Next time you run into over grown curb grass take a spade shovel and run it under the over grown grass to loosen the dirt and grass from the curb first then use your edger you will find by doing this little extra work that the clean up will take the same amount of time but get done much easier. I spent about 6 year doing lawn care in a professional manner. This was what I found to be the best way.
So...speaking as the weed whacker/edger pro of our mom&pop lawn care business, I have to say that Aton edger looks like a real beast of a tool! You left a nice job after you finished...but-I would have to agree with your previous commenter who said you should have gone over it start to finish before you did all that pulling of soda and sweeping, etc. They were right...it's counter-productive for time's sake, but maybe you did it for camera angles and shots? At any rate, good job!
That's some overgrowth there. Just doing that along some of my property using a turf cutter and leverage; glad I borrowed my friend's electric blade edger to do the next part. :)
CHECK OUT my favourite video I’ve made to date! ua-cam.com/video/qCNUsZoTLfA/v-deo.html (it needs some love!) Hey Guys, thanks for watching! Let me know how you would have tackled this one. I’m always keen to learn new ways and efficiencies! Don’t forget to hit that like button for me 🙏
I think a sawzall with a 10 inch blade with a Bena potentially better idea. I've done a few like that with my STIHL edger and weed eater, watching you do it gave me the idea of the Sawzall. I think some people call them reciprocating saws I'm not sure. But hey good job!
@@timthelawnmowerman I never tried it either, never thought of it before watching you do it with that Beast you had. And it popped in my head! You might not want to use a 10 inch blade and yet maybe that'd be perfect just running the blade Along cement curb, i would use a wood blade with big teeth you're just cutting grass and dirt. No more slinging and dirt all over you and fighting that bull. Just cut and peel it off with you shovel! I can't accept the genius of the idea you see I have a secret friend called the Holy Spirit, if he leaves me by myself I'll mess things up! God bless you and yours!
Big tip for edges like this after a rain; Press the edges down as much as possible and make them compact, it forces excess moisture out and "flattens" the soil more over the edge. Then go back over it with the trimmer first to expose the edge; Proceed to edge it. Should make it a lot easier for you if you get thick edges like this in the future.
That atom lawn edger is probably the best designed edger I've seen. That one wheel makes it perfect for the grass that over grows on the gutter edge of the foot path, where the two wheeled edger fails to work. I want one!
Yes, the single wheel makes it great when the kerb and the grass are at different height. Go for the 2 stroke. Mine is the old Ryobi engined one. They are used at full revs as instructed and have more muscle than the 4 strokes for cutting through thick overgrown stuff like this. I had probably eight or nine hundred feet of overgrown edges to do. This old second hand atom did it with ease. I could not have managed it any other way in less than a week full time even if I was much fitter.
Can’t agree with you there. The narrow space between the guard and the blade causes constant collecting of all the debris and you can see this guy is also having to unclog it multiple times. Poor design. Half assed job from the designers of the edger if you ask me.
I think the patent is still in force for these Atom edgers and that's why you don't see others making them. I will say that the 2 stroke ones have much more power. Mine is an old ryobi engined 2 stroke and still works great. They are meant to be used at full throttle in either case. This seems to be revving pretty slow. Still shows what a good job they do of course. Two wheeled vertical blade trimmers are a pain to use on kerbs where the level of the grass and kerb are different like this. These are the business and are available pretty much world wide.
Great video! I love edging and trimming the most. However, that broom you were using was completely wrong for this job. It's too wide for sweeping curb tops, and too soft to push the trimmings into a pile (use a wide stiff push broom to make piles) effectively. You need a broom with stiff bristles about 6 - 8 inches wide, and no longer than 6 - 8 inches long. The ones I've used usually have thick white bristles. Hope this helps and makes your work a little easier!

Definitely. This single wheel Atom is the only way to go when running along a kerb where the grass and kerb are at different level. Also very light to use. They're available in the US. I bought mine second hand and it's been great. For heavy work like this the 2 stroke like mine has more power. The reason you don't see others like this is that Atom have a patent.

