Hello all,

I'd like to buy a good weed-whacker, gasoline powered, and with the
ability to add/use optional attachments such as an edger.

What would you recommend?


I'd recommend not getting a "combo" tool. Each function is a compromise. Get
a whacker and if you need power edger, get one of those too.

Sort of like an adjustable/Crescent wench-- sure you can loosen a bolt but
not as well as you could with a box wench or socket...and you won't round
the edges nor will it slip and you bark your knuckles on a hot manifold ;-)


Hmmmm.... good point. I will keep that in mind as I look around today.

Thanks.
