strimming is the easy part now the hard work begins cleaning it up
I have a cunning plan
What kind of rake do you use? Is there a best way to do it?
We used a backpack blower and blew all the grass into the field next door, look for Hyundai backpack blower vid on the channel
Just bought a new strimmer and watching this video as an excuse to delay strimming the long grass in our garden. The wife is not convinced that I need to view tips :)
Lol, go get it done, very therapeutic
@@WoolysWorld I did half and had to come back for a recap 🤣
@ChocolateTampon have a wee drink too, it's hard work
Thanks for the video wooly. I originally watched it because I wanted to know tips and tricks but the comedy in it is pure gold 😂😂😂
Lol, cheers buddy
Thanks for putting this up Wooly, I found it really useful.
My pleasure buddy, glad I could help
I had a small garden clearance business from 1993 to 2020 . I still have my big stihl fs 400 strimmer.
Nice one, must have been a good machine
Thanks for these tips very useful something I'll always use on the job👍
Glad I could help buddy
Well done, it's fun strumming. Just finished my garden earlier, I like it wild and informal.
Rock on!
Hi Wooly. You have just illustrated how I do my mowing with a brushcutter. Walking a straight line (maintain an axis) and cutting an arc from maximum right to maximum left gives you a definite idea of your progress, besides you're not likely to miss any spots or patches on your way around the field. Good one.
Cheers buddy. Were you thought that or did you figure it out?
@@WoolysWorld I've been doing this since 1975, when I started off on lawn mowers! I started with brushcutters in 1980 and I will be 57 in a few months time.
Good man, it's a great workout
Nice video, some useful tips mate thanks
Cheers man
Good video sir!
Glad you liked it
Nice video brother, I have 1 acre to cut. Its wet ish so ill wait to this afternoon to cut I think. Like the helmet, would be good for chainsaw work too. Thanks for the tips
Cheers buddy , it's a good helmet, perfect for the saw
Nice one mate, landscaping for 10 year.. wet grass at length is annoying finish wise, particularly when it dries and tufts dry and rise.
On a dry day I'll leave a swamp looking like a bowling green with a strimmer boyo 🇮🇪💪🏻
Good man, it's a skill alright
@@WoolysWorld
Tis, many moons ago when I was first starting out I was working with the oul fella.
I spent 2 hours strimming a wet mid length area around ¾ the size of a footy pitch all together, well mate when I tell you that every blade of grass stood back up when the sun came out 🤣
Me father nearly put the strimmer round the side of my head haha.
Nice vids mate I'll sub.
@@EireannSpeaks cheers buddy, where are you from?
@@WoolysWorld
Didn't see this reply at all, Galway mate but over living/working in SW Scotland
Cool, I've family in loughrea , I lived for a long time in mayo but I'm an Armagh man
It's so disappointing that no matter how many grass strimming videos I watch my lawn still doesn't get cut.
Lol, the struggle is real Peter
Does strimming wet grass take longer than strimming dry grass? Also you said roughly 5 tanks of fuel, how many litres does your tank hold? Nice video 👍🏻
Fuel tank is 0.63 litres , wet grass can be hard on a machine, it's dense and heavy
Hi wooly what sort of price did you charge for that job, pre massive inflation prices, like now.
Around £15 an hour
Hi, can you make a video where you cut high and dense grass with Honda Umk450 with nylon head in real time? I have a kawasaki tj53 brushcutter, it is very powerful in very tall and dense grass but after many hours of work I have a severe headache caused by the exhaust fumes because it is two strokes(for the mix of oil and gasoline). I want to change my kawasaki tj53 brushcutter with the new Honda umk450 because it is 4 stroke and the oil does not burn with the gasoline but the Honda umk450 has less power than the kawasaki tj53. In your opinion, It is possible to port the head of Honda umk450 and install a free flow pipe to increase performance and reach the power of kawasaki tj53? Thanks. Best regards.
I have one coming up soon, won't be grass though, but rough stuff, if you look at various points in this video I'm cutting grass in real time
I don't know a lot about porting engines , sorry about that
Maybe your catalytic converter on tj53 is kaput? Sorry, but TJ53 exceeds (Euro) emissions regulations and so does not need a catalytic converter. But it is difficult to say the least, to have power without the fumes, in 2 stroke machines.
Seems like there is some skill involved in getting the cut grass to heap up at your left hand side. Mine doesn’t do this, it all heaps up in front of me until I get bogged down. Is it a technique or more to do with the type of strimmer?
Could be both, how powerful is your machine
@@WoolysWorld I was using a 27cc Stihl.
Might be the power, or the length of grass
@@WoolysWorld Well the grass is very long and very wet. Some of it hasn’t been cut since the beginning of June because the weather has been so wet this year (Isle of Skye, Scotland). I’ll try the 30cc to see if it will make better progress. Thank you very much for your help xx
Mine is 45 cc I think
so what do you then do with all the cut grass?
I used a blower and left it in piles along the ditch as per customer request
Much better ways of doing this as my FS450 Stihl would demonstrate ,your better taking the top off the grass in stages rather than cutting from the soaking wet bottom .By the time you get across with one cut the bottom is drying off and you sort of shred the grass into much smaller pieces which makes it ten times easier to clean up .Normally i cut it small enough the big blower blows it all under the hedges and job done with no waste .
the blower is a handy tool
I never ever collect the grass. I just strim the heap while walking backwards and the grass acts as mulch.
That works
@@WoolysWorld p.s. lovely honda strimmer. 👌
@rosbifle413 you know it's not great , I've never been impressed with it, I had a Hyundai brush cutter before that I feel wad as good if not better
@@WoolysWorld really? That's surprising. I've had Honda motorbikes for years. I'm a bit of a Hondaphile (hehe). Here in France I've got a stihl. Does the job nicely.
@rosbifle413 and I've a honda lawnmower that's amazing, but this just lacks a bit of umph
Wet grass is tough to cut
Sure is
Take the guard off. Much faster
Long gone now
@@WoolysWorld do you take it off ?
@gumusluk05 yes, I use a different system now, the Oregon jet fit system, great job
In that situation, I might use a mower instead! 😅
Lol
Lol
where u get your helmet
It's a Husqvarna technical helmet, great job
Needs a porting and pipe....
Lol, be some machine then
Can I rent one of these strimmers?
Probably , google is your friend
@@WoolysWorld found one shortly after posting - HSS at £40 per day 😁
Nice one!
Why wouldn’t you just use a mower???
No chance of a mower cutting that, it was knee high , soaking wet , tight access to
Less talk and more strim please cheers.
Cheers buddy
No tips or tricks at all 😂
