Advice on cedar problem please

[Mick Dempsey]

I guess we should get the terminology right. 
It’s a strimmer if it uses nylon cord. 
A brushcutter if it uses a blade 

Problem is that most have interchangeable heads.

I had no idea they were so recent tbh. 
Live and learn.

There was a plague of them iirc, and they got pissed off and hungry.

Yes our first year of wildfires, the heath was ablaze both sides of the road to the hospital so I had to use the back roads to see my younger daughter who had just been born. There's a story linked to that photo of the gorse being baled on the heath I recently posted.
