How much gas line trimmer power is needed to edge a medium lawn?
Comments (9)Hi, I think that extra power in a trimmer is OK. The issue is weight. I have a Honda and it is 31 cc. I use it with a heavier line 0.105 inch. I have never used a saw blade with it. So long as you are happy weight wise then I would go for a more powerful one. The honda I use to hack weeds too. I saw your other posts too. I think straight shaft is better unless you really like the curved shaft ones. A curved shaft tends to have more wear, because you have to transmit that power round a corner. The other thing I was apprehensive about a curved shaft is that the spinning head is nearer you. When you cut lots of debris tends to be spun off. You want to be away from that safety wise. No matter with trimmer you end up buying I recommend also getting the following items: 1) Eye protection, goggles. Essential in my view. CHeap $US 3.00 Home Depot 2) Ear muff hearing defenders. Cheap about $US 10-16 Home Depot 3) Old baseball hat to keep all that grass out of your hair :) Warmest regards, Mike....See MorePlease Help. Gas Dryer and Gas Heater line pressure problems
Comments (1)Is your condo on its own gas service? If so a service man maybe can bump the pressure a little. We don't know how many BTU your old dryer was or how much more Btu this dryer is. If your gas line is to small you might have to resize it. You will have to have a tech check this out to advise you. later paulbm...See MoreLine pressure for a Tri-fuel gas power generator

Comments (4)Ripping out all the gas lines that are actually *inside* a house (my parents’ old house in SoCal had the furnace in the hallway, the water heater in the garage, and the meters for gas and electric were outside in the back patio area on this small section of wall next to the sliding door - the house was on a raised foundation so the crawl space underneath was great for running all kinds of cables, wires, etc without them being visible, also lovely for resident spiders.) would be a big project and involve lots of holes in things to really and truly have it all taken out. In reality, the lines are probably just capped at the meter so the gas simply isn’t connected for use. Call the utility and have a tech out to look at things, possibly they can even turn the gas service back on for you during the same visit....See Moremishmosh
