Congrats. Your much better off buying from a small dealer who cares about you and appreciates your business.

I am looking at a couple of trimmers at Home Depot and Lowes. The Home Depot models are the Echo srm225 and srm230 and the Lowes model is the Husky 223. I am attaching a picture so you can get and idea what kind of trimming I am talking about. The weeds are small and I have tried a brush cutter blade. The problem is the blade is too much for the weeds....a good string trimmer does a good job. Any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Bill

I know that creek very well!! Is this down the street from the Hess station on Orrs Bridge road??
My suggestion would be this!!
