What is the log structure that looks like it's leaning a lot?

I like my echo string head more then my stihl string head. It can be loaded without taking the head apart at all.
The poly blades aren't a bad idea either espcially if you're cutting a large area and don't plan on running into anything hard much.
The recommedation on more CC's is a good one. My fs91 is great with a metal blade in the woods and for brush but I wish it had a little more power for thick grass.

My daughter bought a house recently and we helped her move. It has a small yard and she bought an Ego mower and weed eater. I didn’t use the mower but I did use the weed eater. It worked a lot better than I expected. I also may buy some of their string next time, it seemed much more durable then any other I’ve used.

Blew the trails off this week. You may note culverts done as well.

I notice you wearing your chainsaw helmet to blow leaves. I honestly have found myself wearing my helmet for things I don't really need it for. I would wear ear protection but the face screen turns out to be pretty nice for a lot of things.

Just a junk, falling down shed.

We use foam ear plugs.
