which blower for pine needles

[RichieR]

I just taken down the Christmas tree or I should say it disintegrated in a heap. I reckon I should get the blower on it. I've got to blow the lot across the Lounge(thick Carpet), through the kitchen, down the passage way(tile) and over the door step(4 inch). Should I look at husky or stihl

Because of the door step, I would go for this from Echo:

Naaa..Billy goat vac is the tool

I think the wife would get more use out of the Billy goat vac. If I had thought it out more thoroughly I should of bought it for her Christmas present and it would be here to deal with the green mountain

Ooooou ..Risky one that. Bought my "Ex" a electric carving knife for Xmas once after hearing here say she thought they looked like a good idea !! Bad move ..Coventry is a lonely place

I used to clean out my transit cab with a backpack blower, open both doors and press the button.

Hindsight is wonderful. ....next year buy a cheap tarpaulin and place it under tree,when you you remove tree simply fold up tarp and carry out.failing that I have a kawasaki backpack blower you can borrow....better use aspen though keep the fumes down

I can't buy her a tarpaulin for Christmas but i combined it with 5 litres of Aspen I think she'd go for that

I bought my wife a torque wrench one Xmas, I can still feel the indentation on my forehead.

 

I wouldn't blow needles across the carpet, sound like a recipe for a long trail of needles rather than a patch.

 

Edit, I've been looking for an excuse to buy a billygoat, maybe we should have a natural tree next year.... .
