@@leedawg5208 What scarifier are you using? If you have the ability to buy/hire/borrow a verticutter, I'd start there for sure. They are designed to cut vertically, slicing through the runners.

@@thelionlawn I have the Ryobi one you had up on the wall in your shed. Shall have a look into the verticutter. Cheers

@leedawg5208 The Ryobi is good, but can definitely get tangled. One of the downfalls of battery gear, they're just not as grunty as petrol stuff. Good luck with it, hopefully you can find one to use. 🤙

@@1972prem Thanks mate - Will focus on that for next vid. 🤙 Appreciate the feedback.

@@Hahehhwgajshah72726.. Ha! I wish... No shares, they're just one of those products that work as described. Lol.

@@AJ-Lawn Wasn't sure on installing a pool fence for 3 - 4 months of the year use, considering the camper trailer lives there the rest of the year, but it worked out alright 👍

Looking good man! Really need to work out my next steps for liquid ferts

G'day - Yikes, -20!! That sounds unpleasant. Haha. I certainly don't get any temps even remotely close to that here, so i've not experienced it myself. However, LinkTap have a section on their website that covers off on winterizing the equipment in temps that drop below -1, and that includes removing them from use. So unfortunately i'd suggest you'd have to remove them, take the batteries out, and store them inside during those sort of cold months. Have a look at www.link-tap.com/ and check the FAQ section for more info. Hope that helps! 🤙🤙

@@SOVEREIGNDesigns There are definitely plenty of options out there for that sort of money, that's for sure.

@@Striperman Hey Legend - good to hear from you! Hopefully your season was good - your insta photos are looking excellent. 🤙

@@thelionlawn Thank you. It was a good season even with the lack of rain here the last 3 and a half months. I know you know what that is like. Looking forward to your videos.

Hi mate, when I got mine, the 36v was the only Ryobi that had been tested and confirmed. I'm not sure if they've got a collar for the 18v yet or not. Perhaps have a look at the Yard Empire website and get in touch with them to confirm if they've had anyone test the 18v? Best of luck. 👍

Here's hoping! Would like to have it looking shmick by Christmas. Fingers crossed!

@@Hahehhwgajshah72726.. Thanks for the feedback mate - unfortunately I had already filtered a chunk of their song out. They were in full swing today, that's for sure.

@@antonyv8171 Haha! Glad to be a part of your nostalgia! 🤣

You won’t get that lovely sound, power or depth of cut with any of the electric toys mate.

@@theaussielawn Thanks legend 🤙 I didn't really know what to expect with it, but I'm stoked!

@ your probably looking at a 1990-1993 model too btw. Its had a new donor motor as green chassis had black top and gray chassis has the orange top motors . Both green / black and grey orange are early 90’s mowers

@theaussielawn Ah sweet. Thanks mate, I tried to search on the part numbers I could find for it, and all I came up with was a super vague "1978 - 1988" for the numbers I found. It would make sense it's a bit of a Frankenstein, given where I found it. 🤣

@@Hahehhwgajshah72726.. Yeah for sure, it's not for everyone and I get that. 👍

@@Hahehhwgajshah72726.. Appreciate it mate! And yeah I'm with you, the need for mass production has overpowered the desire for quality workmanship in most industries, I'm afraid. The companies who still make quality products that last, are being swallowed up by the "use, abuse and replace" movement.

@@1972prem Hey mate, its an AE-054 Utility. According to the only identifier I could find. When I googled that, that's the model that popped up, so I assume that's the correct numbers. 🤙

@@hermits-cabin8334 Yeah I've noticed mine doesn't like being loaded up any more than a basic amount. So if it's spinning away and comes to a section that is particularly thick, it'll cut out, then come back on, and sort of stutter its way through. On normal running though it's fine. Mine just seems to not like a sudden load-up when it's already running.

@@thelionlawn Mine never used to do that though..I have only just started noticing it..guess its back to bunnings..warranty

@hermits-cabin8334 Yeah 100% worth getting changed over. The Ryobi warranty process is so easy. If you have the 18v one, I'd angle to swap it (even with a bit of extra cash on top) for the 36v one.

