ImageMini Stihl electric pruner , comes with two heads . CEO saw it while buying the new Toro , it went like this “ oh it’s so cute ! “ I immediately knew we just had to have a cute Stihl . It goes with our mini Stihl electric chainsaw and uses same batteries . Maybe test tomorrow. Dan

Lovely yard MG2. In midst of yard improvement (it never ends) on a much smaller scale still let’s me know how much labor is involved to get those results. Polite golf claps to you and the CEO.

Those little electric saws are nice Dan.
I live in the Christmas Tree Capitol of the world and one of the biggest farmers I know went to all battery powered saws- for what he does they do just great!

Thank you Paul . There is always something to do when married to a landscaper! 😂 She had me cutting up pool noodles for huge planters this morning before I got out the Stihl . Will be opening our landscape pond soon plus I will be working on the new Arbor build . Dan

Oh wow! Keep us posted man, that's gonna be awesome!
Yeah, I used to absolutely love to use a chainsaw but now a days I dread it, lol
I've got some storm trees to cut up/buck up - however ya wanna say it. Be good wood for the camp fires/fire pit.
And I really dread mowing......mowed for the first time this year, yesterday. Done a good bit of weed eating today. Thinking very seriously about a new mower. I've got a Cub Cadet Ultima 50" deck......bought it new 3 years ago I think - it's a great little zero turn but, I've got probably 5 acres that I now Dan and I'm getting tired of that 50" deck man. Thinking about a new Ferris with at least a 60" mowing deck...lot of money though.
But, I spend a helluva lit of time mowing right now.

If you don’t mulch at least a sixty would be my choice , especially with the amount of acres. I would compare prices of Ferris commercial and suspension models . You lucky dog ! I have mowed three times already ! Wife is great help all kidding aside . She likes her little part of yard to mow and she weed eats better than most buddies I know . What I dread is power washing all our concrete , don’t get me started about edging sidewalks ! :zany Dan