Hi tim you should have invested on masport lawn egader it comes with 80 cc engine where the amto comes with a 25cc the masport has adjustable cutter and 4 wheels making it easy to push it is available from mitre 10 for $499 or you can get the 127cc for $620 both have good reliable engines briggs and stratton. all the best jim the plumber queanbeyan nsw .PS why did you leave the green bin in the middle of the road could have caused a accident you could have been sued.
The 4 wheel models are a pain to use when the grass and concrete are on different levels. That's what's good about the Atom. Two stroke ones have much more power and will cut through the thickest overgrowth like this in one pass. My Atom are probably 15 years ago and still work great.
Great work, that was some hard edges. I have used trimmer to cut the lines then with the same trimmer trim under the grass to release it. But will depend on how attached the grass is. Anyway great job, my only suggestion would be to change the music maybe some classical music. Thank you and God Bless you :)
Start on one part and go all the way through it. Don't stop to remove the excess grass. At the end of that entire curb and sidewalk, come back and pick up the leftovers. Stopping and starting takes too much of your valuable time.
Yes and I totally agree. I've been using ATOM Edgers for about 25 years now and that's the best way to go about this particular task. Great video though, cheers from Wooloowin Brisbane QLD.
Hi Tim.. Great name btw.. hahaha.... I am looking at purchasing an Atom 481 edger with the Honda GX25 motor.. I have a back injury and cannot wield a whipper snipper and think this might be better for me as I have a large corner block.. would you say this edger would be suitable for what I want to do.. I am in the inner western subs of Melbourne...

I tried the battery stihl power head but you don’t put a battery in it, it has a cable that goes to either a battery pouch or a backpack and I found it annoying.
It was at that moment he realised, he made the wroooong choice, just kidding mate lol Those edges were insane man, i really hope the financial reward was as good as the personal reward. 10/10 transformation, well done! Ive seen a few jobs like that over the years lol
Hey man good video. Q. How do you find the edging machine on a normal edge with just a few weeks growth. I'm thinking of getting one for my Kikuyu lawn.

I’d need another user to carry that thing mate. As far as the bin goes, I like living on the edge.
The 4 wheel models are a pain to use when the grass and concrete are on different levels. That's what's good about the Atom. Two stroke ones have much more power and will cut through the thickest overgrowth like this in one pass. My Atom are probably 15 years ago and still work great.

Meanwhile, I certainly hope that means you hit that like button 😂
@@timthelawnmowerman certainly did
Thank you Sir 👌
Didn’t notice at first that the odd cut was a hidden driveway, and was confused about the angle. Nice job though. 🙂
Thank you Carter. Appreciate it ✌️
That was crazy Tim. Will this be a regular customer for you? Have a great week.
Thanks Todd! Yes they are now a regular and close to another client so it works out great. Hope you had a good Easter mate!
@@timthelawnmowerman been meaning to ask if you're happy with the Bushranger? This week I'm getting a Bushranger multi with hedge trimmer, pole saw, brush cutter and whipper snipper- can't wait 😁
Mate, I can’t tell you how much I love it! Next video in a couple of days shows what it can do.
You getting the battery or petrol?
@@timthelawnmowerman i opted for petrol. Cant wait for that vid. They're a lot cheaper than Stihl too.
I tried the battery stihl power head but you don’t put a battery in it, it has a cable that goes to either a battery pouch or a backpack and I found it annoying.
Tough job and hard work but look at the great result.
Thank you very much IMM ✌️
Do you have to sharpen your blades each week?
You just replace these blades Kathy.
It was at that moment he realised, he made the wroooong choice, just kidding mate lol
Those edges were insane man, i really hope the financial reward was as good as the personal reward.
10/10 transformation, well done!
Ive seen a few jobs like that over the years lol
Not quite mate! more money from the video! 😂
@@timthelawnmowerman hahah, well that eases the pain a little hey
Esa hierba del borde que es tan dura , no es cesped, en España le llamamos GRAMA y es la pesadilla de todos los jardines XD!
thanks !
Your head cam was making me dizzy. 😂😂😂
Haven’t used it in the later videos, let me know what you think 👌
Hey man good video.
Q. How do you find the edging machine on a normal edge with just a few weeks growth.
I'm thinking of getting one for my Kikuyu lawn.
Great job! I was wondering if you would run into an ant colony...
A couple of times!
Hi mate, great job, may i ask what you would charge for a lawn that is this overgrown?
The streets in my town looks like that, it has grown over into the road, but no one will touch that!
Does the local government not do them?
@@timthelawnmowerman I really don't think they care, but you can tell the owners who do,
It’s the same here ✌️
Holy crap, those edges are really overgrown
Hey Melvin 👋 She’s a regular now so I’ll keep them clean.
@@timthelawnmowerman that's awesome news. Congrats man
👏👏👏
You had to go " rivers deep and mountain high". Well done.
It was an effort that one. I did a live stream there a few days ago. A lot easier work now.
Hey Tim, how much did you quote for this sort of job?
Tough job. I would have finished the edges with the weed eater for a crispier edge! Enjoyed the video
Thank you 🙏 check out the video at 9:45