@@thelionlawn everything i have is 18v mate..I cant see me changing over too soon unless all my tools call it a day lol

@hermits-cabin8334 Yeah that's fair enough. Once you get into a specific system it's hard to justify swapping for just one tool. Good luck with the warranty, hopefully the replacement works like it should!

@@zacj63 Thanks legend 🤙

@@shaneallen4042 Definitely not... Hopefully one day, but for the time being, that little thing earned its keep!

G'day mate - the struggle is real with getting some of the mowers low enough, that's for sure. Some of the Masport mowers drop down quite low though, so give them a look if you need something that can do it all from start to finish. 👌. A lot of the Plant Dr stuff can sit on the leaf, but I usually give it a water, because I only apply it with around 8 - 10 litres in my sprayer, so a quick hit with the irrigation afterwards is perfect. But, I think they recommend if you use somewhere around 15 litres per 100m2, you wouldn't need to water too much in. 🤙

@@Martty_4 Yeah I'd say blades fall under the "consumable" category. Unless it broke super weirdly due to some fault? If it's just through wear and tear you might not have much luck.

@thelionlawn thanks mate for replying ✌

@@mkii9110 It's a weird position - because I think the Liberty handles are underwhelming, and the Stirling's look out of place. There had to be a happy medium somewhere they could have used.

@@Ryanm13988 For sure mate, definitely the better option than trying to vacuum like a Muppet like I was... I've since replaced it with just a good Jet Blower, and haven't missed the vac function. But definitely a place for the blower vac combo. 🤙

@@grayfox87kurt26 Haha! Good luck, legend. Fingers crossed for a new mower AND continued happy marriage! 🤣

I'm not sure, to be honest. Might be worth a look to see if the end of the extender has the capability to fit the correct collar?

Thanks Legend 🤙

I'd like to see more brands bring rotary scissors into their lines, for sure. It's such a great tool for edging.

True. Same can be said of most retailers though I suppose. The customer service at Bunnings when you're trying to find something is usually garbage, lol. When they're trapped behind the trade desk and can't run off, they've been pleasant and helpful enough 😄

Thanks Legend, glad to be of some help! 🤙

They were only available for a short run here, too. Either they weren't a good seller, or there's something else in the works I suppose?

He's a good helper!

To be honest, they both felt pretty similar in that regard. I didn't notice one being particularly harder or easier to manoeuvre.

Hi mate, yep 100% can see the vac being useful for other conditions, like yours, and hard surfaces (narrow paths beside houses, decks, tennis courts etc). The vac worked as intended, it was just my specific application that didn't use it to it's potential. And yeah, I think the 18v stuff is drastically underpowered and underperforming for lawn care. The wood/metal/shop/home tools are all excellent uses for 18v. But I reckon (for what my opinion is worth) 36v or more is required for mowers, edgers, hedgers etc. I'm currently considering a swap to Greenworks or Ego for the 40v (36), and 60v(56) equipment.

If you can believe it, the price has increased again. It's now closer to $8,000. They've surely priced themselves out of a heap of potential customers.

Thanks Legend 🤙

Wow! The price just keeps increasing!! I wonder whether it's supply/demand, and they know they'll get away with it, but I absolutely agree, that's no longer in the realm of reasonable for most home users.

@@thelionlawn mate I want one and could probably afford it but I don't think I can justify it especially once you factor in $800 for a battery and charger. Hopefully the major tool brands start to develop and compete as you mentioned yourself.

It still slips on dry grass. Not as severe, but it does still do it. I think it's a weight (or lack of) issue.

@@thelionlawn That makes sense, I think I saw a video where the guy put a large weight on the deck to make it heavier.

Yeah... She's not great. I replaced mine with the 36v Jet blower jobby, and I'm absolutely stoked with that one.

G'day legend! Glad to hear the system works well for you! The scheduling side of things can get a bit full on, so I only use it really during a renovation of when I've got a specific reason for being super strict on timing. Still a great system tho, and glad you're making the most of it!!

Oh perfect use for it!

Thanks legend 🤙
