navypoppop Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 I had one of these type edgers and gave it to my son when we went full time rving. It is a Craftsman with a Briggs&Stratton engine. It does a fine job on edging like your photo shows your "clean shave" on your lawn. I swear by them for trimming and better than a weed wacker turned sideways. Every new season I would clean, replace the oil, new spark plug, new air & fuel filter and new blade and we were good to go. The concrete sidewalk or driveway would play hell on the blades though if you keep getting too close. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted August 13 Author Share Posted August 13 Yes, as I mentioned I have two of them I was going to buy new blades for both of them couple weeks ago at Home Depot. They did not have any or I couldn’t find them, but these days I notice lawn service people are using a different type like I said I don’t know how you can get a straight cut with them, .. bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladislav Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 17 hours ago, mowerman said: Looks like the time to start shaping it up. Or about that. You may be using a side grinding wheel with a corner grinder at the 1st stage. Way not that smooth as an orbital sender but much more progressive. Just get off one small spot and make a check out with a ruler or so. Than get to a neighbouring area if needed. Possibly is working with an orbital sender a bit to see big hills than grind them off with a grinder and do a test smooth up with the orbital sender again. And so on. Sorry for the spiders to be killed. I sure mean much more sorry for the time killed on that deal. I don't know though if they're poisonous or not. 1 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted August 18 Author Share Posted August 18 Ingenious suggestion I have a DA and an orbital and high speed grinder was very heavy, sanding disc and yes, we have a bunch of black widows having their way here and there. I’m just going to do the entire perimeter behind right with the frame is 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted August 18 Author Share Posted August 18 Over to mention, I also have an air operated DA sander and a body file which will probably be using a bit towards the end of coarse thats a ways off Bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted August 18 Author Share Posted August 18 Plus a hand sanding board for the final probably mainly for Phil or primer. We were talking about with Dean. I’m sure I’ll be using that somewhere along the line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmackpaul Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Does this no fiberglass require gel coat ? Looking a lot less like a hole than it did a whole ago Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted August 18 Author Share Posted August 18 well, the gel is probably what you’re talking about fiberglass resin I was gonna try to work on it a little bit tomorrow but I think it will be Friday to pick up 36 grit sand paper. I will probably get it tomorrow but I got too many things going on. Tomorrow Also Friday off with no plans so I’ll probably continue early that day and thanks for your interest Paul lol bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mowerman Posted September 7 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 7 Special thanks for you Mecho!!!!! My head exploded when I read your post on deans tread I think I’ll be shaping some of the fiberglass tomorrow morning photos coming soon …. As time consuming this mess can be it still beats trying to land overpriced replacement sheet metal… and again it is a fun challenge bob 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
