su trabajo
Southern California guy again... No guard, long .095 gauge line, at least a 26cc-ish motor and SKILLS. The longer pull on the string doesn't kick as much rock and crap and holds a line better. But you need the power! I'm using the Shindaiwa T262. Besides the 30cc motors, this one has a clutch that can hang with my long line. Try long line, no guard with low RPM in your roses on weeds. So choice. Weedeater or weed wacker.
Yup maybe it just our terms for it lol but mostly weed whacker though. Love the vids by the way. Only reason I bought my edgit pro is because of your vids on it and proud to say that my buddy and I are the only people here that have it and people are amaze when we used it for edging.
I have a couple 94s and echo 2620t. If I am in more of a relaxed mood going at a casual pace I use a 94. When I am in “asswhoopin” mode as we call it lol, I grab the 2620
@@AmbrosLandscapingInc It was like virtual reality as I watched gravity pull the mower into the danger zone. I felt like I was actually on the machine operating it. I wanted to stop and back out...up the slope before it ended up making a mess of the lawn.
Question big dawg, I k ow you can not answer for any other youtber, lawncare business. But I was wondering as to why you are the only person I see on yt that still uses the edgit pro? It seems like it was a lawn fad but you still use it. Why?
I personally love the tool since I got it, and i dont work with the company or get paid in anyway at all. I think the reason why a lot of other youtubers dont use it is because it does take a couple to a few weeks to get use to it so they give up on it to early. And when companies send use string trimmers to test out and demo it's not an universal fit which stinks....just a couple things I can think of but there are many more of course.
Wow umm ok....well the edit pro is plastic and is a guard...it doesn't cut anything. This trimmer still uses string, there is not metal blade on this idiot. Wasted your time and looked stupid doing it...congrats

Are they called "String Trimmer" or "Weed Whackers"? or something else? Let me know below!
What brand is your sweatshirts looks good!
Both but technically more accurate is, " String Trimmer".
We Called. string Trimmer, weed whacker, weedeater, or GUIRO in Spanish . 😅
whipper snipper = australian

Sounds great. Good to hear your voice. Been a long winter.

Stick or Line Trimmer.
It was great to see you in Hattiesburg.

Great video, Thank you for sharing
Your welcome 👍🏻
Awesome Video Jason! Starting the year off Strong!!
Thanks brother! I just need to keep it strong 👊

Ambro's Landscaping Inc. At first we could work but they passed a law today for non-essential business to close until April 24.
Dale Nienow make sure you look into it. my state did the same, but the list they put out has Landscaping and outdoor maintenance as essential.
Hate to hear that Dale. Most state consider Lawn care a essential business and allow them to keep running in this epidemic.
Guns and Ammo They updated the list we are good to go!
Whipper Snipper 😅🙌
I called it edger or string trimming some people called it whip whipper. great video boy
Haha never heard Whip Whipper before 😆
Looks great, beautiful property. Bummer you lost your guy. We call them string trimmers. In Australia they call them “whipper snippers” lol.
Ha seriously that's awesome! Ya he was a great employee but I'm glad he off to do even bigger and better things!
Thanks for sharing,in the area with the drainage problem a reel mower might be useful instead of the weed eater.
I call it a weed eater lol. Honestly, I think the weed eater does a nice job. I use it this way too. Good video! Subscribing👍
Thanks man appreciate the support 👍🏻
Great video, thanks for the tip!
What brand of boots do you wear?

