Garden Strimmer Tip
When you run out of line for your garden strimmer, put 15/20 metres of 100lb mono on rather than paying 15 eur for the "flymo" line in hardware shops.

Re: Garden Strimmer Tip
All's great but if its autofed and the line wraps around the head because of incorrect tension it will snap the head clean off.
