Default Why not put an electrical copper wire into the weed whacker?

The little chain saw is also great for pruning trees.


Hi James,
I have (probably) the same weed whacker you have!
Craftsman Model 358.791170 which takes multiple attachments.

Please tell me more about how well/poorly the attachments work because I
only have the weed-wacker attachment.

I never bought the edger or pruner attachments (although I could sorely use
both but I wondered how well/badly they worked).

BTW, be warned, my Craftsman trimmer has the "built with Sim-Pul for smooth
easy starts" (which is a crock because twice I had to replace the entire
starter assembly because the clutch didn't disengage so the weed trimmer
melted the plastic starter assembly).