Called a whipper snipper in Australia 👍
What kind of String Trimmer Line do you use? The stuff i use i would have to keep bumping because the line would wear out or break off.
It's a line from Stihl (its neon green) I forgot the name of it but it's the .105 instead of the .95 to help with it not wearing down as much.
Ambro's Landscaping Inc. Thank you Sir! I will look it up.
We've always called them string trimmers here, Ontario Canada
Unless you're teaching someone to hit weeds. Then you tell them, remember it's called a "weed whacker" :P
Whats the name or model of that 360 strimmer guard you have . Not seen them before
Thank you I prefer Line Trimmer my self
Was that mulch between the grass & beds? I didn't see any mulch getting flung around or thrown into the grass. Bravo
Ya there was mulch...I choose a more fine mulch for all of my clients for this reason so large chunks are not getting flung everywhere...but stuff like branches and pine cones still fly ha
There was certainly mulch being flung into the lawn. Keep doing that and the lawn will suffer.
Were you using the string line to edge line up the grass or the circular looking head guard?
I use both...I use the string line mostly in flower beds like this video and I use the Edgit Pro for hard edges like concrete sidewalks and roads
Osmo cameras are good for for vlogging just whip it out and away you go - nice edges
Can you share the link for the head you’re using.
When using the edgit pro on beds. Do you let the wheel run on the ground for better results or keep it up at the grass level?
It depends...if there is a lot of rocks or loose debris I wont let it touch the ground since it will fling up more debris . But if it has been edged weekly then I will drag it for sure, as well as on concrete edges.
What line are you currently using?
Tundra Guy currently using the .095 Echo Black Diamond String
Hey Very nice video.. we just call them weedeaters around here, but I love the attachment on yours. Seems like it would be great to keep from getting tangled up in chain link etc. and make it easier to edge with. do you have a link for it?
Great video keep doing coming but hw much would have you charge that client or any clients for refine edge thanks for the reply back
In the UK we call them Strimmers
Ha dang that's funny! I've never heard that before
Ambro's Landscaping Inc. I guess it’s just a shortened version of string trimmer 😆
Well Here in Australia we call them whipper snippers or brush cutters

Hello, what kind of weed whacker are you using and does it come with that awesome cover when you purchase it? Thanks!!!
The trimmer is a Stahl KM-94r and the disc attachment is the "Edgit Pro" that is sold separately. You can pick it up on their website or Ebay
@@AmbrosLandscapingInc Thank You!!!
What is that gaurd?

Ambro's Landscaping Inc. Thanks For the Reply Homie ! Take care and don’t forget to get your Maruchan (Murciélago 🦇 Flavor) Bro! 😎
I've never seen that type of guard on a line trimmer before, what brand is that? Never mind, Edgit, $80.
Are you left handed? The reason I'm asking cuase I am. And i grab the weedeater same way you do.
Lefty right here man 👊 ha

Weedeater or weed wacker.
Here in Alberta Canada, my buddies and I call it grass trimmers.
Ha never heard that one before

Also, your trimmer looks like a beefy Stihl but sounds like a Craftsman lol. Probably just the mic.
Believe It Landscape & Maintenance its the fs94r it’s the 2 stroke. It’s not like the km131r that’s the calved engine. They have crazy power.
Ha ya the FS94r isnt the most beastly sounding trimmer...but its lighter! Ha
I have a couple 94s and echo 2620t. If I am in more of a relaxed mood going at a casual pace I use a 94. When I am in “asswhoopin” mode as we call it lol, I grab the 2620
My area they are weed eaters
Weed whacker, string trimmer, line trimmer. All of the above.
Always called it a weed wacker
Put some back into it!!!
All front baby all day 🤘
What’s the name of that trimmer head
They’re called strimmers here in England
2:25 mark...mower slides down wet slope and recovery is cut from video. Walkers don't hold well on hillsides.
Ha if that mower slide down and I had to recover it that would be in the video I wouldnt take that out 😂 I would get more views with that in it
I did get stuck with it later on in the day when I wasn't filming ha it was a pain in the ass to get out

Line trimmer for some reason always stuck with me
That's another one I for sure have heard as well 👍🏻
Hope you're are charging for that redefining edge it looks so good, the customer would not feel the need for anything else. very good job!
For something like this I dont charge extra it since its just a quick fix basically and doesnt take much more time to do it
We’re did you learn how to use a string trimmer your so fast
Ha thanks man just been doing it for a few years so have gotten faster over time
We call them weedeaters in pa
dude.. the disk thing on the trimmer... is the disk cutting?.. or is that just a guard?... or is it alien tech, and the trimmer is invisible?
It just a guard and a guide...but does help with airflow
First!!!!!!

It’s a weed eater in PA haha
That small strip of grass reminds me of a man with a receding hairline. Man! Just let it go!
