Craftsman 32CC two cycle trimmer IMO buyers alert??
Comments (0)OK this of course my opinion of what I have encounter with this model trimmer, so take it for what it worth?? Most identifiable would be spark plug is located at the bottom instead usual models with piston pointing up and spark plug on the top. When I encounter this model the first thing I do is remove the plug and look down the hole for signs of something (needle bearing) banging indentations in the top of the piston. If is see this I know it junk right off the bat. After continue use if it will still run the crank will seperate from the piston making the rope easy to pull and clanking sound. This usually can be verified by watching the piston cause it don't move. IMO buyers should be aware? seen several of these that crank needle bearing come out and with spark plug on bottom guess where the needle bearing goes? Some may fall out the muffler or when you remove the plug if you are alert enough to see it. First sign is funny clanking sound, hard to start or no start, which the needle destorys the jug and piston. This style trimmer IMO is too heavy awkard to use and has design flawed needle bearings and with piston pointing downward. Maybe it will fail before it breaks you back down??? Either way your going to pay IMO....See MoreHD stepping up their game...
Comments (32)Re: the bee issue and neonicotinoids: the US Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service published a rather lengthy paper on Colony Collapse Disorder in January of this year. It's worth a read if you are interested. The long and short of it is that there appears to be no one single cause for the disorder but most likely a combination of factors. It is interesting to note that pesticides - specifically the neonics - are not rated very highly as a possible factor: "A survey of honey bee colonies revealed no consistent pattern in pesticide levels between healthy and CCD-affected colonies when pollen, bees, and beeswax were tested for the presence of 170 pesticides. The most commonly found pesticide in that study was coumaphos, which is used to treat honey bees for Varroa mites.............Several studies that reported a negative impact on honey bees by neonicotinoids relied on large, unrealistic doses and gave bees no other choice for pollen, and therefore did not reflect risk to honey bees under real world conditions. Nor have the studies demonstrated a direct connection or correlation to CCD." They go on to say that "there have been scientific findings that imply that neonicotinoids have sublethal effects on honey bees at approved doses and exposures. ARS scientists and other researchers are looking into whether such sublethal effects may correlate with CCD or other bee health problems and whether they could be a contributing cause of CCD" (emphasis mine). This is a discussion - much like the reality of global warming - that will have vigorous supporters on both sides. Do I believe what the ARS is telling us? Yes, I would trust them above a lot of other sources. Honey bees are critical to the agricultural industry and represent a multi-billion dollar impact. It is in their (and our) best interests to explore the problem as thoroughly as possible to determine the cause and arrive at a solution. I have much more faith in the veracity of the scientific community than I do with a lot of alarmist speculation based on junk science. Honey bee health and CCD...See MoreThat No Level Game part two
