Anyone got a strimmer for sale???

[Mozza]

Got a phone call about an hour ago off a friend of mine, His boss has 2 business premises that he wants strimming and spraying, Its worth me buying a second hand strimmer to do the work, The jobs mine i just need to purchase a strimmer,

 

 

So im wondering if anyone on here has a fully working, decent (ish), Cheap (ish) strimmer for sale???

 

Cheers

Dont know but it might pay to hire one if the job can be done over a few days,no second hand woes.

Shame your so far away you could have borrowed mine

Thanks for the replys guys, Hopefully im borrowing one off another member for the job but im still on the look out for a decent second hand one as this work might lead to more of the same

give me a call mozza. i have a big back pack brushcutter surplus to requirements, i am sure we can sort out a deal that suits you mate:thumbup1:

Off topic but did you find the back pack strimmer beneficial? I've got a few jobs that involve strimming banks and often wondered about buying one, not sure if it would just be another gadget in the arsenal though?

 

In reply to Mozza: If you just want to borrow one I've got a couple of spares, sure that I can lend you one temporarily if your stuck.

the backpack is great for bankings and big blitzes. not easy being delicate around lawns with it though if you are doing a spot of grass cutting. but it has loads of power. i sometimes stick the saw head on for doing jaggies

I thought it would come into it's own on banks. I tend to use the smallest strimmer I can get away with for the job as it means I end up less tired.

 

Do you get less vibration with the back pack one or is it similar with most of the vibe coming from the shaft?
