Anybody ever try one of these?
and is it worth the time/money?


DEWALT DCST920B 20V Lithium Ion XR Brushless String Trimmer

Will be used for basic trimming around the yard and maintenance.

I have. They work well for trimming and edging. They don't work so well for actually cutting a lawn. They really shine for very small lawns were noise is a problem like an office building.

Ohhh

Ok

I dont have a lawn...its just mainly for weeds and small tufts of wild grass that i need to keep down. And weeds growing along the drain edge.

I cant use poison as my cat eats the grass, so i need to trim it every so often to keep it down.

I thinking hard about making this investment....

I used a 48 volt (?) Toro. It was highly rated by Consumer Reports magazine and it was good but it wasn't as good as the straight shaft trimmers that I owned.

BUT it was near zero maintenance, no fumes and quiet.

The electrics are great to grab and go. The Sun Joe brand was well reviewed, too. If you can get one of those at a reasonable price with a warranty, it may be worthwhile.

I have one like this. I shipped it down but I have never seen one for sale locally. It works well for coconut and banana leaves but its slow going on the heavy wood and stalks.

anybody ever use polyV as a concrete sealer ?

but gonna try after the december pressure washing

that company should have product...might be expensive

[adnj]

I use PVA to seal wood and concrete prior to painting. It sticks well to surfaces that aren't quite dry so I use it on walls that have had some water damage and then prime after that. I had a mason that would add it to mud to waterproof interior retaining walls and it worked very well.

I also like it on floors because it keeps the dust down before you tile. I mix PolyV at about 5:1 and brush or squeegee it on. I use an old brush because it will dry quickly.

We used PVA in the states to waterproof decks and fences but those were getting refinished every one or two years.

i could see it working on walls etc, but not on a floor that would have to endure friction and maybe the occasional power wash
you will need something more like a urethane type sealant
